Glacier/Two Medicine
Overview
Two Medicine Campground offers a unique opportunity to stay within the southeastern corner of Glacier National Park. Steeped in Blackfeet tribal history and legendary scenery, this area served as the primary destination for park visitors before the construction of the Going-to-the-Sun Road. Today, it remains a peaceful retreat for RVers who prefer dramatic mountain backdrops over modern resort luxuries. The park is characterized by its quiet atmosphere and stunning views of the surrounding peaks, providing a more intimate connection with the Montana wilderness than the busier western corridors.
Location & Surroundings
Situated near East Glacier Park, MT, the campground is tucked between several massive summits and glacial valleys. The area is dominated by the iconic Sinopah Mountain, which reflects perfectly in the glass-like waters of Two Medicine Lake. Because it is located on the eastern side of the Continental Divide, the landscape feels more rugged and exposed than the lush western valleys. Travelers will find themselves surrounded by a mix of subalpine forests and jagged, wind-swept ridges that define the Great Plains-to-Mountain transition.
Amenities & Park Features
This is a traditional national park campground, meaning it is best suited for those prepared for dry camping. There are no electric, water, or sewer hookups at the individual sites, so coming with full tanks is essential. However, the park provides necessary facilities including flush toilets and communal potable water stations. While some sites can accommodate RVs up to 35 feet, many are smaller and more shaded. A short walk from the campsites leads to the historic Two Medicine Store, where travelers can find basic supplies and unique local gifts.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
Adventure begins right at the edge of the campground loop. Visitors often take the narrated scenic boat tour across Two Medicine Lake to access deeper trailheads or simply enjoy the mountain vistas from the water. For a shorter excursion, the hike to Running Eagle Falls is a must-see, featuring a unique waterfall where the stream flows from two different rock levels. Those seeking a challenge can explore the Pitamakan-Dawson Loop, which offers some of the most expansive views found anywhere in the national park system.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination is ideal for self-contained RVers who value proximity to nature above digital connectivity or resort amenities. Because of the size restrictions and narrow access roads, it is better for camper vans, truck campers, and smaller travel trailers rather than massive motorhomes. It is a perfect fit for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers who want to be onsite for the golden hour light hitting the mountains without the heavy crowds found near the park’s western entrance.

Beautiful campground in a great location of the park. Just got back from a Montana Wyoming trip. Stayed 2 nights at glacier, first at fish creek and second at two medicine. Two medicine was by far our favourite site. There’s a pretty lake right beside the campground with clean swimming water and a great view. We preferred staying on east side of the park because driving on going to the sun road from east to west is prettier. Sites don’t have individual bear lockers. There are communal bear lockers around the campground. We stored food in our car for this reason.

Fantastic campground! Everything in Glacier is beautiful and wonderful. Two Medicine has its own charm as it's less busy and a little more laid back than other campgrounds like Many Glacier. Sheep with their babies come down into the campground from the mountain to eat daily, they walk right by you very comfortably.

This is one of the best campground we’ve been to. It is serene, peaceful and so close to nature and wildlife. We truly enjoyed our stay here and would love to come back again!

Nice campground and base for a couple days of exploring and hiking in eastern Glacier National Park. Clean bathrooms. Some of the campsites can be a little tight so pay attention to descriptions when booking. Good hiking right out of campsites. Short hike up to store/cafe on lakeshore. Options for boat tours.

Absolutely stunning views! Perfect spot to dip your toes into the lake. We went on opening weekend and although it was crowded we still really enjoyed our campground and hanging out on the lake. Bonus gift shop with small coffee shop/breakfast options.

The national park service has ruined the national park experience with their reservation system. Reservations are mandatory yet campsites remain unoccupied each night because people blanket reserve sites locking everyone else out of the campground. Extremely disappointed with the management of the National Park system.

We were in loop A site 1- beautiful! Right across the road from the water. Not much shade in this site and we had a heck of a time putting stakes in the rocky ground. Campground was quiet, perfect place to unplug. Great trails! Hike to upper two medicine lake, it’s amazing! Sheep in campground. Host was very nice. Camped in June.

i initially did not enjoy this campground as much as i enjoyed Many Glacier or Apgar. it’s grown on me due to the beautiful scenery. the campground is right by the lake and our site (A1) was just a walk across the road to get down to the water. the sites lack shade, but we still had a few trees to string up hammocks. Many Glacier has the energy of really getting out and hiking the trails, whereas Two Medicine makes you just want to sit by the water and reflect. people fishing, paddle-boarding or boating. it’s definitely a less busy area of the park. sadly, no big wildlife sitings, other than a bald eagle, although we did hear some— the North Shore trail is scenic. camp hosts were friendly. bathrooms are super outdated, but have hand soap. no showers. potable water. no at&t.

This is the quietest campground I've ever been to. Beautiful lakes and trees. We have a 28ft trailer and our site in loop A was a tight fit but so private. Access to lots of hikes, boat ride, general store is well stocked. It is a long, bumpy road in and out. Only drawback was no showers but flush toilets and a dump area for dish water and portable toilets at the bathrooms. Managed to get a small cell signal in our camper in just the right spot with ATT. Otherwise no signal anywhere in the park.

We reserved a spot online that said it was large enough for two tents but our tents barely fit. There was a square spare lined with wood, presumably for tent space, but aside from that there was another very small area for an even smaller tent. Both tents were very close to the fire pit as well. The views, however, were amazing! We were within walking distance to the lake and could easily see the mountain scenery. We appreciated that the ranger came by each campsite to greet us and answer any questions we had as well. The bathrooms are also pretty great!
