Take it over

4 stars if you can get multiple sites next to each other as this isn’t a large area. You’ll most likely have very little tree cover or privacy here. The best reservoir + creek water scenes are off the most open campsites, while the couple of sites on the creek only have some trees around them. The overall feel of the space is unique in very good ways, however, and the openness could lead to some memorable reunions or annual get-togethers. The views of the creek and reservoir are straight-up lovely, making those photos ones you’ll want to keep.

Close to Glacier

We ended up at Doris Creek while searching for a campground that was close to Glacier but not in the park (since we didn't make any reservations). It's a decent campground with nice lake access. The sites seem to be catered more towards RVS and campers than tents (we pitched our tent on a patch of gravel) but the ground was level. Pit toilets are available and each campsite has a picnic table.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make reservations for Doris Creek Campground?

Doris Creek Campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis without a formal reservation system. This means you'll need to arrive early, especially during peak summer months, to secure a site. The campground is relatively small, so having a backup plan is recommended if you're arriving on weekends or holidays. For the most current reservation policies or to check for any changes to the system, contact the managing agency (likely the Forest Service or Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks).

What amenities are available at Doris Creek Campground?

Doris Creek Campground offers basic amenities suited for a rustic camping experience. The campground features sites that are more accommodating for RVs and campers than tents, though tent camping is possible. You'll have access to the lake and creek, making it ideal for water activities. The facilities are minimal, with some open sites offering great reservoir and creek views while a few sites along the creek have some tree coverage. For the most comfortable tent experience, look for the sites with trees around them for shade and a more natural setting.

Where is Doris Creek Campground located in Montana?

Doris Creek Campground is located near Hungry Horse Reservoir in northwest Montana. It's positioned within driving distance of Glacier National Park, making it a good alternative for those who couldn't secure reservations inside the park. The campground sits alongside a creek and reservoir, offering water access and scenic views. Its proximity to Glacier National Park (but outside the park boundaries) makes it a practical base for exploring the region while avoiding the higher demand for in-park accommodations.
