Rate is Golden Age with electric. This is a National Forest CG in the Gallatin National Forest. Nice campground just 4 miles from West Yellowstone, MT, which has full services and many things to do. Campground is only 5 miles from West Entrance to Yellowstone NP. 33 sites have electric. Several sites along Madison River without electric. Adequately spaced sites with lots of trees. Fishing in river. No showers or dump station. Closest dump station is at RV park in town with a fee. Campground is located right along western border of Yellowstone NP. A herd of about 20 bison (females and calves) came right through our site one evening! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Camped four nights on the Madison River between Hebgan Dam and Quake Lake. The owner Jim is one stand up guy, Very helpful. There is a very good cafe which they serve a Mt. size breakfast. The showers and rest rooms were very clean. They also have cabins for rent. This is a very rustic campground which has been in operation since 1949. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

Very small older park. Same remark as other reviews. Why put the sewer 12 inches above the ground ?? Free WiFi was slow and intermittent. Six pull-thrus and the rest are tight back in spaces. West Yellowstone town has all the amenities and is a good base camp to visit Yellowstone Park. I recommend the GPS Virtual Tour (http://virtualtourguide.net/) as it covers all of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

With the Escapees discount, this was $29, a relatively good overnight rate for West Y but the park is pretty bare. Just a gravel corner , with rigs stashed in. Close to quiet end of town, with friendly hosts. Clean bathroom not much used. No laundry. Good cable tv and free wifi. Wish the sewer cap wasn't so high; made dumping tanks a gravity challenge. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very small RV campground. 30 amp hook ups are available. Friendly staff, office is a 5th wheel trailer. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The outstanding feature of this park is that is only a few blocks from the downtown shopping center of the town of West Yellowstone. Price is very reasonable, compared to the KOA a few miles south of the town. Only about 2 blocks is a large bay wash rack, can accommodate medium sized RV's. Has nearby restaurants. Would use the site again to visit Yellowstone National Park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

