Beautiful area with tons of wildlife and farm animals. Great big open sky which made viewing the Orionids amazing. Would definitely recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Jennifer’s farm! We had several goals for this trip. We needed a dog friendly campground for our two large dogs when they could have a large play space (we used e-collars for our “leashes”). We also needed a quiet spot to introduce Max (our rehomed military working dog) to camping. I also was looking for a spot near where I could continue training our 2 year old Chessie for bird hunting. Jennifer’s farm exceeded our expectations and made achieving our goals easy.
The site had ample room for our 28’ travel trailer. The spot was level and sunny. Be aware this is dry camping, we had ample water and grey and black tank capacity for our 4 day stay. We did run our small generator for a few hours each day to top off the batteries and charge our devices. Our dogs are used to livestock and they (and we) were very amused by the antics of the baby goats. The location is easy to get to from the main highway and
We will return when we need to stay in the Arlee area again, and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet scenic getaway!
I’d be remiss if I didn’t recognize Jennifer as a great host!

Rusty Nail Farm
I loved my stay on Rusty Nail Farm. Jennifer is a clear, prompt communicator with a built in kindness factor. I knew where to park, what to watch for, and when to arrive. She made space in her freezer for me, since I was traveling with a cooler of food! It was exactly the right amount of interaction and privacy. The view is phenomenal and reminds me of where I grew up - train sounds and all. I return every year.

Jennifer has such a wonderful piece of land, and we loved our visit! Highlights include the sunset view from the pasture, the ingenious composting toilet, the outdoor shower, and meeting the goats. Would happily come back!

Rusty Nail Farm
Had a peaceful evening at Rusty Nail, and had a great time chatting with Jen. We were able to fill up our small water stash and hung out with some goats. Avery, the pup, was a great little companion and we had no issues with our dog (barring her small amount of jealousy of Avery!) Definitely a great spot for a quiet night, if we weren’t on a longer trip maybe we would’ve wanted to try some eggs or meat. Thanks, Jen!

Beautiful and peaceful views of fields and mountains. Micah gave us a very warm welcome and educational tour of the farm. Avery the dog was hilarious to watch 'guard' the farm from invisible threats. Cold outdoor shower on a hot summer day was a highlight.

Tent camping was peaceful and serene at the Rusty Nail! The hosts are very accommodating and knowledgeable about the area. I've not found this at many other sites. And Avery is the best dog (next to mine)! A beautiful stay in the beautiful Jocko valley.

Jennifer was really nice and explained where we could set up our tent. Very nice property, beautiful views, and cute animals! Would definitely stay again.

Don’t think any more, just book this spot! It was great. I loved tent camping here. It was a beautiful setting, and Jennifer was lovely to meet.
To be honest, I’m not usually very social and don’t look forward to interacting with hosts - I just want to do my own thing - but I felt warmly welcomed by Jennifer and at the same time was given ample space and privacy to enjoy the property.
Other things: The outhouse with composting toilet and outdoor shower were lovely and felt like real luxury! Verizon cell service was fast with three bars. Directions and gps were exactly right and it was easy to find.

These are good people. Friendly, kind, and flexible.
If you need a camp around the Missoula area this is a great option with shower and out house.

Rusty Nail Farm
I camped one night in my van at Rusty Nail and it was a delightful night of rest. Jennifer is a clear and quick communicator, the land was well cared for and the critters a delight! Don’t miss sunset and the sound of sprinklers and a train every now and then. Beautiful spot.

We had an absolutely fantastic time at the farm! Jennifer is a great host and was easy to get in touch with. Our group consisted of two families, mine had 4 and our friends had 5. Between us we had 5 girls of which the four younger ones loved the tour of the farm and all the animals! We setup our small camping trailer in the pasture and our friends slept under the trees in the backyard. The temps were in the low 90s but things quickly cooled off after 8 o'clock. I would highly recommend staying here and we hope to again when we go back to Missoula!

If you're going to visit Garden of 1,000 Buddhas - Jennifer's property is the PERFECT spot to camp. The horses, goats, kitties, and dog are all lovely. This is a special place with magical energy.
I stayed there on my way from BC, Canada to Big Sky, MT, and loved it so much, I stayed there on my way back to BC as well.

What is not to love about this location?! The cool owners, the animals, the views, and the proximity to other places worthy of a visit, and farm fresh eggs to purchase for breakfast - everything else you read in the reviews is true. We came at a time where it was very hot and not much shade, but Micah and Jen offered up access to their backyard which was plenty cool in the shade of their trees.

Beautiful peaceful farm, helpful and generous hosts! Got to feed baby pigs and Avery the dog spent lots of time with us. Walked up the road to enjoy the breathtaking views and the property is walking distance to the Thousand Buddhas (if you aren’t accompanied by whiny children). Highly recommend! Thank you!

The Rusty Nail Farm was fabulous! Jennifer and Micah are friendly and welcoming hosts. Jennifer even showed us around the farm and let us pet the baby goat. Avery is a friendly , laidback, “cool” dog! Lol! The views are beautiful! I would highly recommend staying at the Rusty Nail!

We absolutely LOVED Rusty Nail Farm! Jennifer was such a sweet host and gave us a tour of the farm. We even purchased goods from her farm directly. Rusty Nail Farm has a shower, compost toilet, and plenty of space with gorgeous views. I would highly recommend staying here.

Jennifer the Host was great once again! The property is a tranquil farm spot in the valley which is restful and quiet. The host was very supportive with guests getting situated yet allowed them their space. I stop by every time I'm traveling through western MT and I suggest that you do the same!

A quiet, scenic little farm with splendid 360 degree views. Host Jen is a kind and pleasant person. Our thanks for letting us pitch a tent alongside the RV for an extra guest at no extra charge. We befriended two horses, two dogs and some newborn goats during our visit too. A very nice stay, well deserving of the 100% HipCamp rating. Of course we would stay again.
