About
Warm Springs Campground is a small, intimate campground located in the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest, approximately 10.5 miles west of Anaconda on Montana Highway 1 via Forest Road 170. The campground sits on two acres of lodgepole pine forest with Warm Springs Creek running adjacent to the sites, providing opportunities for fishing and wildlife viewing, particularly elk and smaller animals at dawn and dusk. The campground offers 6 campsites suitable for tent camping and smaller RVs or trailers up to 16 feet in length. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring. Basic amenities include vault toilets and drinking water. The surrounding area offers opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, and fishing, with nearby Georgetown Lake providing additional recreation options. This is a quiet, first-come, first-served campground that provides a more primitive camping experience in the Montana wilderness. The campground's small size and forested setting make it an ideal base for anglers and those seeking a peaceful mountain retreat away from larger, more developed campgrounds.
Directions
From Anaconda, drive west on Montana Highway 1 for approximately 10.5 miles. Turn onto Forest Road 170 and continue for 2.5 miles to the campground.