New manager rude and deceitful. Sites vary in price according to managers whims. Electricity goes from 90 volts to 100 volts.Sites are not kept up well, they are muddy and uneven, no fire rings and no picnic tables. Laundry is unavailable to campers between 7am and 4pm because the staff uses the one washer and dryer to clean the motel linen. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a lovely park, with great friendly staff. General store has all your needs in case you forgot something. It's the view that will make you want to extend your stay. The lake is full of trout and the sunsets are divine........but then of course this is Montana. Snow is melting rapidly, so there is the odd area of mud which is expected. 18 miles from the Yellowstone west gate which makes for a great day trip or three. The town of West Yellowstone has lots going on with a market, lots of restaurants and all the t-shirt shops and fishing shops you will need. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We really like this Park. Alice's Restaurant is no longer there, but the pizza from the place across the street is excellent. A lot of places close the first of September. There are very nice paths up into the woods. You're only 7 miles from Yellowstone's West entrance. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great park off the beaten path. It's nice and quite with a real kicked back feeling. About 8 miles to West Yellowstone. The sites are large with great views of the surrounding hills and mountains. It is right next to the National Forest, so you can take some real long and enjoyable nature walks. A lot to see and do in the near by area. The staff is real helpful and keeps the grounds clean & looking real good. No cable but you get to put your antenna up for the 4 local stations. The WiFi is real fast. I'd stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Pricy, but the view is beautiful. It is quiet, and peaceful, but it is only about 1/3 filled. Nice grassy sites, but no pool or other family-friendly facilities. Wi-fi is excellent, cable TV is advertised, but not available yet. If you don't have a satellite dish, you only get 1 or 2 channels, and they sometimes are not clear and/or have occasional static. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I agree with the previous rating, we stayed in one of the upgraded sites (not paved), some of the older sites were close together, only a couple of feet between slides. If they are going to upgrade the whole park, it will be even better. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Unable to get a site anywhere within the town of West Yellowstone, we decided to stay here, about 7 miles west of town. The park is located about a mile farther down from the KOA. I must say, it is a pleasant surprise. It's an older campground, quiet and peaceful. Most of the sites are side by side, but it doesn't feel excessively crowded. The playground set is small and needs a coat of paint. There is no pool, but who needs a pool when they've got the sprinklers running! The restrooms are clean and there are two laundries on site. Only $0.75 to dry a whole load. One of the workers shared with me that KOA has bought this campground and there is evidence that they are working on sections of the park, updating the electric boxes and widening the sites. Right now the sites are all grassy with gravel roads, but there are plans to pave the sites. I hope the new construction doesn't interfere with the deer, elk and bison who travel the fields nearby. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The biggest drawback is the 5 mile dirt road into the park. Allow at least 15 minutes for the trip. We stayed in a 24 ft travel trailer and camped right behind the office so I can't comment on how easy it would be to bring a larger trailer into the campground. The staff was exceptionally helpful and nice. All sites have firepits, but bring your own wood or buy some in town. There are numerous sites set up for long term residents (some stay all summer) and they are friendly and willing to give you advice on hot fishing spots. The lake has lots of large (2-4 lb) rainbow and brown trout. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Based on only a couple of reviews we stayed here for a week in July 2008. NEVER AGAIN !!!!!!! First of all the gravel road is 6 miles of the worst road we have ever been on. Most of the way we could only travel at 5 MPH. Seemed to take for ever to go that 6 miles. It's not normal gravel it's some kind of small black stones. Everything inside the trailer was thrown around when we arrived. When we finally arrived we had to maneuver between the office building and a post (and trees) to get into the campground. We had reserved a large lot because we have a 33 foot Jayco Trailer. I couldn't believe how small their lots are. Yes, there's plenty of trees. So many in fact that I defy anyone to drive thru the campground without scraping against the limbs. There's no turn around area. You just have to go back & forth until you finally can get the angle you need. Then there's the problem of finding a place to park your tow vehicle. When leaving we had to jockey around just to get out of the sight. All their roads are dirt ( as are the sites). When it rains it's a mud hole. They sell firewood. Two pieces for a dollar. Don't waste your money because the mosquitoes will eat you alive there. They start before dusk and come out in swarms. There are no lights at night. There's utility poles with street lights on them but they don't turn them on. It's pitch black here at night. Leave your trailer lights on if you plan on returning at night. Rate was $38.25 a night for full hook ups. Better have a 25 foot drain hose because this campground is old and all connections are at the rear of the sites. Campers here were very friendly. There were a lot of seasonal campers, though for the life of me I don't know why anyone would want to drive the long roads to get here daily. They have free Wi-Fi (though it's very slow) and you can get four TV stations. They should be required to remove the name "RESORT" from their ads. This is no resort just an old tired campground. Nothing much for kids to do. Laundry consists of two washers and two dryers. Better get there early!! We will stay at the KOA or at Grizzly RV Park ( in town) next time. We are retired and have camped from Nova Scotia to Texas and this has got to be the poorest experience we've had. Happy trails, We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is our second year in a row staying here heading west after YNP. Again, it met our needs. It will probably not meet your needs especially if your unit is large (over 32' or towing) or you want a "nice" park to be in. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Good location. The sites are narrow with trees on both sides. It took a lot of work so we could use our three slideouts. We had to park our car on the street since it would not fit on the site. I will look for another park next time we visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Don't be fooled by the picture and info on their website. This is just a dumpy gravel parking lot behind a motel. RVs are packed in side by side, and your sewer hookup can be next to the neighbor's front door. Half the pull-thrus are over the sidewalk and only if it's not blocked by street parking. Noisy trucks rumble by at night, and area doesn't look safe. It is fairly close to town and the tourist traps. Bathrooms are clean once, then a mess rest of the day. Forget the laundry room. No host on site and no one from motel office comes over; they don't care. This place gets 2 stars only because it offers "free" wifi and cable tv. Look for a nicer place, avoid this one if you can. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Hey folks, there is a reason this place is almost $20 cheaper than all the other area parks. It met our needs (FHU, cable, and WIFI) perfectly for one night before heading west. As noted, it is small, unappealing, and larger RVs and/or those with toads probably should not even attempt to stay here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Caution here!! Be very careful to get a receipt from the office which is in the Brandin Iron Inn Motel. They told us at check in that we would get a receipt when we checked out but the manager, Karen, said our bill would be $86.13. When I went to check out the young man working that morning ran my card again. After we had moved on to the next town I checked my bank account online and found I had also been charged in a separate charge for $114.00. After many phone calls to the office talking to Karen, the manager, and other clerks, I still have no assurance that they will take actions to correct their mistake. Now I have my bank working on it to dispute this erroneous charge. I would never stay there again. There's a much prettier park just 8 miles west of West Yellowstone on highway 287. It's right on a lake. Wish we had seen it first but we came into town on a different highway. I believe this park nice park is called Yellowstone Holiday. Anyhow always get a receipt when you pay your bill at check in--painful lesson learned here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A small dumpy, dirty, heavily wooded park. Don't expect to use your satellite TV. We were there the first week they had their Wi-Fi hooked up. It didn't work unless you were parked right next to the antenna. On the plus side, it's relatively inexpensive, small, and quiet. It's one of four parks in town. We moved across town after one day. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground suited our need. We’re fulltimers so we have stayed in many, many campgrounds through out the country. This wasn’t the best we’ve ever stayed at, but it’s far better than the worst. We weren't looking for anything in the way of atmosphere or amenities as we had planned to spend as much time as possible in Yellowstone. As noted in the previous review, a neighbors sewer line was very near our motorhome’s steps. We found the staff at the motel friendly and accommodating. One saving grace was the free breakfast served at the motel and campground. Quick and easy. Nothing fancy, but it was a welcome change from fixing our own or looking for a restaurant. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for a week. For an older campground it was pretty darn nice. The sites were gravel,but very level and had a decent amount of room. There were trees between sites and every site had a picnic table. The bathrooms and laundry were very clean and the staff was sure they stayed that way. The small family run campground had a very nice staff that was eager to help with any questions or problems. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

After our horrible experience at Yellowstone Holiday RV Campground, I contacted Rustic Wagon via email. It was after hours, but a member of the family who owns the campground called me bright and early the very next morning. They had a spot for us, so we reserved a place for two nights. They said checkout time was at 11:00am, and we could come any time after that. However, we got out of the other park early and decided to stop in at Rustic Wagon to see if we could check in early. We were in luck. The spot was open, and they let us move right in. The campground is just on the edge of town, so it was peaceful and quiet. However, be sure to take bug spray because the mosquitos were quite thick, no matter what time of day. The showers and laundry room were clean, the staff was friendly, and we were extremely happy to be in a park where you are treated like a customer should be treated. We definitely recommend this RV park. The family members we met were all very nice and accommodating. The park was shady and quiet. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

As a base for a visit to Yellowstone NP, this is about as good as any RV park in the area. Rates are competitive, but hardly a bargain. Park was clean with many trees. Sites and roads were gravel and level. Pull through site was at the back of the park and easy to get in and out of with our 42' rig. WIFI is a paid service, and not very reliable for the price -- we were very disappointed with the service. Takes checks or cash only, no credit cards. We camped here in a Motorhome.

