These are newly developed sites (2021) nested on the back of our property about 200ft from our house on a dead-end road. We have rural neighborhood vibe, with a 2 mile scenic paved walking path nearby. We have newly planted trees and shrubs, so not much afternoon shade.

There is enough room to easily pull in and then back into your spot. Ideal for Class-A motor-homes, fifth wheels, tent trailers, travel trailers, pick-up campers and self-contained van campers. Additionally, 1 tent is allowed at each site. Because there are no bathrooms we are unable to accept TENT ONLY camping at this time. Both campsites have full hookups including artisan well water, septic, with 50 amp electric on site #2 and 30 & 50 amp electric on site #3. Garbage receptacle is located by the east side of the greenhouse. Plenty to see and do in the Flathead Valley. Lots of wonderful local restaurants, pubs, breweries and wineries. Tons of trails to hike, rivers to raft, lakes to boat and parks to stroll. We have a list of our favorites, don’t hesitate to ask!

Welcome to Robinson's Roost! My husband and I bought 3 acres of land and built our retirement home 16 years ago. We have chickens, fruit trees and a giant garden, and have 4 campsites in the wooded area of our property. We are excited to offer bathrooms and hot showers! Each campsite also has its own picnic table and there is a communal fire pit. We have a beautiful piece of property with the Columbia mountain range in our back yard. Great views, wildlife, garden, chickens. Situated on a dead end dirt road that is very peaceful and quiet. Hiking and water sports are also close by and we are only 6 miles from town. We are 20 miles to Glacier National Park, where the beauty and activities are endless. I have plenty of shopping, dining, hiking and activity ideas while visiting. We look forward to your visit!

The best camping in Lone Pine State Park, MT guide

Overview

About

Convenient to Kalispell, Lone Pine State Park is a day-use area that remains open year-round for visitors. The elevated location affords panoramic views of Kalispell and the surrounding Flathead Valley. With 7.5 miles of trails and year-round access, the park is a convenient haven for hikers, mountain bikers and snowshoers (with snowshoe rentals available). Equestrian riders also have trail access and all visitors will enjoy the visitor center with a gift shop and tours explaining the local ecosystems and wildlife. Ranger-led interpretive programs are offered throughout the year for school groups, residents, and non-resident visitors. Take advantage of the experts and facilities that make this park unique.

Notable campgrounds

Lone Pine State Park is open for day-use only, but you can camp nearby at these spots.

When to go

Year-round access makes this a great option for all seasons. The park receives more visitors during the summer and fall months when group picnic rentals are available and the trails are clear for all uses. In winter however, snowshoeing is popular on the trail systems and the visitor center remains open for shopping, interpretive displays and just as a place to warm up before and after hitting the trails. Spring might be more difficult as melting snow removes the option for snowshoes but also creates mud and slick trail conditions.

Know before you go

  • The park borders large areas of open space, public lands and wilderness. While not common in the park itself, encounters with grizzly bears are possible. Carry bear spray and always leave it better.
  • ADA-accessible facilities, flush and vault toilets, water and group rental areas are available in the park.
  • Pets are welcome but leashes remain mandatory.
  • A unique archery trail offers visitors an opportunity to practice shooting on various targets.
  • The park is open year-round from 8am to sunset.
