The campground is well maintained with a good blacktop road leading all the way.
It is quiet with well spaced sites and trees.
We drove all the way down the road that dead ended in hiking trails. Beautiful scenery all the way. Right before the campground is a short hike to a small lake that used to be a resort.
The best part was the Beartooth Highway. A must see trip.
We also had dinner in Bearcreek right down the road. They hold pig races during the summer on Thursday thru Sunday.
Hope to camp there again.

Nice campsite along the creek, with lots of great hiking options nearby and Redlodge within a quick drive. I’d highly recommend this campground .
