Big Hole Boondockin' is located in Southwest Montana along the beautiful banks of the Big Hole River. River View Livestock, a 325 acre working cattle ranch, surrounds our camping areas which gives you the opportunity to enjoy a real Montana ranch experience. If you're not into the ranch lifestyle, hop on a raft, inner tube or kayak and float down the river enjoying a cold beverage. We also offer bank fishing on our private property. Stressed? Book some time with our emotional support animals and snuggle one of the pigs or cows to take some stress out of your life. These animals are part of our family and love to sit and relax with humans, begging for belly scratches and giving kisses. Whatever your camping dream is, our focused, friendly staff will work to achieve it. We look forward to hosting you and your family and friends and sharing our day to day dream life.

Great experience!
Holly was an amazing host! Stunning views of the Big Hole River - sites right on the river’s edge. Appreciated the very clean porta-potty. 30 minute drive to Dillon for full services (grocery stores, reasonable gas). The Hitching Post in Melrose sells ice and serves great food and beverages and is within walking distance. Within reasonable driving distance to see the sites - Bannack State Park ghost town, explore the hills along Trapper Creek Road with its old buildings and scenic views, Beaverhead Rock and Virginia City.

Cute spot by the river! We were the only ones there. Got to meet the piggies, they are so cute.

We had a great time camping on Holly’s land. Directions were clear and the site was as listed. We hope to stay here again soon.

There were some issues with the Porta Potty which the host said would be addressed. Host was very pleasant...This is beautiful and don't forget, rural country, the town small and inviting, especially the restaurant and fly shop. We were the only people on this land and am not sure how close the other sites were located. It was quite and the evening sound of the river was an extremely pleasant sound. Mornings were light rain and the sound of Sandpiper cranes.
