Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
This property is located on the Madison River at the headwaters of the Missouri River! It has views of surrounding mountain ranges including the Bridgers, Tobacco Roots, & the Spanish Peaks. It is also minutes from downtown Three Forks, MT for dining and shopping. On-site activities include fishing , swimming, hiking, biking, boating/floating, wildlife viewing, bird watching, and stargazing under the big sky. The camping area even has enough space to accommodate grazing horses. With open grassy fields and a large wooded area there is plenty to be explored in this Montana outdoor paradise. Address and Directions: On I-90 exit on 278 you will be on "Frontage Rd" go east to "Old Town Road" than turn east on "Old Town Main Street" LOOK FOR THE YELLOW ARROWS (they say Madison Islands). Once you’re off the freeway and on old town Road come to an intersection which is old town Main Street. Turn right at old town Main Street and very quickly on your left. You’ll see an old rustic building on your left with a fifth wheel parked next to the fence. You enter the property between the old rustic building and the fifth wheel RV to get into the field and you’ll see several reflectors with numbers on them. Easiest entry is off of Main Street. Enter just in front of the Parked RV and make your way into and through the field.

Site 15 - Madison River Retreat
I moved up to a site by the river since no one was there. I would recommend staying there if it’s available it was beautiful, the campsite is very straightforward just a field and markings for sights. It close to a little shop and right off the highway, very convenient for a roadtrip!

Could not find the place at all. Directions are horrible. Called the owner and didn't get a call back for hours and we had to find a different place to stay. Feel like I've been scammed and will try to get money back.
