This is a review from June 2022 that I forgot to share with everyone. I’m sure after reading my review there will be many out there scratching their heads as to why I gave 5 stars. My wife & I took off on a 5 state 3 week motorcycle trip from Southern California through the Pacific Northwest & back. We actually had made reservations for another campsite but since it had been raining all day & wasn’t going to let up we decided to look for a more permanent structure to lay our heads at night for the next 3 days. Upon our arrival the husband & wife camp host team were extremely cordial, helpful and friendly. The small rustic cabin we stayed in had no electricity or bathroom. Bathrooms were nearby but to get to both the cabin & bathrooms/showers we had to traverse a small footbridge that went over a creek. It rained so hard that evening that the small bridge was completely covered with running water. So serious did it rain that the camp host came to us from an overgrown road to show us how we could get out in case of an emergency & to let me know that my motorcycle was in jeopardy of being swallowed up by the rising raging creek. Also I believe this creek ran into a small pond which also was getting full fast. For the next few days my wife and I played cards, built a small campfire in front of our cabin when the rain let up for a few hours & took walks to Swan Lake nearby. Again the camp host were extremely helpful & offered us some firewood & extra lighting. Also we brought water, food & snacks with us along with a small Jackery power supply that kept our phones & lights charged. Also I believe the front store which I believe also had a kitchen was being renovated at the time. It’s funny how life works especially as one gets older, hopefully more mature & overall is grateful every day they’re alive. Yes I would’ve loved to enjoy some sun, fishing, hiking & or to venture out a bit more & explore but all in all it was a such a great memorable experience that I wouldn’t trade for the world. The bond that was built upon between my wife & I during our stay here is everlasting & still giving us benefits. Thank you to the camp hosts that were there in June 2022. I will try & share some photos of our memorable experience here @ Swan Lake Trading Post & Campground.

It was a campground. Very unorganized on the camping side of the business. They give you a key for the bathrooms and shower rooms. There were no instructions on returning said key after hours. The wifi does not work throughout the campground. Distance was a few feet off of the back deck. That was it. Seemed to be overbooked. They try to put you in spots that don't have a designated site, in order to make extra money. Now, the trading post store was great. They had it well stocked and had a lot of great items at great prices.

Stayed in a cabin for a week in July of 2024 and absolutely loved it. The owners seem like quirky and super down to earth-type of people. The area is super beautiful with a little creek, bridge, pond, and generally great landscaping. The food! What a wonderful surprise to find that they had homemade pizza and coffee at a very reasonable price. There's a town about 20 minutes away with groceries, bars, food, etc. I would stray away from that closest gas station that states "last gas station for 25 miles," because they were way overpriced. This place is 1 hour away from Glacier national park and it was well worth it to stay there rather than anywhere closer. I will HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone going to Glacier National Park or the surrounding area. They do have mosquitos, so bring spray during that time of year, but that was literally the only bad thing I could say about the place.

4 day reservation at this campground because we prefer a smaller quiet campground versus the "trailer park style." This is by far the best campground we've ever stayed at. The hosts are friendly and were more than accommodating our entire stay. Anything we needed they were able to help. The guy even helped us back out rig into our site the first night as it was late. The hosts were exceptionally friendly, brought firewood right to our site, opened the laundry room later than stated hours for us, and let us get a few necessities in the store (even though it wasn't officially open). If we ever come back out to Glacier area, we will definitely be staying here again!! No service at campsite but didn't bother us any because, after all, that's not what camping is about!! 10/10 highly recommend 😊

We booked two nights and stayed one. The campground is nice but could use some TLC. The host, Kelly was very nice and helpful when we arrived. We were the only people there. The showers were hot and the one I used was big. These sites are not satellite or Starlink friendly. They are nestled in the trees which is great for the scenery, not so much for internet. The onsite WiFi did not work for us at all. It was late by the time we realized it and I didn't want to bother the host. Verizon and ATT had no service at all. The laundry has a sign stating the hours are 8am to 6pm. We arrived at 6:07 pm so decided to wait for morning. When we left at 11am, the laundry was still locked. I found the site on the internet searching for RV sites on the lake. There is no lake access from this site. I assume you could drive somewhere to access it but isn't what we were looking. The Trading Post (Store) is closed. Looks like it has been closed for a long time. That was disappointing as we could have used a few things and would have stopped on our in had we known. The price at 60.00+ a night is a bit steep for what is offered in my opinion. I did not ask for a refund for the second night as I can read the refund policy. I do not like making posts that potentially hurt a business but the website for this park is a bit misleading and should be corrected with updated information.
