Finding RV Parks And Campgrounds East Montana

By Nelda Powers


There is no shortage of rv parks and campgrounds east Montana although they are not as numerous as the Western part of this state. This is a state that has a multitude of state managed lands that are also refuges for wild birds and animals. Many refuges support camping as well as day use activities.

A very new camping site that just opened near a national wildlife refuge is called Buffalo Camp. This site can only be reached by traversing five miles of bad road and is too primitive for anything other than tent camping. It is a pack in and pack out site that has no fee for campers and no limitation on the length of stay.

Although the area is primitive there are several activities available to you. You can take advantage of wildlife and bird watching opportunities, hiking or just relaxing for a few hours. There are fire rings and picnic tables for day use as well as campers, public restrooms are also available at this site.

In the Bad Lands you will find camp sites for tents, trailers and recreational vehicles. This area is famous for the dinosaur fossils that have been found here. You are able to walk in the foot prints of a triceratops and then go shopping in one of the gift shops available for you. This area is a little more commercialized than many sites and as such offers a much larger selection of activities for you and your family.

There is a thirty day limit on the camp sites in this area but you can do something different everyday that you are there. You may participate in amateur archaeology and geology while camping here. Or take up learning archery, horseback riding and wildlife photography while hiking or walking the area.

The camping area called Medicine Rocks was named by the Native American tribe that inhabited that area. The tribe would go there to prior to a hunt to get the Gods to make big magic for the hunters. This isn't the biggest park but it is probably the most scenic area for photography buffs. The sand stone rocks are carved by weather and fierce winds that wear holes through the stone and create spires that point to the sky.

Brush Lake is another beautiful camping site. It has deep and clear water and white sandy beaches. The mineral content of the water in this lake prevents fish from thriving in its waters. Fortunately the minerals do not affect humans in any way and are safe for recreational use. Boating and swimming is allowed and popular as well as many other recreational activities. You may use the fire rings and picnic areas as day use or set up camp and stay awhile. There is room for all modes of camper from tents to those who have motor homes to stay in.

If you find yourself traveling through the RV parks and campgrounds East Montana you will find many beautiful places to camp. The general landscape of this state lends itself to recreation and history as few other states can. Everyone should see this state from a camp site.
