Murray Bay Campground (Mt)

Nestled high in the Rocky Mountains along the scenic shores of the Hungry Horse Reservoir, Murray Bay Campground offers a rugged escape surrounded by towering peaks. Located less than 30 miles from the Continental Divide, this USFS-managed site provides a quintessential Montana wilderness experience. Whether you are looking to spend your days boating on the reservoir, fishing the local waters, or exploring the surrounding trails, the area is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts and those seeking peace in the high country.

The campground features 20 sites, split between reservable spots and first-come, first-served options, making it a flexible choice for both planners and spontaneous travelers. Facilities are rustic, including vault toilets and fire rings for evening gatherings. While there are no utility hookups available, the site is well-suited for tent campers, car campers, and self-contained RVs looking for a traditional forest experience.

With a 16-day stay limit, Murray Bay is ideal for families and adventurers who want to immerse themselves in nature for an extended period. The diverse landscape supports a wide array of activities, including swimming, hiking, and big game hunting during the appropriate seasons. It is an excellent destination for those who prefer a back-to-basics approach to camping in one of the most beautiful regions of the American West.
