Fairy Lake Campground

9 sites · RV, Tent

The high elevation Fairy Lake campground is rugged, remote, and good old fashioned fun.

The campground is small and nestled into the forest. There is a trail from the campground that leads to Fairy Lake—they gave it this magical name for a reason.

Hike to Sac peak! It's an intense elevation gain, but so worth it.

Fun place to camp, not too far away from Bozeman—about an hour's drive or so. The last seven miles to the trailhead (Sacagawea Peak) and the campground is pretty rough, but worth the effort. Cold lake, but swimmable. There used to be a rope swing—at least it was there last season... The hike up to Sacagawea is fun and also worth the effort. Goats for daaaaays.

We camped there the first weekend it was open. It was awesome. Road up there is not great but had a wonderful time. We actually stayed here not Gypsy Lake. Ooops. It was great.
