Great sites on the lake. Running water and sinks in the bathroom.

This campground is amazing. Close, easy access to Lake McDonald. If you are planning on going on Going-To-The-Sun Road, this campground is outside the checkpoint so you will still need a car reservation to go on that road (or wait and go between 3pm and 7am, when access is not restricted) Site A26 is VERY close to another site and close to the bathrooms (not close enough to hear the bathrooms) It had limited privacy, but that is to be expected with such a large and popular destination. Overall, we would absolutely stay here again.

Our family of 5 really enjoyed this campground. Loop A was nice & quiet and had warm-ish showers and close access to Lake McDonald for a quick dip. It felt peaceful and safe here. A great experience; our favorite campground we experienced (of 3) in Glacier.

Our campsite was beautiful and every staff member or ranger that we met was super nice! The campground itself was also fairly well maintained. My biggest issue was that there is only ONE working shower area for the ENTIRE campground (all loops). Unfortunately, whenever we tried to shower, most of the stalls were closed and there was usually a long line. Additionally, the shower areas were absolutely disgusting, with bugs and mud smeared over the walls, floors, and bench. The water was also not hot at all, in any of the bathrooms. The bathroom in C loop was usually pretty clean, but had no hot water for handwashing. The hand dryer in the bathroom was also not working and there were no paper towels to make up for it.
In terms of activities, do NOT plan on using the shuttles during your trip. We had to wait over 2 hours to board the shuttle at Apgar Visitors Center and another hour to come back down from Logan’s Pass. If you have a vehicle, try to wake up early and get on Going-to-the-Sun Rd. before the timed entry. Get on the road before 5am if you want to park at Logan’s Pass.

Great campsite with an easy walk down to pebbly beach on the lake. Highly recommend for a stay in Glacier National Park.

Campground and campsite were all very nice. Two showers were currently out of order, so the wait times for a shower were quite long.

Good experience, like when I was a kid, with big trees and quiet. Nice staff, good dump station.

My daughter and boyfriend stayed at Fish Creek C112. No cell service but, they told me they loved the campsite and being by the water. Had a blast zip lining and kayaking. They said it was one of their favorite places after hitting many national parks throughout the country.
