A really fantastic campground in Glacier National Park. Lots of things to do right there at the campground, like fishing, swimming and eating. There are gift shops as well as a boat launch. Would go back again! Scenery is beyond other places by a wide margin. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Come one, come all. Everyone welcome. From grassy spots for bicyclists to sites for large motorhomes, there is room for all. Family run with a large relaxed living area including a woodstove in the center, WiFi reception there only, seating must be negotiated with owners' friendly dogs. Dump station, propane, free movie rentals and pick up spot for The Going to the Sun Road red busses. Well forested, shady, private sites. 30 amp service maximum. Showers available for walk ins for a nominal fee. Cafe on site open a couple of nights a week. If you like to feel part of a congenial family this is the spot for you. I hated to leave and will definitely return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a very wooded campground and the next best thing to camping in the national park. There are no sewer hookups, but they do have a pump out service. The restrooms are scarce considering the number of spaces and quite far from many of the sites. The sites could be tricky for larger rigs. The location is great. We stayed a week and would stay again but did try to scope out which sites we could more easily get our 38 footer into. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
If you're looking for a concrete parking lot, you may want to try somewhere else, if you like trees, this is your place. This place is in the woods and more like camping in a National Forest, it does have water and electric, but no sewer hook-ups, but it does have a dump station & a pump truck available, sites are a little on the short side for the big rigs, but our 30 ft. class C / with toad fit just fine. The showers and bathrooms were clean, but need more of them. The owners were friendly & helpful, & we would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The only problem I saw with this place is it is not big rig friendly. Limited to a few sites for the 38' and above. Great location. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We love this campground. It is heavily wooded and the sites are a nice size with lots of privacy. It is very much like a typical state park. They offer a Good Sam discount or 1 free night with the purchase of 6 nights. It is hilly and backing into some of the sites with a big rig might require some finesse. It is very close to the West Entrance to Glacier National Park. We would come back here the next time we are in the area. WiFi is available near the front office, but not in the further sites. If you are looking for a football field-type campground with cable TV, on-site WiFi and swimming pool go elsewhere. If you want to feel like you are camping in Glacier NP, come here! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We keep going back. This was our 4 time in the last 8 years. Very clean and well maintained. Friendly staff. Looking forward to being there again in 2 years. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Friendly greeting upon arrival. Sites are carved out the forest. Very close to West Glacier entrance. I might look for something else next time in the area. It was okay, but not quite as nice as I was hoping for. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a great place to stay if you want to visit Glacier National Park. It is close to everything and very quiet and clean. The park is in the middle of the woods and creates the mood of being in days past. Cajun Mary's restaurant on the premises is great fun and great food. We will stay here again if we ever get the chance. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Restrooms were immaculate and so were the showers. Campsites are level. Playground for children is safe. Restaurant on site is surprisingly very good. Wild berries throughout campground. Aesthetically pleasing. Strict fire management. Campground is neat and tidy and one gets the sense that owners are actively involved in management. People we spoke with were also impressed, with many of them being return guests. Negative: So large must drive to front desk from site, which is most likely at a different elevation. However, restrooms and showers are generally close from all directions. Highly recommended. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
The only redeeming feature of this park is the privacy at each and the privacy is OK *only* if you like camping is dense, dark, scrubby third-growth pine trees. The water pressure is so bad as to be unusable and the bathrooms were in need of attention (flooding toilets and mold on the wood around the showers). This is cheap, rustic camping -- OK if you like it but not if you prefer a few basic amenities like full hookups, clean facilities and reasonable water pressure. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is the most beautiful campground. Very close to West Glacier enterance. The only
thing they could do to improve this campground is to put sewer hookups at the sites but they do have a dump station and a portable dump.The employees treat
