Moon coming out on a beautiful night on Cooney, fireworks northeast, south Red Lodge mountain still snow on the runs, people laughing in the distance having fun, winds died so this sailboat not going anywhere, on the hook south of Red lodge camping area wow it really doesn't get any better than this !

Park Ranger and the camp host were both really great with answering all our questions and giving directions to camp and nearest local convenience store! The campground is clean and beautiful, right on the lake, but not much shade so come prepared!
A buddy and I where just passing through and needed a place to sleep. Nice camp ground, fare warning for people who want to tent camp, it's definitely aimed at more of an RV clientele than tent, they still have tent pads on most of the sites just got an RV park vibe from it. If you live in Billings I could definitely see it as a good weekend get away from the hustle of the city. Also all the roads into the area are gravel so expect your vehicle to get dirty 👍 definitely a pretty drive and a pretty place! Would recommend a stop! *Photo was taken at site T001 Red Arm Loop
