We truly enjoyed our time here. It is very quiet and secluded. No cell phone service. We were the only campers the entire time, however, there were a few day users. It looks like this is a popular horse back riding and hunting area. There are hay rings and hitching posts available. The main site (the only one with a fire ring) was entirely covered in horse poop and the other sites were overgrown with tall grass. It was a tight fit for our 30 foot travel trailer. Still, we really enjoyed the solitude and the quick(ish) access to Glacier National Park. It’s about 45 minutes to the west entrance. We also enjoyed the flathead river, which was a very short drive away. We didn’t see any moose, but there was lots of droppings to indicate they are around. Would stay again!

There are two spots suitable for tent camping and another 1-2 drive-in spots, but all very close together. 4 stars because it could potentially get crowded/loud if others were there. We were the only ones there, so it was quiet and secluded. Nice little creek nearby and very short trail lined with wildflowers.

This site is closer to the east side of GNP. It took us about an hour and 15 minutes to many glacier entrance. We were very secluded as no other RV's were there. There is a rental cabin on site but we never saw anyone coming or going. The dogs were able to enjoy the short trail nearby and going up and down the gravel road off leash. We didn't have att service, but we thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet. We received a lot of solar power in the afternoon. The spot wasn't quite level, but with some levelers it worked just fine. We would definitely camp there again if back at glacier national park.
