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.

Amazing campground! Tall pine trees and hammock camping along a creek. Beautiful. We will return. The creek made for some amazing views and amazing sounds. Loved it! We loved the proximity to various mountain trails and views. Hike the Basin Trail! Very memorable.

We stayed in site 9 which was close to the river. We really enjoyed the the sound of the river and the view of the surrounding mountains. I hiked some of the area but stopped due to not having any bear spray ( i saw recent bear droppings). The only negative thing was we are really close to our neighbors and there really isn't any privacy.

I don't know if it was the heat or what. But restrooms smelled very bad and needed more cleaning with all the people that were camping over the weekend. I have camped at Rattin Campground and those restrooms are spic-n-spam. Other than that it was fine. Host site looks like a homeless camp.

Excellent stay. This was the first weekend of the season and scattered snow drifts were still around. Beautiful location. Easy to get to (paved road).
