"Most of the sites are along the water, but seem a little close to one another. Fortunately, the woman at the gate told me about sites T1 and T3."
"Flathead Lake is a very large wonder of nature and the town of Polson is perfectly situated. You will not see a more gorgeous mountain range. "
"It’s about 3 miles of the main road around Flathead lake , nestled in a beautiful lakeside neighborhood."
"There are a select few sites yards away from the water, each with a bit of beach. The biting bugs were minimal, but the swarms of other bugs were impressive, and the fish obviously loved them."
"West Shore State Park was a beautiful way to spend an afternoon after kayaking to Wild Horse Horse Island State Park nearby. The water was clear and the dogs throughly enjoyed splashing around."
"On Flathead Lake with views of the lake. Choose loop B if you want electric. Loop A doesn't have electric and is closer to the highway. Good trails to the lake."
$10 - $90 / night

"I love living in Montana and being able to hike some of the best spots ever. Flathead is also an amazing spot, so really any campground in the area is good in my opinion."
"Very close to the beautiful town of Bigfork and great amenities, yet it feels tucked away. Right on Flathead lake, can’t beat the views!"
"Right next to beautiful golf course in Polson MT. All the hookups. Pool, hot tub, pickle ball courts."
ScoutThis is a great campground that can accommodate just about any RV as well as tent campers. Choice of full hookups, water and electric or dry camping.
RangerMoved a few minutes further to this camp spot. Lots of bigger rigs at this camp site. There are wide open spots by the curve of loop. No services or cell service here. Bathrooms are available but no dumpsters.
The river was so soothing to hear. Didn’t go in due to the current being so strong. The train didn’t really bother me. Kinda cool seeing it across the river bend.
Seems like this place gets pretty full! I can see why.
RangerThis spot is quick before the turn on the road. Don’t miss it! The path to get to these spots is kinda tight. Our car was hitting branches. There are some along the road, but if you drive further down there are more spots and a bathroom. There is one spot by the water.
Dry camping. No amenities, and no service (but starlink worked great). We got here earlier in the day, towards evening more cars showed up. Car noise from the road dies down around 9pm.
It’s bug season so make sure to bring bug spray!
ScoutDeep rutted muddy holes filled with water to get to site. Sketchy low trees and narrow road. Decided not to risk it in my van
ScoutGreat campground for families. Great accommodations and friendly staff.
GuideLid Creek Campground is in the Hungry Horse Recreation area on the Hungry Horse Reservoir. The lake, Salish Mountains and Montana’s big sky are all front and center here. Lid Creek is 15 miles off U.S. 2 on a very winding but paved road. The road down to the campground is gravel, lots of tight turns but generally in good shape; we did just fine towing our 30 ft travel trailer. Double-check the campsite length when you reserve - some sites are very short and a smallish car would have trouble fitting.
The campsites include picnic table and fire pit, there are vault toilets throughout the campground and bear-proof food boxes - there are definitely bears in the area. Keep pets close by and please store food in the storage boxes. There is NO WATER available at the campground so bring your own or you’ll be frustrated. Camp host was terrific and has firewood at the host site right as you enter the campground. We had 5G of T-Mobile which was very surprising considering how far off the main highway the campground is. West Glacier is about 45 minutes away and a very easy drive from Lid Creek Campground. We loved it!
GuideFacilities are clean and nice. Good drinking water. The lake is lovely and super clear.
Firewood is available for $8 bundle and they deliver to your site. They also drive around about 7 pm and you can buy it then too.
No access to the lake from this site.
GuideGreat place to stay! Super close to Glacier Park entrance. Well maintained. The staff is wonderful. They also rent ebikes at super reasonable rates. They offer a number of different types of sites. We chose blindly online and was moved to a better site once we go there. They also offer Military and First Responder discounts. The main hyway is close by, but we didn’t hear it much in our travel trailer. We were there for three nights then went into Glacier, Apgar, for 3 nights. We wish we had stayed at Moose creek the whole time.
GuideNice campground by the water. Great hiking trails and boat ramp. Lots to do. Staying for 5 days very excited. Staff is very wonderful and welcoming. We will be back! If you tent camp, try site T 1, it's close to the water. Electric and water is available in loop B. Loop A is primitive camping.
