Beautiful campground in a great location of the park.Just got back from a Montana Wyoming trip. Stayed 2 nights at glacier, first at fish creek and second at two medicine. Two medicine was by far our favourite site.Thereβs a pretty lake right beside the campground with clean swimming water and a great view.We preferred staying on east side of the park because driving on going to the sun road from east to west is prettier.Sites donβt have individual bear lockers. There are communal bear lockers around the campground. We stored food in our car for this reason.

Fantastic campground!Everything in Glacier is beautiful and wonderful. Two Medicine has its own charm as it's less busy and a little more laid back than other campgrounds like Many Glacier.Sheep with their babies come down into the campground from the mountain to eat daily, they walk right by you very comfortably.

Nice campground and base for a couple days of exploring and hiking in eastern Glacier National Park. Clean bathrooms. Some of the campsites can be a little tight so pay attention to descriptions when booking. Good hiking right out of campsites. Short hike up to store/cafe on lakeshore. Options for boat tours.
