Beautiful Canyon Ferry Lake is the most used and enjoyed water playground in Montana. Summer recreation includes swimming, boating and some of the best walleye and trout fishing in the state (home of the Canyon Ferry Walleye Festival and Perch Ice Fishing Derby). Winter activities include hunting, ice fishing and ice sailing! This KOA offers 57 Pull-Thru RV Sites with both full hookups and water/electric. It has Camping Cabins, Tent Sites, showers and restroom facilities, and is close to the Canyon Ferry Lake Boat ramp and docks! Amenities include Wi-Fi and complete laundry facilities. You'll also find storage facilities for your boats, trailers and campers. What? You forgot your beer and marshmallows? The convenience store offers almost anything you may need for a pleasurable camping experience. Enjoy horseshoes, volleyball, a kids' playground and more! If you are out on the lake too late, the KOA store has Heat and Eat meals to choose from, or the Silo Bar and Grill is open most days year round. Our staff is friendly and well-informed on everything about fishing, boating, RVing, and storytelling!

Great little campground. Reasonable prices, very well-maintained, nice bathrooms, wonderful library, and friendly staff. Owners are obviously present and on top of the details.
My wife and I have spent the last three summers at this campground. We love it! Near the water, clean campground, full hookup options, wifi, laundry, 24/7 bathroom and free showers with secure entry. All of this would normally be plenty. But, the owners, and staff, really seal the deal. They make you feel welcome! It means a ton.
I have stayed here twice over the years, both times in a small cabin, to ice fish in the late season. Both times the staff has been top notch, friendly and professional. This last trip, the staff was more than exceptional, thoroughly giving details that led to me catching more fish. They were accommodating when I decided to extend the trip an extra day. It is perfect if you are looking to just fish and come back to sleep and repeat the next day. The accommodations are more than adequate, clean and warm, quiet and peaceful. Bathroom amenities are a short walk and well maintained. Town is a short distance and if you want a hot meal after a day on the ice it is a short drive down the road. I highly recommend staying here if you're just looking to do a lot of fishing and want to stay close rather than driving a great distance back and forth. I was relieved that they had coffee every morning and was cheerfully greeted by a staff who understands the importance and meaning of guest service. Thank you for another great experience and I look forward to seeing this establishment again next season!
