Super lovely spot to spend the day! The colorful rocks and clear water make it beautiful, and there are plenty of spots around with picnic tables. I went with my daughter and she had a blast swimming. When we visited in August there was a swimmers’ itch warning posted, but showers are available on site to rinse off. We didn’t use them and just showered once we got home and had no issues. There’s a small day-use fee, and we even left and came back later to watch the sunset. simply peaceful and stunning. Can’t wait to return!

Loved his park. As most beaches parking is limited so come early. We found a spot and really enjoyed our day here. Water super clean and we enjoyed SUP and kayaking here. After being out on the water for a few hours the wind picked up and waves increased but we managed to get back shore safely. I would have loved to go across to the island but maybe next time we visit here. Pit toilets were decent. Rocky beach.

I visited as a bicycle traveler and utilized one of the walk-up spots for cyclists. The camp host was very nice, the facilities were clean, and my camping spot was perfect. Bear container and potable water was a plus. Echo Lake was beautiful and I got there just in time for the sunset.

Amazing park. Fantastic waterfront with lake access for swimming or paddleboarding. Well treed for shade or move closer to the water for sun!

Is it a beautiful place? Is the water cold? Yes, it is! There are plenty of water activities if you rent a boat or kayak. I suggest wearing a wetsuit. You can also find fishing access signs that will get you to the water. We took a two hour boat cruise which was a great way to see the lake and some of the spectacular homes on its shores. Oh, and we went to a production at the Playhouse in downtown Bigfork. It was really great!

This Montana State Park is beautiful. Campsites are basic (dry camping). Restrooms & shower house are clean & well-maintained.

It was okay. But by the reviews I expected something better. It was very confusing as to where the “beach” was. I did enjoy the morning chilling by the beach. And the multicolored rocks were cool. But maybe I should have tried a different area. It wasn’t kept up super well here and the late morning was shrouded in shade which made it really cold in August. The drivers in the area were pretty horrendous too. I much preferred lake Macdonald. Kind of a letdown here.

Good swimming spot for Flathead Lake. Not one big beach, but rather a bunch of little tree-lined access points. Various picnic tables and rocks to sit on. A couple bathrooms near the parking. Parking fills up fast but attendants helped direct parking!

Lovely easy hike with a view Pros: wildflowers, bathrooms, amazing vista Cons: one may wonder how to access the Wayfarers Loop from outside the fee area. Photos and info to follow Hack: check out my photos and don’t pay an entrance fee for day use.

Gorgeous lake and park. Very clean. Must visit if you are in Montana. Park fee is $8 per vehicle but it gives you access to all parks around the lake. Great place for camping, water activities and photo opportunities. Restrooms are available at all parks and plenty of parking. Would definitely go there again. It can take the whole day to cover all the parks around the lake.
