Emery Bay Campground

Excellent location!

It was a decent site. Cute and with easy access to take a dip in the resevoir. Woudl recommend it for a stop before entering Glacier National Park, and only a stoip, as there is not much to do/ see in the area it woudl seem

Group B site was good, the best part was a shared spot between group A and B that we got to use since no one was using group A site during our stay. It was a nice secluded spot with nice grass and good shade in the morning and evening. The boat dock was close and very few boats on the reservoir. We had a great time!

We were never able to get to this campground as the road that gave you the shortest access was closed and the alternate route was not suitable to a class C. No refund because it was less than 24 hours. That should have been an alert on this website.

The water may have been potable, but not drinkable, horrible taste of tank water.
the vault toilet smelled of cherry cough syrup, recommend another cleaner/air freshener.
The tent campsite we were on had no trees or bushes between us and the next site. The tent areas by us were less than 20 feet apart. Luckily, no one camped there while we were there, but otherwise, it would have been crazy close. Other tent sites had lovely shade and privacy, I recommend making this an RV site. It is 20 min from the west entrance to Glacier, it is nicely off the beaten path. The reservoir is lovely and allows motor boats.

first off- dan is very responsible and responsive. lake experience is awesome. even when it rained, it didnt get muddy.only issue i would raise is lack of spigot on group site 1.

What an idyllic location! We selected this for proximity to Whitefish Mountain and Flathead Lake. It was so beautiful and the reservoir was fantastic for swimming! I could not have been more pleased. We had our reservation, we were expected and went directly to the site. I would love to return and spend more time. Each site has so much space and privacy.

Our group was not very happy with our stay at Emery Bay. Most of us were there for 9 days. We had several campsites. One campsite our group had was next to the day use area so they had many different people coming and going each day. Some of the day use people were loud and rude. Our friends ended up moving to another campsite with the help of Jennifer, the host. I would not recommend staying in site 7 or 8 because of the transient nature of that part of the campground.

It quickly became apparent that a conflict existed between the camp hosts and their manager. A few days into our stay the hosts, Jennifer and Rory, quit. There was then no onsite host for a couple days. Toilets were running short of toilet paper and things seemed a bit more chaotic in general.

We liked our particular campsite. However, there was a lot of day use traffic going by and the road was very dusty. I understand that we were camping in the woods and dirt and dust are part of the experience. But, with the excessive day use traffic, it was more than we expected for a campground so far away from the nearest paved road.

Campsite and facilities were in excellent condition, clean and level. Camp host was friendly and helpful. Gravel road into camp was rough and needs maintenance but other than a rough 5 miles or so the facilities and location was great.

Campground was closed due to bear activity. Tried to obtain a refund but folks at the campground could not help. Unable to cancel myself. Called reservation.gov and they put in a cancellation request for me but the campground manager has not approved it. So if they close the campground and you have to find scramble to somewhere else you still get to pay. 🤷‍♂️