you like kings. Will stay here when ever we are in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had a lovely stay at this campground and hate to leave it. The staff have owned the facility for over 40 years and are extremely friendly, relaxed and helpful. Sites are wide and well spaced and there are many trees - it has a forest feel. The location is close to West Glacier and it makes a good base for visiting the park. The grounds are meticulously maintained. The kids really enjoyed playing on the swings, and with the sports equipment every night. The communal campfire was fun and we learned a lot of the history of the area from the owners. The free wi-fi worked well. There is some road noise but you can request a site further away from the road if that is a concern. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a very nice campground. Tall trees, very long pull thrus, level, adequate space between sites. Sites are tiered with mainly trees and shrubs between. Trash cans at each site. Bathrooms older but clean with small showers. No cable tv and were only able to pick up 3 stations with antenna. Wifi was very good and we were not that close to office. Staff was friendly and helpful with info on what to see and do. We were too early for the community campfires and pie. Some road noise. Laundry was expensive. We were here 3 nights and would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here for 7 nights. The staff was very friendly and informative. The sites are well laid out and easy to get into. Some sites are paved and some are dirt. Sites are quite level too. There are two entrances from the main road and one from the road that runs across the back side of the park, making it convenient to enter. With more than one entrance you don't have to drive through the whole park to get to your site. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a good choice when exploring Glacier. We were very comfortable here and enjoyed the evening campfires. Wooded campsites give a feeling of privacy. Highway and train noise did not bother us. The long term owner is very knowledgeable about Glacier and the surrounding area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We would stay here again, but this is a strange park. The lay-out is confusing and there is little signage to indicate driving flow. Most sites are pull thrus and will accomodate big rigs. A real mixed bag of utilities available and every site has a different colored picnic table. Some site have four sewer connections and power pedestals on both sides of the site, which helps when you have no idea which way to pull into a site from the illogical road layout. Very friendly folks running the place and the nightly community campfire is fun. Laundry room was spotless, with excellent machines and lots of reading material for while you wait. Proximity to Glacier park is a plus. Road and train noise is present, but not invasive unless you are particularly sensitive to noise. It would be difficult to get ANY park in this region that doesn't get some train noise as it is an active railroad corridor. Road noise is considerably reduced in the evenings. The management of this park will bake you a pie, but we didn't take them up on that offer. We do reccomend a visit to the Huckleberry Patch in Hungry Horse (a few miles west of the park) for famous huckleberry pie---it was indeed the best pie I've ever eaten. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We ditto what has already been said. We had a pull thru that was paved and somewhat level(small shim). Nice big tall pines for shade. The folks here are very homey and nice. Lots of antiques and stuff in their store/office. Utilities great and water taste good. We like the plusher resort type parks, which this is not, but a great feel and rustic, but all our needs met. Train and hiway noise, but it didn't bother us. Several local TV stations. WiFi was good mosts of the time. Had to have them reboot once in our 4 days. I would recommend this park! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a wonderful little park just outside the main entrance to Glacier National Park. Heavily wooded. Sites are paved and level. 20/30/50, water, sewer. No cable TV although we were able to pick up a few local stations with our bat wing antenna. Campground hosts are wonderful. They have a campfire every evening. They have a small restaurant where you can purchase home made pies all day and breakfast in the morning. Only drawback is the campground's proximity to Hwy 2 which has heavy traffic during the day which creates some noise; but, as another reviewer commented, the traffic reduces substantially at night. We didn’t notice the noise. Restrooms were clean with plenty of hot water in the small telephone booth sized shower. Recently improved their wifi. It worked great at our spot but we were in one of the spots closest to the office. The further back you go the more difficult will be reception. Good laundry facilities. They even had pet sitting services for our dogs. The Google earth coordinates are: Latitude: 48̊27'46.42"N Longitude: 114̊ 0'10.97"W. We arrived here intending to stay just a couple of days. Ended up staying over a week. Beautiful national park and great place to stay. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We loved this campground!!! It was beautiful, quiet, and was as close to feeling like you are in the park as you can get. The campground has wonderful trees throughout and feels very secluded. There were not that many people staying at the park when we were there so we had our choice of spots (the area is deserted in early June). Although the campground sits right off of US Highway 2, there is no road noise at night once the traffic dies down. It was the quietest and darkest campground we have ever stayed in - I loved it! The bathrooms were sparkling clean. There is one private bathroom that even has a bathtub in it. The water was hot, and the pressure was wonderful. The laundry room was good as well. It has four or five washers and two huge dryers. Prices are typical - $2.25 for the washer and $0.25 for fifteen minutes for the dryer. We were too early in the season for the nightly campfires, but we did try the owner's homemade cinnamon rolls and rhubarb pie which were excellent! We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Great little campground about 2 miles from the entrance of Glacier NP. Long, wide pull through sites. Breakfast available daily as well as pies and other sweet treats. They have a community campfire nightly. Discounts for staying multiple nights. This campground really seems to bring out the friendliness in everyone who stays here. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice little private campground in the trees. Lots of shade, thus no satellite reception. Local TV available on antenna, Wi-Fi works OK. A little pricey with no amenities, but the seclusion and friendliness of the owner makes up for it. Plenty of room for big rigs. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very friendly owners and a clean rv park. We had site#25 which along with some other large sites are fully paved and plenty large enough for our 41ft. Some smaller sites are just on earth. We enjoy the semi-seclusion that the lodge pole pines provide. There are only 3 TV stations that are received on your antenna. No satellite or cable. There is a play area for children. So far I've resisted the pies! We stayed three nights. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a nice park in the trees which we appreciated because it was 87 degrees when we were here. We were told it was unseasonable hot for this time of year. The owners were friendly and helpful and didn't require a credit card until you checked out! How unheard of is that!! It is right on the road which could be an issue for noise. The worst thing about this place are the mosquitos. They are terrible!! So if you don't want to get bit, don't even come to Glacier Park. They are really bad everywhere. But because the people here are so nice, I would stay here again. The wifi is currently not working at all spaces in the park, but is at this one because I asked for a spot where it did. Owner said the winter knocked it down and she has to get on the ladder to fix it. But this spot, #10, works just fine. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Beautiful treed park. Very quiet and clean. The owners were friendly & helpful and make some of the finest fruit pies! Sinful! Our 10 yr old twin daughters spent hours grooming and petting the owner's two ponies. They want to go back! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a small park run by a nice couple. The owner bakes pies every day and sell them by the slice. The comfort station was spotless. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Very nice, clean RV Park. We really enjoyed the setting with the tall trees and well kept surroundings. We also found the pricing to be a bit more reasonable compared to other areas. The staff seemed a bit distant and not as friendly as other RV parks. The Wi-Fi was nice, but had many connection issues. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a very nice campground that the owners have put a lot of money and thought into. The restrooms and laundry and very clean. The staff is very helpful. The pull thru sites and wide and have a nice grass area-- no campfires allowed. The back in sites seem fine have more shade and allow campfires. There is a nice pool and two hot tubs. The only reason they did not get a 10 is the poor Wi-Fi service. It is free, but only worked right outside the office. They say they are working on it, but if you say you have free Wi-Fi I think it should be through out the park. They have several services, such as a restaurant, ice cream parlor and tour bus pick up. The only problem was they do not open until around the 15th of June. I hear the food is very good and the ice cream good, but they were not serving when I was here. The entrance is well marked and road in is paved and very nice. The roads in the park and sites are gravel and well kept. One other thing, and they have no control over this, the TV reception is terrible-- you get one channel. I understand cable is not available up here, but if you have a dish, they have sites that will enable you to use it. I would stay here again-- would love to check out the breakfast! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Expensive even in September when a lot of their services were closed for the season. Conveniently located just outside the park. The Big Red Bus picked up on site. We even had a dog sitter just down the street. The park was clean, the staff was very helpful and always available. Not close to any open restaurants. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice & clean park in a forested setting. Friendly folks in the office with a good end of season sale. The spots without firepits are more open & have grass and small trees. The spots with firepits have mature pine trees and are a tighter fit. Some of the folks with slideouts had only inches to spare. Great, if pricey park close to Glacier NP. