This is a fabulous park. The grounds are immaculate, with flowers professionally arranged around the park. The sites are spacious, the roads are extremely navigable, there are many trees, but satellite access is easily attainable. The sites are level and easy to get in and out of. The hookups are very accessible and cable is available. It is THE choice in Missoula. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Family owned small campground with plenty of shade. Spaces large with plenty of grass between gravel sites. Owners show pride of ownership with well maintained park with flowers everywhere. Stayed one night to preview park for our return stay next month for a week. Good cable TV and free WiFi. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I am 15, & I'm not too fond of camping, but this place was perfect! I loved it! We only stopped here because we were on our way to Yellowstone and couldn't make it all the way there in one day. But I am aweful glad we found it. The bathrooms were wonderful and clean. The showers were great! There was Wi-Fi & just alot of nice things. You could tell someone cared alot about appearance, because there was always workers out, either cleaning up around the garden beds, or mowing the grass, or cleaning the bathrooms. There was also a laundry place and TV room type thing that was well taken care of. I loved it all & I plan to be back as soon as I possibly can. I will also recomend this to anyone passing through the area. Thanks for having such a great place to stay! (: We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
A well treed parklike setting made this a pleasant place to stay. Driveways are all paved with gravel sites. Trains and highways are far enough away they aren't disturbing. WIFI worked great. The only complaint was our cable connection was so far back I had to add an extention, site F11. The rate reflects winter rates and Good Sam discount. We stayed in a motorhome.

Heavily-treed park with quite a few perma-rigs. Paved interior roads with gravel sites. Long pull-thrus with excellent site spacing for transients. The gravel for the site parking is barely wider than the rig, with tight turns into and out of the site without driving on the grass. It was early in the season when we stayed, and most trees along the roads and between the sites needed branches trimmed, as several scraped the rig on the way in. Most 50-amp sites had new power pedestals. Site hookups placed very close to the rear of pull-thrus, potentially requiring unhooking of toad or extension cords and hoses. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Overall, it was a nice park. Paved drives, but gravel sites. My main complaint was non-working wi-fi. I tried it on two different laptops but it wouldn't connect. Lady in office said it was working for her, so there was nothing she could do. No playground for kids, but kids are allowed. Lots of trees. We stayed just one night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Lovely park. Beautifully landscaped, nice size sites. Friendly, efficient staff. Definitely a place we would stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a great park, period. Beautiful grounds, lots of gorgeous landscaping, friendly staff, super clean bathrooms and laundromat. Sites are big, and we had lots of options for satellite friendly sites. Still, there are lots of trees there that keep the place pretty. Just loved it all around. We'd stay here again in an instant. Forget the competition across the street, Jim and Mary are the best. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park displays pride of ownership with beautiful plants, well kept lawns and overall spotlessness. The sites are large, level and well manicured with good Wi-Fi and satellite. The staff was friendly and helpful in suggesting attractions worth seeing in the area. We spent a pleasant two days at this park and would definitely return for longer on our net trip through the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good place to stop over. A few seasonals but not bad. Lots of elbow room. Nice paved streets, stone pads are nice and lots of grass. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very beautiful and well planned RV park. Wide spaces with grassy area and beautiful flowers all around park. Good and free Wi-Fi reception at our site. Verizon and satellite dish work well. The office staff is very friendly and helpful. This is our third visit to this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We love this park!!! You can tell that the owners love it too! Lots of beautiful flowers, lush grass, level gravel pads. Spotless showers/restrooms. Lots of shade. Stayed here two times on our trip and would certainly stay here again. Some noise from the highway but negligible in our hard-side. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great stop on our travels through Montana. It's very obvious as soon as you drive in that the owners are very proud of "their home" as they have a beautiful, yet very comfortable feeling park. The overnight pull-throughs are very long and easy to get into. All of the utilities are properly placed and cable is included. Laundry facilities were very clean and modern as were the bathrooms. They also had a gathering room with a TV for use while doing the laundry. The Park is far enough away from the highway and interstate to not hear any road noise. However, the railroad tracks about a mile away were sometimes noticeable as the trains applied their brakes coming down the mountain into Missoula. It didn't last long, but, depending on wind direction, can be heard at night. This will be our park of choice as we travel this part of the state. