This camp spot is a dream come true for a family visiting Glacier. They have a family pool and an adults only pool in a separate enclosed. They have many different options as far as tent sites, hookup sites, camping cabins, luxury cabins, etc etc. Very cute ice cream shop and a wonderful little cafe that has dinners and espressos and coffee in the morning.
One of my favorite things about this KOA is they have a beautiful and private tent camping area away from all the RV people. Also the bbq at the little restaurant is amazing and I think it’s the owner out there on a grill and he’s a lovely talkative dude who wants to ensure everyone is enjoying themselves. The facilities are all well maintained and lovely. Can’t speak highly enough about this place.
RangerWe have loved camping here, we have returned multiple times! The tent sites are generous in most spaces, just specify your needs when you reserve. There is an adult pool, family pool and hot tubs! There is a camp store and the bathrooms are always nice and clean. Plus the KOA is just 10 minutes from the West Glacier entrance!
GuideThis KOA is pretty nice. They have a 2 pools (which, though heated, is super cold), a hot tub (but it’s adult only, so if you have kids that cannot be alone, it’s a no go), and a nature trail (which is not very naturey and is super short [but glacier is not far away]). 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). I would definitely recommend coming here if you need somewhere to stay or get away!
Traveler
Really enjoyed our stay. Minutes away from West Glacier entrance. Lots to do and see.
Traveler
We stayed in a camping cabin on our road trip and wished we had more than our 4 nights. The views are incredible, the pool and splash area were great, the store is huge with tons of gear and basics and we felt we were on the best side of the park. It's even close enough to pop into Canada and go to Waterton for a day.
Guide
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.
TravelerTypical KOA, with tightly packed RVs. Nice amenities pool, hot tub, restaurant, playground.
TravelerWe were in a large group and had a group site but it wasn’t the biggest. It was still very fun. The pool was nice and the hot tub felt amazing.
RangerLoved this campground. Great amenities. Loved the pool/hot tub. Nice big site with electric/water. Tent camped and the bathrooms clean and close by. Amazing store and they even delivered pizza right to our site. Pancake breakfast was wonderful.
Ranger
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.
LegendGreat amenities onsite. The staff was incredibly friendly and kind. The bathhouse near us was a dated design style but very clean and well stocked. Lots of families with kids onsite, I can see why with all the great amenities. During off season kids are allowed to swim in adult pool and hot tubs. Great spacious off leash dog park onsite. A second smaller K9 park onsite was still nicely maintained. It’s snug, so unless you pay for more spacious sites expect to be close to neighbors. Some of the cabin renters were loud with radios blaring but they were on the opposite side of the park so we didn’t report the noise. Plenty of supplies available at store. Some of the sites had lovely views of the mountains. The nature trail at the KOA was very muddy and some sections had such large mud holes that you couldn’t avoid getting your shoes wet. They should put some gravel or something back there. Just be prepared to get your shoes dirty if you walk it. Despite the muddiness, we found it was a lovely nightly loop to walk.
If you plan to drive going to the sun road: make sure it’s open. And be sure and get a reservation/register your vehicle for Glacier/going-to the-sun road if visiting summer 2022. Go eat at Dan d Lion cafe for a crazy savory meal. You won’t believe it’s vegan and gluten free. Insanely good. Great prices in Hungry Horse for souvenirs. West Glacier was definitely the better stay than East Glacier in our opinion. Much more easy access to stores, restaurants, etc. Whitefish MT had the coolest off leash dog park we’ve ever seen! If you have your 4-legged-bff with you - you simply must take your pup to that park (you’re welcome!) Lake McDonald is a great place to see the mountains and take beautiful pictures. You need bear spray if you go hiking anywhere here. Also, no dogs on trails, of course.
GuideWe 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!
ScoutNice bathrooms, hot showers, hot tub was good and hot, the pool was frigid. Food and ice cream at the campground was tasty. Sites are a decent size — we were able to get our REI Kingdom 8 with garage on our site, park our car, and still had room to move around just fine. WiFi is mostly unusable from any of the campsites.
