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.
Guide
We picked this park for convenience while having travel trailer brake issues. Came at close of season, and thankful for a later evening check in. A little disconnect to obtain a bathroom Code. Fortunately we saw camp hosts walking dogs to gain access. Dog friendly, including nice gated area for off leash.

This campground was very cute. The owners were so friendly and accommodating. The resident cat Poncho was a hot with our kids. The showers were small, but we're hot and free! The lawn was great with a communal fire pit and small playground. They let travelers camp there for 12 per person per night in a tent if that's what you're looking for. The cafe was cute and the drinks were delicious. We didn't eat, but it looked good! I would stay here again foe sure.
RangerThis place was nice. The staff was so friendly. Cafe with giant cinnamon rolls hit the spot. Showers were nice and hot. We were in the middle of tall trees which provided shade later in the day. Nice big dog park. Location is close the west Glacier entrance

I stayed here in December of last year over the holidays and had a great experience. The manager, Paige, was awesome. Very accommodating and nice. The check-in experience was quick and easy and the spot was great. My family and I had a great time and plan on coming back in the future. Town was close by and we were able to see all the destinations we wanted to nearby.
TravelerWe stayed for 2 weeks this summer and loved everything about our stay. The park was very clean and well maintained and the manager was lovely. You can tell she loves her job. The park is very conveniently located, only 15 minutes from Glacier and a short walk to town. We had dinner at Gunsight Saloon and picked up fresh steaks from Perfect Cuts Specialty Meats. Bathrooms and showers we better than expected and the park wasn't full of noisy families.
Guide
Owners were very accommodating, we snuck in on their closing weekend to visit glacier national park. The showers were clean and hot, owners were courteous and so nice. And the view of the sunset from the lakeshore is amazing!

We have stayed for a few nights over the 4th of July, 2023 at this place to visit Glacier National Park. The only good about this place is that the campground(not a resort by far) is relatively close to the East side entrance of the park(~20 miles). There are really not many choices to camp on the East side of the Glacier National Park, but I strongly recommend KOA St. Mary's over Glacier Grizzly campground if you are able to find availability at KOA. The pictures on Glacier Grizzly's website do keep changing constantly and most of the pictures are taken of some other places and not theirs. I am attaching few pictures of what it is really over there. The place is all gravel with water, sewer and electric hookups. They used to advertise 50amp hookups(they have stopped doing so since), but there were only 30amp hookups available at the time of our stay and I really doubt anything changed since. The sites are indeed fairly spacious, though fire pits are simply hole dugouts in the gravel. There was only one, recently built shower house available for the whole campground(2 showers and 2 toilets), but upkeep of it was lacking- no toilet paper, no hand soap, no way to dry your hands after using a restroom, nobody cleaned shower house during our entire stay! As an icing on the cake, one of the toilets got clogged and nobody had bothered taking care of it for a few days. Furthermore, there were only a couple locations for a garbage disposal that were overflowing with garbage. For around$130/night, we have definitely expected more. All the negative reviews are fairly accurate about the campground and the service(or lack of the service) provided.

