Good Location and camping decent. For whatever reasons they had shut down the shower/bathroom on the loop and installed a 1 Unisex hole privvy to replace it. That was totally insufficient, 3 comodes and 1 urinal out of action and a 1 holer to replace that? If any work was being done to bring the down showers back into service it didn't happen the week I was there; I never saw one nail being hammered on the roof or any work done.

The site was a bit tight because of unrestrained foliage growth where the slideout had to go. It made getting anything out of the slideout compartments quite an adventure. The barricades to prevent driving onto the tent pad were also a hassle and constantly in the way. Why not just write a ticket if someone breaks the rule?

We had our citronella candle and 2 water ketles moved to the bear box by the host. Really? I never found a single instance online of a bear being attracted to a candle and if they are atrracted to water then Glacier NP must have millions of them because there is water everywhere! LOL!

I can only rate it a good. Rules regarding pets and leashes were constantly not enforced and I saw a ranger drive past a generator running outside of posted allowed hours. Yet my candle and water kettles were a threat that required action......

Stayed here for 5 nights and loved this campground. It was quiet, had beautiful mountains views, and bathrooms were pretty clean. There’s a walking trail over to the visitor center where they hold astronomy programs. Can’t wait to come back here.

Campsites were tight and pull-throughs required one-way parking which meant our camper opened to the street. Showers were out of order/being renovated during our stay. Even though the Rising Sun CG had showers 5 miles away, they only had 1 shower gender so long lines were a thing. Even with these disappointments, I'd still book again. The location is fantastic for access to the east side or Many Glacier or Waterton, and campers don't require a pass to access the Going to the Sun Road. Also, the evening Ranger Programs were a huge hit for our kids.

Great central location for driving the Going to the Sun Rd, or day trips to Many Glacier (30 min) or Two Medicine (40min). Great views and spaces out sites. Ours was very uneven tho. Also, daily traffic at super early hours (4am) of people trying to get to other campsites. That was annoying.

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.
