Located approximately one half mile west of the park boundary, near the town of St. Mary, there is easy access to fuel, restaurants, and grocery store. Activities such as interpretive programs, book sales, and shuttle service tours are located at the nearby St. Mary Visitor Center.

Camping spots are sparsely shaded, but expect breezes in the spring and summer to keep you cool. Some sections are shaded by aspen. What it lacks in shade it makes up for in views of picturesque mountains, especially at sunset.