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Wow, what a great rv park, this is a gem!! Long pull throughs that are more out in the open and back ins that are under the trees. Flowers everywhere you look and long wide lush green grass between RV’s with a picnic table at each site. Multicolored gravel for pads that were attractive, level and drained well when it rained. The bathrooms/showers were tiled and clean as a whistle. Water pressure was very good, no problems with the electricity and sewer. Couldn’t get a good signal with the wifi (we were in E-11) so I used my Verizon Aircard with our booster antenna. Cell phone (also Verizon) was iffy, sometimes it would work and sometimes calls went straight to voicemail. We were able to use our dome satellite, otherwise they do have cable TV. The park is very big rig friendly with plenty of room to maneuver around with a tow car. Didn’t check out the laundry facilities but if the bathrooms are any indication, I’ll bet the laundry facilities were spotless too. Shopping centers (that we wanted to use) were about 6 miles away. Missoula has anything and everything!! There’s no pool or hot tub but we never use them anyway. The park is close to hwy. 93 but we didn’t notice any traffic noise at night. Also, there are RR tracks above the park but they didn’t disturb our sleep. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! As far as we’re concerned, this is what an RV Park should be like, inviting!! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is one of the nicest little parks we have stayed in. The attention to detail in the landscaping and flower beds is great. The owners must have a lot of pride in this place. I suggest you stay here over any other park in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is a pleasant retreat with small english type flower gardens, ornamental landscape displays, mature trees and nice sized lawn areas between sites. The only negative comment I can make is about the surroundings, as there is train track in close proximity. The trains are descending a hill and their brakes squeak and squeal loudly as they slow the train down. This is usually for just a short period. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
We were very pleased with this park. The staff was friendly, the property neat, lots of flowers and unique landscaping, nice roads to walk on, great shade with grassy areas between most sites. Garbage is nearby. Its close to the I-90 freeway. I would stay here again. It could use a better stocked store but there are cold drinks and some ice cream bars. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a wonderful campground with beautiful plantings. The owners are gracious and take pride on the upkeep of the property. Our site was a wide pull-through. The laundry room is large an adjacent activity room. There is free cable TV and Wi-Fi service. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Shaded park sites--well kept. Some sites would be hard for our 45' motor home to get into. We were in A2 and it worked well. Convenient to I-90. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We are retired and travel a great deal, and we travel to see nature and wilderness (rather than cities). This is our kind of park - we love it. It is heavily treed, with lots of shade, and it has a nice rustic feel to it. WiFi works well, staff is warm and helpful, the laundry facility is super clean, sites are large - what else could you ask for??? We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This was our third year to visit Jim and Mary's. We love the tranquility of the park. The owners are constantly working on flower gardens within the park. Roads are paved; sites are gravel with grass on each side. The park has been immaculate each time we have visited in our motor home. They are often full, so be sure to make a reservation. We hope to go back again in 2009. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice park. Shady and level site. Good Wi-Fi reception. Friendly staff. Everything clean. Only issue I had was with fuzzy cable channels. I would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is our second visit to this RV park and it's one of our favorites. I can't add anything that hasn't been said already in other reviews, except this visit we didn't bother to make reservations and boy did that turn out to be a mistake! We arrived at about 1:30pm on a Sunday afternoon and got the last site available... a back-in right next to the office with no shade tree or picnic table. We still enjoyed our stay though. After we arrived we saw many RV's, apparently without reservations, turned away. We took a walk in the evening and the park was indeed full. Make no mistake, this is a very popular park, so MAKE RESERVATIONS! We'll definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The sometimes gushing reviews and the park website photos are a little misleading. We reserved a 30 amp,shady site and got a dirty, unlevel back-in without a blade of grass- BUT it was shady. The lush, grassy and long pull-thrus, which seem to be available only for big rigs (is their money worth more?), are not always in the shade. So on a hot summer day, ask for the trees and a pull-thru if you can get it. The voltage and cable tv had problems, and wifi signal was weak, for whatever reasons. The landscaping is really nice. Without having seen the other parks in town, this is still a good choice as long as you get in early and make sure the site is okay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