As per other reviews, restrooms were clean. Also laundry facility was well kept and modern equipment. Sites are level and gravel, and close together, but there is at least a tree and table between each site. Off of the main roads, so park is quiet at night. Just enough lighting at night and not over lit. I didn't use Wi-Fi, it was over $10 / day. There was free cable and it had plenty of options. Owners were very accommodating, but often you had to go find them. It is conveniently located on the edge of town where there is gas and food. It is a good base camp for enjoying the park. It could use some grass and a fence in the back. There are some neighbors with big dogs that run around the back edge of the park. Would probably stay at Grizzly if I return.

We stayed in this park on our way to visit family. We're only staying 1 night. The sites are narrow but adequate. We couldn't get one of our slides out due to the trees. We think the park is gravel under the snow. There was no water service while we were here due to the snow and cold. It's probably a pretty nice place during the warm season. We got a satellite signal in Site #5, I don't know about the other sites as there are lots of trees. We think it's very over priced considering we're only getting electrical service, however, it's the only game in town this time of the year so they've gotcha. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Restrooms & showers were clean. Hot water, shower stalls and dressing area adequate (nice if bigger). The site is level with gravel. Trees between site. Whole park is gravel and between city streets. Sites are not over large but we have enough room with a picnic table. Internet available for a price. We had an air card (AT&T). It was very slow but the library has free Wifi. Motorcycles and noisy truck early morning. Park has lights but not over lit. Owners are nice, seem to be trying to make it a good park. It is in town and looks a little more spacious than the other in town parks. We stayed nine days because we couldn't get reservations in Yellowstone National Park. We'll be moving back over in a couple of days. It would probably work as well to stay here as in the park except you would be a long way from ranger night programs and have to get up early for ranger morning programs. National Park speed limits are max of 45 and you have to go a minimum of 15 miles just to get to the first area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The best thing about this park is the location. It is only a few blocks from the west entrance to Yellowstone which is what we came to see. The park has the basics...full hookups including cable TV. Wifi at the site would cost $10 a day...pretty pricey for that. But there are internet cafes in town. We had a Verizon air card which worked just fine here. We had site 19 which was plenty long enough for our 31 foot motorhome and our toad. There were very tall evergreen trees around our site which shaded our rig. Would not be able to open our awning due to large trees, however. The view toward the back of the park is not so nice since there are old trailers next door, but we just looked the other way. The park is gravel and so are the sites. They appear to be quite level and all utilities work just fine. Ken, the manager, lives on site and is very helpful. Although the price seems high, it is actually low for the area at this time of year We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Since we would be spending 2 nights in West Yellowstone, we decided to give this park a try. Our most recent stops in town have been just overnighters and we were satisfied with Pony Express. This is a more spacious(long, but narrow sites) and attractive (lots of evergreen trees between the sites) park. Although its' cable selection includes some premium channels, it is only 40 channels and lacks some our preferred selections. We were told that WIFI was not available in the park but you could get it at a coffee shop 1/2 block away. We may try Rustic Wagon next time. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Would have a higher rating here, since there are plenty of positives about the park, but for the price, it should be even better. It's West Yellowstone, not Aspen or Jackson Hole. Some back-ins are right on the street and over the sidewalk. Most sites are narrow but in the trees for welcome shade. Clean bathrooms & laundry room. Best of all is the great cable TV with HBO and Showtime. The owner Ken is very nice and on the site. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice campground with lots of trees. It's location is terrific. There aren't a lot of campgrounds in West Yellowstone, but we found this one to be the best. Ken, the manager, is a terrific tour guide and very knowledgeable of Yellowstone National Park. Pets are only allowed on the RV sites, but not in the tent sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.

What a pleasant suprise this park turned out to be! The manager of the park is a super friendly guy with wonderful information about the West Yellowstone area. The bathrooms and showers here are sparkling clean. They have a wonderful little game room for the kids. We were in a 26 foot travel trailer and we had no problem with the size of the site, but I can see how they might be tight for bigger rigs with slideouts. Overall this is a great campground with a warm, family friendly atmosphere. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The helpfulness of Ken outweighed the fact that this is a very small park. It is conveniently located in town. The owners did everything they could to make our stay wonderful. We would definitely stay here again. We had 50 amp service and cable, so we were happy campers. And the price was reasonable for this town. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Hospitality! Hospitality! Hospitality! This was the best choice in West Yellowstone for us. Our entire family met at the park for 5 days. We rented 2 pull-through's, one cabin & an on-site RV. The shower's were squeaky clean. The laundry room was clean and there were 6 washer's & 6 dryers. The #5 cabin had a queen bed and also was very clean. The game room was a favorite for the kids. The owner was easily accessable and had great tips about where to fish and shop. Quiet hours were enforced. We forgot our coaxial cable and our bbq wasn't adequate but the owner helped us right out by loaning us the items from the park. It was a very enjoyable stay. The sites were slightly skinny but in spite of that we would definitely choose this park over any other we drove by in West Yellowstone. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I am not sure where all the other reviewers stayed, but obviously my experience was different. We made our reservation for a pull through, over six months in advance and were given a small back in space. It would have required a 45 foot sewer hose to connect, so we did without and had to use the dump. Staff was very pushy and uncaring about their mistakes. Only game in town, so I guess they don't have to care. Restrooms in outer buildings were not clean. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice RV park. Interior roads are wide and paved as are the patio areas at the sites. Staff was very friendly and helpful when needed. RV repairs and propane can be easily found in town. Park is very well laid out for large rigs, clean and well maintained. We had a standard pull-through at the end of a row with a large grass area for the dog. Site was wide and level with stable power. Great location for exploring Yellowstone NP and when you get back to your site you can walk to town for shopping and restaurants. Pet friendly park with nice areas in the national forest to walk your dog. For the price you pay you only get 15 minutes of Wi-Fi, additional 2 ½ days costs $9, signal was strong for the 3 days we were here. Cable TV reception was not that great with some network signals very intermittent. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I have heard good comments about this park so we stayed here for 2 days. We paid $4.00 for wi-fi that was supposed to be for a day. Not quite. Wi-fi is included in the price for the more expensive sites. Our site was a back in, which we found out is not a premium site. We had a hard time backing in, as there was a restroom directly in front of us. The grass was worn out and should have been cement in it's place. The site was so short we could not park our tow in the site. The overflow space was not close. The site could have been enlarged to accommadate the parking of a tow. While I was using the laundry room, another guest brought their dog inside the building; apparently that is allowed. This park does not provide propane fill up, which we needed. Staff was friendly, however I could have used more information about the park instead of hearing about the sale of items in the office. We only stayed in this park so we could catch up on laundry and cleaning as we spent more than a week "dry camping". I really don't see where this park is so great. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is very convenient to downtown West Yellowstone. The spaces are larger than many commercial RV parks. It is located on the edge of town and surrounded by National Forest land on two sides. It is in the mid to high price range for West Yellowstone. The free Wi-Fi through Nomadisp did not work any better than many of the free systems at other RV Parks. The signal fluctuated from excellent to poor often and the internet connection was also lost momentarily on numerous occasions. Some channels were not very clear on the cable TV.