The host was very nice. We had a tucked away camp spot
Guide
We had a space near the dog play area which is very nice. Local employees come in the evening for talk and dog play-nice people and nice dogs. Great wifi laundry and showers. Room for big rigs. There is road noise
Guide
We were in site 14. We had water and electric. The shower house was old and outdated. Our electric hook up was on the wrong side. There was no wifi and no cellular service except at the office. There was also a lot of road noise. No dog facility.
Ranger
Heart of Glacier RV park had an awesome view of Gun-site ridge. Its just awesome to wake up in the mornings , walkout side and see Gun-site Ridge.
The campground also has fred wifi. There also a laundry-mat and his / her shower and bathroom facilities.
The entrance to East Glacier National Park is just 2.2 miles from the campground plus the drive around is sooooo awesome !!!
Guide
We had an amazing time here! The views can’t be beat and to have adult saunas and hot tubs is 👍🏼👍🏼! The on-site restaurant was good, drinks from the airstream were excellent and the nightly live music was great! Proximity to the park and shopping in Kalispell or Whitefish was close too! We’d definitely visit again!
ScoutWhat a great stay and beautiful mountain views. My wife loved this place. It was nice and peaceful. The facilities were clean and we used the laundry services for the kids clothes. Had a great experience. Will definitely be back.
ScoutWrecked enroute to campground a week before our reserved stay. Tried to cancel and was told by owner he would have to call back with cancellation number. He never called and refused to answer phone or emails.
He has since told me he will not honor refund policy on his website.
Do yourself a favor and spare yourself headaches and dealing with your credit card companies to report a fraudulent merchant!
Stay away! Also have heard reports that photos on his site are BOGUS!
We have camped all over the country. Our first wrecked RV and our first encounter with a fraud and a crook campground owner!
Traveler
A spacious place among the trees, clean toilets. Besides, it is located between a main road and a railway that passes with high frequency. There is not much to do there, just the middle of the road. Because of the proximity to the glacier it costs a lot, and in any case it is not worth the price compared to other places.
Traveler
Great place. Well-kept, clean and tidy. The staff helps with everything needed. There is space for walking around and grass for children's games and just sitting in front of the view of the forest. Although a bit expensive, these are the prices around Glacier.
RangerWe had a beautiful site with a view of the mountains. Our dog Bentley loved the spacious while we enjoyed the delicious cinnamon roles from the bakery at the General Store! 😋
The Resort is located a short 2.5 miles from the entrance of Glacier National park. So it doesn't take long to get out to you favorite hiking trail or lake for boating or swimming.
ScoutGreat Location On the East Side. Was easy to get to Many Glacier, Two Medicine East Glacier entrances. The staff was helpful and had plenty of tips on how to get in the Park and told us about tours we could to take. We stayed 6 nights in our Motorhome.
TravelerBeware! The people running this business are con artists, liars with no ethics and no morals. I booked for a Glamp Tipi for 1 night for an overpriced $440. The evening of the reservation, they texted me and said that their "power is out" on all the furnished tipis and told me they have an RV instead. I said I did not want an RV because we already have one but really just wanted the tipi experience. Lori told me that she could only offer me what they have or we could just cancel. I said I will just cancel then if they can't provide what I booked for and then asked her if I will receive my refund within a few days. She said "yeah definitely". 3 week later, I noticed I still have not received my refund. I left her a few text messages, it shows that she read them but she did not respond. I called their toll-free number and Daniel answered. I explained to him what happened. He said that Lori no longer works there anymore and she probably didn't respond because she doesn't care. He said he will take down my name and number and check the system and call me back tomorrow morning. He never did. The next day, I called him back several times throughout day and he never answered the phone. This is such shady business practice. At this point, I got really worried that I'm a victim of fraud and that they have stolen my money and hiding now. I started to look up the online reviews and noticed all the negative reviews were similar stories to mine. I texted Lori again confronting her and she finally replied "I'll check back with the cancellation department and let you know when I hear about your refund." Obviously she is lying because Daniel just told me she no longer works there! And of course she never did check and never ever got back to me, even when I texted her multiple times to follow up after that day. How can they think that they can just steal innocent people's money and run off and get away with it?! I called my credit card company to dispute the charges because this business refuses to cooperate and refund me for a service that they could not provide. I called them a hundred times and through other avenues and they clearly are avoiding me. I know there are many others like me who have been scammed by them. We should all band together and take legal class action lawsuit because what they are doing is wrong and so that they don't keep doing this to more people! I found so many fake reviews they did for themselves to offset the ton of negative reviews they receive. There are obvious telltale signs that the positive reviews are so fake. They are a huge disgrace to the genuine Blackfeet Tribe community.
ScoutWe stayed for a quick overnight between Glacier. The campground is in a perfect place and once the construction is done it will be great! We were in a 39' MH and the hookups were solid, internet was awesome. Nice flat ground and appeared very family friendly. All the amenities aren’t quite in place but i think given time it will be a very nice Park.
ScoutWe camped at Glacier Grizzly campground in our Class C Motorhome. We read reviews that they don’t have 50 amp sites. They did. The campground was at a Great location close to the East entrances.
ScoutStayed for a few days in July. Had easy access entrance to the campground. Self check in was great as we came in late night and the staff was nice. We were in a pull through site.
ScoutThe employees are friendly and helpful. Campground was brand new and not over crowded, like most RV sites in Glacier. The kids had fun fishing on the river at the campground and even caught 2 fish.
ScoutWe stayed in a 39 foot Class A motorhome. We only stayed one night on our way to the West Side. Staff are very nice and helpful. Entry and exit is easy. We didn't use any amenities as we were there for only one night.
ScoutWe stayed here in August in an RV+tent site and loved the location! Close to the Park, restaurants and all that's going on the East side! Our only negative is that their bathrooms get really busy, with having extra large hot water showers. They were really clean and new.
GuideWe stayed in site F16. It is close to the main lodge and the cafe.
The showers and bathrooms were very clean.
The campground is about 1 mile from the west entrance of glacier park!
