About Campground

Overview

Emery Bay Campground is located on the Hungry Horse Reservoir, high in the Rocky Mountains, less than 30 miles from the Continental Divide, surrounded by towering mountain peaks. Visitors can expect a variety of recreational activities, including fishing, boating, swimming, hiking, exploring and big game hunting. This Campground has 26 sites, 16 of which are reservable and 10 are walk-up sites.

The stay limit is 16 consecutive days.

Recreation

Boating is popular on the 27,750-acre reservoir, and a native boat ramp for smaller watercraft is available. Swimming and fishing are also popular pastimes, and anglers can expect a catch of cutthroat trout and other varieties.

Facilities

The campground offers 26 campsites, including some first come, first serve, available for tent and RV camping. Two group campsites are also available and can accommodate up to 75 guests on each separate loop.

Each site is equipped with tables and campfire rings with grills. Vault toilets are provided. Also drinking water is provided after June 15th.

We stayed here for two nights recently, as the 11th stop on a national park tour. We’ve stayed in a lot of campgrounds and this was one of the best. The vault toilets are the cleanest I have ever used. The camp hosts are super friendly and doing an amazing job taking care of this gorgeous campground.

Wonderful couple days here. Camp host is available and very nice. The views of the lake are amazing, and we swam every morning and evening in the bay. Calm, beautiful deep green/blue waters. About 15 miles or so from West Glacier National Park entrance. We will stay here again!

It was a little less than 30 min from the west entrance to the park and our site was secluded from other campers which was awesome. The reservoir access was a huge plus for us and we enjoyed the peaceful shore many times! The outhouses smelt really good shockingly and they were ALWAYS super clean. We stayed for 5 nights and 4/5 were quiet and peaceful. There was a wedding in the group site for one night and the DJ was playing really loud music to the point I could barely even think until around 11:30. It wasn’t ideal but oh well, congrats to the couple they chose a beautiful spot! I’m not sure what it’s called but there were tons of man made divets in the road that made the 10 min drive to camp VERY loud and bumpy but not unbearable!

We were in site 6, best site in the campground, though all are very beautiful. Site 6 is a FCFS site, though they called the WW in sites. Most have view of the lake. Host was wonderful. Vaulted toilets were very clean. Quite and spaced out sites. We planes on staying three nights and liked it so much we stayed six. 9-12 to 9-17, 2023.