This was a very nice park, close to town and only 4 blocks from the west entrance to Yellowstone. The bathrooms were spotless and the staff was pleasant and helpful. The only negative was the mosquito's. They were awful and would literally chase you when you were outside. It would be nice if they sprayed for the mosquito's. The laundry room was rather expensive but the showers were free and they had free coffee every morning so that offset the price of laundry. I would definitively stay here again.

We had quite a different experience than the other reviewer of this RV Park. The staff was VERY friendly when we checked in and things seemed really organized. When we checked out, we had needed a tool to fix a problem with the coach and they sent somebody right out - he ended up fixing the issue for us. We "splurged" for a premium site and it was very nice and worth the money. The Wi-Fi worked well, the place was clean and up to date, and the location was really convenient to the West Yellowstone park entrance (important to us since we just had our Vespa). The park is also within walking distance of the town. We were surprised that this town was bigger than we thought - lots of restaurants, stores, etc. It didn't hurt that the weather was spectacular when we were there. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We are fulltimers and have traveled to more than 300 parks across the USA, Canada and Mexico in the past 10 years and have NEVER been treated with such disrespect and arrogance. My wife was verbally abused by the front desk clerk and when I went to try to resolve the issue he threatened me. My wife and I were put in spot #240, which was nice but covered with cigarette butts and dirty. We experienced WIFI login problems and needed a new pass code. We called the office which is a bit of a walk from our site and I am currently recovering from heart surgery. Even with that, the clerk insisted that we come to the office to receive our pass code that should have been given to us upon check in, but he said he did not trust who we were on the phone and hung up on my wife. When we went to the office he lied by not admitting who he actually was and claimed my wife "cussed at him". He then slid out of the office. We went back to speak to the manager and the clerk called 911 and said "We were bad examples of RVers" after I told him he was an awful representative of the park. No manager was made available to speak to us in person or by phone. All we wanted was an internet pass code which we paid for at registration. We left the next morning sorry that we did not stay at one of the many other nice parks available in the area. This park was very convenient in it's location, but I would advise anyone to read all the reviews posted on RV Park Reviews prior to making a reservation. The people who work here appear to be bitter and arrogant and do not give you all the facts until after you have arrived and paid. They were all down right NASTY. We have never had such an experience. Because of the location they think the guests can be treated with no manners or courtesy. We also found that the laundries have NO change machines, requiring another walk to the office and the dryers produce little heat even though they are new (They are set so it costs you several dollars to dry one load of sheets and towels). The lawn sprinklers soak everything and barking dogs are not stopped by management at night. The employees we came in contact really ruined our time in West Yellowstone and seem as though they enjoyed our dismay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very large, clean & tidy park; paved or gravel pads with grass between, and sites are relatively spacious for a campground that could definitely pack 'em in if they wanted to. Backins may not be quite long enough for longer rigs to park both RV and tow vehicle/toad on the pad, so many of us squeezed in as best we could. Some backins around edge of park, especially on east & south sides, have nice views of woods, meadows and the Yellowstone plateau. Large, friendly staff; very clean bathhouses & laundry facilities; convenient to the town of West Yellowstone and to YNP itself. One warning (which the campground does tell you about) - automatic sprinklers come on at night and can drench a tent or get water inside open RV windows. Campground loans out buckets to divert the sprinkler flow, but you have to ask for them. Correct food storage principles for bear country are required here. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park was clean and well cared for. We have a 35' 5th wheel and we fit in a back in site (we had to park our truck in the overflow parking though. However, beware of the sprinklers! We had people with us who were staying in a tent (probably one that the previous reviewer complained about!), the park provided us with buckets to cover the sprinkler heads, but they had no idea where the actual heads were. It took three nights for our tent guests to find all the sprinklers that were soaking them every morning! I also spoke with another guest who said that the sprinklers were soaking the under side of his slide. I would bring a LOT of mosquito repellent if you stay here - the mosquitoes were horrendous. That being said, we were actually impressed with the condition of the park and quite satisfied with our stay until our last night. It was evening time and our dogs were barking at people walking by so I was headed out the door to put them away because I didn't want them to disturb other campers. At the same time I was approached by the managers and told that they needed to talk to me about the dogs. I was more than willing. They said that they had some complaints about the dogs barking. I apologized, told them I understood, and that I was trying to take care of the problem at that exact time. They continued to insist that I didn't understand and that I had to do something about the barking. The more I tried to apologize and comply they more the male manager yelled at me, got aggressive, and began to get threatening. This was the first time any of their staff had spoken to me or my family about the dogs barking and I was trying desperately to communicate that I understood and was sorry and wanted to make it better. I left a comment when we left explaining that I felt that I was treated poorly. A couple weeks later I received something in the mail from the park. Instead of an apology it was a copy of another campers comments that said that my dogs had been barking (I never denied that my dogs were barking, just had a problem with how the managers handled the problem). The comments also highlighted another set of dogs that I know were not my dogs, but I believe that I was getting blamed for that as well. Anyway, my issue is not that they were unhappy about my barking dogs (I feel bad that my dogs were barking as they are not usually barkers). The hostile and harassing way I was treated caused me and my family EXTREME distress. It all but ruined my family vacation and I honestly lost sleep over it. Although this was a very clean and well cared for park I would not recommend that anybody stay here. I saw at least two other negative comments about the manager on this site. And as one of them said, "it if can happen to us, it can happen to anybody". I will never stay here again and I will tell everybody I know to stay away. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

