Placid Lake State Park

What sets Placid Lake State Park Campground apart is its seamless blend of recreational diversity, tranquil waterside beauty, and thoughtfully designed amenities. Tucked alongside the clear waters of Placid Lake, just a short drive from the town of Seeley Lake, this campground caters equally to relaxation-seekers and outdoor adventurers with its scenic lakeside views, abundant shade from thick forest cover, and excellent facilities for boating, fishing, and swimming.

The campground features 41 well-maintained sites suitable for tents and RVs (up to 25 feet), with some offering electrical hookups. Each site is equipped with essentials like picnic tables and fire grates, with access to shared comforts including showers, flush and vault toilets, and potable water. Highlights include a sandy swimming beach, multiple boat ramps with docks, and recreation amenities like volleyball courts and a horseshoe pit. While the campground is lively in summer, it provides ample opportunities for peaceful moments by its serene lake backdrop.

Conveniently located under 30 minutes from nearby attractions such as the Morrell Falls National Recreation Trail and Salmon Lake State Park, Placid Lake State Park serves as a prime base camp for exploring the Clearwater/Swan River Valley. Whether it's a weekend escape, a family vacation, or a water-based adventure, this campground offers a quintessential Montana outdoor experience with a balance of comfort and natural charm.
