With amazing views of the Rocky Mountains, this west facing spot allows for some beautiful sunsets. Sightings of deer and moose are very typical along with many birds including hawks, eagles and even a chance to see some sand hill cranes.  Just up the hill is the Pine Ridge lookout which provide views towards Waterton Park and the legendary Chief Mountain. Learn more about this land: This camping spot has amazing mountain views about 15 minutes from Waterton Lakes National Park.   The prairies of Alberta meet the peaks of the Rocky Mountains in Waterton Lakes National Park. Clear lakes, thundering waterfalls, rainbow-coloured streams, colourful rocks and mountain vistas await hikers and sightseers. With an exceptional diversity of wildlife and wildflowers and a cozy little waterfront town to serve as a home base, Waterton packs a big natural punch into a relatively small and accessible area. Currently, this is a simple, basic spot to camp and enjoy the views. There are plenty of opportunities to spot wildlife (moose, deer, birds).  No amenities as of now, but we are looking to add more soon.  Due to fire restrictions currently in place, only propane-type devices can be used at this time.

It was so nice and peaceful, super quiet aside from the cows and the odd wild animals off in the distance. It was my first time camping ever and it was so much fun, the views were incredible and the property is beautiful and well kept. It was hot and sunny during the daytime and got pretty chilly overnight but with the blankets and sleeping bags we had it wasn’t cold at all. Thank you so much Scott! We would definitely come back to enjoy this spot again. :)

We enjoyed our stay at Scott's land! The area is a mowed section next to pastures (currently with cows heading) looking out toward the mountains. Nothing fancy but quiet, private, and a short drive to Waterton! We would definitely stay again if in the area.

What a beautiful place to camp. We enjoyed the views and serene atmosphere. The deer came by to visit us which was a bonus. The host is so lovely and went above and beyond to accommodate us. I would definitely come back and stay here again. Thanks for sharing your beautiful land with us Scott and Wilma!

It's a beautiful piece of property with tremendous views of the mountains and surrounding area. And absolutely quiet-- no highway noises, no aircraft overhead. Just a few cattle heard after dark and some birds. Great sunrise.

It was a very disappointing experience to be at Moutain View considering the price. There was absolutely nothing but a patch of mowed grass and a dilapidated set of tables and benches. Don't understand that HipCamp would put its name to such a place.

Great spot with very easy access, beautiful view, very close to Waterton Park, quiet, nicely kept, perfect for our dirtbag car camp needs but also would be nice for longer set-ups or larger rigs. We absolutely will be back whenever in the area.

Scott’s camping area was great. Certainly would recommend staying here. It is in close proximity to Waterton NP, but secluded enough from the crowds to spend a relaxing night with some beautiful views. We hope we make it back here some day

We booked this site for one night, as a stopover on our way to Banff, and I wish we had considered staying more nights. The scenery at this spot is beautiful. We did have a thunderstorm roll through while we were there, which was exciting, but other than that the spot was very peaceful. We enjoyed watching the cows in the adjacent field. Waterton Park is nearby and definitely worth a visit.

The views are stunning and it is a nice change from busy campgrounds. It feels private but not remote and I feel safe camping here. We have been back two years in a row with our camper. There is soft ground for a tent. It is easy to explore Waterton nearby.
