Brush Lake State Park

What sets Brush Lake State Park Campground apart is its strikingly clear, mineral-rich waters—a rare sight for a prairie lake—and its tranquil, remote location ideal for nature lovers. Situated in northeastern Montana, just four miles east of Dagmar, this campground offers an appealing escape from the noise and bustle, surrounded by serene grasslands and a pristine, alkaline lake that defies the norm with its deep blue clarity.

The campground features 12 well-maintained sites accommodating both tents and RVs, with amenities such as electric hookups, drinking water access, fire rings, and ADA-accessible facilities. While shade and privacy are limited due to the lack of tree cover, campers can enjoy the lake’s day-use area, complete with a boat ramp, dock, and picnic spaces. Brush Lake is perfect for swimming, motorized boating, and water sports, though fishing is absent due to the lake's high mineral content. Birdwatchers and wildlife enthusiasts will also appreciate the park’s offerings, as it provides excellent opportunities for viewing local species.

Located 31 miles southeast of Plentywood, the park’s remote setting means basic services are a short drive away, and nearby attractions like Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge offer further chances for exploring Montana’s natural beauty. This campground is an exceptional choice for weekend getaways or laid-back extended stays where relaxation and connection to the land take center stage.
