Phil on the Campground
Green Canyon has always been more than just a swimming pool. Often people come here for a family outing, and camping has always been a part of it. Back when the pool was up on the hill, there wasn’t any formal camp ground, but families would often camp where our pool and campground are today. It was just a flat spot near the creek and just off the hill from the swimming pool. They also camped south of us on another flat spot near the creek, just before the road turned north to go up the dug way. No fees were charged and no services were provided. The fishing on Canyon Creek was always good back then, and people loved to camp, fish, swim, and play family baseball. It was simple and fun! Campers back then didn’t bring R.V.’s. They didn’t need a water and electric hook up. Most took their trash with them.

Yes, we charge a fee now, but people seem to enjoy the added services. As you can guess, you can’t have one without the other.

Riding From Camp
The campground sits at the north edge of the Big Hole trail network. Ride or hike all day, soak at night, sleep by the creek.
