Cute and clean Tally lake campsite!
Tent
PROS: This site was perfect for my solo camping trip with a tent, it would work well with a small camper too. There was wood already at the site, a firewood stand nearby, a fire pit, flat tent area and nice picnic table all exactly per the description. Easy to find, site is marked with a cute little sign.
15 min to whitefish downtown area, 20 min to the city beach access, 15 min to Tally lake ($5 day access thru the campsite area at the lake which has a nice launch for paddle boards, kayaks, small boats.). The state campgrounds for both whitefish/tally are typically booked out for ALL of Summer fyi so this is THE PERFECT site to be central for access to both lakes. LOTS of mountain biking, dirt biking and hiking trails nearby.
CONS: There is NO privacy at this site, main roads are on both sides along with homes in the area/other privately owned sites. My stay wasn’t in peak season (late June) but the road to tally lake was HIGHLY trafficked, 7-10 cars an hour if not more until at least 10pm if not later on the weekend which kicked up a LOT of dirt road dust. Not an issue if you plan on not being at the site much.
OVERALL AWESOME camp area, I’ll definitely be back as it’s centrally located to all the outdoor fun this area offers!
**No cell svc. as stated but however on Kuhns road just a few minutes from the site there is a little pit to park in with perfect cell svc (verizon)
