Little Beaver Creek Ranch is in the heart of western Montana, between the historic towns of Trout Creek and Thompson Falls. The ranch is a combination of an historic and working remnant of Montana’s ranching past, and stunning natural beauty - - wide-open meadows with unobstructed views of the surrounding Rocky Mountains. Over 4000' of Little Beaver Creek provide the boundary to fenced & cross-fenced hay fields with a backdrop of the Bitterroot and Cabinet Mountains. The scenery is exceptional and area resources are astounding. Finding refuge on the ranch, wildlife is plentiful and diverse. The nostalgic, red 7,200 square foot, 7-stall barn serves as a functional centerpiece to the property and as a solid scenic landmark.

5. Idaho Panhandle National Forests

546 sites · Clark Fork, Idaho

It doesn’t get much prettier than the Idaho panhandle. Situated between Big Sky Country of Montana and the vibrant evergreen fields of Washington (which seriously look Photoshopped to the naked eye), this forest holds more than half the state’s surface waters, and wilderness vibes are guaranteed by the deer, elk, bear, caribou, and wolf populations who call this spot home. Moist maritime air comes in from the Pacific coast, and historic cabins dot the landscape. Near Spokane and the border can get busy on the weekends, but with this much acreage you can always find seclusion here. Make sure to check out at least a portion of the bikeable and walkable Hiawatha Trail—weaving 15 miles through tunnels and across high steel trestles in the Bitterroot Mountains, it’s been called one of the most scenic stretches of railroad in the country.

Primitive camping with no water or trash service, pack in / pack out. There is a portable toilet. Located in the Alberton Gorge on the Clark Fork River, this is a premier location for the whitewater enthusiast. Take advantage of the class II, III rapids in your kayak or raft, or even surf. Alternatively, enjoy the relaxing Sandy Beach just a few minutes walk from the campground to swim and gaze at the beautiful argilite cliffs.

7. Wild Farm Camp

44mi from De Borgia · 1 site · Tent, RV · Libby, MT

Stay on the edge of a working family farm (Dragon's Breath Farm) and the surrounding National Forest where the human world enmeshes with the wilds! The farm sits on 17 acres (with only 1 acre in production) with a 1906 log cabin. The small Silver Butte Fisher River runs just off the edge of the field and is the home to trout, moose, beavers, bald eagles, mink, elk, kingfishers, ravens, deer, and the occasional bear, lion, or wolf pack. We are between the towns of Libby and Kalispell, each known for limitless outdoor activities including hiking, boating, fishing, hunting, skiing, climbing, paddling, foraging, & riding. There are surrounding lakes, rivers, mountains, forests, and limited cell phone coverage. This is the place you come to to disconnect to reconnect. To yourself. To the forest. To the rivers. To the wildlife. To the Land. To something lost but not forgotten. With few neighbors, the property is quiet except for birdsong and elk calls. We are only a mile off the highway and rarely hear a passing truck. If the season is right, we can even offer a selection of fresh produce grown right in this field or take part in one of our foraging classes and learn to find food from the wilds. Whether you are passing through and just need a safe space for the night or want to stay awhile and immerse yourself in the land and location, you've found the right place.

Named for a sprawling, sparkling body of water that just appears out of nowhere off the highway, Coeur d’Alene River Campground and Picnic Areas are a mind-boggling expanse of beauty, color, and water sports (swimmers, tubers, sailers, parasailers, and seaplane pilots bring your sunscreen). Giant, dense pine forests rise up along the shores of the flat riverbed, with gorgeous homes high up overlooking it—be sure to take a scenic drive through the neighborhood. The nearby historic town of Wallace is a great place for antiquing, bars, diners, and just general mountain charm, while the town of Coeur d’Alene itself has a very Scandinavian vibe; active and modern, yet very remote and relaxing!

Do you like fishing? How about fishing in the mountains surrounded by forests and killer campgrounds? Well then you’re gonna love Dworshak Reservoir; it not only houses the largest steelhead trout hatchery in the states, it also has killer views and an impressive dam. If fishing isn’t your thing, you’re still in luck as there’s plenty of hiking and biking trails throughout the forest, as well as a sick swimming beach and water galore to bring your sailboat or try your hand at water skiing and tubing. Camping is steps away from water views too. Dworshak is sure to become a quick favorite; nothing fishy about it!

We’ve stayed here twice so far with friends for a quick weekend getaway. Nice flat site, easy to set up camp and lots of trails to explore on SxS. We went out riding to the Bedroom Goldmine Bar, huckleberry picking and checked out Glideen Lake. Close to town too for going out to dinner or walk around town.

We loved staying at Robert and Mary’s ranch! The property is so quiet and beautiful, it was a great retreat. The spot is very private and we were lucky enough to walk the land and get a tour. Robert and Mary are very friendly. This was probably our favorite Hipcamp property thus far!

Nice Green Area to set up and take in the panoramic scenery. Lots of room to spread out. Porta Potty and Water Available.

This Hipcamp provided a peaceful night in a beautiful location. We did take advantage of the electrical hookup. It was 50 amp with great voltage. Water was offered, but we didn't need any. Lisa was great at communicating and was there to guide us to our site. She was very personable and interesting to talk to. We stopped in the historical mining town of Wallace close by before going to the Hipcamp and were glad we did. We wish we could've stayed longer.

We camped for one night here in our 13' RV on our way home. We wished we stayed longer. The single spot was well identified and quite away from the house. The simple outhouse was clean and not smelly. There's a small bench set up near the river, as well asba hammock. We saw deer in the morning and evening. Very peaceful and beautiful.
