Montana Creek Campground

Great office staff, nice pull through for our 36’ fifth-wheel. Some sites have Electric is 50 amp hook up. Communal Water fill up shed for fresh water fill up. You must request sites with septic hook up or electric and pay more, understandably. Porti-potty available.

Large spacious campsites. Very nice campground right next to the creek. They even have little benches down by the creek.

3.5 stars. Pros: loved being next to the creek, fun spot for kids to play in the water, good fishing, clean portapotties, overall well-maintained, great loop for kids biking or walks, electric hookups. Cons: right off the highway (lots of traffic and train noise). Smaller sites, somewhat close together. Mosquitos were pretty bad.

Our planned stop at Three Bears Trapper Creek Inn & RV Park was a bust—their large pull-throughs were closed due to sewer issues—but they recommended Montana Creek Campground about 20 miles south. We called, and they told us to come on in. Located just off the Parks Highway/AK-3, the friendly campground manager gave us a map of the dry-camping sites that were available, including a few in the tent section that could handle our 40’ fifth wheel and told us to pick a spot. We walked the grounds and chose back-in site 13 in the tent area, which was more than long enough for our rig and F450—we even got to put the back patio down. We needed to top off our water tank, but the spigot had weak pressure, so the fill took a while. Afterward, we backed up in the large parking lot and headed to our site. We had 2 bars LTE on Verizon and 1 bar roaming on T-Mobile. The site had a picnic table, fire pit, and a nice stand-up grill. The campsites on the north side have 30 AMP but no water. Toward the back of the campground are more wooded pull-through and back-in dry-camping sites—some well spaced with privacy from shrubbery—but this area isn’t tall-rig friendly. The campground filled up over the weekend with locals from the Anchorage area. The same office also registers campers for the Montana Creek Recreation Site across the street, which is essentially a back-in parking lot for smaller rigs. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay—especially with the chance to get in some fly fishing.

We had a great time and all our neighbors were polite and friendly. The only reason I give it a 4 is because of the no dumping and no water at the site. We I have paid the same fee for a full hook up site in most places and this is electric only. The sites are very close together. There isnt any free dump sites and the "dump" site 2 miles up the road is a odd old ran family buisness we called to ask if they were open to dump they Said yes and no one was insight when we arrived so we just drove back to Houston to dump for 15.00. Honestly next time I think we will just go for free to the sustina river to boondock. Although having a reservation during busy holidays is a plus. If you choose to boondock you may need to fill up water in talkeetna or houston. I don't think any if the convenience stores in the area have potable water. Overall we had a great time!!! Its ATV friendly which is nice can't ride in the campsite but ALOT of places to ride around the area.
