"Bowman lake is beautiful, and the bumpy ride on the gravel road is a small price to pay for the serenity of reaching the finger lakes in the northwest of Glacier NP."
"I love Bowman Lake. I've camped here more than anywhere else in Glacier. I've seen bears, the northern lights, and done many wonderful hikes in the area.
The best thing about the campground, though?"
$30 / night
"This is a classic NPS campground (I think it is the 2nd largest in Glacier) but surrounded by a decade-old burn. It is right across from Apgar, but with a quieter feel and you can book online!"
"Scenery abounds, shaded private sites, directly on Lake McDonald, convenient location, and terrific staff.
Camped loop C (non-generator) which was perfect for our teardrop camper. "
$45 - $90 / night
"Apgar is walking distance from the Apgar Visitor Center and park shuttles, as well as Apgar Village, camp store, equipment rentals, etc."
"I could see 6 or 7 other camp fires burning while sitting next to mine.
We stayed three nights and every night heard someone a site or two over as he was talking too loud (and too much)."
"Dusty rough road but you can go in the back door of glacier and not have to wait in lines and you are on the road to polebridge mercantile. Wish i had stayed longer"

$75 / night
"Montana is absolutely gorgeous! I may be biased because I go to college in Montana, but there is so many great outdoor activities. The mountains and scenery are my favorite."
"Great place tucked away from the road. Sites are smaller. Place was clear even the showers. Hot water in the morning not so much at night."
$22 - $325 / night
"Close to Glacier..Polebridge is a must see..the colored stones in the clear cold water..a person could go on forever..you just need to experience this yourself!"
"The national park campgrounds fill fast and are crowded and noisy, but this gem is positioned just outside of the quietest park entrance and feels way out there."
$10 - $15 / night
"Very nice campground on the lake and next to the drainage creek. Off the beaten path and takes some commitment to get to, but well worth the drive."
"The drive here wasn’t easy, but once you’re there it is worth it. You are camping right along Kintla Lake where many kayak, swim, etc."
"This is a big RV resort close to West Glacier town and park entrance. We came with our 25’ RV and reserved a tent pad site to ensure we were up against the edge of the resort."
"9/13/19 West Glacier, Montana
West Glacier KOA Resort
Most beautiful location of the KOAs I've stayed at. Nestled against the mountains and less than 3 miles to Glacier National Park. "
"It’s so close to the National Park entrance and a beautiful place to stay. The road is a bit bumpy getting down here but there’s plenty of room for tent camping and RVs. Be careful though!"
"TLDR; quick & easy drive (minus a little stretch to drive down to the river), beautiful riverside view, pleasant and generous neighboring campers."
$90 / night
"When you stay at Many Glacier you are situated in the heart of the best hiking and wildlife viewing in the park. Grizzly sightings on the slopes nearby are an almost nightly occurrence."
"There is a store and restaurant close by in walking distance along with showers and laundry(you have to pay). Multille hiking trails, fishing and an abundance of wildlife."
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.
GuideThis is a nice campground. The sites are spacious and clean. The only drawback is the traffic on the road throughout the day.
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
GuideThe road is rough but next to the river. Nothing fancy at all but quiet and relaxing.
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!
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.
GuideVery family friendly. Good bathrooms and clean. It was quiet and people are friendly. Next to the lake and some spots give views to the sky for solar.
ScoutThis place is excellent. The yurts are clean, it's incredibly quiet around there and the scenery is stunning. It's the perfect place at Glacier National Park to make a base camp and explore the region. And the food at the mercantile right there is great. I highly recommend this place for adventure travellers.
