Black Sandy State Park

Turn an afternoon into a month-long retreat at Black Sandy State Park, where legend has it salmon and trout jump right into your boat before you even have a chance to cast your line. Black Sandy offers a rare chance to camp right on the shores of the Hauser Reservoir, the perfect locale for fisher(wo)men, waterskiers, and sunbathers alike. If you’re the boating type, head down the Missouri river in search of a rumored rope swing or jump off the boat for a dip in the crystal waters of Hauser Lake. Looking to avoid all the crowds or enjoy a solitary weekend under the endless Montana sky? Just head to Black Sandy during the winter months! You’ll find the same great stunning views and an ice skating experience that will put your grandparents’ childhood tales to shame.
