Small camper ground with direct access to lake McDonald. A beautiful spot for a refreshing swim, paddle board or sunset. The campground is right off the road but it was not very noisy overnight in our tent.

The worst campground experience I’ve ever had. The amenities in the campground are very nice and the camp host was wonderful but those couldn’t overcome the horrific location of the campground which is situated feet off of a major highway and results in deafening car noise all night. The spaces are all very small so there’s no space or trees between campsites. And to cap it all off, you can access Lake MacDonald directly from the campground, which should be a huge positive. However we went swimming shortly after arriving and after our plunge began to itch horribly. Turns out the lake is now warm enough that it’s full of the parasite that causes swimmers itch.
The campground was so bad we bailed on our second night (forfeited the $ already paid) to move to another campground that was more in the woods.

The campground was quiet, the host friendly and helpful, and the easy access to Lake McDonald for morning and afternoon swimming and sunset viewing was amazing.

It’s the perfect campground at Glacier. Is small and not a lot of people. Been camping here for several times now. Will continue be coming here.

Quiet, well-spaced campground for those looking to avoid the massive-RV nonsense.

The campsite was excellent and offered beautiful scenery. It was conveniently located close to the restrooms, and the lakeshore was just a one-minute walk away.

Site 8. This campsite might be the best one at this campground. Great views of the lake. No neighbors on one side due to the stairs that lead down to the lake. On the other side, the neighbors are a little close but probably can’t do any better at this campground.

Loved the lake and the camp host! Will be bringing fewer coolers next time as we weren’t very prepared for the smaller size of the shared bear box, but we managed with using our vehicle instead. Would visit again!
