Located in Big Arm, Montana, Wild Horse RV Resort is a newer RV park that has individual owners and the lots are larger than a typical site. We own Lot 1 and it is FRONT ROW! No camper will block your views. This lot is also slightly larger than the others at about 60' x 100' and can accommodate large recreational vehicles. Wild Horse RV is a wonderful community of owners who love being near Flathead Lake, Glacier National Park and all things Montana! Big Arm Marina is just across HWY 93 and you can bring your boat and rent a slip (if there is availability), have dinner and just enjoy amazing sunsets on the lake. From our wonderful camp spot, you will have a beautiful view of Flathead Lake and the surrounding mountains. It is just so peaceful! Our layout is designed as a Pull-In Site for Motorcoaches. Hookups are on the LEFT side if you pull in... 5th Wheels and trailers will also work. You can pull in and disconnect. You are allowed to pull your truck through the middle of the aisle between the lots. However, once you reconnect, you will need to back your rig out unless no one is in Lot 2 and then you can pull through. Our site features wonderful lake views and we have full hook-ups (water, sewer & electricity - 50 amp) for your convenience . We have a gazebo with a gas-fire patio table - If you use the gas fire patio table, I do ask that you fill it before you leave so the next guest can use it. Dogs are allowed but need to be leashed and due to fire restrictions no wood fires are allowed (only gas). Also, HOA rules state no tents. ***There is a community area with a grill and pickle ball.*** ******NO wood fires are permitted due to fire restrictions.

This property sits on a ridge line that ties into the Mission Mountains. Very close to town but definitely in the wild. Our views span the entire length of Flathead Lake and the Mission Mountains. A clear day shows the beautiful Glacier Park in the distance.

Waterfront serenity tucked into the timeless beauty of an old homestead. Gods Country. A place where the past lingers gently, offering quiet moments and a slower rhythm, steeped in the spirit of simpler times. The property has a railroad track nearby with trains running several times a day. There is no whistle, but if you are a light sleeper the rumble may be a disturbance. 23.5 hours a day are incredibly peaceful. The other half hour is a nostalgic sound track, echoing the spirit of American industry that helped build a nation!

Quiet and private, a very lovely spot that is easily accessible. Beautiful views from the ridge! Craig is an excellent host and has wonderful pups that add to the experience. This is a great basecamp when exploring Polson and the Mission Valley.

Pretty little spot with a clean porta potty and beautiful sunset view. Lots of birds and deer! The trains didn’t bother me but I was in a camper van. Spotty Verizon service.

Lot 1 is absolutely wonderful! 10/10- THIS SPOT IS A HIDDEN GEM. Great site with tons of room to spare with our 44ft toy hauler. Its an intimate, quiet park with friendly neighbors. It includes a picnic table and 6 person fire table with a beautiful view of mountains and Flathead Lake. There's a community shed with tons of games, pickleball net and equipment. Flathead Lake and surrounding cities are wonderful and Glacier is a little over an hour drive.

Weekend Trip to The Orchard On The Ol’ Homestead

Easy to find spot. Right off the main road we were taking to Glacier National Park the next day. We had it all to ourselves so it was super peaceful! There is a train track super close with a pretty active train, but we loved it. Clean porta potty and nice picnic tables.
