Thank you, I’ve chosen my campgrounds, but can’t get reservations until 4 days before. Yikes! Is that the only way to get reservations to the in-house campgrounds I listed? Do I need to choose backup campgrounds and get them reserved in case there are no openings in the in-house campgrounds? Seems like a lot of unnecessary work. What am I missing?

From the national parks service web page:
"Reservations
Campsites become reservable on a rolling basis, 6 months in advance from the date you want to book your stay. New in 2023, a certain number of sites will be reservable up to 4 days before the desired date."
Most sites can be booked 6 months in advance, some sites can be booked 4 days in advance. Get on line in February at recreation.gov.

If you are not hikers, why Glacier? It is one of the few NPs where it seems every visitor comes to hike. Even little kids are miles up on the trails.
St Mary's CG is not an especially scenic area. You might want to consider alternative areas outside of Glacier.

Glacier is beautiful , Everybody is different, we've been to glacier 3 times, and are not serious hikers, but there are some great easy to moderate hikes, we've enjoyed ourselves every time there. Even without a lot of hiking.
