I searched the forum and done a bit of googling and not finding much in the way of RV Parks on the East side of Glacier with full hookups. Does anyone know of a place they'd recommend? If not full hookups, any that you've stayed in that have electric, water and a dump station on site?

There's plenty to choose from on the West side - I've even reserved a spot, but would prefer the east side if possible.

Our trip is near the end of August if it matters.

Thanks in advance!

When we were at Glacier in 2019, we stayed at the East Glacier KOA in St. Mary. We had a FHU Back in site. Suited us just fine, beautiful views around us and perfect access to the East side of Glacier.

Try this site. Just zoom in on the East Glacier area and see what's available.

X2 on East Glacier KOA.

Thanks for the quick responses.

I should have mentioned that I looked at KOA East and that they didn’t have availability for when I needed…although I’m checking periodically in case anything changes.

Thx Lt Dan for the link to the rv site search. I’ll give it a try!

Can you dry camp in the park's campground? You'll have more choices on the West side. Good luck!

We stayed at Glacier Meadow RV in Essex,MT. They offer honey wagon service which worked out fine for us. It’s a small, quiet, neat campground. We stayed there two times.

Spent 3 weeks a few years back at Johnsons Campground in East Glacier. It is definitely a campground; not an RV Park but with full hookups. Sites are terraced on a hill with St Mary and Lesser St. Mary Lake below and off in the distance. Johnsons did take reservations. Had a restaurant on site with fantastic fried chicken.

Very hard to get in, but we loved Two Medicine Campground, GNP, in East Glacier. At the time we were there, it was first come, first served.

There aren't a lot to choose from, unless you can snag a spot in GNP, so make your plans and/or reservations really early. Happy traveling.
