About

The 46-site campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservation system available. Sites cost $15 per night with an additional $5 for extra vehicles.

Some sites are equipped with bear-resistant food storage lockers. A food storage order is in effect on the Beartooth Ranger District from March 1 through December 1, requiring proper storage of all food and attractants. Nearby recreation includes Emerald Lake Campground, West Rosebud Trail (#19), and fishing access at Emerald Lake and West Rosebud Lake.
