Campfires

We take fire risk very seriously and follow Granite county’s burning restrictions based on current fire danger.

Active Fire Restrictions Link - https://www.mtfireinfo.org/pages/restrictions

That being said, as long as burning is allowed:

Cabins, tipis, wagon and tent sites have their own fire ring.
RV sites do not each have their own fire ring, but can use one of the group fire rings in the area.
Fires are only allowed in designated fire rings.
Campfires must be attended at all times. Fire must be completely extinguished when you go to bed and/or when you leave.
Firewood bundles are sold at the Lodge.
Help stop the spread of invasive forest pests. Plan to buy firewood where you burn it. https://www.dontmovefirewood.org/region/montana/

Trees & Natural Hazards

Trees, and the shade they provide, are an integral part of an enjoyable resort and campground experience. However, trees pose a natural hazard of falling debris, such as leaves and branches especially during windy and/or extreme weather conditions. We do not assume responsibility for these natural hazards or for property damage, injury or other circumstances that may result.

Please take this into consideration when parking in the RV Park, camping area or resort in general. Boulder Creek Lodge Montana or its ownership is NOT responsible for loss, damage or claim to property of guests due to fire, theft, accident or any other cause.

No Drone Fly Zone

The flying of any drone like device is prohibited at any time while on all grounds owned by Boulder Creek Lodge Montana.

Fishing

You can buy a fishing license online at the Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks website or in Philipsburg from local vendors like Woodland Creations (421 W Sutter St., Open Mon-Sat, closed on Sundays). Both resident and non-resident options are available.
