    North American RV Park & Yurt Village

    Great location, convenient, clean and friendly!

    We stayed here for 4 nights. Only 5 minutes away from West Glacier Park entrance. Close by is a zip line attraction with a blow up slide in water for the little ones and bounce house obstacle with a slide. Also an adventure park that has go karts, bumper cars, lazy river etc. Great location with so much to do outside the park. We had a corner spot which I really liked for some privacy. Each site has its own fire pit which was nice. Wi-Fi in my opinion worked great. Has a dog park and a little playground for kids. Laundry room and bath houses were very clean. Also has an arcade and loved how they use honesty policy during closed hours where you can pick up firewood or ice and pay the next morning:) I definitely recommend and will come back for another Montana adventure.

    Glacier Campground

    Perfect for Glacier

    This was a cozy campground with AMAZING staff. Spots are a bit small wouldn’t recommend larger than a 30ft trailer. Water and electric (30amp only). Because wall the spots are nestled in the trees you definitely feel like you’ve got you’re personal space. Nice clean showers and laundry. They even have a cute cafe that is open for breakfast and dinner. A hidden gem! Less than a mile from West Glacier entrance. Currently reservations are only by phone but the owner said they were going to online soon. Would stay here anytime we visited Glacier.

    Lake Five Resort

    Enjoy Glacier National Park or just relax at the lake

    We stayed in a cabin at Lake Five 28 years ago so when planning this trip, we decided to stay again particularly since it put us as close to the campground in Glacier NP that we hoped to snag a site at. The cabins are essentially the same but now there are electric hookups for the RVs and a live entertainment stage (we were there on a Monday so did not see any entertainment). The other thing that is different is that there are fewer mosquitoes (I remember they used to be vicious) due to bats (although I did not see any). Located right on a lake just a few miles from the west entrance to the park, there are accommodations to fit everyone’s needs. Cabins, some with bathrooms, some with kitchens, RV sites, and tipis. In my opinion, Cabins 1 and 2 are the best with full lake views but these are larger cabins and better suited for families. We stayed in Cabin 8 this time, with a bathroom but no kitchen. We had a picnic table and fire ring so enjoyed our dinner outside. The cabins are rustic (think summer camp) but clean. They have very limited outlets! One in the main room, used for the fridge and fan, and one in the bathroom, so don’t plan on charging your devices after being in the woods camping! Make sure you bring towels– while there are sheets on the bed, there are no bath towels. Cabins are a bit pricey but that is to be expected in a prime location. The RV sites are close together; the sites on the outside of the loop are more private with trees behind them. Sites 1-8 have NO privacy or separation between them and while lakefront, the view is filtered through the trees. Other amenities include a utility sink, showers (for campers only) and reasonably priced laundry, although with only one washer and dryer, there was a big back-up! This is a great place from which to explore Glacier National Park or just relax by the lake. Lots of families swimming and boating and hanging out. The office is open from 9am-9pm. Owner Ron has a dry sense of humor and is very welcoming, along with his two very large dogs. The resort is open spring through fall, with discounts in the spring and fall. Check is the preferred payment when making a reservation and you will receive a confirmation as soon as the check is received. Note if you are using Google Maps: if you are approaching from the west, Belton Stage Road is gravel (about 1.5 miles) but there is another paved entrance from the east.

    West Glacier KOA Resort

    Beauty, nestled against the mountains

    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. 

    Lots of sites to choose from. Ours was a pull thru with nice vegetation between. Fire pit with benches and picnic table. Some sites are close together with no privacy. Some have gas grills and patio furniture. There are cabins and tent sites as well. Bathhouse was average. The cafe was open for breakfast and dinner.Ice cream shop closed for the season. Amazing pool! Nice play area, dog parks. Really nice camp store, firewood available. KOA Workshop on site. RV wash and dog grooming by appointment.

    West Glacier KOA Resort

    Only 4 star because they over-booked and because it is a KOA playground....

    So, its a KOA which is awesome for some and not for others. I have only been to a handful but they are way too managed and the stereotypical "glamping" situation. Reason we booked was because we were headed from a nearby camp on Flathead lake and wanted to get closer to Glacier before walking in for a permit. This KOA is less than 20 minutes from the Apgar permit office... We booked a primitive cabin online before the trip, and then the night of our arrival, about 1 hour till their general store/office closed, we got a phone call saying that they made a mistake and they over booked. How did they handle it? They put us up in one of their luxury full cabins! Now, that is not the experience we were looking for, but for us this was merely a one nighter to get to Glacier. So we accepted. Campfire ring, picnic table, private parking, and our own little cabin complete with flat screen tv and surround speakers in the ceiling. 2 other bedrooms one with bunks that went unused, a kitchen with coffee maker and mini fridge, and a bathroom with toilet, sink, and shower... While not the experience we were looking for it sure made it easier to pack up and get into glacier for that walk in permit. Although there was some mistake with their booking they owned it and gave us what would be considered a huge upgrade, and we made it to the permit office early without needing to worry about deflating our sleeping pads. Thank you West Glacier KOA!

    West Glacier KOA Resort

    An awesome surprise

    One of the nicest KOA's we have been in. Lush landscaping. Lots of common area. Pool, seperate hit tub area away from the pool (aka grownup space). Laundry, propane, coffee and ice cream shop. Really nice and accommodating staff. A good selection of different size and amenities sites. Well maintained and clean. A camp store. Ice and firewood for sale.. Best of all, right at the West Glacier entrance.

