St. Mary Campground offers a great experience with informative ranger talks, clean facilities, and helpful hosts.

While some campers noted noise and mosquito issues, the overall ambiance, accessibility to activities, and friendly staff contribute to a positive camping experience.

Great campground. Friendly hosts. Close to activities, hiking and river. Bathrooms are crowded at night so shower mid day.

Of all of the campgrounds in glacier, this was the most unimpressive. Left our site at 9pm to see the star gazing experience with the astronomy program and when we returned in our van, someone had parked in our site and removed our reserved tag on the post.

The location is great and we had good cell reception with Verizon. Town and the St. Mary Visitor Center is very close and it's nice having showers (in the C loop). Tree coverage is sparse and the sites are very close together. Although we had our own drive, table, and fire ring, we were essentially sharing a space with another group. There was no clear division.

We love how the campsite felt secluded from others. Bathrooms were close and we enjoyed our stay.

C125 had a small tent pad. Site is surrounded by bushes, so sheltered by wind and a little more private than some of the others. Close to toilets and fresh water. Rangers came round regularly, advised us of bear activity although no bear box on this site.

C124 has a small tent pad with no shade, exposed to the wind. Clean toilets and fresh water close by. Excellent talk on mountain goats by a very engaging ranger. Showers are free, warm but a little walk away.

A10 is a small site with shade and privacy. Had its own water tap and a bear box close by. Toilets about a 3 minutes walk away. Close to the half mile trail to the visitor centre.

St Mary’s Lake campground is lovely and well organized. The rangers and hosts are nice and helpful. The evening ranger talks are awesome. I would camp here again.

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.
