A gravel parking lot with RV's and a shabby tipi with none of the amenities in the description.

A gravel pit full of RV's with no charm, no amenities, not even any toilet paper in the lone bathroom a long walk from our sad little tipi. The entire description of the place was fiction.

We have stayed for a few nights over the 4th of July, 2023 at this place to visit Glacier National Park. The only good about this place is that the campground (not a resort by far) is relatively close to the East side entrance of the park (~20 miles). There are really not many choices to camp on the East side of the Glacier National Park, but I strongly recommend KOA St. Mary's over Glacier Grizzly campground if you are able to find availability at KOA. The pictures on Glacier Grizzly's website do keep changing constantly and most of the pictures are taken of some other places and not theirs. I am attaching few pictures of what it is really over there. The place is all gravel with water, sewer and electric hookups. They used to advertise 50amp hookups (they have stopped doing so since), but there were only 30amp hookups available at the time of our stay and I really doubt anything changed since. The sites are indeed fairly spacious, though fire pits are simply hole dugouts in the gravel. There was only one, recently built shower house available for the whole campground (2 showers and 2 toilets), but upkeep of it was lacking - no toilet paper, no hand soap, no way to dry your hands after using a restroom, nobody cleaned shower house during our entire stay! As an icing on the cake, one of the toilets got clogged and nobody had bothered taking care of it for a few days. Furthermore, there were only a couple locations for a garbage disposal that were overflowing with garbage. For around $130/night, we have definitely expected more. All the negative reviews are fairly accurate about the campground and the service (or lack of the service) provided.

NO HOT WATER. 8pm and no hot water left in shower. Had to take cold shower after all day hiking…read more Shower curtain had a huge gap underneath (see photo) allowing water to FLOOD entire bathroom floor. Paper-thin walls. We heard every conversation in the rooms around us- I mean we could hear EVERY WORD said in the room next door and they could hear us too! Every bump and noise from above. Absolutely horrible. Wifi was spotty and intermittent. Extremely overpriced! Only booked here because we couldn't find anything else available in St Mary. Now I know to just stay somewhere else- anywhere else. Drive an hour just to avoid the Red Eagle Motel. We were in Room #6. Would never ever come here again and wanted to warn others! Only nice thing was the location and the view.

A Spartan motel with little to recommend it; the only saving grace of the Red Eagle Motel and RV…read morePark is that is it close to the entrance of Glacier NP. Mis-matched towels so scratchy you might use them for sanding the next project in your woodshop and so thin that you might mistake them for Kleenex. Room featured a broken window screen so that all manner of bugs might visit. No housekeeping service. Little to no cell reception. Wi-fi that does not work in the rooms; it only works if you are directly in front of the office. No hair dryer provided. No bureau or other horizontal surface in the room to place anything. Low shower water pressure so you feel like you are being misted rather than showered with a temperature that only scores tolerable, certainly not warm. No ice available on site. No phones in the room. No air conditioning, only a rather loud fan that does little to cool the room. Surly front desk attendant who didn't bother to provide any information about the lack of housekeeping or the crappy wi-fi password upon check-in. One star for not having bed bugs, or at least none that were evident. Perhaps they should rename this establishment the "Dead Eagle Motel."

This is a large campground on the west side of Glacier National Park…read more PROS: -Lots of sites -Good alternative stay for those who couldn't get a site at Many Glacier -Flush toilets and soap in the bathrooms -Registered camper showers -Decent tree cover -Not too cramped CONS: -No hiking trails within walking distance -View is not spectacular like some of the other campgrounds

When we arrived at the campsite the ranger was very friendly and gave us helpful information about storing our food items and being sure to pack everything up as this area is prone to bears. The site itself was very private. Our particular campsite allowed the RV to be parked in front and was surrounded by trees so we felt as though we were in our own little camping world. The sites at the top of loop C offer an open field perfect for sunset watching or stargazing, but do not provide as much privacy. When planning your stay, be sure to note the shower locations. We were on the opposite end of the loop, and running to the showers in the brisk morning air was not a favorable option. Additionally, the visitors center is a little bit of a walk, but provides a shuttle to Logan Pass via "Going to the Sun Road". This was a great option for us, as our RV was not able to drive the road due to vehicle size restrictions. I would recommend the shuttle as it runs pretty frequently and parking can be scarce at the popular overlooks and trail heads. Overall, we enjoyed this campsite and look forward to coming back here!

It made a great "hub" for everything to do in the area and around the lake. It is convenient to Glacier National and does not have all the busyness and congestion of West Glacier. The staff is delightful, friendly and helpful. We WILL be back to Whispering Pines and it will be longer than the 12 nights spent this year !

The road off Hwy. 40 to Whispering Pines seems less than a quarter mile but it makes a huge difference in being able to feel like you're shrouded in rural bliss. It seems like the perfect central location to our primary interests of Glacier National Park, Whitefish, Kalispell, and Bigfork. We've stayed there for the summer season now for 3 years and also appreciate access to many many wonderful hiking trails. The two separate areas of sites in Whispering Pines RV Park (check out the map on the Web site) each pose great options depending on what you prefer: first accessable sites on the entry road are all sunny and surrounded by open fields, drive farther on the campground and choose a site in an area full of trees/shade that seems less open but so welcoming. Shade is what we ended up choosing in the hotter MT summer these days. Original owners were fabulous and new owners are even more so. We are treated like family for sure and I observed similar treatment and welcome for all guests new and repeat customers. My husband and I and our dog Steve will always choose Whispering Pines as our place to stay when we return every year.
