Park has great views of mountains around the area. Sites are not the most level I ever had but do work. Just outside the park you can see black bears on both sides of the highway. Water and electric worked just fine, however the sewer connection is in the middle of the gravel site and not at all easy to get to. We camped here in a 40' motorhome. - illini777

reason for only 9 there was no shade however the sites were large with grass and tables roads were good. - NevadaJim

We got lucky and were able to make a 5 day reservation, three days before arriving at the end of June. Not a recommended approach, book as far in advance as possible. This is a lovely open campground on the shores of Waterton Lake, surrounded on three sides by mountains. A full service pull-through site is just under $40 per night (Ntl Park entry fees extra). Our site was perfectly level and had commanding views of the surrounding mountains. As I am composing this review, a male deer is grazing on the grass outside my RV window. The picturesque little town of Waterton is less than a 5 minute walk from the campground. If you plan on cooking your own meals, bring food with you as selection is extremely limited and ridiculously overpriced. Diesel is not available in the town. The closest place for diesel is Mountain View about 20k East of the park and the closest full grocery store is in Pincher Creek about 50 km North East of the park. The town has free WiFi throughout and it is possible to connect from the campground. Both Bell and Rogers phones work in the park. - driftdiver1

Campground is about six kilometers east of Waterton Lakes National Park. There is a wonderful view of the mountains from this campground. The problem is the amperage for the electricity. The service is 30 amp, but it is a very weak 30 amps. It was cold and rainy while we were here. Usually, we run 2 portable electric heaters on 30 amps to keep us warm, but we couldn’t run even one of the heaters without losing power. The park is nice, though, and the grounds are well-maintained. If you plan to be here when neither heat or air conditioning is needed, it’s a great place to camp at while visiting Waterton Lakes National Park. - Bobbi1948

We have stayed twice in this park. We only needed power for our camper. Had site 111 was large treed fire pit. Was a lovely campsite. Will stay here again.

Several years ago we stayed and we left several things behind. Called office they retrieved them for us. The operators are very warm friendly people I highly recommend this campground to people who love to camp. We will be back next year. - LynBriSteph

Basic campground close to Waterton NP. Nice personnel. Very clean bathroom and shower. (Coin operated shower. $1 for 4 min.) WiFi average. Verizon signal good. Gravel roads in. Gravel site with small amount of grass. Very close to neighbor. - smitty12

If going to the National Park, this is a good option. Roads are a little rough, everything is dirt and gravel, but the park is nice. No TV access without a satellite. WiFi is weak. Campground is about 3 miles from the National Park, and about 15 miles from the US border. - ta96silver

Very popular campground located near some of the best hiking in the park. No reservations accepted so arrive early in the day to try and obtain a site as someone is leaving. The 12 mile road into this area of the park is paved but in bad conditions. Five sections have been washed out. It is passable but you need to slow down. There are approximately 25 sites that will take trailers up to 32' or RVs up to 38'. Almost all of the sites are pull through but the short radius makes many difficult to place a towable RV. Beautiful setting as you are surrounded by mountains and lakes. Water is available at the dump station. Bring all needed supplies since it is over 50 miles to a grocery store or laundry in Browning, MT. No cell phone service - AT&T is only available in Browning, Version available at St. Marys. There are pay showers ($2.50 for 8 minutes) available at the Swiftwater Motor Lodge. Limited groceries, supplies, and food available at the Lodge. Two restaurants nearby but expensive. Hiking in the area is wonderful with much wildlife to see. We viewed mountain goats, big horn sheep, and a bull moose while hiking. This campground with no hookups in a remote area is not for everyone but is beautiful! - linnemj

$23 is full rate, we paid $11.50 senior rate. Reservations taken and recommended. We could only book 4 nights and could not get any extra nights while here. This place is booked solid in the summer. Great base for seeing the east side of the park. Potable water is at the dump station on the way out. We were able to make the swing around the attendant booth after checking in with no problem. Then a short ride back to the visitor center to turn around. As reviewed, sites can be tight, took some doing to get positioned so our slides could go out. - Bob and Inga

$20 seems high for no hookups or showers, BUT it is in the Glacier NP and close to great hiking so maybe worth it! Restrooms were very clean. - susy1313

A fun place to stay, the live music was very entertaining and the food was fantastic! The hosts are very welcoming. Close enough to Waterton lakes park for a day trip and the carriage museum in Cardston is a must see as well. We will definitely be back again. Close enough you can see the rockies from there. - MJB

This is a very nice, family run campground that is a little out of the way unless you search it out. You have great views of the mountains and farm countryside. Sites are grass, reasonably level, and about 60' long with perhaps 12' between RVs. Sites are 30A with water and there is a dump site available. I didn't see any 50A sites although their web site says they have some. I was able to get a weak Verizon signal on my mifi. There's no shade so all sites are good for satellite. If you are there on a Friday night, they serve a very good dinner and put on a musical show (for extra cost of course). Make sure you have a reservation if you want the dinner & show. Bathroom was clean and shower worked but it was a very small stall. - Danno

