Glacier Glamp Stargazer Tube Tent

Come experience the most unique stay on this side of Glacier National Park in our one and only Stargazer Tube Tent. This "tent" is a concrete cylinder transformed into a glamping cabin - outfitted with a plush memory foam RV queen mattress, high-quality linens, and a fluffy comforter to ensure you have a peaceful night's sleep in the Montana wilderness. It's basically a hobbit house! It has two round windows and a portal window for all-around views of the forest, sky, and mountains. During the cold months, we supply a small electric space heater, and in the summer, a small fan. There is also an outlet for charging. A picnic table and fire ring are available on site, as well as the coolest vault toilet you'll ever see. Be prepared to fall asleep in view of a million stars and wake to bird song.

No need to be fearful of bears and wildlife - this "tent" offers a haven for you.

We are located only 7 miles from Glacier National Park on 37 acres of private property, which includes several ponds, a creek, meadows, and hiking trails,s as well as our other HipCamp tenting sites that you can check out at Glacier HipCamp.

Getting into GNP:

For the 2026 season, Glacier National Park has discontinued the vehicle reservation system, allowing visitors to enter through any gate at any time with a valid park entrance pass. To manage congestion, Logan Pass enforces a three-hour parking limit from July 1 through September 7, 2026, which requires displaying a free, timestamped permit from a kiosk on your dashboard at all times. For those planning longer activities, a ticketed express shuttle is available from select locations for a $1 processing fee on Recreation.gov, with tickets released 60 days in advance and daily at 7:00 PM MDT. While entry is generally open, park rangers may implement temporary closures or traffic diversions if areas reach capacity; in such cases, holders of lodging, camping, or guided activity reservations may still be granted entry. To avoid potential turnaways during these peak times, visiting before 6:00 AM or after 3:00 PM is recommended, noting that the park shuttle will not provide service to Avalanche Lake or the Trail of the Cedars in 2026.

Campfires/Firewood:

This site has its own fire ring. Firewood is available at Sam & Molly's Mercantile outside of our house. Firewood is $7 per bucket (please return bucket), and firestarters are $1 a piece. Campfires should be kept to a small, safe size - please put them fully out before turning in for the night and never scatter the cinders/partially burned logs outside of the pit. We will post if there is a local fire ban instated at any point - please feel free to message us and ask about fire updates.

Pond:

We do allow fishing (they are sun-fish and can be caught from shore), and boating/paddle boards are provided. Please wear life vests when out on the water. Swimming is not recommended since it has lily pads for most of the summer. There is a good swimming hole just down the road near Hungry Horse Dam called Lion Lake, and also good swimming at Lake McDonald in GNP.

Bears:

We ask our campers to be "bear aware" - keep your food and trash in enclosed vehicles. Never keep food or eat in your tent. We ask campers to "pack in and pack out" your trash - see closest dump in info below. We do provide bear spray rental ($5 per spray, per day) located at Sam and Molly's Mercantile. If you want to buy a bear spray from us, or if you forget to put your rental back before you leave, please contact us, and we can charge $30. Yes, we do have bears that sometimes saunter by - usually we have a few black bears each summer. It is rare to spot one, but if you do, please message us and let us know! We will also keep campers aware if a bear has been seen recently on the property.

Cell Service:

Verizon and AT&T cell service is available here - phone calls and texts work well, but the internet is very limited and sporadic, especially in the peak season. WiFi is available in the Gazebo. The password is 123Goats, and the wifi network is TeaTime

Location, Services, and Attractions:

The property is located 6 miles from the Glacier Park entrance and is near HWY 2. Access is via the Old HWY 2. Because of the proximity to Glacier National Park and the main highway, traffic and train noise can be heard at the campsites.

Visitors are asked to keep their speed to a minimum to reduce dust on the dirt road.

We are just a short bike ride away (two minutes by car) from attractions such as the Whiskey Barn, Josephine’s Speak Easy, Glacier Hi-Line Ropes Course, Glacier Grill Restaurant, and the Amazing Fun Center, maze, and mini golf. It also has easy access to the Gateway to Glacier Bike path. There are also E-bike rentals nearby.

There is a freshwater spring where you can fill up containers of water in Bad Rock Canyon (between Columbia Falls and Hungry Horse on the way here... 10 min away from us). Look for the large pull-off areas between the river and the rock canyon walls and a white pipe coming out of the rock. We've personally filled up at this spring for years!

The closest gas station is the Cenex in Coram (1.5 mi away).

The closest public (free) landfill dump is 2.2 miles toward Columbia Falls at 9626 US Highway 2 E., near Paul Bunyan Bar and Grill (which is also a good restaurant near us). Look for the gated entry and small sign marking Flathead Landfill.

The closest grocery is in Hungry Horse at Canyon Foods Grocery (3.5 miles away). They have a laundromat next to this store.

Closest dump and water fill up for a vehicle with a holding tank is Mike's Conoco at 1645 9th St W in Columbia Falls (8.9 mi away).
The closest town with wifi, cafes, restaurants, urgent care, and larger grocery stores is Columbia Falls (9 miles away).

Showers:

We do not have standard shower facilities. We do, however, have a "forest shower" where you can use solar shower bags. Bring your own bag or buy one here for $10.

Complementary EV charger available, contact us to use.
