Great spot to chill and appreciate nature and the loons. Too bad the jet skis and motor boats scare them so bad Camp host was wonderful. Found me an open campsite for 2 nights Early morning birding was amazing as were the mosquitoes Spots were spaced nicely and the bathrooms very clean Very nice spot a little off the beaten path Breathe full grown Larch Trees are amazing. And a really nice part no recent fire scars

This is my favorite lake in Montana! We stayed at the hiker/biker site (we were cycling the Great Divide route), and the camp hosts were so friendly and accommodating. They came out to greet us upon our arrival and showed us to our site-- right on the water! The hiker/biker site is not only a prime spot, but it can accommodate many people, making it great for those of us hikers/bikers who can't always make reservations in advance.

We really enjoyed our couple days at Holland Lake Campground. The view is wonderful. Check out the photo from our spot at site 3. We rented kayaks and paddled the full length of the lake and it was gorgeous. The campground host Curt was super friendly and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Breathtaking views without the strenuous hike! Accessibility info and site description of the day use area/picnic site: The road is paved most of the way there- no treacherous forest service roads to get to this location. Follow the signs to the day use area, just past the first campground. The parking lot is an open, dirt-covered area and does not have disabled/van-accessible parking spaces. The short trail to the recreation area is a wide dirt/gravel path that goes from the parking lot up and over a small hill to the large entrance sign. Once there, the public restroom is to the left, and two picnic areas are up on the hill on either side. Continuing toward the lake, there is no particular trail. The landscape slopes downhill and the ground is mostly grassy. Two benches offer a beautiful view of the lake, or continue heading down toward the lake to find additional picnic tables to the left and right. At the waterline, there's a small gravel beach area that has soft, uneven terrain. Total distance from the center of the parking area to the edge of the lake is about 350 feet. There is a $5 day use fee. This was my first time visiting Holland Lake and I loved it so much we went back the next day! We brought a wheelchair for my husband's grandma, and didn't have too much trouble pushing the wheelchair until we got close to the picnic tables on the right side by the lake, where there were some soft spots and and roots/pinecones. The only area I had difficulty walking was the gravel beach area, as the ground was soft and uneven. It was surprisingly quiet and peaceful while we were there, with only a couple of other visitors coming and going, though I imagine it's a different experience in the summer months.

If you keep going past the paid sites there are some free ones that are a little bit tucked away and are absolutely stunning like the rest of the land.

Beautiful hidden gem by the scenic route. Must visit.

This a wonderful campground! The campground hosts; Denise and Bob, were absolutely AMAZING!!! They checked on us when they drove by to see if we needed anything, we needed firewood and Bob was so kind he brought it to us!! FANTASTIC SERVICE! The bathrooms were the BEST I'VE EVER SEEN, they were cleaned multiple times a day, smelled good (imagine that a campground bathroom smelling good, well it's true!), & no bugs! The views are so beautiful and the lake water is pristine! Don't miss this beautiful campground and make sure you take the hike to the Holland Falls, breath-taking views! Will come again and RECOMMEND to EVERYONE! Thanks for such a wonderful experience!

This place has the most beautiful view! We stopped in to have lunch and continue on our way. Found a picnic table by the water and enjoyed the scenery. The campground was full and looked like each site had plenty of space.

Cleanest campground we’ve ever visited! The bathrooms even had flush toilets with a sink, which was very nice. Even if you’re “roughing it,” sometimes it’s nice to be able to wash your hands. The campsite host was super nice and helpful. We camped here opening weekend of the season (5/11/19), and nearly every spot was taken by the time we arrived at 11:00 am, so we got very lucky! We noticed afterwards that some sites can be reserved in advanced online, so we will do that in the future. The lake is a beautiful emerald green surrounded by mountains. Lots of people were kayaking or boating, and there was a designated swim area in the day use area (which also has a small fee). Overall, a wonderful area that we will visit again and again.
