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!
Scout
Beginning off season, pull through site with water and electric. Uncrowded, convenient, but close to highway so a bit noisy. Bathrooms could use some heat and attention.
Guide
Reserved this deamy site right on the water. Tent 1 is closest to parking but has the most traffic going by to the other sites.
Pit toilet nearby and a quick drive to flushable toilets. Showers available with tokens from the camphost ($3 for 6 minutes) but camphost weren't around when I was looking so no personal experience here.
TravelerThis campground was very cute. The owners were so friendly and accommodating. The resident cat Poncho was a hot with our kids. The showers were small, but we're hot and free! The lawn was great with a communal fire pit and small playground. They let travelers camp there for 12 per person per night in a tent if that's what you're looking for. The cafe was cute and the drinks were delicious. We didn't eat, but it looked good! I would stay here again foe sure.
GuideAbsolutely love this campground. They were so accommodating when we booked a site our unit wouldn’t fit on they gladly moved us.
If you aren’t right on the water, you’re definitely a short distance away.
The amenities are great and the camp hosts are always friendly. Definitely worth staying here.
RangerThis 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
Scout
The host was very nice. We had a tucked away camp spot
Guide
We had a space near the dog play area which is very nice. Local employees come in the evening for talk and dog play-nice people and nice dogs. Great wifi laundry and showers. Room for big rigs. There is road noise
Guide
We 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!
Legend
Our friend's family has a campout here every year on Labor Day. The sites are large, and loop B has the most sites on the water. There is a boat launch and a dock, perfect for fishing. The bathrooms are SUPER clean and heated when it's chilly out. $18 for a Montana resident and $26 for out of staters. No cell service!!
Traveler
Lovely, quiet campground to spend the night. Large open sites along the river. Pit toilets.
RangerWe had a beautiful site with a view of the mountains. Our dog Bentley loved the spacious while we enjoyed the delicious cinnamon roles from the bakery at the General Store! 😋
The Resort is located a short 2.5 miles from the entrance of Glacier National park. So it doesn't take long to get out to you favorite hiking trail or lake for boating or swimming.
GuideWe stayed in site F16. It is close to the main lodge and the cafe.
The showers and bathrooms were very clean.
The campground is about 1 mile from the west entrance of glacier park!
Traveler
This is a campground to which I will return. David, the owner/guy in charge, is funny and kind. Debbie, the office manager, knows her stuff, is super efficient, and a kind lady. The private showers are wonderful! There are four, each with a toilet, sink, vanity and huge shower. They’re kept clean. The laundry room has three commercial washers and three dryers. There is a large table to fold. Improvements continue to be made, which is great, but it’s a super place to camp regardless!
ScoutClean bathrooms and showers. Friendly staff. The landscaping and flowers are lovely. Live music every night during peak season - so don’t stay here if you want something quiet. Beer , ice cream and restaurant on site.
GuideWe stayed in an Rv site with a tent site. It was perfect for our 3 generations of campers. The grandkids loved the pool and the Gaga ball pit. Kids loved the music each night. Grandparents liked the tie die and ice cream shop! We loved the proximity to the west gate of Glacier. The park is very well kept. We used laundry and showers.
Guide
This is one of our favorite spots to camp with our pups. The sites are nice and close to the lake and there's plenty of trees offering shade and privacy. The fire pits are great having a primitive grill. Bear proof cans are provided at each site and there is a hand pump water spigot for potable water. It's always been clean and well kept when we've visited.
Scout
Place very friendly clean showers bathroom are clean .
GuideWe really liked this campground. Sites are shady. The cafe serves a good quality and imaginative menu. Hang out at the lodge for WiFi. Staff and other campers were very nice. Only negatives were loud music from a neighboring campground and only 4 showers for each sex for a pretty large campground. Still, the showers were included in the price, so that’s nice.
Guide
Small campground surrounding a busy boat launch and beach. Lots of people having lots of fun on a July Sunday. Not really away from it all. Monday is much more peaceful. Train is a reality here. Train-side sites have more privacy. Many of the sites on the other side are right on the camp road.
GuidePerhaps the nicest KOA we have ever stayed at! Clean bathrooms, Ice cream, cafe, adult beverages. Our only complaint was that there was live music every evening and the sound bellowed across the campground.
TravelerEverything on campus was built tough, built to last: the fire pit area, the campus store, the sitting area behind the store, the planters…even the volleyball net posts had new caps fitted on them so the water wouldn’t get down in there and rust the metal. Very well maintained. AND they have propane filling ON SITE. Great place.
TravelerWe typically avoid private campgrounds. This one though was different. Amazing proximity to the west entrance of Glacier NP (but west side of Glacier NP is basically closed until July 1.) and a 1.5ish hour drive to the East gate and Two Medicine. We have a 25ft camper and the site was more than big enough. The camp sites were very well maintained but still felt like you were out in the woods camping. Good space between sites. Sites have a fire pit(only allow fires in their ring) and we did a water and electric hook up site. Dumping is free or you can pay them to come and dump your tanks on site. There is also a laundry room. We were very impressed.
Ranger
My family and I recently stayed at Rollings RV Park on Flathead Lake in Montana, and we loved it! Although it's all back-in sites for RVs and there's not a lot of room, we found that the park was beautiful and quiet, and the staff was very friendly. They have some tent sites and cabins available as well.
There's a restaurant on-site, but it has limited days and hours. The food was excellent, but it's like being in the UK, where you order everything yourself.
The park is clean, and the sites have a decent amount of space. You're close to Polson and Lakeside, where there are great beaches. The campground has its beach, but you have to drive to it.
One of the best things about the park is the great playground for kids. Our kids loved it!
The only thing we didn't love was the parking situation for guests or extra vehicles, but since it's a small place, we understand that it can be limited.
Overall, we will 100% stay at Rollings RV Park on Flathead Lake again and again. It's an awesome place, and we highly recommend it.
Legend$10 gets you an night of camping. Each site has a fire pit and picnic table. First come, first serve. In the winter, the bathrooms are closed but a port-o-john is provided. Woke up to a bunch of people ice fishing! Only 3 minutes from downtown. Away from it all while close to it all.
GuideWe stayed here for 5 days in July 2022 and it was one of the best tent camping experiences we’ve had. The river side campground that we stayed at was private and stunning! We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
I will say it was annoying to pay an additional $5 per shower, but I get it.
The hosts were amazing and incredibly friendly. But bring your bear spray, there were several bears reported by other campers the days we were there.
LegendI love Flathead Lake and this campground was wonderful. A lot of the sites are pretty tightly packed together and we lucked out by getting this RV site that was right on the lake and separate from the other campers.
We had a wall to sit on and look out at the water. Too cold for me to swim, but my brother jumped in. It was a perfect peaceful spot to hang out for 24 hours.
An eagle came and sat in a tree next to us for hours.
This is a place I will return to, for sure!
