Excellent site for our large 5th wheel. Loop is one-way, so when you pull into the site the door opens to bushes and the fire ring/tent/picnic table area is on the driver side of the site. It was fine--just a little different than we are used to. The site is on an incline, so prepare for some extra effort in leveling. We loved the nightly ranger talks in the campground amphitheater and the easy walking trail to the river and Visitor Center from the campground!

SUDDEN CANCELLATION by Recreation.gov. This review is only related to our experience with Recreation.gov, NOT the campsite, Glacier-St. Mary's. To be clear: the stay at the campground was glorious; our experience with Recreation.gov was horrific and frustrating.
We were on the road for two weeks with little cell service. We were staying in Grand Tetons, Yellowstone and wrapping up in Glacier- St. Mary's. A week before our arrival in Glacier we received an email notice (that we did not see) that our reservation had been cancelled at St. Mary's due to flooding in Loop A. I get it. It happens. Been a very unusual winter and spring in this area. What infuriated me was that between four and five days after cancelling our reservation due to the whole loop being closed for flooding, NPS re-opened the loop and Recreation.gov allowed someone else to book our site. We knew none of this and showed up at St. Mary's to be told we did not have a reservation. We later found the cancellation email once we got to a place with service. We scrambled and cobbled together a variety of sites in park and out of park to stay for our four days but it was a nightmare plus exceedingly expensive. I understand the mechanics of allowing the re-booking b/c our reservation no longer technically existed, but there has to be a better way. Do better Recreation.gov. Recontact your cancelled reservations. Try using text notices. Our National Parks are the envy of the world and offer world class experiences, vistas, views and memories. They should be supported by the same type of subcontractors. We have been staying in National Parks and using Recreation.gov for at least a decade now. This is the first time something like this has happened. It was eye opening to say the least. We will approach future trips with a different set of priorities to be sure. Future vacations will now be populated with daily worry of if our reservation will in fact still even exist when we arrive.

The worst part about this campground is that there are no trees, however, this does allow you to see the mountains at sunset. The bathrooms are new! It’s only a short walk to the lake as well. I didn’t see any showers.

Spot for tent was overgrown, 8-12 inch weeds were growing through the tent pad gravel and completely surrounded by overgrowth. Kind of scary when you are in bear country! We set up our tent in the driveway. Showers are out of order this season in St Mary campground. We had a moose walk into our campsite and through the overgrowth. Restrooms were nice.

I liked that we could barely tell that we had neighbors in the nearest campsites.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
