The space of the lots were so nice.
mystika j.

I wish all KOA sights were this amazing. Best KOA by far. It has clean sites that had space between and each site was private. You weren't lacked in like Sardines. They had a great adult pool. The kids pool was spacious but wish it was a little cleaner. The adult pool was immaculate. Ice Cream , bear stream and music. But really the best thing was the space and cleanliness of the site with epic views.

You get what you pay for as this place is pricy but do it at least once. Entertainment every night, loved the adult pool and beautiful landscaping. We loved spot #5

Food is good. Very nice wait staff. This deserves to be called a resort. Adult swimming pool and kids swimming pool. Live music ever evening at 7pm. Justin the bartender, in the Airstream Bar, is great. Grounds are meticulous. WiFi is exceptional. I have never seen WiFi even close to this, at any of the RV Parks that I have stayed. It is usually horrible. I would estimate they have $50,000 in professional WiFi networking gear showing. Site 181 is right under one of their many WiFi towers. Verizon Cellular is only 2 bars but you do need it when the WiFi is this good and you can switch your phone to WiFi.

This place is absolutely incredible! My wife and I have visited over 50+ campsites, mainly travel trailer and RV campgrounds and this is by far the best! All the kids activities, delicious steak restaurant and an amazing breakfast in a patio with tons of flowers! This is the most well manicured landscaping I've ever seen. Kudos to the groundskeepers and maintenance crew! They're truly amazing! They have a separate ice cream shop log cabin, large family pool, adults only pool with 2 hot tubs and new sauna cabins! Not to mention each site is perfect and tons of games and activities everyday. They have live avian bird shows, live music, food trucks, and a resort style seating area for listening to music and visiting the air stream camper/liquor bar on site! This is the best place to stay and we come every year! Not to mention they have log cabins for rent too!

This place is incredible on all counts!! It's so fancy... I'm not sure how they break even. Gorgeous grounds with professional landscaping, amazing playground, beautiful bathrooms, etc. It truly is a resort.

Thanks to the West Glacier KOA staff who are ready for a great summer season in 2023. Enjoyed an ice cream and the super clean showers and bathrooms. Able to rent eBikes on-site! Only 5 minute drive from Glacier National Park.

Not all KOA campgrounds/parks are created equally. Some are rural and secluded. Others are close to the city. Some are rustic and homey, others are modern. Whatever case, clearly, West Glacier KOA is a cut above the rest. + The surrounding scenery is incredible. + The grounds are immaculate: manicured lawns, decorative flowers, etc. + The amenities are numerous: clean bathrooms, clean showers, full hook up site available, family pool (with a large deck and ample reclining seats, shaded tables, etc.), adult only pool, adult only hot tubs, gift shop, ice cream shop, restaurant, playground, laundry, etc. Bonus: if you buy a frozen (Digiorno) pizza from the gift shop, they'll cook it for you ($6.99)!!! + The staff was very friendly (as is the case in most KOAs we've been to). Well worth the money. Highly recommended!

Wow - beautiful location! All the amenities you could ask for except for horrible WiFi which is the only reason for less than 5 stars. Otherwise, beautiful, clean, and anything you need including close proximity to Glacier National Park west entrance.

While this is an edited review. I had an issue while staying at the park. I will say managers where quick to respond first thing in the morning as soon as they got in. They both handled situation excellently. As I previously stated the showers and restrooms at this Koa are amazing spotless clean, food at the restaurant excellent although could use a few more kids choices. Overall this is an excellent campground that will not disappoint!!! Views are amazing Ice cream was fabulous and again tons of activities to do for everyone. Do not hesitate to stay here. Management team is excellent!

Ask the Community - West Glacier KOA

Is the camp store and canteen open in September?

The campground is fully open Mai to October 18

If we're looking for a big spot with a little nature, would you recommend the Deluxe Patio site or the back in full hookup/ tent sites?

We stayed in Cabin 5 in the back corner of the campground. There was an electric fence between us and the forest on the other side of the fence. The map is a great representation of the campground and the size of the camping spots. I don't think…

