**[United States](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/united-states) › [Montana](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/united-states/montana) › [Jordan](https://campertunity.com/listings/campgrounds/in/united-states/montana/jordan)**

Cattle roam freely through this rustic campground along Fort Peck Lake, where coyotes provide nighttime serenades and vault toilets mark the extent of available facilities\. Nelson Creek operates on a first\-come, first\-served basis with unnumbered sites scattered along dirt roads that can challenge vehicles without four\-wheel drive during wet weather\. The four\-mile approach follows a washboard gravel road that demands slow speeds to avoid equipment damage\. Sites accommodate both tents and RVs, each equipped with picnic tables and fire rings, though campers must bring their own firewood and water\. The campground provides direct lake access for swimming and boat launching, making it popular with anglers seeking easy water access\. "No services except vault toilets, picnic tables, fire pits and boat launches," notes Bonnie H\., summarizing the bare\-bones approach here\. Cell service reaches the area, and a covered group shelter offers the only respite from sun or weather, though securing it during summer requires luck\. Early September visitors report fewer crowds, with room to spread out among the dozen or so sites typically occupied\. This campground works best for self\-sufficient campers comfortable with minimal amenities who prioritize lake access and wildlife encounters over convenience\. Those seeking additional options can explore campgrounds near Fort Peck Recreation Area\.
