Rating: 5 1 3 8 2 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We did wind up getting a free night after staying for 6, as we wound up staying here a week because of motorhome issues. Would never have chosen this as a week's destination; initially thought we were only staying 2 nights to visit the area and it was quite convenient to shopping considering we had to be here for so long. Did not tour the whole campground but I think there were several/many long term folks as I saw monthly bills on the desk in the office. It's only saving grace was that we had 50 amp service and full hookups while getting our motorhome issues managed. The lady in the office (when she was there) was quite friendly and helpful as we needed some major cleaning done inside our rig. She claims new owners have taken over and improvements will be made this Fall. Private shower stalls looked quite nice although we did not use them. Laundry facilities were filthy and ancient. Went to a laundromat up the road instead. Sites are very close together - we couldn't open awnings or use a picnic table which was falling apart anyway. Landscaping was non-existent. I would never come back here. - RVtravelers2
We drove through this RV park to see an option to another local park. We would not stay here. It is really a trailer park with residents stacking whatever items they want around their site. Evidently, they don't own a lawnmower. Park is considerable disrepair. Better to stay in the Walmart parking lot! - 2SimsNanRV
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Helena Campground and RV Park »Not many choices in Helena. Was OK for a one-nighter. Make sure you stay up front by the office. The back part is for long term folks. Most expensive rundown park we have ever stayed in. I don't believe they have spent a hundred dollars on improvements in the last five years. If necessary we would stay here again. Never did meet the office person. - whit gentry

Rating: 6 5 7 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Not much has changed since my post dated July 2015. Here are some updates. You can stay at the fairgrounds up to 7 days, and cannot return until 14 days later. The price has gone up in July to $22 + a "convenience fee" of 3% if you pay by credit card. There is no mention of a convenience fee on their web site. The front office is open Monday thru Friday - closed on the weekend. The electrical pedestals look new and the voltage was good - hovering around 122 volts. Sites 1, 2, 3 and 20 had 50/30/15 amp electrical service. All other sites had 30/15 amp service. Each site had a picnic table and fire ring. Wi-Fi is not available within the campground. Verizon hot spot and phone reception was good. The campground needed mowing when we arrived and was not mowed 7 days later and the trash was picked up only once. The grass when we left was knee high. Every day we had seen the same local residents walking their dogs (off leash) within the campgrounds. Some residents picked up after their dogs, some did not. The folks in the front office told us that there was security 7/24, however, we never saw them. There is a bathroom with (3) push button showers per gender. These bathrooms were clean but not very appealing. The bathrooms are located near the front office. The office staff will unlock the bathrooms if needed. There are vault toilets within the campground. Water spigots are located throughout the fairgrounds but not within the RV park. Trains blow their horns throughout the night. Some days more than others. Site 20 might be difficult to leave the park because you have to make a sharp left hand turn. This site might be best for smaller rigs. We would come back to this park. We have a 32 foot 5th wheel. - adsaxs
No landscaping, just weeds that needed to be mowed. The picnic table was in such bad shape we couldn't even sit at it. There was a pit toilet and showers were available near the office but we did not use them. There were no signs indicating the RV park once we entered the fairgrounds; luckily I had gotten directions when I made the reservation. We were assigned a site when reserving but they said if we found a better site to just let them know. Our fresh water tank was full but there were water spigots available in the parking lot. No WiFi and OTA television was sketchy. For the price it was a good place to park while visiting family. - Betsy_02
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Lewis and Clark County Fairgrounds »Prior review still applies, but to reiterate a few points: Make sure you fill up your water in the parking lot where you register. If you have a large vehicle, you may want to shop around for the best site before committing to one. We had an end one with a good drop to into; it was pretty level once in. Fire pits, picnic tables and trash barrel at each site. When we pulled in, we were disappointed with the depressing landscape of mostly dirt and some weeds, but there was hardly anyone else around, the view was amazing, and it was very quiet except for the occasional train. Within minutes though, we were loving it. Locals walk their dogs (almost all off-leash) here resulting in more much more activity than just the campers. Excellent location for seeing the Helena sights. Loved being able to do a loop around the fairgrounds with our dogs. If you've got kids, there is a pond where children-only can fish and a great huge playground. If full, then I can imagine it feeling much more cramped. - MichelleKry

