These campsites are located off of the highway between Whitefish and Kalispell. It is a beautiful little ranch with horses, chickens and wild turkeys! The tent sites are close enough to the highway where you can hear some traffic, but it usually quiets down in the evening. We are 5 minutes from Whitefish/Big Mountain, 15 minutes from Glacier National Airport, about 45 to Glacier National Park, and about 30 minutes to Flathead Lake. Plenty of things to see and do nearby!
