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.

Camping so close to the lake was super fun. The water was surprisingly warm and the campsite was very clean. There were food lockers every other campsite which was nice.

This is a nice campground with clean bathrooms and a great location. My one complaint was that I booked my stay before coming into the park, so I was not fully aware of the scale of the construction happening on the going - to - sun - road. My camping site backed up to the road, which resulted in lots of road noise all day which was ok because I was not there. At night a pilot vehicle and construction vehicles were driving by all night with flashing lights. Luckily I had earplugs, but depending on who you are, you might not get any sleep. It would have been one thing if I was fully aware of the situation, but the park or campground side didn't really give the whole picture.

What can you say about Glacier that hasn't been said? Lake McDonald is as beautiful as anything I've seen in my life. Hiking Brown Mountain was a ball buster. Night hiking from the Belton Amtrak station 9 mi to my camp from 10pm - 1am was thrilling.
The camp host was great. The Rangers were great. It's nice to see tax dollars well spent. It's so rare.

Nice, smaller, quiet campground especially for tent campers. Easy access to Lake McDonald. Some sites even have amazing views of the lake.

You can add an RV/Trailer to reservation but they are not allowed for obvious reasons. Pls fix and refund my money.
