Located in Big Arm, Montana, Wild Horse RV Resort is a newer RV park that has individual owners and the lots are larger than a typical site. We own Lot 1 and it is FRONT ROW! No camper will block your views. This lot is also slightly larger than the others at about 60' x 100' and can accommodate large recreational vehicles. Wild Horse RV is a wonderful community of owners who love being near Flathead Lake, Glacier National Park and all things Montana! Big Arm Marina is just across HWY 93 and you can bring your boat and rent a slip (if there is availability), have dinner and just enjoy amazing sunsets on the lake. From our wonderful camp spot, you will have a beautiful view of Flathead Lake and the surrounding mountains. It is just so peaceful!
Our layout is designed as a Pull-In Site for Motorcoaches. Hookups are on the LEFT side if you pull in... 5th Wheels and trailers will also work. You can pull in and disconnect. You are allowed to pull your truck through the middle of the aisle between the lots. However, once you reconnect, you will need to back your rig out unless no one is in Lot 2 and then you can pull through.
Our site features wonderful lake views and we have full hook-ups (water, sewer & electricity - 50 amp) for your convenience . We have a gazebo with a gas-fire patio table - If you use the gas fire patio table, I do ask that you fill it before you leave so the next guest can use it. Dogs are allowed but need to be leashed and due to fire restrictions no wood fires are allowed (only gas). Also, HOA rules state no tents.
***There is a community area with a grill and pickle ball.***
******NO wood fires are permitted due to fire restrictions. Small GAS fires are ok. *******
HOA rules stipulate that the minimum stay is 7-nights. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to grant shorter stays. Month to Month is also available. Also, if you are military (active, retired, vet), teacher or first responder let me know - we are happy to offer a 10% discount for your hard work! No tents are permitted - HOA rules
PLEASE clean up the lot upon departure - please don't leave food or gunk on the tables or trash around the site. Be kind and leave it nice for the next guest. This includes picking up any pet messes. :)

You won’t forget your time in this well-appointed tent with a roomy deck and beautiful view of Big Arm Bay. Enjoy the view as you relax on the deck or cook a meal with the Blackstone.
This is a 20'x13' wall tent from Idaho on an elevated deck with hardwood floors. It has a 6' shaded deck with high table seating that looks over the lake and back yard. Three walls are framed for more comfort. There is a bathhouse with a toilet, a shower, and laundry for the GlampCamp occupants.
There is a vacation house that can also be rented, on the same property, but the privacy fence and yard are a good buffer zone. GlampCamp's private space is the deck behind the privacy fence. The washer and dryer can be shared upon request. The driveway beside the fence to the right of the gate for Lakeview Landing up to the dirt pile is your parking area.

🏕️ Elkrise Meadows – Elk at Sunrise Under the Big Sky
Location: Trout Creek, Montana
Type: Primitive Tent Camping | 10 Acres | Off-Grid
Welcome to Elkrise Meadows — where the elk roam, the sky never ends, and your morning coffee comes with a front-row seat to nature’s wildest show.
Pitch your tent on 10 private acres of meadowland nestled in the wilderness outside Trout Creek. No power, no water, no Wi-Fi — just you, your gear, and whatever you bring with you. If you pack it in, pack it out.
Each morning just before sunrise, a herd of elk moves through the pasture, grazing peacefully in the early light. It's a moment you'll never forget — whether you're sipping coffee by the fire, stretching in the cool dawn air, or watching from inside your tent.
This is roughing it at its finest. Perfect for hunters, couples looking to unplug, or anyone ready to experience Montana the old-fashioned way: raw, real, and unforgettable.
🔥 What to Expect
🌄 Epic sunrise views over open meadows
🦌 Daily elk sightings (seriously!)
🔥 Fire pits welcome (check fire restrictions)
⛺ Bring your own tent, gear, and grit
💧 No water, no toilets – this is real off-grid camping
🛻 Easy pull-up access for trucks/SUVs
Note: This is not a glamping site. It’s the kind of place where you might wake up at 4 a.m. with your partner, step outside to take a leak, and suddenly find yourself staring down a herd of elk in the rising mist. If that excites you — you’ve found your spot.

Highly recommend this cabin!! The hosts were incredibly friendly and always available. The cabin checked all our boxes, spotlessly clean and felt homey. The location was peaceful and beautiful, set in the countryside yet conveniently close to must-see attractions and nearby cities. A solid 10/10!!

Lot 1 is absolutely wonderful! 10/10- THIS SPOT IS A HIDDEN GEM. Great site with tons of room to spare with our 44ft toy hauler. Its an intimate, quiet park with friendly neighbors. It includes a picnic table and 6 person fire table with a beautiful view of mountains and Flathead Lake. There's a community shed with tons of games, pickleball net and equipment. Flathead Lake and surrounding cities are wonderful and Glacier is a little over an hour drive.
