This campsite has insane access to Lake McDonald and the campsites are nice. They are VERY close to the road, so keep that in mind. No service for any carrier in the campground (or entire park).

We liked the site although it was a bit noisy as two families were either side of us with 4 children each. All good fun though. The ranger led astronomy talk eith expert (Sydnay?) was wonderful. The lake was superb, the scenery beautiful. The town shopping and and dining was excellent too!

ALL campground reservations inside the park, any East Side, West Side, or North Fork campground reservation, should automatically include a vehicle reservation for the Going to the Sun Road between 6am and 3pm on both the West side and St Mary entrances.

Good campground. There is only one shower station, which is located in the A loop. There are three showers and one was broken for the season so the wait for showers every night was ~45 minutes.

This was the most wonderful experience! We were able to use one of the hiker/biker sites and all of the staff/campground hosts were incredibly kind and helpful. Peaceful location and and close to the lake, visitors center and Apgar Village.