Rating: 10 9 9 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is a stunning location along the Missouri River about a half hours drive ENE of Helena, MT. Sites are nice size and reasonably level. Camp hosts do a great job and are very helpful. There are no utilities nor a dump station. Verizon data service is spotty in the campground, but seems to be very strong at the day use area, at the south end of the campground. Been here twice, will come again. - RobertMoo355
Wonderfully peaceful - on a Monday. This campground was very quiet on the Monday we were there, silent at night. Lovely overlook of the river from several sites. Sites are very widely spaced, gravel, with picnic tables and fire pits. Unfortunately they have lost a lot of trees in the past couple years, so there is not much shade. The pit toilets were pristine, but there were no campers in that part of the park. There is potable water and a hose to fill water tanks! A walking path goes over to the day use area. I understand that on Wednesday thru Saturday, this is not such a peaceful place as it fills up with families, boaters, fisher people, jet skiers, etc... Some of the sites are reservable. - ALbums
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Devil's Elbow Campground (BLM) »We would still be here, but our fridge decided not to run well on propane and we needed to plug into electric. This is a very nicely maintained BLM campground. Wide sites that will allow 2 units (side by side) in some and ample room for other vehicles. The camp Hosts are lovely people who make sure that campers turn off their generators at 10 PM and are visible every day keeping things neat. Boat ramps, fish cleaning stations, bike and walking trails are all here. Close to Helena for trips to Walmart, Costco, etc. This is a great place to stop on your way from Glacier to Yellowstone. We will surely return. Come on a Monday or Tuesday to get a spot. This campground begins to fill on Wednesday, and by the weekend it is full. - dqcarol

Rating: 7 8 8 7 6 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Decent campground currently going through some improvements. Gravel sites that are a little narrow and a little dusty but OK for a few nights. They have a brand new fenced in dog park. Excellent WiFi. OTA TV is good. Fairly quiet. This is a good place to stock up on supplies. There is a Costco, Target, Walmart, large grocery stores, etc. - Mitchells

View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Helena North KOA (formerly Lincoln Road RV Park) »Finally, an RV park with good WiFi! Their internet is top notch...no fee and no password. Easy-peasy. The place is really looking good with constant upkeep and changes and fine tuning going on. The dog park is huge! Two of them...side by side. Nice. Our spot was a bit tight next to our neighbor but some of the rows had more space. However, we got the sunsets with no one in front. We did not use the facilities as we're self-contained. Easy check in at the office. Roads were also simple to navigate. Water pressure was good. Since going over to a KOA in May, the place has vastly improved. - We2AreUs

Rating: 8 7 7 7 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Nice small park with pull-thru 50 Amp sites. Sites close together with concrete bordered grassy area between sites but sewer connection too high! Paved sites, Need to add wifi!!! Some TLC needed. Gravel patio with table. - CSM Carolyn
Customer Service Fail. Came in before 2:00 pm, the check-in time. Even if I could not check in I would have liked to have placed the vehicle in the space they were going to put me in. I was there for over an hour before they told me the site, I still had to wait until 2:00 to check-in and get the key to unlock the services. Camp Host is very helpful and friendly. The Fam Camp is small and well maintained. Sites slightly unlevel. Easy to get around only three roads in the fam camp. Came in south gate, they recommend north-gate as it is meant for commercial trucks. You will have to call the main-gate and a policeman will open gate for you. - TekManiac
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Fort Harrison RV Park (Military FamCamp) »Although the sites were terribly close together, and they installed 50 amp in the small sites and 30 amp in the larger sites, and there is an island built up with curbs in between each site that houses the sewer hookup (making the sewer hookup higher than the RV's connection) I have to say the park is comfortable. The park host is immaculate in his upkeep. As soon as an RV pulls out, he checks the site for any grass or weeds that might have come up through the gravel then he rakes the island and the gravel the where the RV parks. There is no trash, no junk, nothing unsightly at all. There is no wifi. The utilities are fine (power went out once and they had to change out the big 200 amp breaker, but they took care of it within a few hours). A word about the utilities: The park was originally set up to park social side to social side making the utilities on wrong sides, etc. However, when you go there to park, the host has you park in a normal fashion so you have to run electric under your rig (or other utilities). Even though there are quite a few negatives, the park host does an outstanding job keeping it neat, clean and comfortable. We would go back. - jomark

