	Grasshopper creek: Favorite campground Tip Rating: Satisfaction:

By EllenH on January 9, 2005

great campsite

by EllenH

This is a state park in the Pioneer mountains, close to crystal park, Elkhorn hot springs, Ghost towns of Coolidge and Bannack, and the Pioneer Mountains scenic byway between Polaris (don't blink or you will miss it) and Wise River.

Well they have bears, although I have never seen one. There are warnings posted everywhere. They have the new and improved forest service outhouses, nice camping areas,drinking water, trails, gold panning in the creek, again I have never found gold but I have friends who go there for that very reason. As long as there aren't any burning restrictions, they have nice fire pits also.
Last year it cost $9 for a campsite.

	Fishing Access Sites: Free camping Tip Rating: Satisfaction:

By EllenH on September 6, 2004

Paradise fishing access

by EllenH

Western Montana is full of rivers. The Bitterroot, the Blackfoot, the Clark Fork, the Yellowstone, The Big Hole, The Flathead, and on and on and on. And they all get fished...alot. So there are many many fishing accesses where you park your car and gain access to the river. Most of these places allow camping, and most do not charge. Granted no showers but they do have a bathroom, modern day forest service "outhouses" have come a long way and they are generally well maintained. Oh and did I mention FREE?

The views are always outstanding, you are on a river and there is nothing nearby to disturb you. They have picnic tables and firepits also.

Theme: Campground

Comparison: least expensive

Address: along any river in Montana

Directions: Look for the brown forest service signs that say fishing access, they are everywhere.

	The Spa hot springs motel: Between Glacier and Yellowstone Tip Rating: Satisfaction:

Updated By EllenH on January 9, 2005

hot springs pool

by EllenH

Alot of people coming to Montana want to see both Glacier National park and Yellowstone National park. That is a big undertaking and a lot of driving but if you insist upon it, the shortest route between the 2 parks is u.s. 89 and about 1/2 way in between there is this funky little town called White Sulpher Springs. This is not a fancy hotel by any means and not expensive but very Montana ish..... it took us about 4 1/2 hours to drive there and no i would not go out of my way to go back because there are nicer hot springs closer to where I live but if I was traveling between the 2 parks it would be the perfect layover and very relaxing.

they have a hot springs pool, need i say more?

	Flying R guest cabins: in the Bitterroot valley Tip Rating: Satisfaction:

By EllenH on July 25, 2004

by EllenH, 1 more photos

I always recommend this place to customers in the restaurant looking for a nice place to stay in the valley. This is the kind of place you come to Montana for. 2 cabins with kitchen facilities, I guess you could cook up the fish you caught that day.

Great views, beautiful part of Montana, quiet and private. The host family are wonderful people. (lol see my warning or danger tip about speeding in Darby)

	Swiftcurrent Motor Inn and The... Tip Rating:

By dinagideon on August 25, 2002

by dinagideon

Swiftcurrent Motor Inn and The Many Glacier Hotel and let's not forget camping!!
Ooh, they paid! I believe it can be pretty expensive. Like 70 to 120 a night. Congress is trying to figure out how to make a stay a reasonable price, yet still allow for people to make a living. Camping can be very inexpensive though!!

Many Glacier is an historic hotel. It is in some disrepair, but I can attest to its beauty. Its resturant has tasty trout and berry desserts. The view is stunning of Many Glacier Lake. The Swiftcurrent Inn, where I stayed, has an AMAZING view of the mountain to the left, pictured. I woke up for my hike and could not believe the sunrise was so pretty!! Both have more than adequate lodgings, and if you went to this park to see the interior of a hotel room, anyways, you are silly!!

Theme: Campground

Comparison: more expensive than average

Directions: Near the Swiftcurrent Lake and Many Glacier Lake. Go to Many Glacier Entrance and proceed from there. See map at http://www.nps.gov/glac/ppmaps/glacmap%2Epdf

	This is McDonald Lodge near... Tip Rating:

By JudyinPA on August 25, 2002

by JudyinPA

This is McDonald Lodge near the western entrance to Glacier. It is over a hundred years old with huge plank floor boards that creak as you walk across. I watched as 6 men carried a mammoth log to the fireplace for heating the entrance. It must have burned all day. The lodge has several rooms and also cabins along the lake if you prefer. Just to sit on the porch and watch the birds and water was such a tranquil experience. We all need to do that when traveling.
