The temporary campground is behind of the parking lot, we spent few hours in the hotel lobby, gift shop, enjoy the sunset, even though it’s super cloudy!

My heart is bursting with joy as I reflect on the epic adventure I recently experienced in Glacier National Park and our stay at Many Glacier Campground. We hiked to Iceberg Lake, paddle boarded all over the local lakes and creeks. We had coffee with moose, celebrated happy hour watching grizzlies (from a safe distance) and a couple of black bears made an appearance. Pretty epic! Practice bear safety and put food away and always carry bear spray.

I almost gave this 4 stars, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. The only critique is how crowded and close quarters the campground is, but other than that, this place is perfect. In some ways, it’s TOO nice haha. The bathrooms were pristine and there was fresh water, both of which we didn’t expect. We don’t need much after a long day of hiking, so to come back to a beautiful site is all we need. It’s right by various trail heads which made exploring a breeze. We saw 4 moose right next to the campsite and we saw goats every night on the hill.
