Convenient location, but densely packed and not very photogenic.

Avalanche Campground has a few qualities to recommend it. The sites are spacious, well-shaded and well-screened from neighbors. I thought it was relatively quiet despite being full. The bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. The campground made the rounds 3 times while I was there, answering questions for me and even giving a nearby camper a jump-statrt. It also provides easy access to the excellent Avalanche Lake Trail as well as the easy Trail of the Cedars. It makes for a handy base camp for exploring Glacier NP as it's located partway up the Going-to-the-Sun Road on the park's west side. I've also camped in the larger Apgar campground, and I definitely prefer Avalanche, despite Apgar's proximity to more amenities.

Avalanche Campground was great. We enjoyed its location within Glacier Park. The campground host was always there--he was available and responsive to our questions. The campground was quiet and well-maintained. We really appreciated the quantity of bear boxes for our food and other items that may attract a bear.

Avalanche Campground is my favorite in GNP. Its a great jumping off point for many of the awesome activities in the park. The campground is well maintained and the camp hosts are great.

Despite the limited availability of reservations available, there were lots of empty campsites. Not sure if these are no-shows? If so, why are they not put back into the system as available?The trip up to Logan Pass was easy from this campround. the Avalanche lake trail is overcrowded, but there are many others in the area.

Very quiet and clean campground with simple pull in site for our camper. Bathrooms clean and well maintained. The proximity to the Avalanche Lake trail was a huge bonus as you wont have to fight for parking.

Crowded campground with nosy passive aggressive camp hosts. We reserved two nights & did not stay the second night.
@DavidO4885909 · Camped on Sep 6, 2025 at Campsite #A51
For a very crowded park and a completely full campground our site still felt private, people were quiet and responsible.

Campground was great, clean and spacious spots. Really close to the creek and a trailhead.

The staff at the campground were diligently monitoring the campground for bear safety.All the NPS staff that I encountered were helpful, kind, and knowledgeable.Also, we were able to park 2 cars at our campsite because there was plenty of space.There was hiking close to the campground (the trail was very popular) that ended at a beautiful lake.

Peaceful serene campground (of course that also depends on who your fellow campers are! We lucked out and gad a bunch if quiet, respectful neighbors)Wonderful aromas of pine & firs from the shading trees (well most if the park forest smells like that) very therapeutic.The Avalanche camp hosts were delightful. Nice convo. The restrooms were typically very clean, other than a few fellow women campers who left papers all over the floor a couple nights and one of them told ok the bottle of provided soap (ppl need to leave their bad behavior home) restroom block had newly laid cement. No electricity as per description so bring light source for evening forays.

Campground was peaceful. access to bathrooms was good. Starlink worked. Slope was such that I had to remove my truck camper to get it level. Access to shuttle for Going to the Sun was terrible. Twice we waited for two hours and every shuttle was full. Trail of the Cedars was good though crowded on Labor Day weekend. Rangers were great.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
@CarlaLThompson - Colorado
