Great location. Close to all activities but not in the middle of them. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Campsites were nice, relatively close to each other, but not bad. nice hikes nearby.

I'd give it 10/5 if possible.
Staff was friendly, site was great, kids had fun.
Should have brough a little more padding for the ground, as there were some large gravel pieces, but other than that everything was great.

One of our favourite campgrounds. Stays cool in the summer heat and right on the lake!

Great location to be away from crowds, have lake access, showers, and a little bit of cell signal. The Rangers here are very nice and helpful, too.

It was so loud at night after two nights we got a hotel in Whitefish until the loud people left. The camp hosts only come around at 9:30 pm and don't return during quiet hours.

Hastle free booking process, clean campgrounds and restrooms, friendly and welcoming park staffs. Breathtaking views throughout Going-to-the-sun road, Hidden lake outlook and Jackson Glacier Outlook being the favourites. Don't miss the dark sky. It's marvelous!!!!

Peaceful location sitting right above Fish Creek. Our site was conveniently close to water, bathroom, and dumpster. The shower is in loop A and required driving to the amphitheater parking to access. Site was far enough from Lake McDonald that it's easiest to drive to the picnic area to access the lake. Some cell service at Site with both Verizon and AT&T.
Overall enjoyed our stay at this site and would camp here again.

First off, you’re in Glacier NP, so an absolutely great location. The downsides .. very limited bathroom facilities, just a couple per campground loop, and not very well maintained. Also, many of the sites have very limited level areas, if at all. Also, the park service should provide “slope” information on each site; the site photos are pretty lame and not helpful at all .. better to rate each site on degree of slope (I.e., negligible, moderate, high or extreme) so you know what you’re getting. Reserved a site that was supposed to accommodate a 25’ RV, though leveling the unit was extremely challenging. Would have been nice to know that up front.
Gorgeous campground right on the lake; facilities and site details are definitely below average.

B73. Campground is noisy, camps on inner circle your door faces the road. There are lots of trees so we maintained solar battery but didn’t recharge it. There should be bear boxes at every site but there aren’t. That’s the major difficulty here: constantly having to be outside with smelly items or put them away. Bear boxes are shared, therefore we didn’t use to avoid having our grill stolen. Bathrooms have a smelly dish water disposal sink which is a great feature. Showers were on loop A so didn’t use them.
