Court Sheriff Campground is located at the very north end of Canyon Ferry Reservoir, 30 mi east of Helena, Montana, along Montana Highway 284. Court Sheriff Campground offers year-round access to a wide range of recreational opportunities. Court Sheriff Campground is named for the Sheriff family. In 1865 Court Sheriff moved into the region from the state of Illinois to Montana to work the mines. Court Sheriff first worked the mines in Diamond City, then hired on as a carpenter to help build a wooden flume for the Magpie-Gave Hill ditch. In 1875 he opened a general mercantile to serve the miners east of the Missouri River at Cavetown. He moved to nearby Canyon Ferry in 1880, and by 1883 had established a general store and later added a livery stable and two-and-a-half-story hotel.

Summary

Court Sheriff Campground is highly praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and friendly, attentive camp hosts. Visitors enjoy the beautiful location with easy access to the lake, making it ideal for families and outdoor activities. While some reviews mention noise and a few issues with bathroom conditions, the overall consensus is that it’s a favorite destination for campers.
I was very excited to get spot number 38 but when I arrived, someone was already set up in that spot. It turned out we had both been booked in the same spot. I was not offered a refund but was offered spot number 10 which doesn’t having a camping spot but does have a fire pit and picnic table. I declined in the end but the camp host of the evening was very polite and apologized numerous times. I don’t blame him but am frustrated that the spot I had booked was double booked through the website.

Camp ground is nice. However, do to the cost to cancel most people just do not cancel which leaves the campground with a number of empty spaces. I counted 7 empty spots yet site shows nothing open. That should be considered
Wonderful park! Lovely and spacious campsites in a beautiful setting. Outstanding hosts keep this campground spotless and are friendly and helpful. We are repeat visitors that love this place!
