1mi from Lewistown · 1 site · RV · Lewistown, MT

1 RV site with full hookups located on 3 acres. The site is shared with a small Amish built cabin that is currently occupied by our daughter, Son-in-law and their younger son while they build their new home on the north end of the property. The RV site sits adjacent to the cabin with a privacy fence separating the two. This is a back in site only but there is plenty of room to maneuver your rig in order to back in. We are located in a rural neighborhood with open fields and homes that sit on 2-5 acre lots. Nice view to the east of the Judith Mountains and close to downtown conveniences. Pets are o.k. provided they are kept in owners control or on a leash

2. Horse Thief, Saloon

33mi from Lewistown · 3 sites · Tents, RVs · Stanford, MT

Three beautiful acres located on the property of the horse thief saloon that has a wonderful menu and adult drinks. Children are welcome. We have an outdoor shower. RV parking and tent sites we are located between Stamford, Montana and Lewistown a great community. A small town perfect for a nice quiet night of camping and a laid-back environment to eat and drink beer.

Corner lot with gravel pad with pull through ability from 2nd ave to Fergus Ave via a dog leg right turn. Property is at the edge of town and has a tree wind screen on the west side to give a little protection from the wind and what little traffic may pass. Legion Bar and Grill is a 150 yard walk to the east down 2nd Ave. Site has electric hookup (50 amp, 30, amp and 120 volt). Dry camping only at this time. Water and sewage dump is being investigated. Can be done for long-term rentals. We do allow tents. The site has a small strip of level grassy area that should fit an 10 ft tent. And some smaller pup tents. See photos for perspective. Location is very quiet. Property is about 1/8 of an acre not 1 acre. Unfortunately, hipcamp entry doesn't allow a smaller entry than 1 acre in the acres box.

Weekend Trip to Close to hunting & Missouri Breaks

Stephen's site is great! The location is easily accessible, and was very convenient for our adventures. It is set several blocks from the highway and is very quiet and peaceful. The 30A / 50A / 110 electrical hook up was an added bonus. We expect to be back again soon!
