Outback Montana RV Park & Campground in Bigfork provides 50 RV sites with full hookups including 30/50 amp electrical service. The park features gravel pads, water, sewer, and electric connections, with sites that accommodate various RV sizes though it's not specifically marked as big-rig friendly. Just south of Bigfork, Rollins RV Park offers full hookup sites with 50 amp service from April through October, and is designed to accommodate larger RVs with its big-rig friendly designation. Columbia Falls RV Park, located about 30 miles northwest of Bigfork, maintains 75 year-round sites with full hookups and both 30 and 50 amp service options. One RV traveler noted about Outback Montana: "Getting into our site was a bit challenging. For all of those who are looking for a back-in challenge, this is your spot! We had to go in the out which was up hill and then back in between pine trees because they are everywhere."

Most RV parks in the Bigfork region require reservations, especially during summer months when Glacier National Park visitation peaks. Cell service varies significantly throughout the area, with Outback Montana RV Park receiving positive reviews for its reliable WiFi and adequate AT&T coverage. Dump stations are available at most full-service RV parks, though some state park campgrounds nearby lack this amenity. Pet-friendly policies are common across RV parks in the region, with designated dog areas at several locations. Navigation to some RV parks may require careful planning, as mountain roads can present challenges for larger motorhomes. Winter camping options are limited, with Columbia Falls RV Park being one of the few facilities operating year-round. Propane service is available in nearby towns, and grocery stores are typically within reasonable driving distance of most RV campgrounds.

    Fish Creek Campground — Glacier National Park

    Great sites, good location

    Fish Creek campground within Glacier National Park is a great place to stay on the west side of the park. It’s within a short walk to beautiful Lake McDonald. There are no electrical or water hookups available, but there is a dump station on the way out. The bathrooms have clean flush toilets and sinks, but no soap provided. Loop A showers have great water pressure and hot water. There are plenty of water spigots throughout the campground. There are several bear proof food storage sites as well. The Fish Creek amphitheater hosts fantastic ranger talks almost every night during the summer. Most if not all of the sites in loop A are pull through, but they can be very tight for a mid size travel trailer. During our stay sit was quiet and peaceful even though every site was full. Excellent National Park campground!

    Glacier Meadow RV Park

    The Meadows

    We booked this campgrounds so we could visit Glacier National Park. If that is your intent you need to get Go to the Sun Highway access tickets way in advance. We got luck and were able to visit the Highway by taking the bus trip.

    The campground is about 45 minutes from the Going to the Sun Highway. It is a beautiful drive.

    The campgrounds is on a meadow. It is very clean and well carried for. The showers are hot, sometimes too hot. 😃 Manager was very informative. It is a quiet campgrounds with a pleasant mix of seniors and families.

    My campsite, number 34, has water, 30 Amp, 50 Amp, fire pit, and a picnic table. There is lots of room to park additional vehicles.

    The only issue is there is no cellular service unless you use there Verizon booster in the pavilion. The wifi is weak. I have a booster which gives me enough wifi to check my phone and watch movies. I found nothing else to complain about.

    Sundance Campground & RV Park

    Lots to be desired

    I reserved a site at Sundance when I couldn't find any other campgrounds close to Glacier National Park that had availability for our 40 ft Super C. It was reasonable in price compared to others, but...

    First the pros:

    1. We had a pull through site.
    2. Plenty of space for our towed Jeep to park.
    3. Beautiful trees and wild huckleberry bushes provided a peaceful setting and some privacy.
    4. It is minutes from the West Glacier entrance.

    Cons:

    1. No sewer at the sites. There is a dump station you can use on the way out.
    2. The sites are level, but just barely.
    3. Instead of a sturdy dumpster or bear-proof receptacles, there are old fashioned galvanized cans with unattached lids. All of them were completely full the three days we were there.
    4. The dog run is unkempt and has no doggie bags or even a garbage can for waste.
    5. Although the trees are nice, they are so close to the parking area that we were unable to extend our awning.
    6. The laundry room has 2 washers and 2 dryers, but only one of each works.
    7. The whole place is terribly unkempt. "Rustic" is being generous. "Junky and trashy" is more accurate.

