About Campground

This campground, on the shoreline of Cooper's Lake near Ovando, Montana, is a semi-remote, developed campground which offers shady rest and a beautiful view of the lake and adjacent mountains. The Bob Marshall and Scapegoat wildernesses are 7 miles away by trail.

Directions

From the junction of Montana highways 83 and 20 (also known as "Clearwater Junction") travel east on Montana nighway 200 for 19.5 miles. Turn north on North Fork Blackfoot Road #5550 and follow the signs 12 miles on a gravel road to the campground.

I love this place. My husband and I were married there. It was a perfect Covid wedding, small and beautiful.

No potable water on-site.

Limited and awkward placing for tents.

Only one site has room for a small vehicle that will not be level.

Amazing view of mountains over the lake.

Lake surrounded by lake-front houses; feels a bit like camping in a neighborhood.
