I had a great time camping here. The camp hosts were very helpful. I particularly enjoyed fly fishing in Rock Creek which is adjacent to the campground. There were rainbows and brown trout. Also the nearby town of Red Lodge is very nice. A good outfitter, several good restaurants, a coffee shop and grocery store.

Lovely primitive campground. Sites are a good distance apart. Next to a beautiful mountain stream/river. Hiking and biking nearby and a 10 minute, breathtakingly gorgeous drive from Red Lodge. Friendly camp hosts (2023 season)

I wish all campgrounds could have hosts like you had at Basin and Cascade this summer. They are friendly and make contact with each camper. The campgrounds were very clean. Ronda and John are awesome!!
