About
Three Sisters Group Site is located within the scenic Lake Como Recreation Area on the Darby Ranger District of the Bitterroot National Forest in western Montana. Situated among pine trees adjacent to the outlet of 913-acre Lake Como at an elevation of 4,215 feet, this group site is primarily used for reunions, weddings, and family gatherings. The site features a 20x30-foot pavilion equipped with six picnic tables, a group-size BBQ grill, and two serving tables. A large fire ring surrounded by wooden benches provides a gathering area, and two vault toilets are on site. The campground can accommodate up to 75 people and 25 vehicles. No potable water, electricity, or firewood is provided, so campers must come prepared. Recreation opportunities abound in the area. A short walk leads to a trailhead for the 7-mile Lake Como National Recreation Loop Trail, suitable for hiking and mountain biking. The first quarter-mile is wheelchair accessible. Lake Como offers boating, fishing for rainbow and cutthroat trout and kokanee salmon, and swimming at a large sandy beach. A waterfall approximately 3.5 miles from the site cascades over fern-covered cliffs at the west end of the lake.
Directions
From Darby, Montana, travel north for 4 miles on Highway 93. Turn west (left) onto Lake Como Road. Follow for 3.5 miles. Three Sisters Group Site is located on the west side of the road, across from Rock Creek Horse Camp.
