Camping Near Glasgow, MT, US: 12 Best Campgrounds 2025

Explore the wide-open landscapes of Montana’s Great Plains on a camping trip near Glasgow. A shining jewel in the region is Fort Peck Lake, about 20 minutes south of town. Campgrounds dot the northern section of the lake, offering plenty of opportunities for boating and fishing on the water. Boat rentals, jet skiing, and catching massive 30-pound king salmon are among the most popular activities here. RV sites may come with electrical hookups, while tent camping has amenities like flush toilets, showers, picnic tables, children’s playgrounds, and a basketball court. For more of a rustic camping trip, escape to over one-million acres of untouched Montana wilderness at Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge. From riparian zones by the Missouri River to vast grasslands, the refuge is especially appealing for backcountry camping with minimal facilities. Take note of peak elk viewing times—they occur during the breeding season in September and October, when herds gather in the hundreds at the Slippery Ann viewing area.

What a lovely site! Very private with great views. Scott was very communicative and gave great directions and we wish we had fridge space for his organic eggs and veggies! We had only one night but would stay there again in a heartbeat.

This place is wonderful and is - for me - why hipcamp spots can be so special. The land is beautiful and a place I never otherwise would have been able to stay/camp while driving across the country. We had such a wonderful time and wished we could stay longer to enjoy the spot. Advice to visitors (at least in June 2025) to bring some kind of bug repellent (they're out in the area). Not biting - but can be a pain if you're not prepared. Unequivocally recommend this spot!

1 night at Heritage Hills Farm

This was our first time boondocking in our 35 foot Montana fifth-wheel, and our first time using a HipCamp. It was awesome. Scott escorted us up onto a bluff with a view. There was a fire ring we could have used, but we used our Solo Stove instead. The land is semi-arid and there weren't any trees, just some little cactuses and scrub brush. But the SKY was super clear, and there wasn't anyone within eye site or earshot. Totally private. We wanted zero neighbors! We enjoyed the sunset and the clear view of the stars. We bought some chicken eggs and got a few duck eggs also. Very yummy; better than the grocery store any day. Scott and Cassie were super friendly. Due to windy weather on our way to their farm from the night before in MN, we were running about 2 hours late upon arrival. We communicated with Scott multiple times and he replied back promptly. If this hadn't been just an overnight on our larger trip from Indiana to West Glacier National Park, we would have stayed another night or two. We definitely recommend checking out the farm!

This was such a beautiful place! My friend and I had the most beautiful spot on top of the hill! The pups even came to hang out!! Very well behaved and made us feel safer to say the least 😂! We will definitely book again if we ever are in the area again.

Great views of surrounding hills, plains, stars at night so clear and bright. Not a sight if raining soil on drive trail turns slick. Dry weather only.

Weekend Trip to Heritage Hills Farm

Scott and his fiancée were extremely nice and inviting. They were very accommodating and helpful when finding a place to tent up. They offered a tour of the farm, which we took up on, it was super cool. The landscape was beautiful and breathtaking. They have three dogs that were super friendly and loved to hang out with us. Definitely recommend staying there if you get a chance because I know for sure that I will if I get another opportunity!
