Best RV Parks & Resorts near Heart Butte, MT

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.

This is a small, family owned native American campground. While not perfect, we ended up staying 6 nights. We had no reservations and called around. They were very accommodating. We loved how convenient it was to St. Mary (1 block) and the Many Glaciers road turnoff at Babb (8 miles). Some sites so have mountain views. Although only 2 bathrooms with showers (1 each for men & women) they were very nice with current decorating. There are new power poles in the big rig section for 50 amp. However, there is no breaker on the pole. We used a 30 amp reducer and on the 3rd night, our power relay switch fried. We had to go to Great Falls for repairs (Martin's RV Repair is the bomb). They couldn't be sure, but think it may have been a power surge, not a lose wire. The roads around the campground were dirt and not smooth. Not too bad though. The big rig section was level, gravel sites with grass area and picnic tables. No shade. The other areas for 30 amp and tent/car camping are tree shaded. The wifi could only be reached at the office. No cell at all. They do have 2 washers and 1 dryer. $2 each. This is definitely not a resort. They do try hard to accommodate. Would we go back. Yes, but only if we could get a 30 amp (our rig usage) site.

Awesome scenery and hikes close by. Going to the Sun road is amazing. Hidden Lake Overlook is not to be missed. PRO NOTE: If you like steak, Cattlemen in Babb (the only rest.) makes the best steak and lamb per hubby. Avoid the Salmon, though.

Not at all what owner Daniel promised us when we booked in February of 2023. 

The Good: Convenient place to park with a pretty view near the east entrance of Glacier National Park. 

The Bad: As of the end of July 2023, it's under construction (although no work was done the entire time stayed 6-days). It's a dirty, gravel, dust-bowl parking lot. No shade- ZERO. Couldn't use our awning because it was constantly windy. Could only use 1 AC unit because we saw no evidence of 50 amp, only 30 amp electric, despite what employee confirmed on telephone (prior to our arrival) and what's listed on the website booking page. Filthy, fly-infested, nearly unusable bathroom/showers. Construction materials scattered all over. Overflowing garbage dumpsters that said Do Not Use, the entire time of our stay. A little dead grass & weeds, but generally speaking this is a gravel parking lot. As others have said, the sewer pipes are 6-8" above grade and many flow uphill from where the camper sits, making the flow challenging. We disputed the premium rate we were charged in February and Daniel agreed to a credit. That was two weeks ago with no credit applied. We have since filed a dispute with our credit card company. We camped at Glacier Grizzly Resort- RV, Tent Site& Tipi in a Fifth Wheel.

No issues getting to this campground (CG)— it’s right off I-15, making access simple and straightforward. There’s plenty of RV parking at the office, and check-in was friendly, quick, and easy. We were escorted to pull-through site 31 with full hookups (FHUs). All sites in this CG are pull-throughs, arranged in a large outer and inner circle layout. Utilities are centrally located on the pad, making it easy to position them to suit your setup. Water pressure was strong— we used a pressure reducer. The picnic table and yard are on the driver’s side, but it works well in this setup. We had solid connectivity: 4 bars on both T-Mobile and Verizon. The CG’s 5G Guest Wi-Fi was surprisingly good, delivering 124 Mbps download and 10.2 Mbps upload. Our T-Mobile home internet hit 28 Mbps download. The CG also sells propane and has a clean, well-maintained laundry facility. Overall, this spot was good for an overnight stay before heading into Canada.

Whether you're needing a tent space, are car camping, or have an RV/camper, Johnson's of St Mary's has you covered. No matter your plans, schedule 1 meal of your stay to check out the cafe, which has some excellent food, decor, and family history.

The tent sites come with a picnic table and a fire pit. I noticed from walking around not all have a grill, so if that's important to you I'd specifically ask during reservations.

The grounds are located very close to the national park, and given how quickly the national park campgrounds reserve each year, having this oprtion close by and available was a life saver.

If you're looking to do some backcountry in the park but don't have a permit, you are well advised to show up to the backcountry offices as early as possible, and this place is nearby a station, so I liked having this option for arriving late the night before with a guaranteed spot. It was nice to be able to fill up the water bladder with potable water before all the excursions as well.

It's got token operated showers, and you get 1token/person/day with your reservation, which should be fine. Showers last 6 minutes. From the offices you can also purchase ice and firewood.

WiFi is free at the office and cafe, and available for a fee at your campgrounds. I had full bars of service at my site. It will take you 5 minutes to get to the National Park entrance, gas stations are down the road. Views from the grounds are OK, and shade is plentiful.

We have a toy hauler that is 42 feet with three slides and two decks so finding a park that can accommodate us can be challenging at times.

Glacier grizzly resort has some of the largest RV sites we have stayed in over the years, the park was quiet, beautiful surroundings and the facilities were clean.

Being i am self-employed i always need internet which can be challenging when staying at a RV park especially one that is a remote. This park has the Starling satellites so the internet was actually good, we could even live stream our shows at night.

The owner Danny and his staff were very polite and helpful and gave us local tips on some beautiful places to explore. 

We highly recommend this resort and look forward to staying here again.
