Traverse epic, glacier-carved valleys, and humbling mountain peaks while RV camping near Whitefish.
Set between the Flathead and Kootenai national forests in northwestern Montana, Whitefish offers year-round opportunities for RV campers to explore mountains, forests, valleys, and freshwater lakes. To the east of town, past the small communities of Coram and West Glacier, is Glacier National Park, where RV resorts—several with full hookups for electricity and water, plus restrooms and wifi—serve as base camps for taking in vistas of alpine meadows, mountains, and valleys. To find lakeside RV camping suitable for big rigs and trailers, head further south past Kalispell and Bigfork to Flathead Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake in the western U.S., where swimming, boating, and fishing are allowed. Whitefish Lake State Park also has a few smaller RV sites ideal for campervans. Winter gets below freezing, but many RV parks in the region remain open, some with reduced amenities.