A little costly, but worth it when compared to the alternatives in the area. The popularity of this park (full most nights all season) tells you the rates are what the market is willing to pay. Any size rig will fit here, assuming the driver knows how to maneuver it. Only negatives are weak wi-fi and the fact that the park allows tents to be erected in the RV area.

I do agree with the other posts that this place ia way overpriced but it is a nice, well taken care of park located right by the west entrance to Yellowstone.

I would have given a higher rating to this CG but their price prevents me from doing so. While this park is very clean and has nicely laid out sites with good utilities, it is not worth what they charge. We have stayed at many of the premier resorts in the country, and this park charges like they too are in this category, though they are not. I appreciated the nice long pull thru's, nice picnic tables, paved streets and overall location. I just didn't appreciate the over charging. Some advice, bring alot of mosquito spray and do not bother paying for the WiFi service. It's slow and drops out continuously. It's a quiet and very clean park. But their costs overshadow the positives here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We went to this park because of all the great reviews. I don't know if all those people were camping for the very first time and don't know any better or what. I agree with the most recent reviewer. Terribly overpriced. You need to get one of their high end expensive pull thrus if you want to fit. We have a 37' Class A. The Wi-Fi is such a joke, and to actually charge for it is ludicrous. The back in sites are OK if you are shorter than we are, but for the price I would expect to see more space between sites. Kind of close together for this kind of money. It's hard to find decent camping in the Yellowstone area, and I guess that is why people go to this campground, and they must rate it highly because there just isn't a lot else. A rip off. Won't stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Still a nice park but they've gone over the top on pricing. In addition to a steep price they now charge for very poor, weak wi-fi. And, for a park this size in a cold climate, you would think they would have propane but they do not. When we were there they were about one-third empty, some of these vacancies I am sure is due to their new policy of you get less and pay more. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great park and I would have given it a 10 except for the mosquitoes. They water the grass every night which seems to give the mosquitoes a good place to breed. You couldn't be outside without a screen room. Otherwise we loved it. It is within walking distance of the Grizzly/Wolf Discovery Center which I heartily recommend. The pull through sites are long and will handle any size rig. You should have reservations however! The staff is friendly and accommodating. It is also satellite friendly. I would definitely return.

We stayed here for a week in a 31' motorhome. This is the nicest park we have stayed in after using parks in more than 25 states. It is so convenient not only to Yellowstone NP but also within walking distance of town and museums. All of the sites are beautifully landscaped with blacktop picnic table areas and gravel sites. It is surrounded on three sides by National Forest so there is a wonderful area to walk your pets. Very well maintained, free coffee in the am each day ! Definitely recommend it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great park, good sites, helpful staff. It was raining when we arrived and two friendly staff helped me with backing in my 5th wheel. Location is great, close proximity to Yellowstone west gate. Village of West Yellowstone very nice but restaurants seemed pricey. Sites are gravel with adjacent grass area PVC type tables which look like new. Good store with good supply of items and RV needs. Only dislike was the WiFi. For charging the most daily site fees and then to only offer 15 minutes of one-time WiFi time seems almost insulting. Especially when WiFi is becoming so commonplace these days. That's why I gave it a 9. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This really was a nice campground, very clean and friendly staff. The nice big grass area and playground were exactly what my kids needed. We actually skipped out on a day of touring the park because the kids were having fun and needed some downtime. I agree with a previous review, the wifi was insulting. If you have a "premium" site you get the wifi for free, however all sites were pricey and to pay additional irritated me. If we are ever back in West Yellowstone, I think we might try to find a place that is more "campy", if you know what I mean. This was more of an RV resort. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Well, although it’s been years since I’ve been there, I continuously compare these campgrounds to Disney’s Fort Wilderness because that was by far, the best I’ve been to. Grizzly is probably the closest I’ve seen so far. For such a large campground, it was well maintained and the staff couldn’t have been any friendlier. The bathrooms were spotless and although there were several throughout the property, I was a bit skeptical when I saw only 2 showers and 1 toilet in the men’s room. There must be a lot more bathrooms than I thought, because during my stay, I never waited for the toilet or shower. It could have also been that we were the only small trailer in the park and everyone else had facilities on their RV’s, but regardless, there was no waiting. Also, at each bathroom was a kitchen sink that my wife found incredibly useful and much easier than washing pots in the tiny sink in our PUP. Being my first time camping at Yellowstone, I’m not sure if this is a common practice, but you need a code to get into the bathrooms, thus helping to eliminate unauthorized visitors. If for some strange reason you get tired of Yellowstone, West Yellowstone was a surprising little town. Between the IMAX Theater, Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center and shopping, you could easily stay busy for a day outside the park. Although they do roll up the sidewalks at 10:00 PM, you can always catch a midnight snack at the New York Diner, they stay open till 3:00 AM. I strongly recommend the GPS tour of Yellowstone. It’s available at the front desk and just plugs into your cigarette lighter, sticks to your windshield and off you go. If you need help, just ask any one of the friendly staff. The voice prompts give you a private tour of Yellowstone with plenty of information that made our trip even more interesting. There are plenty of tips on often overlooked turn-outs throughout the park and even lets you know when you are approaching an area known for a particular animal. Additionally, there is an option for the GPS to play very soothing music that fits well with the tour. We especially liked the GPS tour we could move at our own pace and if we weren’t interested in a certain attraction, we just didn’t stop, unlike when on a bus tour. It was well worth the $50 for 24 hours. Oh, I finally thought of a negative point here. There’s not much shade, so use your awning or bring an eating tent. Did I mention that the campground is spotless? We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