After having spent a considerable amount of time in "parking lot" RV parks, this place is like winning the lottery. Beaufiful trees, wonderful flowers all around, green, well-maintained grass, wide, level sites, good power and water. The management is extremely friendly and helpful, and this place has to have the mother of all wi-fi systems: Five repeater towers spaced throughout this small park and two systems operating at all time in the event one goes down. This is a great place for an overnighter or for a long-term stay. This is a top park and you will like it here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I don't rate a 10 very often. This is one of the best campgrounds around. The sites are ample and shaded. Their WI-FI at your site is free, fast and with a strong signal. They also have free cable TV. Their laundry room is clean and very comfortable that has an area where there is couch and chairs to sit and read or use laptop. Didn't use the bathhouse much but it was clean when I was in there. They take great pride in this park and they are constantly working on it. The landscaping and flowers are so nice and give great ambiance. Owners are friendly and very accommodating. I can think of no negatives. An absolutely wonderful place to stay. We were there for 3 weeks because just couldn't leave. The rate reflects a weekly rate. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The park is very clean and well maintained with lots of trees. Paved interior roads with gravel sites. The sites have considerable slope back to front and the utility hookups are located at the very back of the site. If you are towing and don't want to unhook you probably won't be able to connect to anything but electricity. Also if you stay hooked up leveling is tricky because of the slope. Otherwise a nice park for a day or possibly a weeks stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Signage to campground good. Limited area to park and register. Office staff very friendly, helpful and efficient. Access roads to sites well maintained but a little narrow. Trees in places made it difficult to turn. Wide gravel /grassy sites mostly pull-thrus which had variable tree cover. Not all sites level. Services located in reasonable position for easy hook-up. Electricity solid and water pressure good. Wi-Fi worked fine most of the time. Some rail noise. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Excellent park. Clean, well groomed. Owners were working hard to do yard maintenance as rain let up for a few hours! Friendly staff. Good sized sites; wonderfully clean rest rooms and laundry. No trees in the pull thru area. Paved roads thru-out park; highly recommend this park; it is off the highway but easy to get to. Wifi and cable TV worked well. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We have stayed at this park in the past. It is convenient to the freeway, but far enough away not to have any traffic noise. The grounds are well maintained with nice sites. We did day trips to Glacier National Park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Older but well maintained park. Many shades sites available. However, you must be careful which site you are assigned if you want to use your satellite receiver. Owners on site and very active in park management. On Wednesdays, there is evening entertainment and ice cream social. We stayed a week and would do so again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Convenient, clean park just off I-90. Had no problem with cell during our visit but it is spotty in the area. Free entertainment, and ice cream social mid-week. New restrooms (all tile)for new spaces and "old" restroom being remodeled. Were on the edge of park and still had workable wi-fi. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice place to stop on the road, but it's on the outskirts of Missoula and cell service is spotty. You could tell the effort the owners put into maintaining it - they were planting annuals in creative arrangements and groupings. The women's bathroom/shower had a bathroomy smell when I looked, but the men's was ok. Most sites are nicely shaded. Due to the lack of reliable cell phone service, I would try another campground in the area next time. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We loved this RV Park. It was absolutely beautiful and clean with spacious sites that had grass and trees on both sides (and a picnic table). Although it was right off of Highway 93 the traffic noise at night was very minimal, and there was zero light pollution. The laundry room had four washers and four dryers with extremely reasonable prices ($1.25 for a washer and $1.00 for dryers). The laundry room was a good size and had a nice table in between the washers and dryers for folding laundry. The bathrooms were sparkling clean, and the large showers had wonderful hot water and excellent water pressure. We would definitely stay here again! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very nice park, with both back-in and pull-through sites. To accommodate our rooftop TV satellite dish, they gave us a pull-through, but there was no way a 40' rig could make the turn into that site. I made another lap and backed into it. The park is wonderfully wooded and well maintained. We will definitely stay there again on our next trip through Missoula. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed 2 nights. After asking for a site away from small "yappie" dogs, shortly after setting up another motorhome parked next to us with 2 small dogs that constantly barked. The sites are large with trees, but power and water hook ups are towards the back so we needed an extra hose to reach because of our toad. The sewer connections are somewhat far to the side of the site, but located in the middle. The highway noise can be heard at night. There seems to be a double standard about clothes lines. The rules say no, but it was OK for a long term camper near the office. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I had to visit this campground after reading so many good reviews about it on here. I have to say that I wasn't let down. They have nice big sites, and the sites are laid out so that even the treed sites are satellite friendly. We only stopped in for the night on our way to Glacier National Park, but we would make this our choice on our next visit to Missoula. They were upgrading the WiFi the day we pulled in and the new system was live that night with a strong fast signal. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This was our first night with our new (for us) travel trailer. The restrooms and showers were very clean. They have a main shower/restroom/laundry building and a secondary; they keep the main building open throughout the winter. I would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a very nice campground. The sites are gravel and surrounded by mature trees. The grass and plants are well maintained. It is obvious that the owners are proud of their campground. The wifi did not reach to our site, which was in the back of the park but we were told that by next year the entire park will be covered. There is a train track behind the park but the noise did not reach us. We would absolutely recommend this park and would stay here again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is an example of a nice looking park completely ruined by a badly designed sprinkler system. In the middle of the night, an oscillating sprinkler head came on right next to the door of our MH and sprayed the side of our rig for an hour. I couldn't get out of the door to stop it because it would have sprayed water into our MH. The next morning I got outside to find our rig covered with white dots which wouldn't wash off. I ended up having to compound the side of the MH to get them off. We will never return!!! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a real nice park. Easy access, but far enough from the highway, you don't hear the noise. Very clean restrooms and big roomy sites. Nice setting among the pine trees and pretty good shade. We will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A very nice campground with friendly and helpful owners. They take pride in the appearance and cleanliness of the park. The grass and flowers were well watered and manicured. We were on the back side of the park and had very little highway noise but the WIFI was very weak at our site. They are several miles from town and shopping. Since they are just off I- 90, they were full almost every night we stayed there. We will stay there again when in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Excellent place to stay. One mile from freeway for easy access but far enough away to be very quiet. Sites are level and wide with well kept grass between them. Spotless, tiled, restrooms and laundry. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great campground. The sites are huge and lots of trees. WIFI is free and can be sporadic depending how far away you are from the router. Most of the time, it worked OK for us. Laundry room was clean and they had a nice rec room too. Owner is very knowledgeable about the area and gives out great info and maps. You can get cable for extra $ but we opted to used the antenna and got all major networks in the local area. Will definitely come back to this little jewel again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice place to stay will traveling through Montana. About half the park has seasonal trailers and motorhomes. Clean overall. Located only a few miles from town and shopping. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is very clean, neat and has beautiful flower beds throughout. The pull-thru sites are very roomy with a fairly large grassy area between sites. The back-in site are in a nicely wooded area. We were there 5 nights and 1 night they had a local singer and an ice cream social and another night they had a craft program. The side of the park away from the side road is more quiet. WiFi worked great and we did not experience any water or electrical problems. The park was full all 5 nights we were there. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Beautiful park with very long pull thrus. Shaded areas so only a few sites have satellite access. Would have rated higher but lack of sufficient water pressure and intermittent power losses, low power made for some inconvenience. Laundry room was clean (no A/C), inoperable dryer was not repaired during our two week stay. Would not visit here again in the summer - over 100 most days. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a delightful RV park – aesthetically pleasing and quiet. Paved streets, gravel parking area is level, large grass lawns between sites. Half the sites are pull-thrus and all are big-rig friendly. About two-thirds of the sites are shaded with tall pines and deciduous trees. The other one-third are satellite friendly. Park is on east side of Hwy 93 just north of I-90 and convenient for on-off. Nice lounge adjacent to clean laundry room. Mid-day the water pressure is low, but otherwise it was sufficient. Every site was filled every night, so reservations are a smart way to go. We are full-timers and without question would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a above average RV park but nothing to rave about. At least it has paved interior roads which is rare in Montana. Jellystone across the street is newer and nicer but has no shade trees. This park has lots of shade trees to block the sun. Site itself is gravel but ok. Staff was friendly and helpful. I have Alltel cell phone and internet and both worked perfectly. It's about a 5 mile drive into Missoula which is no problem since it is all interstate. We played golf two days at two excellent golf courses. We toured the Elk Foundation and the Fire Jumper Training center and both interesting. We had to buy a new camera since our's broke. I love Montana - NO Sales Tax. I would stay here again if back in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice park. No weekly rate. WiFi worked good. Verizon signal a little weak here but works. Grass at site is watered at night. When we were here the weeds needed some attention. It appears they might be shorthanded. No assistance to your site. Cable TV was a little fuzzy. Asphalt roads, no dust! Park says no washing of vehicles but I noticed some doing it anyway. Picnic tables at site needed some attention. All in all a better than average RV park. Would stay here again but might look across the street at Jellystone RV Park. It's hot here in July! We camped here in a Motorhome.
