Great experience! Campsites are in very close proximity, but understandable to accommodate as many as possible to enjoy the park.
Grizzly Bear in the north half of the complex. So cool to watch the bear from a safe distance. Rangers and camp host handled the situation superbly by reminding everyone to keep their sites clean and food stored properly.

Nice small campground with a gorgeous view of the lake. The avalanche lake hike is an easy hike near by but worth the trip for the view at the end. If you’re feeling ambitious we saw lots of mountain goats on the path to mount brown which was a fun experience with a beautiful view.

Such a great campground. Ed was the best Campground host! Simple and quiet after hours. We stayed for a week and had to switch around sites (this is a very busy campground when it's nice out!), but honestly they are all great-especially on the lakeside:)
We will be back!

We actually didn’t stay the night we reserved due to weather and schedule conflicts. I love the sprague campground because of its accessibility to the lake.

The very best thing about our experience at Sprague Creek was the campsite host, Ed! He was so helpful, so friendly, and so passionate about the camp and park. He really added to our excitement about being at Glacier. Our campsite was beautiful-we had a view of Lake McDonald. I had my best sleep of the entire trip at Sprague Creek!

Gorgeous campground, and friendly ranger. We loved our spot by the lake! Best view ever. The only issue was construction noise at night along the road.
