Basin Montana Campground is a well-maintained, peaceful retreat, ideal for escaping daily life with its clean facilities and friendly camp hosts, John and Rhonda. Guests appreciate the beautiful surroundings, ample shade, and proximity to hiking trails and Rock Creek, making it a favorite spot for families and repeat visitors. While some noise issues from generators and occasional odors in the bathrooms were noted, the overall experience remains positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

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!!

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 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.

Very pretty atmosphere. Creek runs through the campground. The campground host Rhonda was so nice and brought us the fire wood so we didn't have to carry it. The other campers were helpful when our grandson was stung by a bee. Definitely a place we will return to.

Great campground. Clean, spacious, quiet, and the hosts were very friendly and helpful. Fire pit, picnic table, and food lockers at each camp site. Very close to hiking trails and a small fishing lake with easy access.