I agree with everyone else! This is a beautiful park, meticulously maintained. Just the flowers are worth the cost of staying here! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice park. We did not have a reservation and were lucky to get a site to accomodate our motorhome. Were told they have sold out already four night this year and it is only mid-June. The gentleman in the office was very helpful. Got us a site where our sat dish would site the bird in the sky and we could get wi-fi, which worked very well. I would definitely recommend this place, but would certainly make a reservation. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very well kept grounds, nice paved interior roads, abundant grass, shade trees, flowers, and a roomy feeling. My only nit pick would be the noise from vehicles on a highway bordering the park... but that's out of control of the owners and wouldn't prevent me from staying here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Beautiful park with wide, LEVEL, gravel sites with many trees, but still with great rooftop satellite reception. Asphalt paved streets. Prior comment mention wifi only from Laundry area. We are in a pull-through, #E4, with excellent & fast wifi. This is one the best parks we've stayed in since departing Baton Rouge on March 21st. We would definitely stay again. Daily rate is based on a 1-week stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice place. Quiet, very clean and managers very friendly and helpful. Internet service (wireless) only works in the laundry area for a fair connection. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a pretty park. The owners have a greenhouse and grow their owns flowers which are planted all over the park, not just at the entrance like some parks. The spaces are easy to get in to. The free WIFI is nice when it's working but every time it rains a little the WIFI drops off. The managers were very friendly and a park work camper, Harlie, was outstanding. He directed us to places of interest in Missoula including a great fried chicken diner and the local Moose Drool brewery!! Thanks Harlie! We camped here in a Motorhome.
We've travelled extensively in the western US, and this campground is by far the nicest we've stayed at. The showers and restrooms are immaculate. The sites are roomy. The grounds are well maintained. We stayed here for a couple of nights in 2004. When we returned in 2005, management remembered us! We would not hesitate to stay here again, and in fact, will, the next time we travel out west. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very attractive park, and extremely pleasant staff! We parked originally for one night, but ended up staying 3 nights while our fifth wheel landing gear was repaired. The staff located a knowledgeable and competent repair service, Valley Mobile Home & RV Center, run by Herschel, who promptly drove to our site, analyzed the problem, and replaced a broken set of bevel gears, re-assembled the strut and sent us on our way for a very modest fee. The Park has paved roads, lots of shade, a quiet atmosphere, very little noise and the secret is out . . . they were full each night! We definitely recommend this place for any stay, any size RV! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a beautiful park and has exactly what I look for in an RV park. The sites are grassy, well kept and large. The entire park has lots of shade trees, not so for the "Jellystone" park across the street. About half of the sites are pull through and most of them offer a good view of the southern sky for the satellite dish. The Wi-Fi works well. If you plan to stay in the summer when the temps are hot (100 every day we were here) you will definitely want to be here rather than at the other park across the street due to all the shade trees. We highly recommend this one and will definitely be back in the future. NOTE: You MUST make reservations as the park stayed full every night we where here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We camped twice, coming and going on our trip and loved this place. Tent camping is near the road and we thought the noise might be too much, but slept well both times. They loaned us a converter for our small amp electrical connection without our asking! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
I don’t usually post but these folks deserve a special mention. If you don’t like trees, stay across the road at Jellystone, if you want a little piece of seclusion and privacy and a sense of inclusion, stay here. We work on the road, have a mobile business that keeps us in gas and peanuts and really value a restful place to come “home” to after a hard day. The nights we stayed there, June 20-25 they had a couple of folksingers and an ice cream social on Wed and Fri nites, free. The grass is green and lush, the spaces far enough apart, the big rig pull through were excellent and we appreciated the friendly folks running the place who really care how they present themselves, their park and your experience. Maybe we were just lucky or open but we met several nice folks who were full timing or extended and were invited over to examine rigs, swap recipes and lies and just socialize. Reception on our Verizon Aircard was dismal but the free wifi was first rate. They have cable and apparently a phone access so no problem with net access. Saw plenty of folks using the Dish for TV. Definitely on our short list of places to stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We've spent alot of time here over the last 5 years. When my Dad was in the hospital in Missoula they literally allowed us to come and go as we needed to over the summer. Their flexibility and park amenities make this our favorite park to stay. The park is very clean, the amenities are great and the staff goes way out of their way to make sure everyone has what they need. