About This Location

Discover the historic Cave Point Group Use Area on Canyon Ferry Reservoir. Enjoy primitive, year-round camping in the heart of Montana's Rocky Mountains.

Located at the northern tip of Canyon Ferry Reservoir, the Cave Point Group Use Area offers a unique window into Montana's rich mining history. Named after the early settlement of Cavetown, this site sits near the path of the original horse-drawn ferries that once transported miners across the Missouri River. The surrounding terrain provides a rugged, scenic backdrop that reflects the wild beauty of the Rocky Mountains, making it an excellent destination for those looking to connect with the region's storied past.

This primitive site is managed by the USACE and remains open for year-round access. The campground is designed for group use and features essential amenities including vault toilets and picnic tables. Visitors have direct access to the reservoir for fishing, making it a prime spot for anglers and those who enjoy quiet time by the water.

Cave Point is best suited for campers who appreciate a back-to-basics experience. Because the area offers no hookups, it is ideal for self-sufficient RV travelers and tent campers who prefer a more rustic, off-the-grid adventure in a beautiful, historic setting.
