A Place of Tranquility

Whether you’re seeking adventure or solitude, you’ll find it here in Big Sky Country. From the jagged Rocky Mountains to the expansive Great Plains. Green Acres Ranch is home to some of the most beautiful wildlife in the country. The town of Thompson Falls is filled with friendly residents, affordable eatery’s and unique trinket shopping.

Michelle's Private Campground

Hello!  Not just motorcycle friendly, all private vehicles and bicyclers welcome!

This is a cozy spot for small tent camping.  

I am less than 5 minutes from the interstate, exit 47. There is a dirt road for the last 2/3 mile.

If you just need a safe spot to set up your tent, this is the place.  Not fancy, but private and next to forest service/ mountain :)

I have 4 tent sites, with access to water, electricity and wifi.   There is a camp toilet, just a simple one with a privacy cabana.  But, hey-better than the bushes!

Left, grassy knoll and rv site, right to get to sites 1 - 4

Camp Kapapa Old US Hwy 93

We are a family-oriented eco-friendly campsite located on the beautiful Flathead Lake of Elmo, Montana. With direct access to the lake and an hour's drive to Glacier National Park.

 Whether you are a family or only one person, we are here to make your stay at our campground an enjoyable one.

 Our campground is one of the last places along the shores of Flathead Lake that is pristine and undeveloped.

On the platform is a picnic table, personal grill and rocking chair.

We had a lovely dinner at the dining table with amazing view of the lake.

Site 3 has a wooden platform where you can set up your tent and pull your car up next to it. 

The firepit is huge and has plenty of seats for everyone. We decided not to have a fire, since it was pretty smoky during our visit. 

One of our favorite activities was reading in the hammock!

If you want to use the communal kitchen, you can pay a small gratuity and have access to the utensils.
