Missoula KOA
Overview

As a KOA Holiday designated park, it offers enhanced amenities and diverse lodging options, including spacious full-hookup RV sites and cozy cabins, ensuring a comfortable stay for those navigating the Pacific Northwest corridor.
Location & Surroundings
Conveniently located near the intersection of I-90 and Highway 93, the park offers an easy transition from the road to your campsite. While it sits within reach of Missoula’s vibrant urban center and the University of Montana, the park remains surrounded by the majestic peaks of the Rocky Mountains. The nearby Clark Fork River provides a tranquil setting for fishing or floating, allowing visitors to enjoy the quintessential Montana outdoors without sacrificing proximity to city services and supply runs.

This facility is meticulously designed for guest comfort, featuring a seasonal heated pool and hot tub that serve as a social hub during the summer. Families enjoy the on-site mini-golf course and playground, while travelers with pets appreciate the clean, fenced KampK9 dog park. A unique highlight is the snack bar, which serves a popular pancake breakfast and fresh pizza delivered directly to your site, complemented by reliable high-speed Wi-Fi for those needing to stay connected.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Staying at this location puts you in a prime position to explore the local culture of downtown Missoula, famous for its craft breweries and artisan boutiques. For those seeking adventure, the Rattlesnake National Recreation Area offers miles of pristine hiking and mountain biking trails just minutes away. Additionally, many guests use the park as a strategic jumping-off point for a scenic day trip to Glacier National Park, located just a few hours to the north.
Who This Park Is Best For
This park is an excellent match for family road trippers who value structured activities and a social environment over a primitive camping experience. Because it features wide, level pull-through sites, it is also highly recommended for big-rig owners seeking a hassle-free stopover with easy navigation. It is the perfect fit for travelers who want to immerse themselves in Montana’s mountain culture by day while returning to a secure, amenity-rich resort by night.

We stayed in one of the cabins for several days. Absolutely charming place! The staff was amazing and so very helpful. Jan was extremely knowledgeable about the area. The grounds were meticulously kept. Access to the town and shopping was great and you had no idea how close it was. Couldn’t hear the traffic at all! Would love to come back!

From the bank gain of our trip on the property, we enjoyed great service from all associates from the front desk to the people on the property, helping us with hook ups, advice, and making us stay comfortable. It was a great park with lots of amenities so we enjoyed. Thanks to the cooks who made us breakfast And the people who escorted us and took care of our the needs. Great staff. Look forward to returning.

We were frankly flabbergasted by the charm, cleanliness, and friendliness of the campground and staff. When traveling in our class B Sprinter we often just stealth camp but decided to stay here while driving to a family wedding to relax in a central location in Missoula. Reading other reviews this campground seemed a safe bet. Although close to the “main drag” of Reserve, it was surprisingly quiet and insulated from the nearby bustle. We were given a tent site which was lovely, a grassy spot with level gravel drive to park on, within easy walking distance to either of two nearby clean and functional showers/restrooms. Although we didn’t bring our dog on this trip, the campground is very dog friendly with dog parks as well as some sites featuring built in outdoor pens. The area is very walkable and easy to find standard chain restaurants nearby within easy walking distance. After visiting with neighbors we had a wonderful nights sleep with windows open. In the morning, we were surprised to receive an invitation to a complimentary breakfast which was a great touch, hosted by friendly staff. We continued on our journey refreshed and well fed which is always a wonderful thing. Will definitely stay again when our travels take us through the western part of the state.

The friendly staff goes the extra mile by providing a hearty free breakfast buffet each morning. I also appreciated the little touches including blow dryers in the women’s bathroom. The staff, extra touches, and great amenities made our day!

Bismarck KOA great. Billings, Montana KOA wonderful. Great Falls, Montana KOA amazing! West Glacier KOA amazing and gorgeous! Missoula KOA not great! We checked in on 8/12/2025 around 3:26pm and we understand checkout on 8/13 is 11:00 am. Unfortunately, my husband had a meeting at 11:30 am to 1:30 pm and we asked if we can stay a little longer. Joyce at the front office said No. We offer to pay for. 1/2 of day. Joyce said No and told us that we need to pay an additional full day rate for the extra 2 1/2 hours. I do not think this is fair. We told Joyce we will be leaving on 8/13/2025 headed to Yellowstone KOA and told her not to touch our reservations. Joyce upset me, she was not nice and not accommodating to our needs. We left before 2:00 pm and Missoula KOA can still rent site C02. Joyce is the reason I rated Missoula KOA a one. We love KOA and we have been traveling around the United States. This was a bad experience.
