Whitefish / Kalispell North KOA Holiday

We stayed in site 95 for a week, a pull through site with a little round picnic table under the pine trees. We loved the staff. Great people, helpful, friendly, kind. The location to Whitefish and Glacier are great. What we loved about this KOA was the low-key, quiet, and rustic atmosphere. Peaceful place. Thank you for your hospitality.

This is a nice RV park, very secluded in the woods. You can still hear road noise, but you definitely feel like you’re in the forest. Make sure to have satellite internet because there is absolutely no reception until you get to the main road. The spots are really tight too, it was a show watching people try to get these enormous rigs into tiny spots. It is something to pay attention to if you’re bigger than 32 feet, we stayed at the entrance back in spots, and while it was tight, it was definitely better than some of the spots in the middle. Deer and turkey on property too.

I am so torn about this place. First, and most importantly, the staff was great and gave me a refund, no questions asked. Everything seemed to be clean and maintained well, too. Now into the bad. If it were just another KOA, I think I could give it another star. But given it's proximity to Glacier, one would think they would try to make it more enjoyable to make the 45 minute drive worth it. They have not. It's like stepping back into 1987. "Buffalo Bob's" pizza still has rustic 80's decor and 20+ original (probably worth a fortune tbh) arcade games. Galaga, Street Fighter, etc but half are broken. The "playground" was probably from the 80's and very lackluster as well. The third strike for me was that my camper and truck did not fit in the spot they provided. I was worried that someone would hit one of them. Overall, I would definitely make it work if I had to. But there are definitely better options. Maybe we'll give it another shot when my kiddo's whole camping experience doesn't revolve around the playground.
