From Darby, MT travel south 4.3 miles on Highway 93, turn south (right) on the West Fork Road and procede for approximately 14.3 miles. Turn west (right) on Forest Road 468, Nez Perce Road and travel for approximately 36 miles (Nez Perce Rd becomes Magruder Corridor.) to the campground.
Great campground, though mainly owing to the efforts of hosts Randy and Karen, who are prompt, thorough, and friendly in all that they do. Some sites are pretty exposed and road and train noise is noticeable. However, this did not bother our family of four to any degree. Firewood was available for sale when we visited.
The camp hosts, Karen and Randy, are LOVELY humans. And the restrooms?? SO CLEAN. I have never in my life seen cleaner pit toilets. No running water but honestly would trade that for those clean bathrooms. Beautiful and convenient spot. Some train and road noise.
Halfway between Glacier East and Glacier West along state route 2 south of the park. The custodians are a lovely couple and zoom around in an adorable golf scooter. The place is tidy, easy to get to and around. The bathrooms are well kept and smell good. Everything is clean. No lights anywhere at night and it is pitch black. If you need to use the bathroom make sure you bring a flashlight. Otherwise a beautiful campsite. I highly recommend starting there. East side entrances are closed to the park for the 2020 season and it is 34 miles to the west gate.
Stayed for 5 nights in late June. Beautiful area that’s roughly 35 minutes away from West Glacier and an hour from the east entrance. Nights were chilly in a tent (a low of 33° F) so come prepared. Potable water wasn’t available but should be ready next season. Mosquitoes were everywhere so bring bug spray. As others have mentioned, the site is right by a highway and a major rail route. Noise wasn’t terrible but the train woke us up more than once. Bathrooms were very clean and Randy and Karen were simply the best camp hosts! All in all, a well kept and very convenient campsite for people trying to get the most out of a visit to Glacier.
