No internet, but we’re able to make a calls. Sites are so narrow and of level a lot! We straggled and saw neighborhoods were not able to park. Showers are at different loop- not close by- and have no parking spots. Bathrooms were closed for the season one day before they close the campground.
Right by the lake for the swimming, short hike with great view. But so inconvenient to drive to rest of the trails. Construction made it miserable.

This is located in Glacier National Park really nice campsite lots of trees makes you feel like you're actually in the woods versus some campsites that are all paved and over crowded.

We reserved campsite #64 in Loop B in Fish Creek Campground 4 days in advance of our stay in Glacier National Park. Fish Creek Campground is in West Glacier on the west side of Lake McDonald. Campers can walk to the lake using a trail via Loop C or on Rocky Point Trail. The trailhead for Rocky Point Trail actually started in Loop B, right next to site 64. Fish Creek Campground had 4 loops with pull-in sites with varying degrees of size and slope. 64 was level, a nice size site, and we had to accurately position the trailer between trees on both sides of the driveway to be able to fully extend the pop out and awning. We rode our bikes on the hike / bike paths to Apgar Village, the Visitor Center, and the town of West Glacier. The paths were a great way to get around without having to drive. Plus, Fish Creek Campground was much more quiet than the campgrounds on Going to the Sun Road which was undergoing major construction. Fish Creek was a good choice as a base camp for enjoying all that Glacier NP has to offer.

Great location, however some trees around road in campground need cut down. It is too tight to maneuver a camper around the road.

Nice campground with showers. I had excellent cell service (if that matters to you when you're in a living Bob Ross painting) at site A-01.

Fantastic location with some stunning scenery. The swimming is amazing. The stay was only ruined by the incredibly rude host.

This is a campsite, not a hotel. They have various campsites depending on your needs. There are some sites large enough for trailers. They have several tent sites with decent parking. There are also tent only sites that have no parking specifically for hikers. I think this is the best spot to camp inside the park. The campsites are good sized. And it's only a couple minutes walk to the lake. I was able to fit 2 tents and 2 vehicles on my site comfortably, and still had room to have a nice campfire with all 5 of us spaced out nicely. At the end of the night it was nice and quiet but there was also good cell service to stream a movie if we wanted. I think this is the only campsite that has service on that side of the park. I came from the entrance near Whitefish. I stayed the night and had great cell service. The next day I started driving toward the sun road. Within 5 miles I had lost cell signal. I drove up to the summit and then back the way I came. I didn't have a cell signal again until I was within 5 miles of that park entrance. I noticed that I drove by Sprague campground which was also near the west entrance. I didn't have any cell signal when I was driving, hence my assumption that there would be no cell service in that campground.

Fish Creek campground is a nice campground and I have stayed there multiple times. The campground does however need some updates. The bathrooms are the main reason for the 4 stars because other than that it is a very nice campground that has ample shade and a nice scenery of beautiful pine trees. It sits near Apgar village which is a plus, I would recommend this campground when staying in Glacier National Park!

Nice campground on the west side of Glacier NP. Spot was good for tent camping and had lots of shade. You are able to walk to the lake which is nice. Lots of rangers driving through the campground, which appears to be necessary to ensure proper food storage. For a national park campground the spots were a bit on the small side, combined with noisy neighbours not the best fit.

Great campground with beautiful scenery of the lake and gorgeous trees surrounding the campground. Be ready to bring bug spray. Mosquitoes are the only nuisance.

Very nice campground with wonderful staff. Only thing is I would recommend ear plugs if you are a light sleeper as there are quite a few sites in each loop and despite quiet hours with that many folks the sound travels quite a bit.

Decent option close to the west entrance. Tucked into the trees. Not great other guests running generators and RVs but good jumping off point for exploring glacier.