Let me start off with the good: Obviously, 5 stars for the…read morelocation. Easy access to many epic trailheads. A moose and her baby were in our campground three times during our seven night stay. How cool is that!?! Now, the not so good: 1.) You'll have to be at your computer right when reservations open frantically pushing the *book now* button and praying it ends up in your cart. Otherwise, you'll be checking recreation.gov every spare second you get and hope you time it right and snag a cancellation. 2.) Major road construction to get to MG, so expect delays. A lot of the road is still gravel/unpaved/potholes so you'll have to go slow! Especially if you're towing a trailer or have a RV. 3.) It's bear country! The rangers patrol like crazy and will cite you! Every time you leave your campground, you need to pack up anything that can attract bears (camp stoves, coolers, water bottles, tablecloths). So at least twice a day, we packed up almost everything. Kind of annoying, but understandable. 4.) Designated generator hours three times a day, in the middle of the day. The sites range from shady to sunny to semi-shady. Our site (110) was semi-shady, so we had to sit around in the middle of the day to make sure that our refrigerator had enough power so our food wouldn't spoil during the heatwave. That obviously limited us on our daily activities. 5. ) Over our seven night stay, my friends were able to piecemeal three separate reservations at three different campsites. At check-in, the ranger said the only way we could potentially check cancellations and extend the stay at a site was by going on recreation.gov. Not helpful at all considering there is ZERO cell service for any of the carriers there. (Other camp hosts at other NPs check their printout list, no problem.) 6.) Lastly, it was really sad to see that a lot of reserved sites were no-shows. Given how difficult it is to secure a spot, this was so not cool. Some other miscellaneous items: 1.) Vicious bugs everywhere! We had two Thermacells, citronella wristbands and doused ourselves liberally with bug spray and still managed to get eaten alive. Yes, I know this is the great outdoors. 2.) For 2021: Reservations for MG campground do not admit you to the going to the sun road! This was very unclear! Our neighbors told us the park changed this last minute, as we also were under the impression that we had access via our reservation. Because we didn't have internet access to even get a shot at reserving last minute tickets, we had to wake up at 4am to get through the gate before 6am. Needless to say, we could only swing this one day, which was a huge bummer because a lot of the trails and lakes I was planning on checking out are located in GTSR. We have visited and camped at over 20 national parks and this was the poorest run one by far.

Stayed here for a few nights and really loved the space between sights as well as closeness to…read moretrails and eateries.

There was something incredible around every corner: Wildlife: We were lucky enough to see grizzly bears, black bears, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, birds, and so much more. Seeing these animals in their natural habitat was truly special. Glaciers & mountain views: Ancient glaciers surrounded by towering peaks, dramatic landscapes, and endless mountain views it honestly felt unreal. Turquoise lakes: The crystal-clear, turquoise waters looked almost too perfect to be real. Every lake felt like a postcard. Boat rides: A peaceful way to take in the beauty of the park, surrounded by glacier-fed waters and stunning mountain scenery. Hiking: Every trail we explored was worth it! Avalanche Lake, Hidden Lake, Running Eagle Falls, and more each one offered something completely different and beautiful. Wildflowers: Colorful wildflowers and bear grass were everywhere, adding even more beauty to an already incredible landscape. Huckleberry ice cream: And of course, you can't visit Glacier without trying huckleberry ice cream! Such a fun and delicious Glacier tradition. From the wildlife and glaciers to the turquoise lakes, scenic drives, hikes, and peaceful boat rides, Glacier National Park truly has it all. We left with so many beautiful memories and a camera roll full of pictures we'll be looking at for a long time. Absolutely unforgettable and 100% worth the trip!

It was a bit on the expensive side - however it was pretty similar to other accommodations in the area in price range and waaaaay nicer. All of the staff was super helpful & nice! We were surprised by the amount of activities they had each day and it was fun to be a part of them. The one thing I'll say is we weren't made aware their road up to the tents was one way, we didn't see any signs either, and when we were driving down to check out one of the employees stopped us & told us, whoops! We loved this place, we'd love to be back with our son and will definitely check out other Under Canvas locations.

The barbecue area, located on the right side of the entrance, was a highlight. It has a covered spot with seating, a few fire pits where we roasted marshmallows (they even offer small s'mores packets), and a cozy setup for gatherings. There's also a small restaurant with a limited menu, which is a nice option, plus they serve ice cream. However, the tents themselves left a lot to be desired. Most don't have bathrooms, and I had to use the community restroom. While it was reasonably clean and cute, it's still a communal space. The tents are quite small with very little privacy--you can hear people walking by very clearly, and it doesn't feel like real camping or even glamping. What really shocked me was the price. My in-laws stayed in a tent with a bathroom, and it cost around $800 per night, which is absolutely ridiculous. For that price, I'd expect a luxurious hotel, not a cramped tent with limited amenities. If you prioritize comfort like I do, I honestly wouldn't recommend this place. It's far too expensive for what's offered, and I don't think it's worth the cost. It's a nice spot for a barbecue or a day outing, but not for an overnight stay.
