Gorgeous park. This is a really beautiful spot, especially with all the autumn foliage right now. Plenty of camping spots, and clean vault toilets. I did a little hiking on the trail, and wandered around a bit, but will definitely be back to camp.

Nice drive to the park. Very cool autumn colors. Waterfall is amazing and is less than a 5 minute walk uphill to get to it from the campground entrance of the park. Lots of huge boulders that are fun for the kids to climb and even a dubbed rock slide that young kids can slide on (with a smooth surface so no surprises) in this park and at the campsites. Go get lost!

What an awesome ticked away location! The camping looks really quite and private, tucked in the trees along the creek. Plus the small waterfall is right outside the campsite! Theres a great moderate, wide trail that you can hike until youre tired. Just past the first mile you come to the first bridge which is a good turn around, but just another quarter mile is the service bridge which has a cool tiny side stream waterfall. We hiked three miles in to the old cabin and turned around there. Love the place!

Clean bathrooms, quiet, nice camping spots, overflow parking, hiking trails. There is a short hike to the waterfalls or you can take the longer hike and look over the falls. Beautiful area, lots of cliffs and if you bring binoculars you can watch the mountain goats traverse the cliffs. Discovery ski area, Georgetown lake, and Granite ghost town are all nearby. The sweet shop in Phillipsburg has the biggest and best candy selection in Montana but they are closed on Saturdays. If you take a left at Porters corner and go 16 miles you can spend the day searching for Sapphires at Gem Mountain.

Beautiful setting, lots of green mixed with fall colors this time of the year. You must use caution when getting there and back. Road is narrow and corners are obscured by vegetation. Obey the 10 mph speed limit, be cautious.

Stopped here for a quick hike while driving thru the area. Very nice and peaceful spot, hike was easy and path was well marked. $8 entrance fee for nonresident plates, dog-friendly. I would recommend it!

I hesitate posting this because of how cool this place is and getting over visited...but the views and waterfall is worth the trip alone

Very nice, well maintained campground in a very scenic canyon.Quiet and peaceful, good distance between most of the campsites.A beautiful waterfall is just a 2 minute stroll from the campground and for the more adventurous, theres a trailhead that can take you as far as you like up into the wilderness

Such a beautiful place to spend the day! The camping and day-use areas are clean and well maintained. You can hear the water from nearly every spot. There is an unpaved trail along the side of the creek that nearly spans the length of the site.

Nice place to tent camp or hike. Didnt see any bear, deer or big horn. Glassed a lot of mountainside. If you go there i would still advise to carry bear spray at a minimum.You can easily get a tent trailer or small trailr beyond the sign that says over 26 ft.....Hiked up to Lost Creek Bridge, 1 mile, no sweat, take water.

Super short drive and you can get right to the falls which are beautiful. Dont recommend jumping across even though the jump over is easy. The jump back is dangerous. 17 year old who is 63 didnt make it and ended up needed stitches. Be careful!!

It was a bit of a hike from the locked gate to the falls, but well worth it. Beautiful scenery along the way with informative signs telling of the landscape and geography. The falls were beautiful, especially with the snow and ice buildup.

Beautiful trail. One can hike 3 miles to the fall and an additional 5 miles on the trail for an 8 mile in-and-out. Be sure to wear bug spray because I was eaten even through my protective clothing.

Thank you Montana for this beautiful and well kept state park. Gorgeous hiking.

Review №31

Some trail areas have seasonal water on the path so wear hiking boots or waterproof shoes. You have to walk across rocks in creeks multiple times. Flies are active mid day, so bug spray is needed. Most of the trail is in the shade

Review №38

Some vehicles and dirt bikes rumbled by on the dusty gravel road, but otherwise our camyon campsite was peaceful. The vault toilet restroom was probably the cleanest Ive seen anywhere. Maybe thats evidence of its seclusion.

Wow! What a place. I didnt know anything about this place as we drove in, and admittedly I was worried we would be really close to the residential area that you drive through, but the campground is so long you dont have to worry about that. Its fairly primitive, pit toilet and a water pump. But the surrounding views are amazing. The walk up to the cure for the falls is easy and worth it. We also walked up to the bridge where we found many different kinds of berries. I wasnt to go back. We didnt see wildlife other than a few chipmunks and a pika. But its definitely goat and sheep country. Keep your eyes peeled

One of the best places to visit in the area. Amazing views of wildlife, cliffs, and waterfall are among the scenes. Camping during the summer months makes it the perfect tourist destination for someone new to the area.