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Generous, wide and long sites. Great for big rigs. Owners are very friendly and helpful. They plant beautiful flower gardens with unique decorative accents. Bathrooms and all facilities are immaculate. Only drawbacks are that some sewer connections require a long hose and there is some highway noise - not bad and not interstate. However, all the parks in Missoula have highway noise. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice CG with lots of shade. Far enough off of the highway to be quiet. Owners very friendly and helpful. We would stay here again. Price reflects GS discount. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Selected campground for its location - very convenient to downtown, shopping, etc. Sites are narrow and rigs are close together. There are some older, permanent units that do not look nice and should be removed. The pool and playgrounds for the kids looked very nice. There are two grassy, clean dog parks. Hookups and WIFI were fine. Try to get a shaded spot in the summer - many are in full sun. Campground is well-maintained. There is an ice cream social in the evenings and a breakfast buffet in the mornings. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed 2 nights. The cost was very high for what you get,but the only spots that had fire rings were $50 a night. The kids really wanted to roast marshmallows se we "splurged" for the premium sites. Overall the campground was decent,but had more than a few permanant type residents. Some of their trailers were disgusting. Run down,ratty,wrecks that needed to be in the wrecking yard. We were warned not to leave anything of value out as they had a theft problem at the campground. The pool was very clean and well supervised. When they finish the remodel of some of their sites it could be a very nice park. Kicking out the riff-raff wouldn't hurt either. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Good sized park, close to town but quiet. They are upgrading some of the sites to "super" sites, but I'm not sure they are worth it. Hookups worked fine, WiFi was a little hit and miss. Not a resort, but we did stay a while and thought it was nice. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Overall very nice park and centrally located in Missoula. 2 good playgrounds for the kids, good water & power hookups. Sites also have 2 sewer hookups which is also a plus. Only drawback was the laundry was only open during office hours (8a-8p), so if you arrive late in the evening you can't do the laundry. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice park, love those premium sites. Not a quiet park as they have a school bus barn on premises. Also I had to drive thru a water sprinkler to leave. Great price on firewood. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a fine campground to stay in, there are a lot of site choices with pricing that varies. We were given a site in row D that was a 30 amp site. The next site to us was a 50 amp and the sites in row E were twice as wide. Just ask (or specify) what you want, they'll probably have it. The pool is seasonal and closes 9/15. There is a game room, mini golf and gift shop. Very nice place. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Although we seldom stay at KOAs as fulltimers, this park rates high on our list of places to stay. Right in Missoula and close to shopping, the park has easy access, big rig sites, and shade and green grass. Lots of activities for the family. Cable and WiFi were free and worked well. A huge staff of yellow-shirted workampers were everywhere, and the landscaping and condition of the park showed. Would be a 10 if it had paved pads; we were there during the rain and it was a bit muddy. We'd stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here twice on this trip - 2 days in late July and 3 days in late August. For us, it's proximity to shopping (Super Wal-mart, Best Buy, Albertsons) and numerous restaurants (sit down and fast food) makes this a good park for a multi-day stay. This is a fairly large park with a mix of seasonals, overnighters, tenters, RVs, tenters, and motorcyclists. During the summer, this is not a park for those who want a quite park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Great Park, and Great employees. Beautiful Park, Lot's of trees. Flowers are Beautiful and well cared for. Staff seem to go out of there way to help when you need it. Will definitely come back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Rain rain go away. We stayed here for a week in late May and it rained every day. Pretty nice park. We stayed here because of a "Hot Deal" they had on their website. $21 a night is a good value for a park with all amenities. Wi-Fi worked good and Verizon worked good. School was still in session and this park has a bus barn on premises. They were a little noisy and raced thru the park on the way in to the barn. Good laundry facilities. Store with good selection of RV supplies and Montana gifts. Staff very helpful. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We camped here for 15 nights in a 5th wheel. Everything went very well for us here. The campground is within walking distance to shopping. All services they provided worked well, except the wifi worked about 80% of the time. We had a shady site not too far from the pet area. The next time we visit the area, we will stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Stayed two nights in a premium site. Swing, fire pit and concrete patio. Premium sites are next to dog run, trash dumpster, and playground?? Trash truck comes at 530 AM. Premium Site over priced. Stayed in nicer sites for less money. Small cafe in park for breakfast and ice cream. Staff here is wonderful and friendly. Flowers boxes were very pretty. WiFi worked good! Morning newspaper nice touch. We will stay here again but only because of location. If you want to stay for a few days, go for Jim and Mary's! Also be sure and visit the Smoke Jumper facility at the Missoula Airport. Very worthwhile.... We camped here in a Motorhome.
