Peaceful and quiet surrounded by lots of wildflowers, wildlife, and the pleasant aroma of sagebrush. Parking area is reasonably flat. Remote subdivision on a 4500-foot ridge, 10 miles from Columbus exit 408, off of Interstate 90. Your camping spot is near the road for easy access, but the road is private and dead-ends just beyond my property, so traffic is very minimal.
I aim to treat all my guests as if you were a long-time friend. I try to be your personal concierge, so anything you need or want to know, just ask.

While the area is known for its abundance of wildlife, it's important to be aware of the potential dangers that come with being in bear & moose country.

Even though somewhat marred by some from northern fires, the views were still beautiful. Very quiet and peaceful. Justin was great, very flexible when a problem with our rv caused us to be a day late. He was very helpful in getting us situated so our camper was level.

This site is amazing! The solitude and views are breathtaking. Long ride up on gravel roads with views the entire way. Justin is very welcoming, friendly, and informative. The starry sky is huge and the sunset is right out your front windows.

Great views, and great host! Justin worked with me when my trip had to be altered due to health and allowed me to flex my stay by a couple days. He’s a fantastic host and will make sure you’re settled and check to see if you need anything.
If you’re there in August, be mindful of the potential for wildfires in the mountains, Justin kept apologizing for the smoke covered mountains, but I absolutely loved it. The light was special as the sun set from the smoke, but I love moody sunsets. I love experiencing the outdoors in all its varying degrees.

Absolutely beautiful place to camp! Our host was so responsive and kind. Easy to follow directions, smooth arrival process. The views from our site were perfect. It’s definitely a quiet area so I wouldn’t recommend for loud groups. Voices definitely carry in the mountains so we encouraged our kiddo try to keep the noise down. Would love to stay here again!

We had a great 5-star stay at Justin’s Hipcamp! We arrived late and he stayed up to show us to our spot. He was super friendly and kind, gave us info about the surrounding area, and even helped us figure out how to get to our next destination. Really appreciated the hospitality! 10/10 we would come back and recommend him to our friends and family.

Justin’s land held a peaceful & mostly private safe space (some neighbors I never heard- and you may share the 2 other sites with someone but in my case I had the evening to myself). Stunning views, personable & respectful host, simple instructions provided, would easily stay again.

Everything was as described, fantastic views, clear directions from Justin the host. We were unable to fill up with water before arriving, Justin went out of his way to get us some water.
The views are incredible, would highly recommend, thanks again for your hospitality Justin!

What an absolutely wonderful campsite we had! Justin met us when we got there and showed us where to go and then left us to get settled. Later, he came down to see if there was anything we needed and gave us a lot of good information about the area. We were there for three nights and he made sure he stopped by a couple times every day to check on us, couldn’t ask for a better host or a better location! The views are tremendous and the night sky was beautiful. Thank you again Justin and forever in your neck of the woods will certainly come back!

We were driving from Glacier National Park to Yellowstone via Beartooth Pass Highway when it became clear it was getting late and we wouldn’t make it to our planned dispersed campsite. As we exited I-90 into Columbus, we searched for nearby options and found Justin’s place on HipCamp, just 15–20 minutes away. Perfect!
After booking, Justin quickly sent us clear directions. His property sits on a ridge with beautiful distant mountain views. Although it was rainy and overcast during our stay, we could still see some of the scenery. Be sure to follow the directions Justin provides. Google Maps worked for us, but it’s best to confirm your route matches his.
The road includes a stretch of unpaved driving, but we had no issues in our Class C motorhome towing a Wrangler. Justin was responsive, friendly, and helpful throughout. If we’re ever back in the area, we’d absolutely stay again. Highly recommended!

Justin was extremely friendly and welcoming on our arrival. The views of the Beartooth and Crazy Mountains, especially sunset and sunrise, were spectacular.
Justin mowed some paths down the draw on his property to make walking easier. Very cool!