As a big time dry-camp/boonies camper I expect a lot from any commercial campground I stay at; VERY few live up to my definition of “value for the money”. With that said, Grizzly lived up to all the hype/stellar recommendations on this site. The facility and grounds were about totally immaculate. The absolute epitome of professionalism and helpfulness was shown from the staff each and every time we interacted with them. Few minor negatives that keep me from giving them a “10” are: Some of the equipment in the kids play room was is so-so condition, cable tv reception was a bit fuzzy, and charging for wifi (@ $4 a day) is a bit out of line with what most RV parks offer as a standard amenity nowadays. This park offers the odd combination of being very family friendly, pet friendly, yet also attracts higher end clientele, it’s a great thing. Awesome location, sites, staff, and clean cut/respectful customers make this park the gold standard in my opinion. Would stay here again in a New York minute. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great campground that is close to town and entrance to Yellowstone. We stayed here for three nights. Had a back-in site on the east edge of the campground. Seems to be more crowed on the west side. They have expanded the place since we were there in 2000. It was quieter the last time we were there, but it's still OK. Very friendly staff in the office, always poking jokes. Must try their free capuccino in the morning, thick and creamy! Bought the Huckleberry ice-cream in the store, enjoyed them very much. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A very nice, big rig friendly, park which is well located within walking distance to most of town. While it is clean, neat, and has good sized spots for rigs of all sizes, it is costly for a park with no pool/spa/hot tub. The work campers here are great: both friendly and hard working. Had some work done on my rig by Repairs by O'B: he was great. We will return here, because it has many features we like. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We made a reservation here for arrival on a Saturday. On Friday we were delayed and called to change the reservation to arrive Monday. Because I called at 1:15pm and the policy is that cancellations must be made by 11:00am, they would not accomodate me and charged me one day, $47+ cancellation fee, even though I was not actually cancelling, but rather just delaying my arrival. I talked to the manager, Mark, and he would not vary from the policy and was not very nice. I cancelled all of my reservation and found Valley View RV Park in Island Park with all the amenities that Grizzly has at $13 Passport America. Also, Valley View said that if I needed to change or cancel they would appreciate a call by 6:00pm the previous day. So it actually worked out better except I lost the $47. It probably is a very nice park, but make sure that if you want to change your arrival you call by 11:00am and not 11:01. I certainly wouldn't stay here in the future. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice park. Well kept. Friendly staff. We preferred a back in so we could back up to the national forest. Great dog walk area back there. We are having a little problem fitting our jeep on the site because our sewer hose is about 25' and it needs to be longer on this site so that we can back our 37' rv back further. Cannot believe they charge for the WIFI. It is $4 a day and it is bad, don't waste your money. West Yellowstone is a great town with lots going on and a lot of shops. Very rustic. Love this area. Grizzly is the nicest rv park in the area and we would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

What a wonderful park! This is our kind of camping. The sites were level, patios paved, grass at the sites. The streets were wide, paved and easy to maneuver. The park is well taken care of, the staff very efficient and friendly, and though a bit high price-wise, it is to be expected only 4 blocks from Yellowstone. We would have enjoyed a pool and hot tub and this is our only suggestion. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Came here after a couple nights at Fishing Bridge in Yellowstone. We called this the "Posh" RV resort at the average rigs pulling in were the $250K motorhomes pulling Hummers as toads. There were many tents, 5th wheels and trailers as well, but it was more "upscale." The staff was very friendly, facilities were very clean, and the fresh coffee in the main building was a nice touch. We backed up to the National Forest and had some great mountain bike rides. Cable worked well, and the WiFi worked well. We paid the $4 for a days' worth of access. I didn't really feel like the kids could go out and play - maybe that was just my impression. The staff is constantly patrolling the area, so we were always afraid we were doing something wrong. It's a lovely RV Park, and based on what we saw of the RV parks in West Yellowstone, this one is the ONLY one we would stay at. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Although we share the opinions of others with regard to the facilities offered at this campground, we did not have a good experience with the campground managers. Upon our arrival we were informed that "for some reason" one of their clerks had changed our arrival date to the day before. I had their confirmation letter in hand stating that we were to arrive when we did. They had given away our pull-through site, and told us they had a back-in site available. They wanted us to take the back-in site for the first two days and then move to a pull-through site for our last three days. Once we were settled into the back-in, we did not relish having to pack up and move again in two days. We told the manager that we would prefer to just stay where we were. We were told that we could not, because there was a group of two coming in behind us, and they needed the back-in site for that twosome. The more we thought about this, the more we realized that they were expecting us to interrupt our vacation and take the time to move sites in order to compensate for a mistake THEY had made on our reservation. When my husband told them we would not move, one of the managers told us that if we did not move to the other site in two days we would be asked to leave the campground. Two hours later, both managers visited our motorhome and told us we could stay where we were. This situation caused us a great deal of anxiety. If this happened to us, it can happen to you. Beware. We camped here in a Motorhome.

