Carbella Rec Site

Nestled along the banks of the scenic upper Yellowstone River, the Carbella Recreation Site offers a quintessential Montana outdoor experience. This primitive BLM campground is perfectly positioned for those looking to immerse themselves in the rugged beauty of the Rocky Mountains, located just 20 miles north of Yellowstone National Park. Its riverside setting provides a serene backdrop for anglers and nature lovers alike.

The site is designed for simplicity and connection to the landscape, offering essential amenities including picnic tables, grills, and restrooms. A designated boat ramp makes this an ideal stop for those looking to launch a craft or enjoy easy fishing access along the river. Please note that as a primitive site, there are no utility hookups available, making it best suited for tent campers or self-contained vehicles seeking a back-to-basics experience.

Whether you are planning a trip to the nearby national park or looking for a quiet spot to cast a line in the Yellowstone, Carbella provides a convenient and accessible home base. The site is open year-round, offering a unique opportunity to experience the river in every season. Visitors should always check for local alerts regarding river conditions before arrival to ensure a safe and enjoyable stay.
