The Bitteroot National Forest provides sugar-sweet offerings to your senses.

Hot damn! This is the place to be. With over 1.6 million acres, the Bitteroot provides heaps, loads, and bundles of outdoor recreational bliss. The forest has plentiful big game, the rivers are calling your kayak's name, the camping is otherworldly, and you can rent log cabins or fire lookouts (ooohwee)!

The Flathead National Forest is all about its geography. It lies in the heart of the Rockies, just west of the continental divide, and a pinch south of the Canadian Border. With geography like this, landscape magic is bound to occur, and it does. With over 2.4 million acres, the Flathead features three wilderness areas, impressive ski areas, commanding wild ranges, meandering streams, and raging rivers (this list could go on). Spend your days hiking, rafting, wildlife viewing, snowshoeing, and fishing. At night shack up in a Forest Service cabin or pitch a tent beneath the northern lights. Get the fire roaring, raise your bottle, and make a toast to the Flathead and her geographic magic!

Adventuring in the largest national forest in Montana should definitely be added to your summer (or winter!) to do list. Activities abound in The Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest, including wilderness trekking, scenic drives to killer views, camping among smallish forest sites, downhill and cross-country skiing in the winter, lake fishing, picnicking, and exploring historic wild-west ghost towns in the summer. You can also check out parts of the Continental Divide trail which crosses through this park, and cheer on thru-hikers in the final stretch of their epic journey. You may just have to flip a coin to decide between the plethora of outdoor fun in this 3.35 million acre forest. The choice is yours, all you have to do is pick one and get going!

Space is level and quiet. Plenty of space to set up solar panels and do dog training. Space is far enough away from structures that quiet generators can't be heard at all by neighbors. Also managed neighborhood dog walks without issue. Drivers were slow and courteous to pedestrians.
Was quickly greeted by two curious cats and enjoyed watching a couple young deer play in the grass just 20 feet from my trailer.
Would stay again.

We enjoyed camping in the South pasture. Traffic on Reserve Street nearby was noisy, but to be expected camping in town. Enjoyed relaxing on her lawn where the dog could play fetch. It was a convenient location for getting around Missoula. The nextdoor cows were a little annoying as they obviously have been fed treats by the campers and were vocal about wanting us to give them treats too. When we stay again we will not camp so close to the cows.

I have seen some of the reviews on here about Missoula rest and relaxed and the one review that I saw I can say for sure isn’t always true. It’s an extremely nice place. The owners are really cool and laid-back. I’ve stayed here the first time for two nights out of four nights the first time and this time around it was seven nights. It’s extremely peaceful and there’s not usually a lot of campers excellent place if you want privacy from other people. And are looking for a good place to lay your head, Pappa glamp etc. ect. I give it 11 stars out of 10.
