Best Campgrounds near Bigfork, MT

I’m in a camper van and had no issues accessing the site. Dirt road, but very passable leading here. Large 30+’ motorhomes here, too. Bathroom onsite, too. Have a site that backed right up to the river.

Buddy and I stayed here for three days and enjoyed every bit of it. Site is about 3 miles past the end of the pavement. I made it in my Kia Soul, so anyone should be good haha! Had some wildlife come and visit us at night and walked the river easily for about 2 miles. Only consistent cars to pass on the road at night time were logging trucks and honda crvs. Definitely check out! PIT TOILETS WOOO! Only 3 (maybe 4) designated sites unless you park in the lot and walk to a wooded part.

Perfect spot for me and my Kia Soul on a forest service road outside west glacier. Saw some trailers and vans on my way up. Sizable turnout spot at the end of the FSR. Quite busy, but spacious enough to feel private.

Well maintained campground with clean bathrooms. There may be an issue with parking with a boat trailer at the launch, space is limited. All in all, a very nice place

This spot isn't idea for any large rig. Maybe a single vehicle. Definitely not suggested for tents. Stopped to take a break from road to the sun. About all its good for.

One heck of a location with mountain views. Ideas for smaller rigs and tents . Nice view of heavens peak.

Very large campground with A-C sections. Was very booked and spots are fairly close but rates were decent. Access to both the creek and McDonald lake.

Beginning off season, pull through site with water and electric. Uncrowded, convenient, but close to highway so a bit noisy. Bathrooms could use some heat and attention.

Private campground. Level sites, stayed in #6 right by office. Sites fairly close together. Nice pet walk area. Showers clean. Full hookups. Solid, clean, well kept place to stay.

I really enjoyed this boondocking site. They have great tent options right beside the river but not too close for flooding. Also they have a hard structured bathroom which was nice. Would stay here again. Also the road was bumpy but I managed it with my Honda Accord.

Road to this location was closed. A closed gate that looks private prevented access.

You can only park on the one side of the river and it’s very crowded. Additionally the road going down to the camping area has huge pot holes and and water so you need high clearance to get down there.

Only about 15 minutes away from Glacier National Park Westgate. I was able to stay here for multiple days. Each time was no trouble in finding a place to park. This area is popular for rafting and fishing. The surrounding area is also beautiful. There are outdoor restrooms located nearby. The camping limit for this area is 3 days. I was able to have good Verizon signal. Overall a great spot to camp.

Could’ve been a really cool camping spot but after setting up camp a couple came yelling right by my van. They were part of the homeless camp and I just didn’t feel super comfortable because they were saying really aggressive things.

At first it looked crowded but we managed two vans side by side right in the river. Everyone was respectful of each other. Fire rings available. We heard that it can be very loud and crowded on the weekends with groups/parties

Small 5 site campground. Primitive. A couple large potholes in campground road. Only sites 4 and 5 can accommodate larger campers as the road is fairly narrow to allow turning into sites.

Needed just a fast stop for the night, in a TT, after getting repairs.

Lots of noise, loud music, loud motors, cars in and out that obviously didn’t stay there off of the back of camp, and just loud racket until late at night.

Just a basic setup, but good shade. Connections were appropriate, pull in sites accommodated a standard pickup and 29 ft TT.

Reserved this deamy site right on the water. Tent 1 is closest to parking but has the most traffic going by to the other sites.

Pit toilet nearby and a quick drive to flushable toilets. Showers available with tokens from the camphost ($3 for 6 minutes) but camphost weren't around when I was looking so no personal experience here.

Got a walk in site when I showed up in the afternoon. All that was left was an RV site and they let me tent there. Even though I wasn't on the water, still got a water view! Pit toilet bathroom was close by, and sometimes the smell wafted over when the wind changed.

SUP, kayak rentals on water, reasonably priced. The beach was rocky and perfect!

In the morning, I spotted a black bear on a hill. Follow bear protocol well.
