"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."
"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. "
"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."
$10 - $90 / night
"My site is right on the lake with lake access. It’s a short walk to water, trash, and bathrooms (not all in the same location)."
"This is a private, tribal run campground about half way up the eastern shore of Flathead Lake."
"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."
"Right next to beautiful golf course in Polson MT. All the hookups. Pool, hot tub, pickle ball courts."
"Impeccable grounds, enjoyed my neighbors, so convenient to everything in Polson, and hope to return soon."
$63 - $68 / night

"I absolutely love Montana the yellow Bay Area keeps me coming back I live in beautiful Idaho however Montana just has something different to offer and I I'm always looking for excuses to go back to Montana"
"Be prepared for a colder night because of your proximity to the water. The only negative thing about this campsite were the masses of mosquitoes and other bugs."
"Lovely little campsite next to the water. A little buggy but not too bad. Campsites we’re clean, had a fire pit and nice flat tent area, pit toilet on site too which was a nice surprise."
$79 - $300 / night
"Nice view, nice people and about 1.5 hours from Glacier west entrance. We unhooked, drove through west entrance then through park and then back on highway 2."

"My family and I recently stayed at Rollings RV Park on Flathead Lake in Montana, and we loved it!"
"Our first time to Flathead lake. Spots were booking up quick around the lake. Found this gem, got a spot reserved for Labor Day weekend. The park is very clean and well maintained."
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!
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.
ScoutThe have lots of campsites, group sites, small cabins, and big cabins! We rented a big cabin for the 6 of us!
They have restrooms with hot showers! There were lots hiking trails and ATV riding trails!
The views looking at the Rocky Mountains were breath taking! There was a community area where we could hang out and have a bonfire!
And the price was so reasonable!
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.
Guide3 wonderful campsites. Each with a fire ring. There is a Vault toilet and bear box for food storage. Pack out your trash and bring your own water. Lots of bugs and tree roots. Fit our Class C 30' motorhome in site 1 perfectly. Not lots of other people. Locals fish here and had no issues walking through our campsite. Fishing is great, right out your door is the river! The water is cold and fast in May.
RangerThe access road was very small and difficult to find near a corner of the highway. Once we found it it was small and had limited with due to Big trees. It's fairly steep down to the river. Once we reach the bottom we drove through some nicely spaced campsites with picnic tables and fire grates. There's also a concrete vaulted pit toilet. Don't be put off by the spray paint that signs cuz if you continue down to the lake there's some beautiful dispersed camping right beside the lake. It's very peaceful with lots. Lots of birds chirping on adjacent to the vaulted toy that you can hear a waterfall which has a trail access according to a local camper there is a little highway noise across the lake about the beautiful site makes up for it. Adjacent to the lake we counted between 5:00 and 10:00 firings. Many of them have started to become overgrown from lack of youths. If you go far enough, it's a little swampy next to the lake. Previous vehicles have got stuck and kind of destroyed the landscape..
