James Kipp Recreation Area is a 34-site BLM campground along the Upper Missouri River featuring a boat ramp, making it the primary takeout point for floaters on the Upper Missouri National Wild and Scenic River.

All campsites are first-come, first-serve with fire rings and picnic tables, plus amenities including vault toilets, RV dump station ($10 fee), and a fish cleaning station; the campground operates seasonally April 1–December 1 with a 14-day stay limit and $20/night fee.

Note that potable water systems are typically shut down in winter and become operational after the last spring freeze (usually mid-May).