Rating: 8 10 9 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We were the only campers on the lower level of the campground for two nights. It's a nice spot, but we moved the trailer across the road for the second night because the wind is intense there in the spring. The sites on the side of the road away from the reservoir, and up against the hillside, are less windy. That made sleeping easier. The basic pit toilets were clean and well-maintained. - User2873
Price is half of the full price per night with an Intra-Agency NP pass. Other discounts available. Rated a 10 based on accuracy of services. Very clean, very wide sites. Fire pits at every site and lake front views almost everywhere. Beach is clean and available in season for swimming. Fishing seems to be the big draw! Boat ramp right at the campground. No utilities, WiFi, cell coverage or TV reception. Bring your generator but only use between 7am-10pm. - Craig H

However, last 2 miles of the road to get here is dirt, but it's the Best dirt road I've ever seen! New residential property along the way and I bet it's all paved soon. Stayed here 3 nights. Very easy drive to Helena with good grocery and fuel. No phone service or TV at campsite. Sites are easy back-in with good space. - SailorGolf

Rating: 9 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is one of the nicest, no hookup places that I have ever stayed at. It is located next to a dam on the Missouri river. Our site was next to the river. I would recommend it to anyone.
The road to the campground was a little difficult and required crossing on top of the dam. - mpruetView more reviews and a full list of amenities for Canyon Ferry Lake, Riverside Campground »This is the nicest campground with no services we have ever stayed at. It was immaculately clean, on the water, and there is a huge dam within sight. There is water throughout the campground , stone picnic tables and really nice fire rings all for $15 a night. Crazy!! We loved it and would highly recommend it to anyone passing through the area, but I will warn you the drive to get to it is a little steep and curvy. There is water in the campground in a few places, and the only major drawback is no dump. They really should put one in. I don't know what the noise is like when the dam is running, but since I like waterfall noise I think that would have been a plus for me. - Lee and Trace

Rating: 7 5 3 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is a small camping facility, located on Hauser Lake. There are boat slips, places to launch jet ski, and kayaks. Boating and fishing are very popular. We were there over a weekend, extremely busy. The RV sites are very tight! They are all back ins, it is not big rig friendly. Our site had electric, and water was nearby but not at site. There is a dump station at the exit. - kat31m
Our site was right on the water and we enjoyed great views of the river. The sites are very close together and it is a very busy park. Although it's a bit remote, it felt like we were in a city park. Site was not level on one side so I had to park even closer to the adjacent camper. It's a bit disappointing to be in such a beautiful setting yet happy that we didn't stay more than 1 night. Would not return. Host at entrance was very friendly. - Globeville
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Black Sandy State Park »I'm sorry to say that this park was a huge disappointment. We arrived anticipating trees and semi private spaces, like most national parks. The sites are side by side with no separation, and not many trees. Sites were gravel with a fire ring and picnic table. There was no feeling like being in a national park at all. Proximity to the lake would, I suppose make it good for people with kids, or those fishing. - Two Travellers

There are no hook-ups but the sites are paved and level. Reservations are accepted. The day use area is part of the actual campground and it is very busy. Prepare for a lot of boat noise as it is right on the lake. There was a host but he didn't seem to enforce the leash rules as several dogs were left off leash. The campground was average and about what we expected. Look out for low branches. Our RV was too tall for some of the trees. I asked the camp host to let the park management know so they can be trimmed before someone's roof gets damaged. - RosieandThumper

Rating: 7 2 3 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: The Spot they put our Tiffin in was right in front of the office, in I believe #5, which was on grass, not level, No 50 Amp. and sporadic 30 Amp (in the heat of the day, it would not run One of our A/C's and our Microwave at the same time), and they were not interested in the least in trying to fix the problem. - OlePhart
The GOOD, the BAD, the UGLY. The GOOD...this is a relatively nice campground on a nice lake. We stayed in the overflow area with no hookups. Camping experience was fine. The BAD...the owners could use some work on their "people skills". Not real friendly and sort of short and abrupt. You get the feeling from them like "give me your money and move on". The UGLY...we rented a pontoon from them, and upon its return, were accused of doing a $1000.00 damage to it. While returning to our RV, I got to thinking about all the digital photos we took that day, and as luck would have it, we had two very good photos of that side of the pontoon while we were boarding in the morning that clearly showed the damage before the pontoon left the marina (they were dated and time stamped). The owner reluctantly looked at the photos and said he believed us. Draw your own conclusions. There are a lot of nice campgrounds and marinas around this lake, and we will not be staying at this one again. - grldst
