We stayed for 2 nights and it was perfect. The campground is small but right next to the water. Some spots appear to be larger than others and have better areas for placing a tent. Not all spots have the ability to hang a hammock. The camp host was always there and available to help. They checked us in right away.
The site is close to the road so there was some car noise but it wasn't too bad.

We loved the quietness and cleanliness of Sprague Creek. The only downfall of this campground is that the sites are really close to one another.

This quiet, small campground has everything needed for a pleasant break after a long day. I enjoyed the lake front spot, with multiple easy access points sore the lakeshore.

#11 was a very convenient site. You are next to the rest rooms. So light pollution is a thing. Camp is quite by the time it was dark & while we were in camp most people walked around our site on the way to the restroom. Also there are no shower facilities. Site had full sun in the afternoon. Tent pad was big enough for our large tent & parking was large enough for a full size truck.

Great campground. Too close to the road, so if you can, book the lake side. You do not need a timed entry ticket for Going to the Sun Road if you have a reservation in Sprague or Avalanche Campground. It is definitely worth it if you can book this campground.

The campground was very beautiful and right on the water. I liked being farther back from the Going to the Sun road so we could not hear as much road noise. The camp was clean and my kids loved being able to walk right to the lake next to our campground while I cooked. The campsite is SMALL though. Compared to our site in the Tetons, you had very little room to pitch a tent and eat at your table, that is all. I think what I found hard about the trip was Glacier is too overrun with people that you almost can't experience anything! Every parking spot is taken at trailheads or view points and the ONLY way you are able to see it is if you rise at 4am and go or stay up late and go at night. With little kids, that is not always possible. We had a very hard time doing anything in the park because of how busy it was. We ventured down to Apgar village and it was like Disneyland! People everywhere and no place to park. Getting out in nature was not peaceful at all. I wish the park would limit how many visitors it got at any given point. I am not just talking about the pass for the Going to the Sun road either, I'm talking about the entire park period. The other solution is make more parking available so people can actually hike the trails you have rather than just have 15 spaces with no parking on the street......

Awesome campsite! Camp host is really sweet - Joan - but she will read you the riot act if you leave a fire unattended or food out unattended!!!

We love Sprague Creek! It’s a lovely little campground, and it was perfect for our needs, as we came to hike and cycle in Glacier!

Beautiful campsite, although lots of mosquitoes when we were there in June. Some road noise nearby in the morning but otherwise the site was good. Spacious and plenty of room to park and set up tent on flat ground