    We came in last minute, in AUGUST, looking for not just one but 2 sites. They looked and juggled until they could come up with something.

    Fire fighters were stages next door which was very interesting.

    West Glacier RV & Cabin Resort

    Nice Campground!

    Very nice campground with easy access to Glacier. Be wary of electric hookup, we were all set up and couldn't close out hatches due to large solar top on electric pole. Also, local gas is very expensive..head towards Kalispan a few miles from West Glacier and save over $2 a gallon.

    Glacier Campground

    Great Location to the Park

    Glacier Campground is just a few miles outside of the west entrance of Glacier National Park. The campground is clean, and the hosts are friendly. We stayed in a cabin that had one twin bunk bed and on twin over queen bunk bed. It also had a mini fridge and microwave. You need to bring your own bedding, but the cabins are new and really cute. Worked perfect for us.


Guide to West Glacier

Camping cabins near West Glacier, Montana provide convenient access to Glacier National Park while offering more comfort than tent camping. At elevations ranging from 3,200 to 3,500 feet, the area experiences warm summer days and cool evenings, with typical July temperatures ranging from 45°F at night to 80°F during the day. Most cabin facilities in the area operate seasonally from mid-May through September.

What to do

Fishing at Lake Five: Lake Five Resort offers access to a clear mountain lake just minutes from Glacier National Park. "You can rent their kayaks and paddle boards or bring your own. They have ice and firewood available other than that stock up on supplies. The nearest regular grocery is 35 minutes away in Whitefish," notes a visitor at Lake Five Resort.

Attend live events: Evening entertainment is available at select campgrounds. "To have live music available each night in a very open inviting area that looks out at the mountains is pretty amazing," reports one camper at West Glacier KOA Resort. Another visitor mentions, "There is a brewery and restaurant close by. The Gunsight restaurant in downtown Columbia Falls is a must, especially on Taco Tues."

Pick wild berries: Some campgrounds feature native berry bushes for seasonal picking. "He has juneberries on property and let me pick them. They were everywhere. Got a couple of good breakfast smoothies and a lot of local spots with Huckleberry items," shares a visitor about Sundance Campground.

What campers like

Private wooded sites: Many visitors appreciate the natural setting of cabin areas. "We had a separate fire pit area, with kind of a split level effect," notes one camper at Glacier Campground. Another visitor describes Mountain Meadow: "We lucked out with site #50 though, it was very secluded and the picnic firepit area was like our own little cubby in the woods."

Stargazing opportunities: Clear mountain skies offer excellent night viewing. "Incredible night sky. Only other place I've seen so many stars/the Milky Way was Death Valley," shares a visitor about Glacier Campground.

Off-grid relaxation: Several cabin properties offer a true retreat experience. "You're gonna pay for it, but if you're gonna stay in the area and you want to splurge on your stay this would be the place. My wife really enjoyed the fact that it had an electric fence around the perimeter to try and preclude wildlife from entering the park area," explains a guest at West Glacier KOA Resort.

What you should know

Reservation timing: Securing cabin accommodations requires advance planning. "This is both a campsite review and a Dyrt Ranger product review. We almost cancelled our trip to Glacier due to the current forest fires that have closed some of the park. We decided to take a chance on it though, and stayed just outside the west entrance of the park," explains a visitor at Glacier Campground.

Seasonal limitations: Most facilities close during winter. "We were only there to sleep. Got in, set up, went to sleep, packed up at 5am and headed out to Glacier. It would be a fine base for GNP activities," shares a camper at Sundance Campground.

Noise considerations: Some cabins experience road or rail noise. "The highway at night can be fairly noisy, but you're about 5 minutes from the entrance to the park... highly worth it. If you can't find a place inside the park, I would highly recommend them," notes a guest at Moose Creek RV Resort and Bed & Breakfast.

Tips for camping with families

Look for recreation options: Some facilities offer activities specifically for children. "They do have many great things though: an excellent distance from Glacier and Kalispell, a dog park, and great spots to stay at (depending on where your cabin/spot is located)," reports a visitor about West Glacier KOA.

Consider cabin layouts: Family configurations vary between properties. "Group sites: you must have at least 10 people to stay here. Booked for a family reunion, was a nice layout. Site is wooded and shady. Facilities modern but still basic," explains a camper at Apgar Group Sites.

Check shower facilities: Bathroom amenities vary widely between properties. "Campsite was very clean and well kept. Nice gravel and grass area with picnic table. Bathrooms were amazing! 2 large stalls and 3 large showers, 1 was handicap. Very clean, nice tile and spacious," notes a visitor at Columbia Falls RV Park.

Tips from RVers

Site selection matters: Choose cabin or RV sites based on your specific needs. "The sites are level, but just barely. Although the trees are nice, they are so close to the parking area that we were unable to extend our awning," advises an RVer about Sundance Campground.

Check hookup locations: Utility positioning varies between properties. "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," explains a visitor at West Glacier RV & Cabin Resort.

Consider sites with extra amenities: Some properties offer enhanced features. "LOVED our stay here. We got a prized corner spot with privacy of trees. So nice to have a grassy site, too. Super close to West Glacier, East Glacier is much more of a drive, but we knew that," shares a camper at North American RV Park & Yurt Village.
