Options outside of Glacier

We were staying at Two Medicine and found this campground. We drive through to see if it would be an option to not stress about jumping through the horrific reservation process to stay at Glacier. They have 95 spots, all lot of shade but also some sunny options if you have solar panels and require recharging. Porta-potties on,y and no running water, we carry 40 gallons so big deal for us. The staff was super nice and looks really laid back with very few people there. Next time I come to Glacier staying here.

Great friendly campground!

This campground was amazing! very chill and friendly staff. Repairs on electric mentioned in previous reviews is finished! $25 for non electric sites and $45 for electric. still no water or bathrooms but clean porta potty’s provided. We stayed in our camper at a non electric site (to save $$) and they allowed us to run our generator. Yes the road there is bumpy but our camper did just fine just drive slow. Very quick drive to the park! also please visit 2medicine grill just down the road on the way there for THE BEST breakfast ever!!! there was a bear near camp one of the nights and the staff was on top of the situation, monitoring and making sure we were safe. highly recommend!

No services, but plenty of spaces

PSA: The road into the campground is rough and the bridge you have to cross is equally as rough. S.L.O.W. We rode through today looking for a place for a couple of nights. There was only 1 camper in the entire CG. There was a sign posted saying there were no services. Also, no alcohol was allowed.. There was electrical boxes and water spickets. One of the previous reviews stated they were trying to get then repaired, though. We chose to see if Two Medicine has any sites. Thankfully, we found a beautiful one on the lake.

Amazing campsites with plenty of space 15 min from Two Medicine Lake

This campground is right outside the Two Medicine entrance to Glacier National Park, just as you turn off of Highway 49 onto Two Medicine Rd. It is operated by members of the Blackfeet Tribe on their ancestral land and the hosts were friendly and welcoming. When we stayed there, all the campgrounds in the park were overflowing and there were long lines at 6:30 am for first-come sites, but this campground was basically empty. We found ourselves a lovely site next to a creek that flows into the Two Medicine Reservoir, it was quiet and peaceful and just isolated enough to feel private without feeling dangerous. The site was pretty well maintained, although there was some broken glass to be aware of. The portapotties were clean and well maintained, and while there appeared to be only one spot for water, it too was clean and tasted great. While we didn't see any wildlife while we were there, (old) bear scat was near our site. It is bear country, after all, so make sure to keep your food in your car and only burn wood in the firepits (if burning is allowed.) This was by far the best campground both in and out of the park that we found near Glacier.
