St. Mary/East Glacier KOA - excellent for longer stays, expensive for short ones

This was our second stop en route to Yellowstone National Park. We went this way so that we could see Glacier National Park and do the "Going to the Sun Road", but quickly learnt that you need reservations for that... so we'll have to tackle that next time. We have always wanted to try a KOA. Our first choice was West Glacier, but they were sold out, so we went with St. Mary. It was excellent, but I'm just not sure it's worth the price if you're just a bunch of adults who are passing through for one night. If you're going to be there a few days, absolutely. If you have kids and want them to feel entertained, this is worth it. Great amenities like laundry, playgrounds, a pool, an excellent store that has everything, awesome staff that drive you to your site, views for days. I just think that for us, making a one night stop here, it was too expensive at almost $140USD (and we are Canadian, so that's not a favourable conversion). Can't say enough good things about the place, it is kept up beautifully and we went for several walks taking in the scenery and felt completely safe. Excellent coffee for the drive in the morning in their shop, and great souvenirs, including free beer koozies at the front desk. Wifi was not terrible, either! Thanks for a great stay, hope to make it a longer one next time!

The location was the only thing good about this KOA. Loved how quick it was to get into the park! There was a dead animal decomposing under our porch which reeked and they didn’t do anything about it. (Said they didn’t know what to do!) There are only about 9 toilets/showers (about 6 gendered, 3 neutral) for hundreds of people. We had to wait every morning and every night to use the toilet and shower. There were so many people and cabins were packed together. We heard when all neighbors came and went (especially the Harleys!) These very small, rustic cabins were way over priced for what they are. I would not recommend them and won’t stay there again.

By far the BEST KOA we've ever stayed at! The staff is incredibly helpful (they even tried to help us fix our broken tent), the showers are AMAZING and the scenery is second to none. This place has a special spot in my heart!!

My son and I were in the hot tub and some pool for about 1.5-2 hours at most. When done, my favorite black shirt is now light brown, chemical burns on my son and my legs (disabled us on our trip), other clothes got discolored. My son and I told a worker on a golf cart about a skunk, joked about it, we got up about 2-230 PM to go to the public bathrooms but was trapped in the camping cabin with no bathroom due to 3-4 more skunks running around and living under our cabin. I can send you photos and prove based on the service and battery charged phones we had. We stayed with you on Thursday, July 13 to July 14 of 2023. I have been staying with you all for years and spent 100s and 1000s of dollars and this is just irresponsible hurting people like this and their health. I can take photos of the other clothing too.

We stayed 4 nights while exploring Glacier NP. The staff where wonderful, facilities clean, and views from the campground beautiful! We rented a car from the KOA. Grateful for that service, as we were not towing and our RV was too long to drive the whole length of the Going to the Sun Road.The stars at night are amazing with so little light pollution. I was able to take some nice Milky Way and Northern Lights shots a few steps from the RV! We’d stay again in a heartbeat.
