Camp By Glacier_ Camping & Cabins

3 sites · RVs, Tents1 acre · Coram, MT

Welcome to our rustic Montana dry camp, tucked between the pines in a quiet rural neighborhood just minutes from the west entrance of Glacier National Park. Though located in a small community, each site feels woodsy—designed to give you that "off the beaten path" vibe without straying far from your route through the Flathead Valley. These dry camps are part of our quaint, locally owned cabins and camping getaway—continually crafted with care to reflect Montana’s rugged beauty and small-town charm. Our camp is simple, raw, and peaceful. It’s a pack-in, pack-out experience—there are no toilets or showers, and we ask that all guests leave no trace. Fresh water is available, but otherwise it’s a true dry camp suited for the self-contained traveler. The community firepit is available for use when Flathead County isn’t under a burn ban. There’s also a BBQ grill nearby for cooking up meals under the open sky, year-round. Our sites are best for tent campers, truck campers, overlanders, and nomads traveling light. Unfortunately, the space isn’t suitable for full-size RVs or large trailers. You might hear the nostalgic sound of trains rolling through in the distance—echoing gently across the valley, adding to the timeless mountain atmosphere. Whether you're just passing through or setting out for the wilds of Glacier, this is the perfect place to slow down, breathe deep, and soak in the Montana mountain air. To help protect local wildlife and preserve the peaceful nature of our basecamp, we kindly ask that guests not bring pets. We also ask that you help us keep the mountain air fresh—please, no smoking anywhere on the property due to high wildfire risk.

2 nights at Camp Caribou

We loved the convenience of having a quiet rv site so close to Glacier National Park. The property was easy to find and offered nice amenities like use of the cabin bathroom and kitchen.

Weekend Trip to Camp Caribou

Nice little secluded spot with access to a little lounge area with a kuerig, DVDs, TV, and covered patio. Host was communicative and polite. Only drawback was the train goes by close and it's pretty loud.

Staff was great and helpful accommodating was clean and in working order. Little nosie due the fact that it is right next to highway but we expected that. Would book again if we go back.

Beautiful land and the best view of the stars. Can finally say I’ve seen the Milky Way, and soooo clearly! Gets a bit windy out there so keep that in mind if you’re in a tent.

3 nights at Lost Paddle and Pole

Safe and simple place for me to park my van and sleep for the night. I didn’t spend much time there other than that. I was at site #1 and there wasn’t anyone next to me in site #2. Easy drive to both Whitefish and West Glacier with grocery stores close by too.

Friendly, clean and spacious campground only a few minutes from Glacier National Park!

Beautiful spot! Rolling hills, spotty forest, plenty of space to explore, what more could you ask. Two small suggestions:: use the road closing polls by the creek as a guide and include the road number, 8 as a guide. I really enjoyed my stay.

Camping on Clyde's land was refreshing in contrast to how busy West Glacier was. It was close to the East Entrance and allowed us to drive the Going to the Sun Road on our time frame and enjoy Glacier in a more relaxed and calm manner.

Amazing place to camp! Great proximity to Glacier NP! Excellent communication with host who is kind, helpful, and gracious. One of the best experiences I’ve had using HipCamp. Not to mention the views are incredible! Thank you so much Clyde!

Kevin’s property is beautiful, clean and well maintained. He’s incredibly humble considering what he’s created here! He has a very strong bond with his animals, which is beautiful. Kevin allowed us to feed and interact with all of the animals and it was so wonderful to see how much he loves them! We had everything we needed. The bathroom and shower were fantastic and the river was lovely. Absolutely would recommend this stay to anyone!!!

Excellent stay! Carolyn was super welcoming and a good communicator. The property is nestled away in a quiet area and was perfect for our quick weekend trip.

There truly aren’t enough words to describe how incredible our experience was! Abby and Anna are the kindest, most friendly people I think we have ever met! When our tire blew out Abby made sure to help us get it fixed the next morning without us even asking him. He was truly an angel! The campsite was clean, easy to access, and the shower house with hot water was a life saver. We couldn’t stop talking about how much we loved it and we will 100% be back!

Camping in Glacier National Park guide

Overview

Best known for its glacier-carved mountain views, alpine lakes, and frequent sightings of bighorn sheep and grizzly bears, Glacier National Park is home to some of America’s most dramatic scenery. Going-to-the-Sun Road is the top attraction, winding its way for 50 miles through the park’s most scenic landscapes and offering plenty of gorgeous views and access to popular trails, while Logan Pass is teeming with both wildflowers and visitors. Fly fishing is plentiful, and you can tag along on ranger walks to learn about the area’s Blackfeet Nation history. Camping in Glacier National Park not only offers a beautiful place to stay the night, but also means you’ll have easy access to the park shuttle system and can get a head start on the trails in the morning.

Notable campgrounds

Best for RVs: St. Mary Campground

Tips for snagging a campsite

Glacier National Park has 13 campgrounds scattered throughout the park. Reservations can only be made in advance for the Fish Creek, Many Glacier, and St. Mary campgrounds. All others are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Campsites can be reserved up to six months in advance online. Reservations fill quickly, so make sure to book well in advance.
Most first-come, first-served campgrounds fill quickly, so arrive early for your best chance of scoring a spot. You can also check the Glacier National Park website for up-to-date campground status information, including the times at which each campground filled the previous day.

When to go

The best time for camping, hiking, and sightseeing in Glacier National Park is July through mid-September. Going-to-the-Sun Road typically opens in late June or early July and stays open until late October, although these dates strongly depend on weather conditions. Cyclists like to visit before the road opens so they can bike the road without traffic. September through early October, when the trees change colors and trails are a bit quieter, is a great time to visit. Apgar Campground is the only campground that remains open in winter.

Know before you go

The park offers dump stations but no hookups.
Showers are only available at the Fish Creek, Apgar, and St. Mary campgrounds.
Glacier National Park is bear country. All food, garbage, and toiletries must be stored in your vehicle or campsite bear-proof storage lockers when not in use.
Using the park shuttle is a great way to avoid dealing with parking at popular trailheads. Plus, vehicles longer than 21 feet are prohibited between Avalanche Campground and the Rising Sun Picnic Area on Going-to-the-Sun Road.
There are no gas stations in Glacier National Park—fill your tank in West Glacier or St. Mary.

Absolutely breath taking

Glacier National Park blew us away. We did the Going-to-the-Sun Road loop and were in awe the entire time. The views were truly unforgettable—towering peaks, crystal-clear lakes, and more waterfalls than we could count. We even got lucky enough to spot a couple of bears (from a safe distance!), which made the whole experience even more magical. Every stop along the way felt like a postcard come to life. The waterfalls were stunning, the air was fresh, and the whole park has this peaceful, wild beauty that’s hard to put into words. This was our first time visiting Glacier, and we already can’t wait to come back. If you’re on the fence—go! It’s truly one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever been.

Had a great time at Glacier, we enjoyed East Glacier more than West. East seemed to have better hikes and diversity.

Grinnell Glacier hike is one of the best hikes I’ve ever done. Super rewarding, slightly terrifying with grizzlies. Going the last week in September meant no issues with parking and the leaves had changed. It was beautiful

Glacier Rocks ..

Glacier is one of the more beautiful Nat parks in the US. The entrance was crowded but otherwise crowds seemed dispersed. We took the drive around to East Glacier along the fringe. Really a good route if you don’t have reservations to go inside.
