Apgar Campground

When we got to the camp site there was several people there setting up tents and there was no where for us to set up ours.

In spite of some rain we really enjoyed our stay. Be advised that there are 2 shower stalls for all the campers at Apgar. There are lots of restrooms, which is helpful. I would recommend taking the tour bus for the Road to the Sun if you are scared of heights. It takes quite a long time to drive and we ended up turning back once we reached Logan Pass as it was already 5:30 pm. Beautiful scenery and no Grizzly Bear sightings.

Surprisingly large and private sites for a prime national park. Very pleasant and helpful campground hosts dropped by to check us in and provide information. Bathroom was relatively clean but needed some maintenance (some out of order in multiple rest rooms). Insufficient showers!

Limited ability to wash dishes due to only one dump sink in large campground. No hand soap in bathrooms. Shared bear boxes.

campground it self is nice. however, for a campground this big you need more showers than just 2 for 200 camp sites. There apparently were 3 showers but one of them was closed leaving only 2. Also, the bathrooms had no soap dispenser at all and not very clean.
the same applies to fish creek in which we stayed for 1 day, the bathrooms were filthy, the showers had cold water and if you were lucky to get any hot water if someone else in another shower you hot water would go away. Again no soap dispensers in the bathrooms.
based upon the condition of your facilities I should be refunded the money i paid to stay in these 2 campgrounds

Apgar is a lovely campground very near the park entrance at West Glacier. The campsites are spacious and not too close to neighbors. Clean restrooms and easy walk to the village. A train passes through town, so you hear train whistles day and night, which could be charming if you like trains, or annoying if you're hoping for a wilderness experience, which Apgar is NOT. Contrary to what was advertised, not all sites have tent pads, and our site (B-72) was small and only had space for 1 tent. We had to pitch the other on the gravel parking space, which was not great. We brought kayaks and it was really easy to get our boats inspected at 7:00 am at the station just right outside the entrance to the campground. We parked at the day-use lot on Lake McDonald and put the boats in there. Gorgeous lake, and best to paddle in the am, as the wind picks up. We will be back, and have noted the more spacious sites that can accommodate two large tents. WiFi available at the Apgar Visitor's Center. If you don't have a vehicle permit for Going to the Sun Road, Recreation.gov makes permits available at 7 pm sharp the night before. Go to the VC with your device and log in at 7:00...you will likely get a permit, as did everyone gathered there for the same purpose. We did not experience the insanity of crowds and lack of parking we had been warned about. Maybe because all the regulations are working. It was very pleasant all the way around, and spectacular scenery. Wow!
