What a great place for a hike! Beautiful scenery, lots of hills and valleys, wildlife, you name it, it has it. Several different trails to chose from, from short to long. We went on Labor Day and expected it to be packed but it wasn't. Just us and our 2 dogs.
This is not a 'free' hike. You will need to have a yearly pass, $30, or a one time payment of $5. Easy to do with the online payment.
The trails were marked, but you had to look for the markers. Not always easy to see and we did get off trail a couple of times, but nothing serious, just needed to pay more attention.
The dogs loved the walk as did we. One of our dogs was very happy there was lake access. She had to have a quick dip.
Overall, I highly recommend giving this a try. And if you have before, go back again. I know we will.
Show morePerfect wedding venue! So thankful we booked Glacier Hills County Park for our wedding. We chose the weekend rental package so our family and friends could stay in the cabins on site. The hall and chapel were absolutely fantastic and the staff (Krystal) was so helpful. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and the park has the BEST photo spots for those wedding photos!
Show moreNice campsite. The cabin was well insulated. Beds were comfortable. I liked that the site provided a space heater and a box fan. There were tension rods in the windows with curtains 5/2025. Bathrooms/ showers were decent. Trails were great!
There were a few things that could use improvement/ worth noting
- the trail had plenty of signs, but the posted map didn’t match the electronic map available via QR code.
- The water fountain near the men’s bathroom wasn’t hooked up to anything/ didn’t work. 5/2025
- The door leading to the women’s bathroom was challenging to open.
- The toilets are low-flow, so every day I went in there, there were remnants of toilet paper and urine chilling out. They have a handwritten note explaining…
Last day we were there (a Sunday) none of the toilets in the women’s bathroom flushed.
New campers showed up ( a Saturday) and peed all over the port-a-john seat😑 which is not the campsite’s fault.
Some people had their dogs off leash while walking.
Show moreI have a state park yearly pass, which doesnt seem to apply here, so i had to pay $5. I took a hike on the black marker trail. It definitely is more hilly than other trails, but fine with me. The lake looks nice, but didnt get to see much as part of the trails. It didnt seem like there was a beach, just a place to enter the water in a canoe. I had bug spray, but some sections of the trail i was getting attacked pretty bad so i rushed through it. I could also hear gun shots for most of the time probably a nearby range. There was an extremely nice part of the trail with really high trees and no bugs. That made it worth it. Not many people around was nice too.
