Well run, clean BLM campground on the Madison River with spacious sites at a great rate. Water and vault toilets available. Shade is a bit sparse, though.

Someone stole my spot and couldn't get a hold of the host, there was one remaining spot I was able to use thankfully

The campground was nice but our particular site, 9A, stated that the max vehicle length was 45 feet, which was incorrect. We had just enough room to park out 15 foot trailer, then the bollards prevented backing in any further. We parked our truck next to the trailer.
The restrooms were clean, the hosts were nice.
