Campground Overview

About Cliff Point Campground

Cliff Point Campground stands out for its serene lakeside setting on the aquamarine shores of Cliff Lake, offering a tranquil escape ideal for anglers, boaters, and nature enthusiasts. The campground features just six sites, ensuring a quiet and intimate experience, while providing essentials like picnic tables, fire rings, drinking water, and a centrally located vault toilet.

Located 43 miles south of Ennis and only 35 miles west of Yellowstone National Park, this campground offers easy access to fishing for trout species, a natural surface boat launch for small watercraft, and nearby hiking trails, including routes into the Lee Metcalf Wilderness just five miles away. Wildlife sightings are common, with moose and otters frequenting the lakeshore, while the cold, clear water invites a cooling swim during the summer. The no-wake speed limit on Cliff Lake enhances the sense of calm, and Wade Lake, less than a mile away, provides additional recreational opportunities, such as boat rentals.

Perfect for weekend getaways or extended stays, Cliff Point Campground is best suited for tents and small trailers (up to 16 feet), as its tight turns and compact layout deter larger RVs. Attractions like the Madison River's world-class fly fishing and the Earthquake Lake Visitor Center are within a short drive, making it a prime destination for those seeking both natural beauty and outdoor adventure.
