Lid Creek Campground is nestled along the west shore of the sprawling Hungry Horse Reservoir in northwestern Montana's Flathead National Forest. Located about 15 miles south of Hungry Horse and near Martin City, the campground enjoys a serene setting amidst mixed conifer forests at an elevation of roughly 3,600 feet. Its proximity to the Rocky Mountains and the Continental Divide offers dramatic mountain vistas and a tranquil natural atmosphere that draws outdoor enthusiasts year-round. The campground's location within this pristine wilderness area supplies visitors with opportunities to explore Montana's unique flora and fauna, including huckleberry bushes and wildlife such as lynx and grizzly bears.
The campground features 23 tent and RV sites, each equipped with picnic tables and fire grates for campfires. While there is no potable water onsite, nearby facilities provide water access, and a native boat ramp encourages small watercraft use on the vast 27,750-acre reservoir. These natural surroundings make Lid Creek ideal for fishing, hiking, and boating adventures, complemented by access to nearby biking and walking trails. The area's calm and rustic vibe offers visitors a chance to disconnect and immerse themselves in Montana's rugged beauty, just a short drive from Glacier National Park's west entrance.
