Forget Glacier: Montana State Park with Camping and Water Sports
Original source: Islands

Black Sandy State Park, located at 3,835 feet on the western edge of Hauser Reservoir, offers 29 campsites with electricity and boat slips. Unlike overcrowded Glacier National Park (3.1 million visitors in 2025), this park remains under the radar, though it is becoming increasingly popular in summer. Maximum trailer length is 35 feet; electrical hookups available May 1 to November 30. Day-use fee for non-Montana residents is under $10 per car.
