Plan your Trip

Rockvale

At the confluence of Rock Creek and the Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone River on the Bozeman Trail, the small community of Rockvale is unmistakable. That's due in part to the large, century-old roadside ferris wheel at the Fort Rockvale Restaurant and Casino where highways 212 and 310 meet.

This strategic location was and still is a navigation headquarters at the junction of Rock Creek and the Clarks Fork river. Little remains of the original townsite—even the post office closed—but the nearby cemetery. But Rockvale is no ghost town and it totally worth your while. For river recreationalist, Rockvale’s right on Rock Creek and near the Clarks Fork of the famous Yellowstone.

If your destination is Yellowstone National Park via the wild, rugged and epically scenic Beartooth Highway, stop into Fort Rockvale for a bite to eat. Fort Rockvale was built in 1958, spanning over half a century of entertaining locals and travelers, keeping them well fed, and making sure they’ve got something to wash it all down with.
