The Trail Enthusiast's Basecamp!

2 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Helena, MT

This five-acre oasis was once a landscape nursery. So given the close proximity to downtown we are a hidden sanctuary from the outside world, secluded by cottonwood trees and mature foliage. The site now serves as a wedding venue and offers views of Mount Helena to the South and the Sleeping Giant to the North. Learn more about this land: Pitch a tent in our aspen grove or park your camper/RV in the grassland field. You're close to downtown with lots of privacy/scenery. You'll have views of regal Mount Helena to the South and The Sleeping Giant to the North. The South Hill trail complex is a great place to explore as well as the Scratchgravels. The Missouri River is only 20 minutes away as well as Lake Hauser and Canyon Ferry. If new to the area and interested in history, we recommend the Tour Train. We also have several great breweries - our favorites include Ten Mile and Blackfoot Breweries (a perfect stop you can ride to after a trail ride/hike in the South Hills). This site is perfect for those wanting to explore Downtown Helena, it's renowned trail systems, but still sleep under the stars. Pets are allowed. Please make sure you pick up after them.

RV camping near Helena guide

Overview

Montana's capital city makes a great base for exploring this largely wild state, with lots of RV camping opportunities to boot. There are quite a few RV parks in and around town, along with Hipcamps on private farms, most of which only accommodate one or two groups of campers at a time. A few are located on or near the Missouri River or its lakes, many with picnic tables, dump stations, 50-amp hookups, toilets, and more. For a public, waterfront alternative, Black Sandy State Park has lots of RV campsites, all of which have electric hookups (available from May through November). Other public options include Missouri Headwaters State Park, where the Jefferson, Madison, and Gallatin Rivers converge, and Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest, which has over half a dozen RV camping areas spread across two districts: the Castle Mountain Range and the Rocky Mountain Range.
