Site 2 - Montana Old West Tent Sites

We had a good experience camping on Patty’s land. Directions and signage were good.m and helpful. No one was in the office but self-check-in was straightforward. Gravel to park was a bit overgrown but the campsite was clear so had plenty of room to pitch a tent.

Patty and her husband were awesome and so nice! When high winds hit the campsite they let us move our tent into one of their buildings.

Montana Old West Tent Sites

The campground has a lot of potential and the hosts are very friendly and helpful. Amazing view of the mountains and close to Many Glacier. Biggest issue is the really old port-a-potty.
