A great spot to put your feet up and enjoy the views and lovely weather. If you boat or fish you'll be extra pleased. We come here every year from Alberta usually on our way to southern states. It is a great place to hang out and enjoy. One year we kayaked both the Gateway To The Mountains and down the river from the dam which was a good adventure with high flow. The little gas station close by in Wolf Creek has everything you'll need - I like the goat milk hand lotion made locally in MT and pick up a few bottles each trip. The drives in and around the region are gorgeous and if you need RV repairs or more - Helena isn't too far. We also stay in Choteau coming down from Glacier.

Love Holter...however, sure disappointed that Log Gulch is closed. Staff said they couldn't find anyone who had gone through the 2 to 3 mo training needed...Really....so instead...close it? I would have thought another solution could had been figured out. Sad for old Montanans that have camped there since childhood.

Very fun weekend. Cold in early June but still fun to be in the mountains and alongside a lake.
