For Nelson Reservoir - USBR: What a beautiful spot! We had a wonderful breeze and a shaded spot. Don’t expect to be out of your camper after dusk - the mosquitoes are everywhere! Beautiful sunset. Pit toilets. Very much enjoyed our evening and morning at this spot.

For Nelson Reservoir - USBR: Great place and well maintained. Lots of privacy and elbow room. We didn’t stay because the reservoir has blue-green algae, which can be deadly for pets. Didn’t want to worry about our Lab jumping into the water on a hot day, so we erred on the side of safety and moved on, opting to keep her safe. And even though we stopped in early October, the bugs were terrible.

For Nelson Reservoir - USBR: This irrigation lake was quite low and the mosquitoes were terrible, but sites were large and there were few campers. The gulls and pelicans were entertaining and there were plenty of shady lake side sites.

For Nelson Reservoir - USBR: Great little place but the mosquitoes were like fog. Lost a pint of blood walking around.

For Nelson Reservoir - USBR: Love this place. Most of the sites are quite far apart and every one is right on the water. Except for the 2 handicapped sites, you just park on the mowed grass in any configuration you want. So all are “pull through†and you can orient your RV to view the water. Sunsets are amazing. 3 vaulted toilets but are likely a decent walk as the campground is quite long. Most sites have 1 table but some have 2. I would have given this a 5 star rating except there were 3 trailers without the associated vehicles. Looks like they are parked here for the summer. Thus, it would be nicer if there was a 14 day limit. Highly recommend this campground. So easy to get to off of the main road. Quiet except for the birds and cows in the pasture nearby.

For Nelson Reservoir - USBR: Beautiful area on Nelson Reservoir 20 min east of Malta, Montana. Plenty of level spots for a short layover. Mosquitoes are definitely out. It was pretty busy but you can find a quiet spot off the beaten path. A short gravel drive is required but the road is decent.
