Apgar Campground — Glacier National Park
Reviewed Aug. 31, 2021

Total emersion in Glacier

This campground is currently First Come, except for the group sites. We we lucky enough to snag a site and stayed 12 nights. NOTE: Rangers were measuring the sites when we were there so I suspect they are going to move this campground to reservation only for next season. The site may take a little work to level, but doable for most.

On days when the campground is full, in order to snag a site, arrive by 7 and wait in line at then entrance to the campground. You MUST have a park pass AND a Going to the Sun road pass to get through the main gate. No GTR pass? You can walk the 2 miles to the campground entrance. If you snag a site, they will give you a GTR pass for the duration of your stay.

As others have said, the sites are very generous, tree covered and private giving you the feel of being deep in the woods. Generator hours are 8-10, 12-2 and 5-7. There are 3 showers in Loop A.

This is the most beautiful place and the convenience can't be beat.
