About

Lost Johnny Point Campground is situated on the west shore of Hungry Horse Reservoir, high in the Rocky Mountains west of the Continental Divide and approximately 18 miles southwest of the West Glacier entrance to Glacier National Park. The campground features 21 sites, with 12 available for advance reservation and 9 first-come, first-served sites. A concrete boat ramp with 10-place trailer parking provides direct access to the massive 27,750-acre reservoir. The reservoir was created by Hungry Horse Dam, the 10th highest dam in the United States, which provides a stunning backdrop to the campground. Boating is extremely popular on the reservoir, and anglers can expect to catch cutthroat trout and other species. Swimming is also a popular activity during summer months. The surrounding Flathead National Forest is home to lynx, grizzly bears, and bull trout, making it a premiere destination for wildlife viewing. Visitors can enjoy hiking, biking, and sightseeing in this spectacular mountain setting. The campground is accessible via paved Forest Road #895, reached by turning off U.S. Highway 2 at milepost 144 and traveling across Hungry Horse Dam, then 6 miles south.

Directions

Turn off U.S. Highway 2 at milepost 144 and follow the West Side Hungry Horse Reservoir Road (Forest Road #895) across the Hungry Horse Dam. The campground is 6 miles south of the Dam. The road is paved to the site.