TravelerWe stayed at campsite G17. It was right near the entrance, so there was a lot of traffic. In the morning a fox came right up to our site. The pool was great with a hot tub and splash pad. The views were gorgeous and our kids loved the playground. We even ordered pizza and had it delivered from the main office. A little pricey, but great place!
GuideWe 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.
Guideeasy to find. nice views. nice showers with hot water. pull throughs were level and nice and long. Came with picnic table and fire pit. Guests were quite and had great camp ground etiquette. Had a nice big dog run. the Store was great with food, souvenirs, and ice cream!
It is expensive but was 6 mins from east gate glacier. Had great Glacier views. Lots of dumpsters around for easy access. close to gas and shops. nice big hot tub and pool.
We enjoyed ourselves here.
RangerWe have a large group of 24 in 1 group site and we had plenty of space. They charged per person which came as a great surprise. They have a pool a hot tub and a park. They have a store with ice and wood for sale. It is plenty close to the park. The bathrooms near the pool are what you would expect at a pool. There are some nice bathrooms right next to the store. These are cleaned an hour a day. The rv sites are extremely close together. The fire pits are small for the rvs but very nice for the campers. I have no complaints about the people around including employees. We did have a skunk visit us in the night. Just don’t plan on spending much time at camp instead of on the trails. Did
GuideLook, it is a KOA. Some people like them, some do not. We generally avoid them and prefer more rustic camping. However, we decided to stay here to avoid some of the bear restrictions within Glacier, and for something different.
This park is very nice, but I would never call it rustic. We stayed in an electric and water only site which was tucked in some trees. Other sites were very landscaped, like a backyard. In fact, those have patios with awnings and BBQs provided. Our site was a bit small, with our neighbors close to our outdoor area. There were several tent only sites which looked fantastic and were back within the trees.
The staff is very friendly and everything was very clean. It was nice having a small outdoor restaurant, but it’s selection was very limited (4 meat choices, 2 sides with your meat). The ice cream shop was probably the biggest hit. There are also two pools, one adult and one family, and also two adult only hot tubs. When we stayed there it was in the mid-90s, so the pools were a life saver.

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.
ScoutThe staff are very friendly and helpful with hiking trails throughout West Glacier. The tent sites and even cabins are well spaced from neighbors, eco-friendly and kept very clean. The noise level is also minimal and no one is disturbed by RVs or restroom noises.
GuideSo, 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!
GuideFantastic resort next door to a west Glacier entry.
RangerIn the end of July, over 200 of our group (Sisters on the Fly)…totally invaded this campground. Over 200 us occupied all of the 175 camp spots (plus a few doubled up in the pull throughs)
They were BEYOND accommodating!
The campground is extremely well set up. There is a wonderful little cafe (Sunflower), that bent over backwards cooking for us. There’s a little general store for all the little things you might need (including ice!)…a dump, dish washing station (so bears are less liking to check out YOUR camp).
WIFI is so so…but then again, I don’t camp to hang out on the internet.
The campground is steep as you walk the roads from the pavilion to your spot…you will leave in MUCH better shape than when you arrived.
Not all spots are as level as you would like them to be…they will work with you…just ask. Bring plenty of extra leveling blocks. Some of the spots require skill with backing to get in. They have group cabins and several shower houses.
All and all…I was EXTREMELY impressed! I would stay there every time I go. It’s located just outside West Glacier and the unassuming entrance totally belies the greatness that lies beyond!
You won’t regret your stay!
TravelerVery clean and well groomed campsites. Very close to West Glacier. Not cheap but worth it for the close proximity to everything.
TravelerVery nice , modern grounds, staff was friendly, full hook-ups with great fenced-in doggie area. Location was perfect, minutes from Glacier NP entrance and walking distance to West Glacier Village.
Scout
Great facilities and friendly staff. About 20 mins outside of West Glacier. Mostly RV hook ups, but it does have 3 tent spots. Only drawback is it is noisy, since it is in the city.
Ranger
This 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
