Using RV Parks And Campgrounds East Montana

By Nelda Powers


When planning a vacation there can be no better place to start than the RV parks and campgrounds East Montana. The camping areas offer the best accommodations available in the North Western United states. The camp sites and adjoining recreational vehicle hook-ups offer the most beautiful landscapes, lakes and rivers in the country.

One of their newest camping areas to open is called Buffalo camp. It is a very primitive site that can only be accessed by driving over miles of dirt and gravel roads. This camping area is only for tents at this time but it offers typical amenities for visitors. Because it is a primitive site you must carry your supplies to the camp site and carry them back out when you leave.

This site has some accommodations for the campers that make it a good spot to set up your tent. There is fire pits already established, you may bring your pets and there are public restroom facilities. The activities available are far too many to list but a few are hiking, bird watching, horseback riding, picnicking and wildlife viewing. This site is open from May to November for visitors and campers.

The Makoshika, or Bad lands, is another popular camping area. The area houses fossil remains and displays of triceratops and tyrannosaurus dinosaurs. You can visit sites that have fossilized foot prints from these ancient animals as well as sites that are sacred to the Lakota Indians who are indigenous to this area. This site also offers camping, day use and a number of amenities that improve the experience for everyone. You will find gift stores as well as a number of other activities for you and your family.

The limit of days you may remain camping at Makoshika is thirty. There are plenty of activities available to keep you busy every day if that is what you are looking for. In season you can go deer and bird hunting or choose to observe the wild life and birds from binoculars or a camera lens. As with most other camping sites your pets are welcome but must be kept on leashes while at the park. You can also do some amateur archaeology, geology and paleontology while camping here.

Medicine Rocks was named because the resident Indians came to them to conjure big medicine for the tribal hunting parties. The area is primarily sand stone rock formations and the wind and weather has them carved up like Swiss cheese. This park is relatively small compared to others but was described as "fantastically beautiful" by Teddy Roosevelt in the late 1800s.

Brush Creek camping area holds a two hundred eighty acre lake. It runs clear and deep and is available for swimming and boating. There is no fishing from this lake though because the mineral content will not support fish. There are fire rings and restroom facilities at this camp area and it has a boat ramp and docking area for boats. The chemical content the water has is not dangerous to humans for swimming or wading.

If you find yourself traveling through the RV parks and campgrounds East Montana you will find many beautiful places to camp. The general landscape of this state lends itself to recreation and history as few other states can. Everyone should see this state from a camp site.
