It's beautiful! But isn't all of Island Park beautiful. There was a little snow but the trip wasn't bad. It leads you to Rosie's Falls. Someone has carved a beautiful bench to sit and enjoy the views.
This was the cleanest, neatest, and well kept campground that I have ever been to in Montana, Wyoming and Idaho. Cliff and Cyndi are the hosts and they make such a difference.
Need to travel on a dirt road to get here. Once there it is a beautiful campground. Ruby is the most helpful and friendly host. Camp and facilities are clean and well kept. Leave your generators and speakers for the bigger campgrounds, and enjoy the quite sounds of nature. It’s a short hike down to the river for some exploration. Will be back again for sure
Great campground, hiked the trail and saw the milky way from the tent late in the night/early morning. Host is friendly and helpful. Road is dirt and bumpy but passable by car. Best part was the serene atmosphere. First come first serve works for me, as plans can always change.
Such a beautiful campground. Lots of trees and privacy. Communal bear boxes. There is potable water and two sets of vault toilets. Backs up to box canyon trail which goes to a waterfall. Camp host was very helpful. Definitely bring bug spray.