The owners are wonderful. Friendly, helpful, funny, and just terrific people who make you feel at home. The sites do not have sewer but there's a dump site available or "honey wagon services". We would love to come back and stay here again. The show, dance, and meals are all top notch. - Toby Maxx

Easy access, easy back-in, plenty of room in site. Nice grassy area around sites. Quick and easy check-in. Price was for W&E only. - jandjmichael

Right by river, nice pull-through, level sites and very quiet. We had a wonderful stay and would be glad to stay here again. - oldguy68

Large sites, not near neighbors. Room for slides. Great staff. Near town; walking distance to Remington Carriage Museum, info center, and downtown. Super place to stay! - CamperEd

Like most KOA campgrounds, this one is over priced, but since it is the only decent full-service campground in the area, they get their price. The WIFI was pretty much useless. I was able to receive emails, but I would have to try multiple times to get an email to send and forget about looking up something on the web. They had a strong WIFI signal but lousy throughput. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. They have a little ice cream and coffee bar where they will make sandwiches for you to take with you for lunch. They also have a barbecue available each night during the Summer. Good size swimming pool and spa, both out doors of course. The interior roads are narrow, but passable. I was in M1, a back-in site that was angled appropriately for backing in to it, but we had to go out the same direction we came in, so it took some maneuvering to get turned around. There was a low rock protecting something next to the road that I hit with my front wheel and made a large gouge in it and the fender rode up on it and scratched the bottom. Not sure why it was there, just very annoying to scratch a 22.5" motorhome wheel. - USA by RV

Beautiful views of the mountains. Long level gravel sites. Great utilities. Would give it a ten but no cable or over air tv stations. Also we were supposed to get a bricked patio site that was advertised. They did put us in a patio site but it was grass and needed some attention. We only saw one bricked patio. Very close to Glacier National Park entrance. - The Griffins

Our site was near the office in Section F. Unfortunately, this was the main drag for the pizza delivery guy and fire wood salesman. In the evening the ATVs loaded with pizza or firewood whizzed by our campsite making a lot of noise and stirring up dust. Thank goodness we did get some rain to help keep the dust down. The sites were close together and didn't offer much shade. We had three small aspens between us and the next RV on one side and nothing on the other. Roads in and out of the park were pretty rough. The WiFi was very seldom accessible. At times you could connect with the wife but could not get to the internet. AT&T cell and data were nonexistent and there is no local TV to acquire on the antenna and no cable. Views of the surrounding mountains were nice, but the campground was anything but pretty. Hooks ups were fine. Because of the location to Going to the Sun Road we would camp here again, but definitely not in Section F an nowhere near the office to avoid the ATV delivery guys. - Sigohigo

Great place to see the park. Sites are kinda tight. But otherwise pleasant. Bears in campground every night. :-) - Spantz

This was dry camping and since we were in a motor home it was no problem. The showers and restroom were very clean. The campground was smoke filled because of all the fires. It rained and snowed our last nig ht. What a beautiful view of the mountains when we woke up. To bad we had to leave. - larbac

Wonderful campground - just wish they had electric hookups. Most campsites are surrounded by bushes and small trees so there is quite a bit of privacy between sites. All campsites are pull-thrus so if you are in an RV and want your patio door to face your site rather than the road then choose a site on the outside of the loop. Berries were ripe while we were there so there were bears coming into the campground. Nice location for day trips to Many Glacier and Two Medicine. Verizon phone and Mifi worked well. - DKL1219

The pull through sites with full hookups are located high on a hill. Fantastic view. Very long and narrow sites with drop offs at each side. Not level. Office and bathrooms located at bottom of hill. No phone (AT&T), wifi or TV. Their water spigot froze at night during first weekend of September (not insulated). This park is way overpriced and their refund policy is outrageous - no refunds within 30 days for ANY reason. - bspe

This park is perfectly located on the east side of Glacier NP and they know it. It is pricey. The sites are well placed, gravel, and no thrills. I love that you can look out and see the mountains.They have a wonderful restaurant that serves family style. - daa10496

I'm quite sad to leave a negative review for this park as we love east Glacier, but after staying here for consecutive years, I feel the park is relying entirely on its position and lack of competition. Good things about Johnsons: the staff is friendly and very helpful. Nice views from some of the sites over St Marys Lake and countryside. Easy access to some of the best hikes in the whole of Glacier. Its cheaper than the KOA across the road. The bad: sites are dirt/gravel/weeds, and most are very uneven and horribly narrow. No chance of putting an awning out on our site B25. While some of the sites are long, others have barely enough room to park a toad off the road. The only level sites on the area next to the office, are so close together vans are jammed in like sardines. The water pressure varied between poor and terrible to the point we had to fill our tank and use the pump. The wifi that is new and now supposed to be throughout the park, was worse than useless. If you are going to do something, then do it properly. Because the access roads are dirt the speed limits need to be enforced, but even staff drove vehicles too quickly causing huge dust problems. The restrooms are a hike down the hill from most of the sites, so anyone with mobility problems would find them difficult.

The money spent redoing the office would have been better spent improving the condition of the sites. A shame as this park could be so much better than it is. - 2onthemove