    It is too bad that the owner, who was very nice but obviously trying to run this place all by himself, appears to have given up trying to make a nice place. There are junk cars and RVs surrounding the campground and I don't think a weed whacker has been used for years.

    I would have been okay with paying $50 a night for this place, not $90.

    Swan Lake Campground

    Beautiful dry camping site

    Swan Lake Campground in the Flathead in National in Forest near Ferndale/Bigfork Mt is a beautiful wooded campground with lots of wooded private campground spots. The host is onsite and we had no problem backing in a 40’ motorhome with a tow dolly and vehicle. I did not see any pull through spots. We didn’t have any cell service (Verizon) and cell service is spotty out towards Swan Lake. The lake is right across the street and you can rent paddleboard‘s and probably kayaks. The campground spots are level and paved with a picnic table and a fire pit. There are porta potty type bathrooms, bear food lockers and enclosed trash bins. $20 per night. Bears are active in this area. There’s a fun bar/restaurant about 10 minutes down the road towards Bigfork called the A Bar. I highly recommend it (they even carry my “Josh” Cabernet as the bar wine. You’ll find all kinds of local characters.

    Polson Motorcoach and RV Resort

    The Nicest KOA We’ve seen

    First, as we were driving up to the site, I saw these large Class A motorhomes with gazebos and lush green lawns and thought “I wish I knew about this RV park before booking,” only to find out it was the KOA! The sites are leveled, gravel pads on a hill, with a wooden deck, railings, 2 waste water hookups, and super clean facilities. The pool and hot tub were nice and clean. The staff, including the young man who escorted us to our site on check-in, were hospitable. Finally, there is a nice view of Flathead Lake. This is a destination KOA and only an hour from Glacier National Park.

    Whitefish RV Park

    Great location with AWESOME rates

    Stayed here as part of a 12 day vacation. Nice small rv park just behind a hotel which muffled the street noise a bit. I'd say 40% ish of the park is long term residents, but they were all friendly and stoped by to talk and talk about our rig. The couple who run it are incredibly nice. We were about 75 yards from the showers/bathroom which was nice. This was the first time for us to stay in an RV site with the roof top tent which we took advantage of with an electric heater and blanket for the nights. It was needed because it was high 30's in the mornings. The Glacier Nation Park gate was about 25 miles away. There were a ton of great restaurants and shops near by. I'd highly recommend stopping by the Army Navy Surplus store next to the rv park! I could see if your towing a fifth wheel or have a long setup this location could be a tight squeeze. Ohhhh yeah there is this town siren that goes off every night at 10p sharp...there is a reason behind this with some history, pretty cool...I'll let you look into that!!

    Glacier Campground

    Laid Back Wooded Park Very Close to Glacier

    Lots of amenities, friendly staff, good cell service, and very close to Glacier NP. Only reason not 5 stars is the roads are a bit tight getting into sites. Not big rig friendly.

    West Glacier RV & Cabin Resort

    West Glacier RV Park

    This park is all about location and you pay a premium for that. FHU pull through sites, pretty good wifi and no OTA TV or cable for the times not in GNP. All facilities are clean and functional. Site layout is fair with the power pedestal way forward so it's either park your tow vehicle behind your trailer or have a lot of length for all your connections. Camp side is facing west so it's pretty hot in the afternoon sun.


Guide to Bigfork

Bigfork sits on the northeastern shore of Flathead Lake in Montana, at approximately 2,900 feet elevation. The area experiences warm summers with temperatures typically reaching the mid-80s and cold winters with average lows in the teens. Campgrounds in the region often operate seasonally from May through October due to heavy winter snowfall, though some RV sites near Bigfork, Montana remain open year-round.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: Flathead Lake access from Rollins RV Park is convenient, with pontoon boat rentals available. "We rented a pontoon boat from the RV park and explored the lake. The boat rental for a whole day is equivalent to a 4 hour rental near Spokane. Great prices," notes Brett T.

