Buffalo Bob's
Buffalo Bob's Pizza Place and Family Fun Center is located on the campground and is a full service restaurant serving pizza, sandwiches, snacks, pasta and daily specials. It also has a beer and wine license for the convenience of its guests. There is an adult dining area that seats one hundred people and a family fun center and game room that seats 350 people. This facility is a great place for family reunions or group rallies. If your camping trip is interrupted by rainy weather, you can still have fun indoors. The facility also houses the campground indoor/outdoor swimming pool so the kids can even swim when it's raining outside.
Adult Activities
In addition to the two swimming pools, there is a large outdoor hot tub that is designated for the exclusive use of adults. All campsites have a fire ring so you can set around the campfire while the kids are out enjoying their activities. The restaurant has an adult area that serves beer and wine and is a quiet area separate from the game room and swimming pool. We also rent bicycles for adults and the thirty-three Acre campground has many quiet trails great for a stroll in the evening. There is a store with a selection of convenience foods, beer, wine, and many made in Montana gifts. There are several data ports so you can check out the Internet or pick up your e-mail. Want something more active? Try out your skill by challenging someone to a game of horseshoes or take your kids on in a game of miniature golf. If the weather isn't great for outdoor activities or in the evening try your hand at one of the many board games available in the huge game room or watch some TV in the adult section of the restaurant.
Glacier National Park
There are many ways to see the spectacular beauty of outstanding Glacier National Park. Plan to use us as your base camp while you explore the many wonders of the area. One of the most awesome drives in America is along the Going to the Sun Highway. You may take your own car or van over the highway or we can arrange for you to take a trip over the top in one of the historical "red jammer" tour buses that have been rebuilt and went back into operation in the summer of 2002.
For a more personal trip, we can rent you an automobile. While the Going to the Sun Highway is open to personal cars, it is closed to any vehicle over twenty-six feet in length, so leave your motor home or trailer with us while you explore this one of a kind highway. There are more than fifty hiking trails in Glacier National Park. The staff at KOA has hiked most of them and can help you plan any type of hiking adventure from an easy stroll, to hikes of whatever level of difficulty you desire. There are even wheelchair accessible trails in the park. The KOA can provide you with not only information, but will be happy to prepare a lunch for you to take on the trail along with any necessities you may have left at home. We can also arrange a guided trip if you prefer.
Still, there are other ways to enjoy Glacier National Park ranging from airplane or helicopter trips over the park, to a whitewater rafting trip down the outer boundary of the park. We will be happy to arrange any of these activities for you.
National Park Service - Glacier National Park
Bob Marshall Wilderness Area
As if Glacier National Park wasn't enough, we are situated only a few miles from the Bob Marshall Wilderness Area. Still using the KOA as your base camp, you can hike, fish and explore this world famous wilderness area. In the late summer, people gather from miles around to pick wild huckleberries, a famous specialty of this region. You don't need a license or any special equipment, just help yourself to nature's bounty. We'll be glad to point you in the right direction and explain how to find them.
Flathead National Forest
If you still haven't had enough of nature while hiking in Glacier National Park and the Bob Marshall Wilderness area, we also have a tremendous amount of National Forest land with even more hiking trails. These forests are open to the public and provide a great place to observe wildlife, such as elk, deer, mountain goats and bighorn sheep. You may also come across a flock of wild turkeys or startle a covey of grouse. Sit on a log and watch the pine squirrels search for food or wait for a rabbit to hop in front of you. Listen to the song of many different types of birds and keep an eye open for a glimpse of a bald eagle. These forests are also a great place to search for our much-treasured huckleberries or a quiet stream for some fly-fishing.
