What Guests Are Saying
Sprague Creek Campground offers a beautiful location right on Lake McDonald, with well-maintained sites and clean bathrooms. Campers appreciate the friendly host, Ed, who is knowledgeable and helpful. While some noise from the nearby road can be a drawback, the campground's scenic views and access to the lake make it a favored choice for visitors seeking a quieter experience in Glacier National Park.

Love being by the lake. Road noise was loud at our site.

Campground is small, only 24 sites, so pretty quiet and not much traffic. Its near the main road, so a bit of road noise but not much. Lots of trees and the campground is very shady, some sites are overlooking Lake McDonald. The campsites are pretty close together, and its very easy to see your neighbors, so not much privacy. Two sites nearest the bathroom have a path right through the campsite to the bathroom, so there's people walking near or through the campsite to get to the bathrooms.

The campground is well located within the park, a reservation here also serves as your GTTS road pass so that's nice. However, the campground is very close to the road, so not very peaceful, especially during the day.

Terrific campsite, very friendly host. Only issue (that clearly is not specific to the campsite) is that one of the neighbors decided to play their bagpipes for 2 hours. Who does that?

This was our favorite campground in Glacier! It's very small and doesn't allow generators, which makes it nice and quiet. We loved being able to walk down to the lake with our coffee, and the shuttle right across the street from the campground was super convenient.

This is a wonderful quiet and small campground right on the shores of Lake McDonald. We had a deer visit daily. Site 16 has a private path going right to the lake. The only downsides were the road noise and mosquitoes.

I love this sweet campground on the lake and was ecstatic to get a couple nights there and share them with my niece who'd never been to Glacier.

This is a beautiful campsite along McDonald Lake. There is some road noise, but I appreciate that no generators are allowed to be used in the campground. Camp Host was very nice.
