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.

This is one of my favorite camp ground. I wish the campground bathroom were cleaner and had a light inside. Overall it wasn’t bad but not the best either.

Hiking trails are close to the campground. Silver Run trails offer several hikes within walking distance of Basin. The Basin Lakes trail is a little more challenging for us old folks but a beautiful hike. The campground is very well kept by the camp hosts.

We love this campground as it's remote enough, close to Basin Lake and Silver Run trails, and has a creek running through it, but also close enough to town if you want to get supplies or have a meal. Great camp hosts who keep it very clean. The downside is that we occasionally encounter a rude camper who runs a generator all day long, from 8 am to 10 pm. Last time we left a day early because of this. I feel like this happens more here because of the proximity to town. Next time I'll consider staying at a more remote campground. This behavior needs to be discouraged. We come here for the peace and quiet of nature, not to listen to the hum of a loud generator.
