White Sandy Campground

This is a Public campground for tents and RVs.

Reserve sites ahead through the campground's reservation system; some loops may hold first-come sites.

*** You must occupy your campsite every night that you have reserved. If you do not show up for 24 hours from "Check-In Time" (2:00 PM), you forfeit the use of that site and are not entitled to any refunds or discounts. ***

*** You must occupy the site you reserved and cannot change sites, or move to a different loop of the campground.***

Summer is the heart of the season here — warm days, long evenings and the fullest amenities, but also the biggest crowds. Late spring and early fall are quieter and often more comfortable; many sites close for winter once the cold sets in.

White Sandy Campground is reached by public road; see the campground's posted directions for the final approach.

Book through the official reservation site linked on this page well ahead of summer weekends.

On-site and nearby you'll find Water Sports, Windsurfing, Winter Sports, Wildlife Viewing, Water Access, Biking.

The surrounding country supports the classic the rivers, reservoirs and mountain lakes of Montana mix of outdoor recreation, and anglers will find rainbow, brown, brook and cutthroat trout, walleye, smallmouth bass and northern pike in nearby waters.

Check the weather and any fire restrictions before you go, carry plenty of water, and be bear- and wildlife-aware where applicable. Cell service is often limited at campgrounds — download maps and tell someone your plans.

Practice Leave No Trace: pack out all trash, keep a clean site, and store food securely where wildlife is present. Observe posted quiet hours, fire restrictions and pet rules — campfire bans are common in dry summer months.

Reserve early for summer weekends and holidays, or arrive midday on a weekday for first-come sites. Bring layers, a headlamp, and your own water if potability isn't confirmed, and double-check the rig-length and hookup situation before towing in.
