Camping & Cabins
Choose from the following to find a site:
The Flathead has 31 developed campgrounds that provide a range of services, accommodations, and access. These range from campgrounds with roads, Wi-Fi, and cell phone coverage to more primitive locations with limited services. Of the 31 campgrounds, 13 are under management by a concessionaire through a special use permit.
There are currently two concessionaires that provide customer service and high-quality recreation experiences. Flathead Valley Campgrounds operate the Tally Lake, Big Creek, and Devil Creek Campgrounds, along with several sites around the Hungry Horse Reservoir. Big Sky Recreation Company runs the campgrounds at Holland Lake, Swan Lake, and Lindbergh Lake. For more information on Forest Service campgrounds managed by our concessionaires, please contact them directly.
- Flathead Valley Campgrounds: call (406) 752-7924 or visit their website.
- Big Sky Recreation Company: call (406) 210-8199 or email.
The main camping season on the Flathead National Forest is Memorial Day through Labor Day. While camping at one of the 31 camping areas provides varied accommodations and access, dispersed camping throughout the Forest is allowed and can give a one-of-kind camping experience. If you plan on camping away from a designated campsite, please research that area beforehand and follow all posted rules and regulations during your stay. Maximum stay is 16 days.
All cabins and some campgrounds may be reserved at Recreation.gov.
