About Rising Sun Campground

Rising Sun Campground is located just west of St. Mary and halfway along St. Mary Lake. Campers at Rising Sun will enjoy beautiful sunrises in the morning with Red Eagle Mountain as a backdrop, and the campground serves as a convenient base camp to many day hikes located east of Logan Pass. Some sites are open, allowing for cool breezes throughout the day, while others are located among trees, accommodating those seeking some shade and privacy. Access to St. Mary Lake can be found at the Rising Sun Picnic Area, across the Going-to-the-Sun-Road from the campground.During peak summer season, nearby Rising Sun day use area offers lodging, a restaurant, camp store/gift shop, picnic area, and boat tours. Shower facilities may be available at the Rising Sun Motor Inn for a fee. Rising Sun Campground is typically open from early June to early September. During its open season, the campground is located within the Moutain Daylight Time zone (MDT).

We really enjoyed this campsite! Way less crowded than the western portion of the park. Easily walked down to the lake to enjoy paddle boarding. Otokomi Lake trailhead is just a short walk outside the campground and gives great views of the eastern valley! Facilities were clean, friendly rangers around to ask questions.
We love our National Parks and Public lands! We love our park Rangers!
Please consider contacting your representatives to increase funding to preserve these beautiful lands!

I'm just glad there was a campsite available. Really close to the shuttle to the Logan Pass. Also, the 6am shuttle always says it is sold out, but just go there and probably 3/4 of the shuttle will be empty.

Nice campground. Some campsites are a bit unlevel, but not too bad. Restrooms were kept neat and stocked with supplies. Was able to reserve 2 nights stay on the fly.
