RMNP is, of course, a beautiful place and I am grateful for every day I spend there. Glacier Basin Campground is well managed, facilities are maintained and clean, and staff are friendly. Be aware that this is a very busy and noisy campground. It is a good place to crash as a base for your adventures, but not a very pleasant place to camp if you are trying to get away from human bustle. It is filled with RVs running generators, large groups talking loudly, frequent beeps and honks from cars being lucked/unlocked, trashcan lids slamming, and several people loudly watching movies or sporting events on portable media. People were generally respectful of the quiet hours, but being surrounded by human cacophony until 10pm isn't my idea of "getting away". If you aren't as much of a curmudgeon as me and don't mind close neighbors on a camping trip, Glacier Basin is great. It provides easy access to the Bear Lake Road and Park & Ride, and you can access good hiking trails directly from the campground. Bathrooms are well-maintained.

We enjoyed the hiking and the beauty but found the timed-entry process confusing. You need to have a separate ticket to go down Bear Lake Rd. which we did not know. Even after reading the info on the website it wasn't very clear to us. We were able to enter at 1 pm since we had camping reservations but we wasted some of our short trip because we had to wait until then.

Awesome place to stay. The bathroom was clean and the view of the mountains were spectacular.
