Jim & Mary's RV Park - Missoula, Montana

Glacier National Park Road Trip (Fall 2022)
September 20-21, 2022
Columbia Falls to Missoula, Montana
Daily Mileage: 135
Site: F10
Duration: 2 nights 
Cost: $60/night
Weather: Sunny, windy & warm

We love making new friends while traveling! We met Karen and Bryan (from Vermont) while camping at West Glacier RV Park, and sat around the campfire, swapping stories for five hours one night. Met up again for lunch at Tamarack Brewing Company in Lakeside a week later. Hope our paths cross again!


Yum!

The drive south to Missoula on Hwy. 93 was gorgeous. Flathead Lake (particularly Polson) looks like a great place to visit, if we're ever back in the area.

This rest area reminds me of the Sandhills in Nebraska (without the huge mountain range in the east, of course!).





We had no trouble finding Jim & Mary's RV Park, which is off Hwy. 93 on the outskirts of Missoula. The park is quite lovely with beautiful landscaping throughout. There are tall pine trees, expansive areas of grass, as well as perennial gardens and pots overflowing with annuals. The park offers full hook-ups, spacious level sites, picnic tables, free showers, laundry, and WiFi (which was slow, but we had 4 bars on Verizon and 3 bars on T-Mobile). The interior sites have full shade, which would be nice during the summer heat. We heard a nearby train, but it wasn't too noisy, and the road noise became white noise during the night. We would return to this RV park, if we're in the area again.

    1. Thanks so much, Helen! We're wrapping up our current trip, and it will be fun to start going through all of my photos for a new travel journal on my blog.

  2. Yeah we stopped at Flathead Lake and Polson when I had my knee surgery years ago. Beautiful. I hope to go there again ... but without the surgery. LOL. Pretty lake.
