Lid Creek Campground

Tried for Lost Johnny point but it was full. Lid Creek had two open spots on a Friday of July 4 weekend- we were thankful. Got site 23. No water, no electric, generators allowed and at least 6 were going in the morning. Vault toilets but VERY clean. Hosts very helpful and available. Some sites like 13-17 were slanted somewhat. 23 was deep and pretty even. Lake is very nice, decent temp for us. Preferred Lost Johnny Point from last time we stayed, but this was a very nice second. 30 minute drive to road, another 10 to West Glacier. Some limited cell reception on Mint Mobile.

Most of the campsites face the lake and if they don't it is only a short walk away. Vault toliets, no water so bring your own. Campsite host is very noce and does supply a generous amount of wood for $6.

Very off the grid, extremely friendly hosts. Short walk from all sites to Hungry Horse Reservoir. Sites are relatively small but have a picnic table and fire pit (hosts offer fire wood). Beautiful creek through some sites.

Had a great time, stayed for several nights. Very clean sites, host did amazing job to keep things clean and make campers welcome. Reservoir access as well. Almost don't want to post review and tell others about this spot! Road to campground entrance has many turns but is paved up to that point, road into campground is a little rough but not bad, just need to drive slow

If you want less crowds than Lost Johnny Point, and a greater variety of campsites, Lid Creek is a fabulous option.  The reservoir and mountain views are spectacular, so much so that there was a respectful hush the day I stayed.  Too bad it was cloudy as the stars would have made it even more special.  I knocked a star off the review for not having any clean water sources, because none the sites were more than 30 yards or so from the campground road and for the sites not being right on the reservoir - I have a special place in my heart for waking up next to water views. But there were a ton of short trails down to the shore and nice beaches wherever you went.  The camp host was fun to talk with and on top of things.  And the price is certainly a bargain at $14.  You can very much not go wrong here.     

REVIEW FOR MPOWERD LUCI SOLAR STRING LIGHTS.  I'd give these puppies 4.5/5 stars for ease-of-use, quality-of-build and for 3 light settings that are all both intimate yet useful (for reading, partying, etc.).  They are also waterproof to splashes and light rain.  Plus, the lights last 20 hours on a low setting.  I would have liked a grippy, rubbery, non-slip base, but this is a minor quibble.  The romantic factor is also high with these lights.  You'll get better sleep regardless.

We ended up at Lid Creek after the first few campgrounds along the lake were full.

Sites are on the small side, and most are not very flat. There is a good amount of distance between sites and lots of trees so privacy is good.

There are 2 clean vault toilets and trash dumpsters.

Bear boxes are spread throughout.

Each site has a fire ring and picnic table.

Host on site sells fire wood.

Lake access is a just short walk down a trail. There is a great rock beach with plenty of room for kids to play and splash.

We encountered 2 thunderstorms during our stay... Montana weather is always unpredictable.

We had a deer walk through our site early morning, so wildlife is definitely near by.

This is my favorite place to camp. I wish we would have stayed more the two nights! It is absolutely beautiful here! Will be returning
