Rising Sun Campground

Great place to enjoy the beauties of Glacier National Park! Perfect location and surrounded by pure nature and wildlife. Loved everything about this campground.

The facility was perfect. The sites, while not far apart, still had enough distance and greenery between them that we didn't feel too close to our neighbors. The store nearby was perfect. Overall, it was our favorite campground we stayed at while in Glacier. Will definitely be back :)

We were so lucky to get a spot in a weekend...keep checking the website, it changed from am to on. Loved it and should have stayed longer. Bonus...bear in our site!

The park ranger was very rude in an interaction we had. My wife and I had been traveling all day and had just gotten camp set up when some park official came up to us and told us that we had to pack up and leave immediately due to the soft sided tent that we had due to bear activity. Now this alone we understand having spend our entire life’s in bear country but for one there where no signed posted anywhere in or around the park or online and then when we asked for clarification he held his hand up and said he didn’t want to hear it and expected we leave. Due to this we didn’t get to see or enjoy the park hardly at all and have a very unpleasant taste left in our moths from the interaction.

If you are to implement rule changes and not tell anyone before hand it is extremely rude to absolutely dismiss people when they have quantifying questions.

Despite the campground being closed to tents (bear threat) and despite the rain - I had a wonderful experience. Camp host was helpful and laid back. Excellent location and the site was good.

Was not advertised well that tents were not allowed

The spot is beautiful, the people camping there were not. Rules aren’t enforced so it made for a sucky, not to mention dangerous, experience. People were scraping off and washing dishes at the spigot (during an active “bear in the area” alert), another group partied until 1:30am and a few of them just crashed outside in sleeping bags on their trampoline (yes, full-size trampoline!) - a restriction for hard-sided vehicle camping only was in place. We came for wilderness and got Walmart.

Liked the fact that I could make a reservation the day of, there was always availability first thing in the morning

The campground is in a beautiful, quiet setting. The facilities are old and dated but clean adn well-kept. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Most site are small and not very level. Not a good spot for larger campers.

We went on a last minute trip to Glacier and were lucky enough to get a spot at the Riding Sun campground. It was so beautiful and magical being able to camp inside the park. We were just camping in the back of our truck with a topper. The site we had was a pull thru site and it was pretty level. My husband only had to try a couple of times to get the truck completely level. Our 10 year old daughter wanted to stay camping there forever. The campground host was very nice and knowledgeable. They have the cutest general store that has coin operated showers. There are also bathrooms right in the campground which was very nice.
