RV rental Salmon Lake State Park, MT: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

True to its name, the park’s excellent kokanee fishing attracts anglers from all over the state. Anyone camping at Salmon Lake State Park, hoping to fish from the comfort of their boat, should head to the park office, home to a handy public boat launch ramp. Here, you’ll also be able to pick up Montana fishing license, if you haven’t got one already. As well as stocking the waters annually with kokanee salmon, both novice and experienced anglers will be able to catch the likes of largemouth bass, rainbow trout, northern pike, cutthroat trout, and so much more. If you haven’t bought your boat with you, head to Seeley Lake, part of the Flathead National Forest, where you’ll be able to pick up a rental. Whether you need a boat to assist you with your fishing, to get up to scratch with your sailing, or to simply relax with an afternoon of tranquil kayaking, you’ll be able to do it here. Even better, if the hot Montana sunshine gets a little too much, you can enjoy a dip in the lake’s refreshing waters. Jumping into the lake from your boat is permitted. However, there is a designated swimming zone and beach if you’d prefer. Just be aware that there are no lifeguards on duty here, so swimming is at your own risk. Your Salmon Lake State Park camping trip doesn’t just have to be about the water. Enveloped by forests of fir and pine trees, you’ll want to indulge in some exploration on land too. Hiking is the most popular way to do this. While the trails that wind through the park are not particularly long or challenging, they cover most of the 42-acre park and give walkers a chance to enjoy the birdlife around them. Along your travels, you’ll spot plenty of dainty songbirds and possibly even a pair of nesting bald eagles.
