Logan State Park sits on 17 acres along Middle Thompson Lake, part of the Thompson Chain of Lakes system near Libby. The campground offers tent, RV, and primitive sites with electric hookups, flush toilets, and showers. Sites run $5/night. Highway noise affects some areas, but sites farther from the road stay quieter.
Logan State Park accommodates both RV and tent campers, with ADA-accessible sites and group camping facilities available.
Weather and SeasonsSummer brings the best conditions. Typical highs reach the mid-70s to low-80s°F, with nighttime lows in the mid-40s to mid-50s°F. The lake warms enough for swimming, and fishing for trout and kokanee stays productive through the season. Weekends draw moderate crowds. Midweek visits or early/late summer timing mean quieter water and better site availability.
ElevationSet among the rolling forested hills of northwestern Montana, the park's gentle terrain makes it accessible for campers of all ages and abilities.
Natural Features and SceneryThe park occupies forested land between Middle Thompson Lake and the highway, with western larch, Douglas-fir, and ponderosa pine providing shade across the campground. The larch turn gold in fall. Middle Thompson Lake stretches out from the shoreline, part of a glacially-carved chain of three connected lakes. The elevation sits at 3,376 feet. Forest cover is dense enough to offer privacy at most sites, though lake views are limited to shoreline areas.
Geological RegionLogan State Park sits at the heart of the remarkable Thompson Chain of Lakes system, where Upper, Middle, and Lower Thompson lakes create a water wonderland carved by ancient glaciers. This interconnected aquatic playground is embraced by dense forests of western larch that burst into golden flames each fall, alongside stately Douglas-fir and aromatic ponderosa pine. The region's unique geology has created a perfect balance of deep, clear lakes and protective forest cover, making it an ecological treasure that supports diverse wildlife and offers endless recreational opportunities.
