Summary

Holter Lake Campground is well-maintained and offers a beautiful setting with clean facilities, spacious sites, and friendly hosts, making it a popular choice for annual family gatherings. Many guests enjoyed activities like boating and fishing, with special praise for the helpful camp host, Kevin, who went above and beyond to ensure a positive experience. Some minor concerns included site accessibility and occasional noise, but overall, visitors expressed a desire to return due to the campground's charm and cleanliness.
This was our first trip to Holter. The greeter at the gate was very friendly and the grounds were well kept. The only thing we did not enjoy was the wooden guard rails throughout the camp sites making backing in a hitch trailer a struggle.
Fantastic! Beautiful campground- so well taken care of. Please get help for your groundskeeper though, he is working so hard and could use an extra set of hands!
The campground and Holter Lake was wonderful as usual. My family has been camping and boating at Holter for the last 60 years. A few complaints. The main one is having to reserve a spot online when there is not cell service at the campground. The 1st night there were over 20 open camping spots. The next complaint is the camp host had the radio blaring in the office Garage all day and night. In the morning opened the garage door and it was even louder. This was right next to the sign that states the quiet hours. I would like to request that the yard light at the docks be fixed as it is very difficult to find the dock and dock your boat at night. Also it would be very nice for the fish station to be useable. The campground was very clean, the lawns were nice, the other campers where very nice, friendly and respectful. We had an issue because we rented a spot at Holter Lake Campground when we wanted to be at Log Gulch. This was my error but was not easy to correct. This online only camping makes it very difficult for older people who don't use computers and have difficulty with phones.
We left that same night. I didn't read all the rules, we bring our dogs, and one of the campers spent one night said his dog barked a couple times and next day was told he needed to figure it out because they couldn't have another night of it, plus dogs couldn't swim in lake, it was too crowded. We just aren't into that kind of camping.
Holter Lake Campground is accessible via Montana State Highway 200, which is approximately 15 miles to the south. US Highway 287 is also within a 25-mile range, providing further access to the area.
