The large meadow at this campground is fantastic and photo-worthy at both dawn and dusk. This specific campsite is in a decent location at the top of the loop and is moderately roomy. Note that the parking is at an odd angle, making it difficult if you choose to back into the space. Adjoining campsites are pretty close, so neighbor noise and drifting campfire smoke can be problematic. Also, the shared bear box is right next to the picnic table and tent platform, so folks may be stopping by on occasion. Overall, a nice spot.

Excellent campsite with many trees for shading. Only about a one mile hike to Sprague Lake, which I would definitely recommend making. Near the shuttle pick-up to Bear Lake Road, which allowed easy access to the lake hikes in the higher elevations. The oversized tent area was large enough to accommodate our 10X14 sf tent. Bear proof storage was plentiful and accessible.

park was awesome - a little crowded as was to be expected, but all the rangers. shuttle bus drivers, and volunteers always had a great attitude and did their best to male sure everyone had a great time.

Nice location, having trees around was nice for shade. It’s a convenient location to get to various trailheads.

I was camped at the top of B loop and was fortunate to have enough tall trees to provide mid-day through afternoon shade. It was a shame that A loop wasn’t available because that has the best shade of the four loops. The campsites are a little close together but the comfort stations were very well cared for and close to the campsites. I will definitely stay at glacier basin campground again!

Great place to camp to get an early start in the park!

It was great! Just remember to bring extra shoes in case you get wet
