Best Campgrounds near Whitefish, MT

Beautiful spot. Road here isn’t too bad, except might be a bit risky after rain if you don’t have 4x4.

the employees are all amazing, the course is beautiful, and is in great proximity to the national park

Picnic table and fire pit at most sites. Firewood available for sale. *No tent policy. Showers, restrooms, laundry available, and cleaned daily. On site hosts are friendly and helpful. Mcgregor lake lodge and restaurant across the street. There is a nice well maintained walking path that goes around the park. The exit road to the highway also goes behind the park to little Mcgregor lake. Pictures on the website

The Bad? By the time you see this the onsite manager will have quit because of the owner. The manager was awesome but isn’t allowed to enforce policy or contact law enforcement. During my stay, and other said has happened many times, there were “visitors” parking in other sites of in the middle of the road, loud drunks, even s family that left a kid to young to speak outside after yelling at him. Unfortunately the manager can only say what will happen but can’t make it happen and the bad guests figure that out fast. Only because so many of us complained and decided we would contact the sheriff’s office did anything happen. So this is why it’s not 5 star.

Also, if you are not white or obviously white do not go to the restaurant across the street. They do not care and this is deep in Montana, just sayin

Details: Large bathrooms, cleaned daily Laundry available for a flat rate Most sites are flat Nice lawns and walking trails Room at most sites for very large RVs Long drive to Kalispell but an easy hwy drive Plenty of local lakes to fish Head to marion and eat at the bar and grill

Nice open spots past the intersection but are typically full of trailers left on site for when locals want to come by. Rules not enforced and no one to complain to.

Large, wide open, not many on the river. The best spot on the river: drive in, go past the main sign to the right, turn left on the intersection where the chain link fence is, as soon as the road widens pull up on to the right and you’re there. Big rig friendly. Be aware of quicksand that is advertised to be in the area and bears fishing in the fall. Be advised, the one pit toilet at this point is almost full and filthy, it has not been cleaned in months or years.

Details: Don’t leave kids unattended High grizzly population in the fall Kokanee in the river, check reports Sandy and quick sand areas Quiet, mostly abandon RVs to keep sites on hold No water, toilet, trash Town is 5 minutes away Free, time limit seems to fluctuate but it’s clearly not enforced

This campground was nice and clean but VERY busy. Not an issue as it was 4th of July weekend but if you want a more quiet and spread out situation, I wouldn't recommend staying here. No real issue just not my style!

The road in was narrow. Glad I didn’t have any problems with on coming riggs

We picked this park for convenience while having travel trailer brake issues. Came at close of season, and thankful for a later evening check in. A little disconnect to obtain a bathroom Code. Fortunately we saw camp hosts walking dogs to gain access. Dog friendly, including nice gated area for off leash.

Less than five miles from the highway, this is a nice sized lake stocked with fish. There were a pair of white swans on the lake when I was there but no one else around. A large parking area, could accommodate a travel trailer or two in addition to a couple tent sites with fire rings. One picnic table with a fire pit and rock fire rings at the tent sites. There are two access roads, the first is more appropriate for van, truck or hike in to tent site. Not a lot of turn around room, wouldn't bring a trailer in. Second turn off goes to a much larger area, multiple sites and boat launch access to the lake.

Just about a mile from the highway, this site is right on the river with some nice deep pools. There are three separate fire rings with a vault toilet and picnic table. It's a short drive in but more suitable for truck camping, van, tent camping or very small trailer like 13' max due to narrow track and limited maneuvering area. High clearance required!
