About White Earth Campground

White Earth Group Use Shelter is located at White Earth Campground, just east of the town of Winston, Montana, on Canyon Ferry Reservoir. In 1805, the Lewis and Clark expedition passed through this region. On July 22, 1805, Sacagawea recognizes the country and assures the men that the three forks of the Missouri were of no great distance. This news gave the expedition hope in the anticipation of soon reaching the headwaters of the Missouri River.

Number of accommodations: 32

We enjoyed our time there. Would be nice to have a better place to dock boats. The hosts were very good doing an excellent job.

This is our 4th time at the White Earth campground and by far the best experience we have had with a camp host. Josh (I apologize if I got his name wrongs - younger man from TX) was incredible.

He was available when needed, polite and approachable. He kept the bathroom clean and the garbage taken care of.

We host an annual family reunion of about 13 camp sites and swell to about 75 for our big picnic on Saturday.

We will rebook for next year and hope to see Josh back again as well.

We love this little campground! This year the weeds around the campsites near the water were quite high - a little weed eating would have been nice :)
Beautiful weather tho and lots of fun beach time. Thanks for keeping it open for us weekenders!
