We are located at 24th and St. Charles Street in Fort Benton. Turn off at Fort Benton's Truck Route 80 proceed down hill to Junction 387, turn left on Junction proceed to stop sign. Turn left at stop sign, go one block, turn right, we are located at 2410 Choteau Street.
We stayed here almost a month following our daughter & son-in-law kayaking down the Missouri River. Very nice campground & wonderful people running it. Pet friendly, gravel sites with lots of grass. Laundry on site. , within walking distance to town. Full hookups.
Stay at the fairgrounds if you can. We stopped here and were basing our stay on reasonable prices that were on line. 30 to 35 seemed fair. It was 56 dollars. It was late in the day and I was surprised about the price, but we went ahead and agreed to stay. We wanted to do our laundry, but the manager/owner said to come back later and mentioned we could use laundromat in town. When I called later, no answer. Also, owner/manager was not available next morning so we could not do laundry. Also, no wifi code was given when we checked in. I called and texted for that info, and info was given to me at around 4:30 am. Weird! No hand soap in bathroom, which probably should have been included given what they charge. We don't mind paying 50 to 60 if place warrants it. This one definitely did not. One place that is worth the price is Prewitt rv park in Cascade Montana. Now, that's the ticket!
I needed their accommodations to empty what we had accumulated over the weekend. I gave them a call and the lady was super sweet and told me where it was located. She said she was leaving for a bit so I offered to pay and she said consider it a freebie!!! This just adds to our belief that FORT BENTON is full of awesome people!!!
We work in the area and stay for roughly 4-6 weeks. Owner is very accommodating, and helpful. We also have been staying in the Fort Benton area for the past 14 years, for work related purposes. The kids can play freely, and the locals are aware of the kids.
Best part is when the ice cream truck stops by.
Overall I would recommend this stay for the small town, there are activies throughout the summer in the downtown district. If you are expecting High end KOA or luxury park with a list of rules and strict enforcement this isn't it. Everyone knows everyone, and there is a mutual respect.
**I also want to add the previous review from a gentleman, never once came to a parent about the kids, asked the kids for privacy, or mentioned anything to the park owner until the next day, he also never moved a picnic table to his area, the toys he is referring too were around a trailer that belong to the families. The kids were in bed by 9, and were around camp for an hour. The kids may have been more loud than he liked, but it definitely was not past "quiet time" or after dark.
