The Loon Lake campground is approximately 20 miles northwest of Libby on raod 471. The campground has 4 sites (two with tent pads), tables and fire rings and able to accomodate up to a 20' rv. Cmpground roads and parking spurs are gravel and native material. Amenities include a vault toilet, an undeveloped acces for small boats.
From Libby, follow Hwy 37 north to Pipe Creek road 567 and take a right. Follow the Pipe Creek road for 17 miles, turn left onto Seventeen mile road 471 and follow for approximately 3 miles. The campground will be on your left.
Came in from the West, quite a hard road. Come in from the east for best results.
Rustic, no amenities. 4 campsites. Lake is partly filled in with mud, grasses, and lily pads. Usually quiet and peaceful.
Very beautiful, very remote. Completely overgrown in some areas. Not for everyone, but if you like off the beaten path this is your place.
Very quiet night. Decent areas for pitching tents, fire rings with grates, and good size tables. Worth the drive out of town for the solitude.
No bear boxes or tree limbs for proper food storage was the only reason I drop it to four stars.