One of the best parks we have ever stayed in. Sites were of good width for a park this size. Sites were easy to get in and out of with a big rig. Bathrooms and Laundry were immaculate. Had a decent playground for kids and a well stocked store. We enjoyed the Mountain Bike trails that were right next to the park. Staff was very helpful with restaurant recommendations and directions to attractions outside of the RV park. The park was 4 blocks from the west entrance to Yellowstone National Park. The only complaint was that they watered the grass nightly, but considering the drought they are in, green grass was nice to see. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great campground with a convenient location. The grounds are beautiful with paved roads, paved campsites with a grass area at each campsite. Located in the town of West Yellowstone you are close to groceries, restaurants, IMAX theater, and it is only one mile to the west entrance.

Best staff of any campground I've ever stayed at! Park is well laid out and easy to get around and find your site. They have 4 registration lanes separate from the main in/out access, the dump station is also separate from both of the above, which keeps traffic moving well. There seems to be a lot of turnover here so the layout is excellent. There's washers and dryers located in the bathhouses throughout the park, $2 to wash and $.25/10 min to dry. I thought the park was very expensive for what you get, but everything in Yellowstone/West Yellowstone is expensive ($21 for a large pizza for instance, don't be looking for the dollar menu at McD's either). It's a short walk or bicycle ride into town, which is very nice. Be aware, you are only 4 blocks from the entrance to YNP, but it's 14 more miles to the closest visitor's center, so no matter where you're going in YNP, it's a 28 mile round trip to get to the main loop road. All that being said, it's a beautiful campground and the staff is the best. Yellowstone is AWESOME and I would definitely make Grizzly my base camp for my next visit. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This beautiful park is a stone’s throw from the west entrance of Yellowstone National Park. The park is carefully landscaped but surprisingly short of trees among the RV's – not much shade to speak of. We parked in a back-in site (#55) which backed right up to the Gallatin National Forest, perfect neighbors for our 9 night stay. The graveled sites have a nice long patio on the curb side, a separate graveled parking area for tow vehicle and a fairly wide lawn expanse on the street side – amply wide to provide a sense of space and privacy. The park accepts mail for campers, and offers pay WiFi (service by Nomad) with a good signal to our site. No garbage pickup at the site, but our dumpster was nearby. There was no traffic, jet or train noise. No large grocery stores or Wal-mart, but there are two small local markets in West Yellowstone. Between the two markets are a myriad of interesting and eclectic shops selling local artisans ware and wonderful furnishings & clothing. There of lots of dining choices, from sliced to order sandwiches to a sit-down steak house. The town (including a full-service post office) is within easy walking distance from the park. Park is pet friendly and vehicle washing is permitted. This is a nice place to stay while you visit Yellowstone National Park and a bit further (80 miles) to visit Grand Teton National Park. The park is very clean, inviting and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again when southern Montana is on our itinerary. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Like many others have said - a great RV park. Entrance has large lanes to park while registering. Signs that direct you to the park from West Yellowstone are not easy to see, but the town is small and the park is hard to miss. Game room for the kids was great! Showers and laundry room was very clean and well kept. Coffee and TV in the conference room each morning was a nice touch. We didn't make use of the Wi-Fi while we were there. There are sprinkers in parts of the park and you need to remember to cover or put up any lawn chairs or the next morning they will be soaked. The park made for a great base camp while we explored Yellowstone and the surrounding area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is our first time to stay at this park, but will return probably many times and stay much longer. We had only made reservations for 3 nights and were sorry that we had not planned to stay longer. The manicured lawns, the excellent staff, the clean bathrooms as well as the convenience of this park makes it terrific. It is within walking distance to the town of West Yellowstone and can book a tour into Yellowstone National Park if you do not want to drive in yourself. Some people might complained of how much it cost, but I would rather pay a little more and have the opportunity to stay in such a fantastic, well run Park. We will be back!!

Great RV park for adults. No Pool or Jacuzzi. As a destination park in the Montana summer in this price bracket this is a big draw back. Sites are ideal and hookups first rate. Bathrooms spotless. This is NOT the most entertaining park for children after touring Yellowstone all day or a long days travel. Club room is one air hockey table and TV games on one TV. No organized activities at the park. BTW, add resort tax, accommodations tax, sales and use tax to the rate.....You know, as much as I dislike KOA's I would give West Yellowstone KOA a second look if you have children.

As a previous reviewer said, the only reason we do not give this campground a 10 is the pay wi-fi. The campground is so nice that you would expect that they have free wi-fi. However, that is obviously not a factor for everyone since the campground stays full. Beautiful, long sites with plenty of room between RVs. You can wash your RV or car on your site or use a local service to do it for you. There are no shade sites yet because the campground is only ten years old. They have planted many Lodgepole Pines and they are slow growing due to such a short summer, so it will be awhile before the trees provide a lot of shade. We last stayed here in 1999 and the trees were not drastically smaller than now; gives you an idea of how slow they grow. We learned this little tidbit of knowledge from one of the tours of Yellowstone that pick you up at the campground. We have stayed in hundreds of campgrounds since our 1999 stay here and still have not encountered such a friendly and helpful campground staff. There were five motorhomes in our group and virtually all have the same review of the park. We will all come back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I'd give it a 10 except for the $4 a day wi-fi charge. Check at the office for info on the drive-by wash and wax folks - good work, good price, not especially fast, but you're paying by the foot, not the hour. Free AM coffee in the office, expensive laundry (cheaper ones in town). Well run, clean, quiet park (if you don't count the weekend rodeo). We'll stay here again. Reserve early in the summer.

