Super friendly staff, nice wooded/private campsites for tent campers who don’t need water or electric, nice shower/bathroom facilities, perfect location to access all three entrances on the east side of glacier national park. Would stay again in the future if visiting GNP!

Everything except WiFi.

Incredible spot and views. Great pool and showers. Great camp store. Very friendly staff. BUT their WiFi is out and a sign at the office says no repair on the near future indefinitely.

The St. Mary KOA is located very near the east entrance for the Going To The Sun Road at Glacier National Park. It is a quiet park with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. The sites are nicely spaced, but for some reason, the sewer hookups are sometimes located right in the middle of your neighbor's grassy area. The roads can be a bit tight to navigate, and the terraced sites can cause a bit of tail drag upon exit. The facilities are convenient - pool, showers, laundry - and clean. The WIFI is fabulous! We thought we would miss all of the Olympics, but we got to catch up each night. Our only complaint is that NO ONE - young, old, families - respects your sites, despite signs throughout the park to not cross occupied sites. Whether we were outside or not, any time of the day or night, people crossed our site, and that of our traveling companions. Overall, it was a great stay. We camped at St. Mary / East Glacier KOA Holiday in a Fifth Wheel.

I can’t say enough positive about our time at this campground. We were a family of 12, one trailer, 4 tents and one cabin They went above and beyond to get us as close together as possible with a very full camp. Everyone had a ball. Hot tub was a great addition after hiking. Bike lending, laundry, firewood and ice delivery were greatly appreciated. Bathrooms clean and good water pressure, could use hooks for personal belongings in bathroom by pool. Great store with reasonable prices. Great staff. Beautiful views from the campground. Easy access to GNP, including Red Bus tours picking up at office. Highly recommend.

Needs more bathrooms

This place is OK, but they have a serious bathroom problem. They only have three bathroom facilities to begin with - two of which have showers. When we arrived both the office and pool bathroom locations had toilets out of order in the women's and men's rooms. That situation got much worse as the next day several more men's toilets were out of order. There were only 6 showers total in the whole place for women, and 6 for men (I think). This place can easily have 300+ people staying in it at a time - it is huge. I realize they probably assume that the people in campers are showering and using the toilets in their campers, but I don't think this is always the case. My (male) partner and I both ended up walking quite far, or waiting in lines for showers and toilet stalls. When I mentioned this to one of the front desk staff, she indicated that the toilets had been "vandalized" and the owner was out buying new toilets. When I asked what happened, she said she didn't know. I don't know if I buy the story. That said, our tent site was in a lovely location by the river. We found the pool and dishwashing facilities to be adequate, though do note that the children's splash pad was out of order when we were there (don't know why). We enjoyed being able to order a pizza to our campsite - quite a novelty! It is a great location overall in St. Mary, very close to the entrance to the GTTSR, which is perhaps why they can get away with so few bathrooms - there aren't many other options so people will continue staying there and paying the high cost regardless.
