This was a great place to stay for us! The lots are well maintained and even though spacing is close, it doesn’t feel that way due to the row of trees and shrubs separating the spaces. There is a store and other facilities onsite. The hosts are very kind. This campground is located very close to the Glacier National Park Entrance. I would highly recommend this place.
