Bozeman

"If you are traveling through Bozeman with your pup, PLEASE stop at Snowfill Recreation Area. It is a 38-acre off-leash dog park that is incredibly beautiful and scenic. We could have stayed here for hours. So many friendly humans and pups! We had a 5-hour drive from Glacier to Bozeman and stopped in the Helena National Forest for a pet friendly hike. We headed to Montana Ale Works for dinner and had every intention of staying at Bozeman Hot Springs Campground. Somewhere along the way of this road trip, (in the middle of nowhere Montana) my car's check engine light came on. Autozone gave me the number of an incredible auto repair shop who was available last minute, on a weekend night. It turned out to be a faulty sensor, but Luigi ran diagnostics/fixed it fast, and soon enough we were on the road again. We did stop at the campground to check it out, but we decided to drive through the night to get to Mt. Rushmore. If we had stayed the night in Bozeman, we would have headed to Canine Beach at Bozeman Pond in the morning to let Wally run around before starting our drive. Seriously, if you ever have car trouble close to Bozeman, give Luigi a call (406-580-7649). He was incredibly helpful and extremely genuine. He even reached out a few days later to make sure we had made it back home safely and that the car didn't have any other issues on the way home."