We have stayed at much better KOA parks. The spots were too close to each other and there were narrow roads between the rows. They had a very small pool for the size of the park. There was a nice store and cafe. The staff was very friendly and helped us get a spot at the last minute. We had to find a spot while waiting for repair part for our RV.The entrance to the park is very congested. We will try another park the next time we are in town. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was our first visit to a KOA and we were pleased with this campground. The streets are paved, which reduces dust, and the sites are well shaded. They have a pancake breakfast and an evening ice cream social, neither of which we took advantage of. The pool is small, but was adequate to cool us down on a 101 degree day. The campground store sells limited food items and souvenirs. The campground is located right off a busy commercial strip, so there is a fair amount of traffic noise, but the campground itself was very quiet. Stores nearby include Target, Lowes, and a Super Wal-Mart. There is easy access off I-90, but Reserve Road carries a lot of traffic and the stop lights seemed to last forever. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Nice park with lots of shade. There are 2 hots tubs and a pool. We used the hot tubs every night and it was a great place to hang and chat with the other campers. Typically game room and bicycle rentals for the kids. They have breakfast and ice cream socials every day. There is also small KOA store with groceries/beer/shirts/etc. Wal-Mart is just a couple of miles down the road. Montana's largest RV dealer is within a mile. The main road, Reserve St., is very busy and the traffic lights take forever, but there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance from the KOA. Wifi access only worked about 40% of the time which was very frustrating, I would have been very upset if it weren't included in the overnight rate. The weekly rate is a bargain for a KOA with these amenities now a days. There are so many things to do in Missoula and the surrounding area we could have easily spent two weeks here. Make sure you go to the visitor center located on the far side of town. They have information on hiking and biking and all the numerous things to do right in Missoula. I would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed over 1 night while traveling through. Nice, quiet CG, friendly staff. There was a newspaper left on every picnic table the next morning which we thought was a nice service. We saw the local police drive through CG twice. CG is next to a mobile home park which we thought might be a problem with noise but all was fine. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Campground was very full while we were here. Still, it met our needs. I was also concerned with the mobile home park that adjoins the campground, but there were no problems. Pool/hottub were good. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very clean pool and hot tub. Good location. Staff nice, and they knew where the Osprey
baseball team play, which is a plus to me. Worth the stop in a beautiful neck of the woods. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great camp ground. Nice and clean! wonderful play ground for the kids with a petting area. Cute baby goats, llama's, ducks, donkeys, sheep. Very cool! Everything was super clean, with friendly staff. We camped here in a camper.
The kids had fun! We had a special visit from Yogi at our trailer for my sons 9th birthday. Nice pool area and fabulous store and tv viewing room. Laundry was nice too!! The mini golf course needs a little repair but thats being picky. Fun place to stay if you have a family! The extra money is worth it. Staff extremely helpful and made the stay fun! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We chose this CG because it had an available spot, we were tired and the first CG we found was 100% occupied. It was clean, well maintained, the hook-ups were good and overall it was perfect for our overnight stay. A cheerful spot with a very nice staff. There is no reason not to use this CG when in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park was OK. There were no trees, sites were not level, some road noise, bathrooms were not clean. The bath stall doors were not aligned and three of the four would not lock and the fourth would not even close. We didn't use the pool or playground. There was an RV a few sites down from us and there was grass about a foot high all around his camper. Poor TV antenna reception and extra cost for Wi-Fi. However, the staff was friendly, adequate space between sites, the store was well stocked and close to Missouri. Good for an over nighter. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
A very friendly RV park. The only complaint is that the sites aren't level and the sewer connection is too far back for a MH w/ towed. We had to place our front tires on blocks as the tires were coming off the ground with the leveler. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed our stay at Jellystone. The bathrooms were fabulous and the facilities were very nice. We only stayed one night so we were disappointed that we didn't get to use more of the amenities. Our only complaint was that the sign by the road was not large enough or well enough lit. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great family amenities here. Big pool with lots of chairs for sunning, and a small canopied area poolside as well. They even have a small splash pool with a fountain for the smallest kids. It was too hot to play on the playground, but it was a nice one. Mini-golf looked OK, but again, too hot during our stay to try it out. We only stayed one night because the temps were in the high 90s at the time, and there is no shade to speak of at this park. Downtown Missoula is about a 10 minute drive away. It was quiet even though right off the freeway. Level spots. Nice woman in the office. Fair price given all the amenities and proximity to town. There was also a huge RV sales/repair/supplies store(Bretz) a couple of exits east off the I-90 where they were selling propane cheap. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is out in the open without shade so satellite reception is good. They advertise cable TV, but our off the air antenna gets a better signal. "Cable" TV is only the local Missoula channels. