Granite Creek Campgound is a large wooded campground nestled in the valley between high mountain peaks very near to the Gros Ventre Wilderness. The campground is located next to designated Wild and Scenic Granite Creek, offering excellent fishing opportunities right next to the campground. Nearby is the popular Granite Creek Hot Springs which is great fun for all ages for soaking in the water and the view after a hard day of recreating. Multiple trails are available very close to the campground and throughout the Granite Creek corridor for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking.

Hosts John and Kris are exceptional people, true HOSTS in every sense on the word, and Gary too, at the actual hot springs pool! I love going to this place on my four days off each week, during the summer months
This place is a piece of heaven on earth. Everywhere you look you’re surrounded by gorgeous scenery. There are deer and moose, fishing in the stream and so much more.
The campground is filled with tall pine trees which provide shade during the hot day. We actually slept in hammocks that hung between the trees. I would definitely recommend doing that! Such a fun experience.
It’s pitch black at night and the stars are out of this world (literally 😊). I can’t recommend this campground enough. Just know, it’s first come first serve. There are bathrooms onsite (holes in the ground) and fresh water on spicket.
This place was amazing as far as the views. The campground is clean and very well kept and best of all right beside a beautiful river. . But the road!!! It's a tough road, some gravel, some fist size rocks and mostly mud.
