How booking works in Montana

There is no single system: each campground books through its managing agency. 230 campgrounds take no reservations at all, first-come, first-served. 109 campgrounds book through Recreation.gov.

For a park's own hours, entrance fee, and boundary, see Montana state parks on publiclandsdb.com. Camping away from a developed campground is a land rule, not a campground: Montana BLM land on publiclandsdb.com has each unit's dispersed-camping rule and boundary.

Narrower lists

By agency

230 first-come campgrounds need no reservation; 2 stay open year-round ; and 52 sit on a named lake . By agency: 5 Army Corps of Engineers campgrounds , 14 BLM campgrounds , 8 Bureau of Reclamation campgrounds , 316 National Forest campgrounds , and 14 National Park Service campgrounds .

Common questions

How do I reserve a campground in Montana?

It depends on who runs it. Of the 357 public campgrounds on record here, 230 are first-come, first-served with no reservations and 109 book through Recreation.gov.

Where can I camp for free in Montana?

108 public campgrounds in Montana charge no fee: Anderson Camp, Ashley Lake North, Ashley Lake South Campground, Balanced Rock Campground, and 104 more. Free camping away from campgrounds (dispersed camping) is a land-management rule, not a campground; see the managing agency.

Is boondocking legal in Montana?

On BLM land, dispersed camping (boondocking) is generally allowed under the agency's rules. BLM limits dispersed camping to 14 days within any 28-day period (stay limits vary by field office), asks campers to stay at least 200 feet from lakes and streams, and says most areas need no permit or reservation (blm.gov, read 2026-09-26). Each BLM unit's own rule and boundary are on publiclandsdb.com.

What are the best campgrounds in Montana?

This site doesn't rate campgrounds. The most fully documented here are Many Glacier Campground (20 sourced facts), Apgar Group Sites (17 sourced facts), and Chinamen's Campground (17 sourced facts); the table lets you sort every campground by agency, booking, season, and fee.
