camping in Glacier NP

Got a 40' 5th wheel and would like to camp in Glacier NP. Anyone have and opinion which campground would work the best?
  • You can find a few spots in Apgar that are large enough for you. I don't believe any of the other campgrounds have sites large enough.

    Except for some group sites, Apgar is a first come, first served campground.

  • There are two Glacier National Parks (at least) in N. America - Montana and British Columbia. Why must we guess which one you are asking about?
  • We enjoyed our stay at St. Mary/East Glacier KOA. The deciding factor for us was that they offer a dog walking service so that we could take the all day Red Bus Tour and our puppy was walked while we were gone.

    Hi Cruiser...Don't mean to be a poop, but the other folks had no problem and you don't have to guess, just don't answer. Be nice, it's Christmas.

    X-2, when someone asks about Glacier National Park, I automatically think of Montana, but then, I'm not from Canada.
    We stayed at Two Medicine, there are a few sites that you would fit into, no hookups, and first come first served, but a beautiful CG on the East side.
  • Just trying to make a point for folks to be a bit more specific location-wise when post a geographic-based question!!
  • We stayed here a few years ago. No sewer but dump station. Secluded sites and rates were good. Had a bear sneaking around our site but he was no problem. One mile from the entrance to Glacier National Park in West Glacier

  • Check out Lake Five Resort. Just outside of the park and there are full service sites with lake access. We spend most of the summer there. A bit pricy, but we love the area and love having the lake.
