I would have loved to come and visit Glacier but never got a chance as it snowed and rained for the time that we would have come. Also we heard that the park or at least part of it closed down. So even if we had gone we would not have been able to go anywhere. We tried asking for a refund before we got there but you did not offer one not even for half of the money back. We did not know what the weather was going to be like until a few days before.

I was astounded how respectful and quiet the other campers were. As more of a backcountry person my wife and I were thoroughly impressed!!

Great Camping spot. Just the right amount of space. Quick and easy access to the beach by Lake McDonald. Nice restroom and shower area and writhing walking distance and very close to the campsite. Who knows you may have some wildlife walk in and say hello. Like my daughter and I did. Two bucks in velvet strolled in on our second night. Peacefully eating in the trees. They didn’t bother anyone.

Great site, no huge but perfect for our 8x8 tent/suv tent, flat surface, clean, close to bear box, water (no fresh drinking water), bathrooms were nice, shower house was a bit of a hike but not bad when you have such a pretty hike!

This was a lovely place to camp. No generators in the loop made for a relaxing visit. Appreciated the day-long shade which kept everything nice and cool. There was a trail from our campsite down to the lake which was just perfect!

We were disappointed and frustrated when we arrived at the campground to find that there was no safe potable water in the campground. It was frustrating to have no notice of this, so that we could have packed water in before our arrival. We were also surprised, after coming from Tetons and Yellowstone, that each campsite didn’t have a bear box. We ended up using a nearby bear box because none of our neighbors was using it. But we felt lucky that it was available, as it would have been nearly impossible for our family of 5 to safely camp in a pop up without a bear box.

Total of 4 showers for all loops of Fish Creek campgrounds, but only 2 operational, 1shower per over 100 campers?
Volunteers for campgrounds were wonderful and helpful.

Very friendly staff and a great campground if you are in a RV or enclosed vehicle and can dampen the noise of generators. If you are in a tent make sure you are in loop C. When we arrived the RV next to us ran their loud generator for an hour so we chose a different campground at Glacier. Note: one must book a drive on Going to the Sun Road and the Shuttle does not stop at Fish Creek so you will need to drive to Apgar. Other then that a great campground for families who would like activities and lake fun.

Great campground, just far away from the hustle and bustle to be peaceful but very close to everything! There's running water, drinking water, disposal sites, and comfortably sized sites. Great space!
I'd recommend it to anyone and everyone!

One my all time favorite campgrounds. Loops c and D are the best.
