Varney Bridge Campground

Varney Bridge Fishing Access Site, located 8 miles south of Ennis on the Madison River, offers a concrete boat ramp, 6 primitive campsites ($12-18/night), and basic facilities including hand pump water and an outhouse.

The site experiences heavy use with over 3,600 annual commercial trips, so expect congestion during peak times, particularly early morning when fishing traffic is heaviest; note that access roads are rough and some campsites are positioned close to the dirt road.

Camping is limited to 7 days maximum, and the site is undergoing planned improvements including boat ramp expansion and campsite relocation to reduce congestion and erosion.
