The population was 288 at the 2010 census. Originally known as Sunnyside, the town was renamed in the 1890s.〔Capace, N. (2000) ''Encyclopedia of Montana.'' North American Book Dist LLC. p 212.〕 == History == Founded in the 1870s, the present-day site of Clyde Park was originally founded as Sunnyside by Texas cattlemen who were attracted to the area for grazing their herds. The post office in Sunnyside was established in 1887.〔Aarstad, R., Arguimabau, E., Baumler, E., et al. (2009) ''Montana Place Names: From Alzada to Zortman.''Montana Historical Society. p 50.〕 In 1887, a post office called Clyde Park was established at the historic Harvey and Tregloan Ranch, where John Harvey owned a Clydesdale horse which he had imported from England in the late 1890s.〔〔Jiusto, C., Brown, C., and Ferris, T. (2012) ''Hand Raised: The Barns of Montana.'' Montana Historical Society. p 240.〕 A stagecoach from Livingston, Montana, reached the town in the 1880s.〔Jewell, J. and McRae, W.C. (2012) ''Moon Montana''. Avalon Travel. p 360.〕 In 1901, the Clyde Park post office was merged with Sunnyside, and the town was renamed Clyde Park. However, the reason is unclear. Another source suggests that the town was called Clyde Park in honor of Clyde Durand, a local rancher; or for Harvey's Clydesdale horse.〔 The Harvey and Tregloan Ranch eventually was sold to Robert Shiplet. The present-day Shiplet Ranch has historic barns that date to the 1870s or 80s, and its livestock brand is notably the shape of Montana.〔 In 1909 the Northern Pacific Railway established a branch line to the town, and in 1912 it incorporated as Clyde Park. That year it was reported to have a bank, a newspaper, a creamery, and an elevator.〔(1912) ''Montana.'' Bureau of Agriculture, Labor and Industry Department of Publicity. p 261.〕 A major fire burned much of the town in 1919.〔 Today, Clyde Park is the home of the G Bar M Ranch, a 3,200-acre dude ranch that opened in 1934. The ranch itself dates back to 1900.〔Rowles, G. (2011) ''Montana Adventure Guide''. Hunter Publishing. p 183.〕 The town is also home to the Old Settler's Days, an annual celebration of pioneer history. It includes an art show, parade, and more.〔(2010) ''Fodor's Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.''
