I had been wanting this particular campsite for years, somehow I finally got it and it was everything I hoped for. I am not sure what you did differently that allowed me to get this campsite, but I hope you keep it up. Thanks!

This site is at the entrance to D loop. We backed in easily and set up our tent in a cleared area (no marked tent pad). We snagged a reservation using the four day window and are noticing that the sites made available may be somewhat less desirable. The hosts warned of an active black bear named Reggie and made sure we locked everything in the vehicle. There is a 10 mph sign directly in front of our site that is not adhered to by those on D loop so the kids on bicycles needed to be extra careful. The showers were only available on A loop and you can’t drive and park to use them so a bicycle worked well to commute to A loop.

Compacted, lack of privacy, small sites sitting very close to the road. Restrooms were tended to regularly, fortunately, fresh water tap accessible, but practically on site of a family's lot (saw many crossing through their campsite to get to the tap). Large picnic table & firepit rings at each site, easy walk to Lake MacDonald. Volunteer patrol policing your belongings if leaving your site for the day due to bear activity -- our food was stored away in our vehicle, but our propane grill was left on the picnic table, and the volunteer "going to issue a written warning," but selectively chose us vs the other sites immediately adjacent to us who left out water, cooking implements -- love the random enforcement. Overall, wouldn't recommend Fish Creek.

Location was nice. Easy walk to the lake and bathrooms. Not a ton of privacy but the campground was incredibly peaceful.

C-107 was one of the best campsites I have stayed at for three days and two nights.
There was a small trail down to Lake McDonald with a gorgeous view of the Rockies.
Also there was a walking trail just below my campsite which I hiked and it was so beautiful.
There was a restroom with flush toilet and water spout across from this campsite.
My site was very clean and the park rangers were very friendly and gave a lot of information about the park.
I enjoy Glacier National Park very much and with this visit I went to Kintla Lake and Bowman Lake which are very beautiful.
Wildlife, I saw mule deer and sandhill cranes.
This was my 8th time visiting Glacier and there is always something new to check out.
Enjoy

Great campground with nicely private sites. About 30 minutes from the west entrance to Yellowstone. Would definitely stay again.

We got in late, but easily found out site. It's right behind the bathrooms/showers. This meant people thought it was ok to continually walk through our site.
Lots of trees & mosquitoes. Wish I had packed better bug spray - definitely needed deet at this campground.
Short walk to the lake, which was beautiful in the morning! Camping host said a little bear was poking around, but we didn't see him.

clean bathrooms, there are only showers in the A loop and there are only 4 showers total, however showers were never busy when we went, there are shared bear boxes (not one per campsite, campsites were nice!

Thrilled to snag a last minute reservation for inside Glacier NP! Really appreciate how they’ve changed the reservation system to allow a few reservations just prior to the planned visit- giving travelers some much appreciated flexibility without the stress of depending on first come first serve options. The B loop has densely packed sites- some more so than others. B61 was on a slope making it a challenge to level our class C. But all worth it to be inside the park!