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is the best KOA, by far, that we've ever seen. It's not perfect, but it is pretty darn good! Note, if you want open sun sites, opt for the premium sites. If you want shaded sites, don't go with the premium sites. I was able to get satellite coverage in the non-premium sites, but I also saw many others that didn't have the same luck. Positives: Great location in the woods and far enough off of the highway to make sure there is no noise, yet still very close to the West Glacier entrance. Employees are great--this isn't the standard "a bunch of teenage kids run the joint" that we've seen so many times. The premium sites are very nice, green, and spacious. Pool and hot tub area well maintained. Great on-site little 'restaurant' and ice cream shop. A neighbor lady runs a dog sitting service if you want a day of adventure without taking Fido with. Playground is in great shape and has everything needed to keep the kids happy. The tourist items in the shop are better than anything we found in Glacier, and at some very reasonable prices. Negatives: Wi-Fi is not very reliable as many have stated. The non-premium sites tend to be dirty (no grass) and sizes vary; some extremely tight, some very spacious. Not all sites can have campfires. There are a lot of great parks in the area. This one should be considered one of them. Price-wise, it is high. But, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here for 5 nights in a premium pull-through site. The campground is clean, well-maintained, and beautifully landscaped. The pool is not heated, and there are 2 hot tubs. Local television channels are available. The WiFi service worked in the morning, but was impossible to get on in the evening. Breakfast and dinner could be ordered from the Pavilion. On some evenings, there would be a wildlife slide show, Ranger talk, or movie shown. There was an Ice Cream Shoppe on the premises. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Too bad for a beautifully landscaped KOA that they couldn't come up with a Wi-Fi system that works! We were there for 2 days and had to go to the office 4 times to ask them to reboot the system. Still it only worked 1/4 of the time! It seems there were a lot more campgrounds close by the Glacier Nat. Park that might have been better. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The West Glacier KOA is located about 2 miles from the town of West Glacier and the entrance to Glacier National Park. It is easily accessed from Highway 2 and has a paved road access. The campground has very nice office, pool, playground, and outside summer dining facilities. Summer flower arrangements and other landscaping are very attractive. There is a large pet walk area. The campground is framed by tall pines and mountains. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Numerous cottages are available also. Some of the narrower tree-area sites are tight for larger RVS with slide-outs. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Feel as if you are going to the back of beyond as you drive the campground road. There is ample area to park and register. Office staff are friendly and efficient. Access roads to camp sites are well maintained but narrow. Some campsites in trees but pull through for larger units are in open area. Sites are flat and wide and have services in correct position for easy hook-ups. Electricity was solid and water pressure good. However small trees and bushes on road edge of sites made it a bit difficult to pull out from site. The campground is well maintained and is close to the entrance of Glacier National Park. (800) 562-3313 We camped here in a Motorhome.
Beautiful RV park at the foot of Glacier National Park. Not your typical KOA. This park is well off the main road, and you feel like you are in the middle of a forest glade. No road noise at all. All the facilities are clean, and the staff are friendly. WiFi worked great. Nice sites with good hook-ups. Red Bus Tours pick up at the campground. We shall return to this campground next time we visit Glacier National Park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This KOA was OK. As per previous reviews, the grassy sites are bigger than the wooded sites. Not a lot of privacy though and I wouldn't exactly call any of the sites huge. They have a pool and a hot tub and we used the hot tub. It was nice. WiFi is free but goes on and off and if it goes off after the office closes (which it did for us), you will have to wait for the staff to arrive the next morning to reset it. The place is a bit pricey and I think that there are other campgrounds in the same vicinity that have more reasonable rates and are just as good or better. Don't think we would return unless everything else is full. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Beautiful campground. Lots for the family to do. The staff are super friendly and very knowledgeable of the area. Very willing to help. We will come back again and do recommend it to others. This is one of the best KOA campgrounds I have ever stayed at. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Typical KOA, a bunch of amenities that no one uses and we all have to pay for it. This is a dusty place. The WI-FI was poor and I was dropped often, good thing it was free. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice park where we were. We were on the grass, so we had more room than the people in the dirt. Those people were packed in tight. The pool and hot tub were great, playground was great. Don't plan on doing laundry though. There were only 2 washers working and there was a line to use those. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Gravel roads/large grassy unshaded pull-through sites. Lots of fun for the kids - Playground, game room, ice cream shop/restaurant. My only complaint: They run sprinklers in the early a.m. hours and the sides of your rig and all items left out will get extremely wet. Took a good waxing to remove water spots from paint and wheels. I complained that they should adjust sprinklers so as not to spray 1/2 way up the side of the motorhome. Other than that, place was nice. We camped here in a Motorhome.