Hiking nearby: Swan River Nature Trail is accessible from Bigfork. As Julia M. from Outback Montana RV Park & Campground mentions, "We did find a great running trail (Swan River Nature Trail) nearby that was 2 miles one way- flat and smooth gravel so no worries about rolling an ankle. Highly recommended!"

Mountain activities: Glacier National Park day trips are possible from campgrounds in the area. "West Glacier is about 45 minutes away and a very easy drive from Lid Creek Campground," according to Bob R. from Lid Creek Campground.

What campers like

Privacy and spacing: Wooded campsites provide separation at some parks. "The sites were all surrounded by trees. Many of the sites had their own little secluded area," reports Bea from Mountain Meadow RV Park and Cabins.

Beach quality: Lake access points vary across campgrounds. "The lake is very nice, decent temp for us," notes Darrin R. about the swimming conditions at Lid Creek Campground.

Affordable accommodations: Comparative value matters to campers. Julia M. found Outback Montana offered good value: "It was the cheapest option around the Flathead we could find and we were not disappointed! It was perfect for our needs that week. Quiet, remote, but only a mile walk to Lake Flathead where you can hop in and go for a swim."

Camp host service: Firewood availability is consistently mentioned in reviews. "Camp host was terrific and has firewood at the host site right as you enter the campground," explains Bob R., highlighting the service at Lid Creek Campground.

What you should know

Cell service coverage: Varies significantly throughout the region. "AT&T service was 2 out of 4 bars, but calls came through just fine throughout the entire park," reports Julia M. about Outback Montana.

Road conditions: Access challenges for larger vehicles at some locations. One camper at Clyde's Camp appreciated the accessibility: "Parking my truck was easy and getting into town was quick. Perfect for what my trip needed!" according to Sean L.

Campsite sizing: Measurements matter when booking. Bob R. advises about Lid Creek Campground: "Double-check the campsite length when you reserve - some sites are very short and a smallish car would have trouble fitting."

Water availability: Bring your own at undeveloped campgrounds. "There is NO WATER available at the campground so bring your own or you'll be frustrated," warns Bob R. about Lid Creek Campground.

Tips for camping with families

Playground amenities: Kid-friendly parks make stays easier with children. Brian C. highlighted this feature at Rollins RV Park: "One of the best things about the park is the great playground for kids. Our kids loved it!"

Beach swimming safety: Lake access points vary in quality and supervision. "There is a great rock beach with plenty of room for kids to play and splash," notes Elizabeth N. regarding lake access at Lid Creek.

Wildlife viewing opportunities: Animal sightings add to family experiences. "There is an area for dry camping that is very secluded where we saw deer and enjoyed walking our dogs," shares Melanie A. about Outback Montana RV Park & Campground.

Bear safety requirements: Food storage is critical. Bob R. cautions about Lid Creek: "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."

Tips from RVers

RV site challenges: Maneuvering difficulties exist at some parks. Kathy H. observed at Outback Montana: "They really stack you on top of each other in this place. I could hear every conversation my neighbors were having in detail."

Seasonal operation limits: Booking windows vary across campgrounds. Blake C. from Rollins RV Park shares: "We enjoyed our stay so much that we ended up asking if they could extend their service past October 1st and they said YES!"

Hookup configurations: Location considerations when parking. Ray & Terri F. note about Mountain Meadow RV Park and Cabins: "At least on sites 11-16, pull-throughs, the hookups are fairly close to the front of the site."

Site leveling requirements: Terrain variations need preparation. "Our site was not very level front to back and side to side, and though we got close, we couldn't get fully level," Ray & Terri F. advise about Mountain Meadow RV Park.

Big rig accommodations: Spacious options exist at certain parks. Mike from Pine Meadows RV Resort shares, "If your looking for a big quiet spot in the woods, this is the place. We have a 45' 5th wheel, and our pull through spot, as are most spots, is tremendous."
