State Rt. 257 east 7 miles, Superior, MT
Tent campers after genuine seclusion and creek fishing will get the most from this place. Sites sit close to Trout Creek with natural vegetation blocking your neighbors, and the drive from Superior takes under 15 minutes. Midweek in July or August tends to be calm with open sites
No potable water on-site means hauling everything you'll drink and cook with. Larger trailers and RVs won't fit the sites. Mosquitoes are legitimately bad, and recent reviews flag installed entry gates that may block access even when the campground shows as open.

<p>This forested campground is cool and shady. Sites are spacious with lots of screening. Roads are graveled. Several sites are creekside. Rustic, woodsy, forest camping. Suited for pick-up campers, tent camping, and small travel trailers.</p>
The elevation is 3,000 ft. Campground is located adjacent to Trout Creek in heavily wooded area of Western Larch, Ponderosa and some Alder. The understory and middlestory is heavy with grass, shrubs and Alder which provides seclusion between sites. This is a pretty little rustic campground with the sound of Trout Creek always in the background and fishing from some sites.
Services provided Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day
Water spigots are located only in the picnic area.
The parking aprons are dirt and grass. There is an RV waste station available for a fee at the Quartz Flat campground (National Forest) 10.1 miles east of Superior, MT on Interstate 90 (at the rest area).

Summer brings the most reliable conditions, with daytime highs in the mid-60s to mid-80s°F and cool nights in the 40s-50s°F. Trails and gravel roads dry out, creek flows stay steady for fishing, and the riparian habitat fills with birds and insects. July and August see moderate weekend crowds but plenty of available sites during the week. Winter closes the campground under snow, and spring can be muddy as snowmelt swells the creek.
Summer is peak season with services available and reliable weather for camping and fishing.