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a good RV park but we will NEVER return. During our stay, there was a forest fire within sight of the RV park that enveloped the entire area in smoke. After staying two nights of our planned three night stay, we told them we simply could not handle the smoke any more and had to move on. They would NOT refund our money for the third night. Note that the park was at most 50% full and our cancelling would have no impact on reservations other than the loss of OUR $34. We moved on anyway. Rather than having a "happy camper" they chose to have 34 measley dollars. I put this down as seriously poor customer relations. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a super campground with mini-golf, swim pool, spray pool for kids, ice-cream socials nightly, arcade room, gift shop, friendly staff. They had sites for all types of campers from tent to huge RV. Not much for shade though. Bathrooms/showers were really nice and clean...even double shower curtains with the name "Jellystone" written on them....wow! We were really impressed with the amount of "features" offered here. The price $31 was high for our needs, but really nice place. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Great experience, made to feel welcome. Son loved Yogi bear. Great concept. We have stopped there several times in the past 8 years. Thank you. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Seems to be well organized and clean. My site was loose gravel and way too much slope, front bumper was on the ground and the rear tires were off the ground. It looked like many of the sites had the same problem. Sewer connection was way at the low end of the site, about 30 feet of hose needed. The extra cost WI-FI provider was lame, connections were low and I was very close to the office. I could receive but not send e-mail as my ISP and this WI-FI were not happy together. Because the site was poor and WI-FI was not free this park doesn't get a good rating from me. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This place is a dump! First, the pool is not heated. 2nd, Yogi does not make an appearance, (we stayed on June 29, and apparently that is not in season-this was why we stayed there for the kids). But, the biggest problem is the water system. We couldn't even flush the toilet without water and air spraying everywhere-forget using the sink. When I went to let the office people know so they could do something before someone else came in, she actually said, "Well, there was nothing wrong with my water" and left it at that. Our friends also had problems with the water and said their water was brown. This place is HORRIBLE and I would never go there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
I stayed here in June 2006 - see my comments below. A really nice park with nice pull-thrus. Good TV satellite reception. $30 per night was based upon the weekly rate. I stayed 9 days. I switched to Verizon this year and it may be a mistake. The Verizon cell signal is very poor in this park. I will probably stay here again next year and switch back to AT&T [Cingular]. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a very nice campground. The owner as well as the manager and his wife are very helpful. There is a nice recreation area for families (basketball, goofy golf, pool, playground and a wagon ride with Yogi. Also, the monthly rate is very good. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice park and convenient to the sights in the area. The spaces are big enough to accomodate the largest rigs and each space has a small lawn area & picnic table. The only problem we had was that our cell phones did not work while in the park - we use a Verizon card to access the internet and were not able to while staying here. We felt that after paying $32.00 a nite Wi-Fi should have been included. ( they charge $4 a day for the service ) We camped here in a Motorhome.
Easy access to this CG. Very friendly staff. Enjoyed the ice cream social especially since it was really, really hot. Beautiful flowers around the office. Clean laundry room. Would easily stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Paid 53.50 for "full hook-up". They advertised cable, wifi, and a pool. After I had already paid for the site, I was told that there was no cable hook-ups in the "big-rig" sites, the pool was closed and the wifi would be an extra charge. It is good for them that they already had my money, they shouldn't hold their breath until they get by business again. We will bypass this one everytime. Major ripoff, why so expensive with no amenities? Besides the fact, the sewer hook-up was so far from the rig, we could not use it. (We have a 20' hose.) Restrooms & showers were very clean, but the first shower that I went in had only cold water (quite refreshing). We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice park. No trees so satellite for TV and Internet was easy. Nice people working in the office. I would stay here again. Jim & Marys across the road have too many trees. I could not get a site that did not hinder satellite reception. You will like this clean, level park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
While this park probably had the nicest shower house I've ever seen, I can't give it a higher rating for two reasons. Road noise from the interstate highway and poor, muddy sites for water / elec. only sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.
WiFi is now at extra charge. Sites large and level. Road noise minimal. Did not like the fact that rigs came in at all times of the night shows lack of security. Workcampers very friendly and helpful. Would use as overnight. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Easy access, Big Rig Friendly, ice cream socials, nice pool, large spaces with grassy area, WIFI included in rate, very helpful staff, will visit again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Extra clean, quiet even through next to I-90 but below and no road noise. Big wide sites and easy in and out. Wifi worked great. Will stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is 5 miles north of Missoula off I-90 at exit 96 then 1 mile north on US 93. All but 29 sites are pull though, back in sites have water an electricity (20 and 30 amp) only. Pull through sites are long, level and well maintained. Shade is minimal as the trees have not had time to grow (park is only 5+/- years old). Great open field at the edge of the park allows you to give your dog some exercise. If you stay here plan for a side trip to Garnet Ghost Town or perhaps the Smokejumpers School -- both are worth a visit. We camped here in a camper.

This park has pretty easy access and the sites were easy to navigate in and out of. The managers were friendly and the park was clean. There were picnic tables at each site. They also have a store. We camped here in a camper.
