Reviews from Google

We very much enjoyed our stay at Whispering Pines. Staff were friendly and helpful, amenities were great- we especially appreciated the two separate fenced dog areas! Our site was good sized and shady, which we like. There are also sites available that are more amenable to folks who need satellite or Starlink access. Restrooms were very clean and well maintained as well. We’d highly recommend this site if you’re looking for a spot near Glacier, Whitefish, or Flathead Lake!

This was a great place to stay! Plenty of space, lovely wooded area, clean showers. Centrally located to visit GNP, Whitefish, Kalispell and Big Fork. Live music in Columbia Falls at the Gunsite Saloon. We had planned to stay 2 nights but extended our stay to 4 nights. The hosts are very accommodating and knowledgeable about the area. I highly recommend staying here.

Great location and place to stay with your coach and dogs! Private yet close to everything!! Glacier, Flathead lake and Whitefish dwn-twn dining was a treat and close to groceries gas and what nots. Staff was wonderful and we really liked the two dog parks (one smaller than the other) and multiple places to walk them. Restrooms were clean and showers were hands down the best we’ve had in 4 week 🥳 Things to do for kids and adults while camping. Clearly much pride goes in to this RV Park and it shows. We will come back when up this way.
