Flint Creek Campground

Imagine a serene woodland escape surrounded by towering conifers and the tranquil murmur of Flint Creek—this is Flint Creek Campground in Philipsburg, Montana. This small, year-round campground features just 10 sites, offering a peaceful retreat perfect for those seeking a rustic, back-to-nature experience. Campers can enjoy partial shade among the trees and easy access to Flint Creek, ideal for fishing enthusiasts or those drawn to the gentle sound of flowing water.

Located within the breathtaking Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest, this campground sits at an elevation of 5,500 feet. While the sites accommodate tents, trailers, and small RVs, it’s essential to note the lack of water pumps, meaning visitors must bring drinking water or treat stream water. Amenities include picnic tables, fire rings, and clean double-vault toilets, ensuring a comfortable yet minimalist stay. The area is rich with wildlife, including deer, elk, and even bears—bear-proof lockers are provided to encourage safe food storage. Quiet hours from 10 PM to 6 AM preserve the area's calm, making it a haven for relaxation.

Just a 10-minute drive away, Georgetown Lake offers additional recreation opportunities like boating, fishing, and enjoying the stunning mountain views. For a more secluded picnic area, Echo Lake lies a short 15-minute drive from the campground. Flint Creek Campground is a perfect choice for weekend getaways, hunting trips, or outdoor adventures in an idyllic Montana setting.
