I loved our campsite! We were,a shirt hike from the waterfront and a short walk to the bathrooms which had running water and showers. The hot water was iffy but the shower got done! Plenty of area to walk. Not far from Apgar Village where we bought firewood. The campfire was very nice.

We had a very nice site - right by the lake but some trees around for privacy.

Fish creek was a lovely spot! The "creek" (more like lake) access was amazing. Loved that the spots were pull-through style. Made it very easy to set up, leave, and repeat! One thing to note is that Fish Creek is right outside of the checkpoint for Going to the Sun Road (required reservations). This made it very difficult to get anywhere in the park. Had to drive 2.5 hours around!

Very nice campground. Our campsite #177 had a trail leading down to lake McDonald. Good sized site with lots of trees for hammocks and good shade durning the day. Bathrooms right across from the site.

Nice big campsite, lots of trees, short walk to restroom building. Access to Lake McDonald was just a short walk along the road on the other side of the restrooms.

Excellent spot next to the river, lake, and rocky point. Site was easy. There was no iron cooktop for the fire and the women’s toilet paper was out so maybe grab some extra supplies. Great stay will return!
