This was our favorite campground in the park! Loved the space between each site, the walk to the lake. Just had the best vide and not far from the park! Excellent location. Will highly recommend!

This is a fantastic campsite with lots of shade and a short little trail takes you right to the shore of lake McDonald. We fell asleep at night to the sound of waves lapping the shore. Try to grab this site!

Campground was clean and it was nice to have a few showers in the campground. The showers were in high demand in the evenings.

This is a cozier glacier campground that is still close to the west entrance but feels more secluded.

I loved this campground, it was low key but stunning and easy access to the park! Its right on the lake but set off slightly. You could see the water peaking through the trees at my campsite. These sites are a bit hit or miss on setup, mine was great for a tent but slightly slanted for car camping. Some in our loop were definitely only good for tents vs RVs or cars (unless you’re an expert with some levels). The bathrooms were very clean and overall the place was calm and great. I will definitely stay here again, but if you have hikes planned in Many Glacier maybe split time between this site and one on that side as its very far from that side!

Fish Creek is a lovely campground! Facilities were nice and clean, the campground was quiet, and having easy access to Lake McDonald is wonderful. One thing to be cautious of - each site has a max of 8 people, and at the two sites we used, 8 would have been a big stretch. The usable tent pad area was really closer to 4, but using the driveway on one site we got up to six. And then couldn't use the fire ring on that site because of tent proximity. These were sites 138 and 140. Again, very nice sites just a little tight if you have a bigger group.
