We hope you will find Old West RV Park to be your home whether for overnight travel or for an extended stay. The park is conveniently located off of I-90 at mile marker 392. We are 55 miles west from Billings, 80 miles east of Bozeman and 120 miles away from Yellowstone. We are a convenient stop wherever your travels take you. The Beartooth Highway is nearby and takes you through the Absaroka and Beartooth Mountains complete with glacial lakes and lush forests. Catch up with friends and family back home with our convenient Post Office next door. The Sure Stop gas station/convenience store is right across the street to pick up some snacks and supplies or just for a quick re-fuel in your travels. And yes, they do have diesel. Travel back in time down our main street where you can see the original store fronts and houses from a time long gone by. And stop by the Waterhole Saloon for some good drinks, food and friendly people. Reed Point has the annual Running of the Sheep on Labor Day weekend! Hundreds of Montana sheep run down main street complete with a Parade and Street Fair. We are close to the Yellowstone River and fishing access. And this is just a personal bias, but the stars at night are so much more beautiful in Montana. Take a step back in time as you stay with us at the Old West RV park.

Weekend Trip to Wildhorse Trail

We enjoyed RV camping here. The site was level and the mountain view was stunning. Suzanne and Greg were very knowledgeable about RVs and helped us with 2 minor issues we had.

This Hipcamp site was great while visiting the Bozeman MT area, especially when we had to be in town a few different times. There was plenty of space and our hosts were great!

Weekend Trip to Old West RV Park

Old West RV Park is a little gem! Even with renovations going on during our stay, the grounds were neat as a pin and the bathrooms were super clean. But the best part of staying here? The owners! Jeremy and Ivy are wonderfully kind, thoughtful people who go above and beyond in many senses of the word. Jeremy came over to greet us in person and make sure we had everything we needed…even though we arrived WAY later than normal office hours. Then, when my wife and I had a family emergency during our stay, they were super empathetic and accommodating, in spite of our constantly shifting plans. If you’re looking for a clean, safe, comfortable place to stay where you’re not just another number on a rear view mirror tag, this is it.
