About
Town of Columbus park campground on the Yellowstone River just south of town, in two sections - upper and lower - that work as one campground. Tents, trailers, and RVs are all accepted, but camping must be in the developed sites. Seven-day limit, first-come, first-served. Seasonal restrooms; a boat ramp in the lower section. The town asks for a donation rather than charging a set rate, and publishes no site count.
