Hotels in Three Forks

Stand at the exact spot where Lewis and Clark watched three rivers merge to form the mighty Missouri at Missouri Headwaters State Park. The Headwaters Heritage Museum tells tales of pioneers and railroad men who shaped this small Montana town. Anglers flock to the Jefferson, Madison, and Gallatin rivers for trout that seem almost willing to jump onto hooks. Lewis and Clark Caverns, though outside town, offers underground limestone wonders where stalactites have been forming since before America existed. The Headwaters Public Golf Course provides surprisingly challenging play with mountain backdrops that make even terrible shots worthwhile. After fishing or hiking the river trails, locals recommend refueling at diners where waitresses still call everyone 'hon' without a trace of irony.