In some 20 years of RV'ing, all over the country, this is the best RV Park we've ever stayed, hands down from every angle. They have beautiful flowers and perfected grass, at the dump stations! The sites are perfectly maintained, paved tow car areas along side many spaces. Its just manicured -- every single spot. Large pull thru's with fantasic access, nice white picnic tables are always clean, 50A service, strong WiFi, beautiful grass areas everywhere, free coffee and café every morning, and on and on. By the way, you could almost through a ball to the entry of Yellowstone Nat'l Park. Our stay happened to be over the 4th of July, and you can sit comfortable right in your space and watch a great fireworks show that the town obviously puts on just to the North/West. As a mention, there is even a nice couple that has an independent local RV washing service that will wash (even wax I'm sure) your RV using non-spoting De-ionized water right in your spot while you visit Yellowstone Park - and it's even less cost than I pay here local at home in Southern CA. Most all of the many of folks that work there are in fact RV'ers themselves, they care, and they understand; management is kind and very attentive. The only thing I could possibly think of that was disappointing at all, was that we couldn't stay longer, much longer. A special Thanks to one of those RV'ing/working couples to whom we owe a great stay too! Enjoy We camped here in a Motorhome.

Extremely nice park. Friendliest staff we have ever encountered anywhere. They bent over backwards to help in any way they could. Were always out cleaning the grounds and filling the "dog poop bag" dispensers. Our only gripe was that you have to pay for wi-fi and we were constantly getting disconnected.

Great place with a few minor problems; the back in sites were a bit short, not enough room to park a tow rig after backing our 32ft 5er as far back as it could go. Other sites also had tow rigs hanging out making backing in a bit tough. WiFi was extra $$$ after first 15 minutes. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the overall campground was very clean and well kept. Access to town and the park was very convenient... We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Our stay at this park was an excellent experience. The park is right outside the west entrance to Yellowstone. There was some construction going on at one end of the park, but it did not cause a problem. Our kids loved the game-room (included a air-hockey table and X-Box games). We absolutely would stay here again! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Well-designed park with lots of room in a beautiful setting. Friendly staff. Good central location in the town of West Yellowstone. They charge for WiFi (it should be free in all parks). There were no paper towels in the restrooms (only hot air dryers - shades of McDonalds). The parking area on the sites is narrow and we got sprinkler water on the coach.

Very clean park with a short drive to the west entrance of Yellowstone N.P. Friendly and accommodating staff. Very clean facilities. Well stocked store. Staff is very knowledgable about local area interests and goes out of their way to help. Had to order a part for my large format camera and the office staff had no problem accepting a UPS package for me, and putting it into their safe until I could pick it up the following day. They allowed me to wash both my pickup truck and trailer myself at the site - it was still early in the season. I would definitely stay there again when in the area, although it was a bit pricey, but what else can one expect for a campground situated that close to the National Park?

Great location. You can walk to anyplace in the town within 5-10 minutes. Only 3 blocks to the entrance to Yellowstone NP. This park is maintained very well. Spotless and well manicured. The staff is super nice and very helpful. It is very quiet, the sites are moderate size but we spent most of our time seeing the NP or this quaint and beautiful little town. You can even wash your rig at your site. This is definately the nicest and best appointed RV park in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stayed here for 11 nights Oct. 2005 and loved it! Minutes to the West entrance of park, next door to the Grizzly & Wolf Discovery Center (you get to hear the wolves every day!)and within a couple of blocks to the town. Mgmt. was tops, park was impeccable, sites accomadating and many are pull through. Laundry facilities scattered through park (so convenient!) and very clean.

Exceptional park! This park is extremely well maintained with paved roads, grass sites with rock RV site. The staff was wonderfully friendly and helpful, and when our neighbor (obviously new 5ver with limited knowledge of functions-took them 15 minutes just to back under and hook up when leaving!) dumped sewage from his black tank onto our lawn (when he threw the sewer hose when disconnecting) and onto his rock pad, they responded immediately and cleaned up the mess and disinfected the entire area (and still smiled?!) Campsite was very quiet except for the wolves howling at night (incredible! They were at the nearby display)and making this a wonderful experience. Despite our lack of reservations, the staff went out of their way to accomodate us and allow us to remain in the same site for 4 nights, juggling other reservations to do so. Rest/shower rooms were limited in size, and had to wait one morning for both shower (2) and single stall toilet, but were sparkling clean and furnished (looked new). Camped here in a 37' MH with toad. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Pretty good campground. I must say the staff is top notch. Friendly, helpful, and they have a very good sense of humor. The grounds are nice with very nice grass. The one downside is they tend to over water the grass. Our site had too much water in the mornings. The place is dog friendly, but they appear to allow dogs to be outside while the owners are away. This isn't good, when you have a yapper out for hours. All in all, a good experience and we plan on returning at some point. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a great place in West Yellowstone. Level sites, lots of grass, tables, playground, good roads. To get a 10, it would need a pool. We used it as an overnight stop before moving into the park for our extended stay. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The store is decent, and if you don't mind a short walk, you can walk less than a mile to the IMAX and the rest of this quaint little tourist town. If you want a nice view, ask for a back in site on the south end of the park, there you have a nice view of the forest instead of other RV's. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

What a great place to stay! The RV Park is less than a half mile to downtown West Yellowstone, MT, with its great shops, wonderful people, and super restaurants. The town even has an IMAX Theater. The west entrance to Yellowstone National Park is less than a mile from the campground, where it is very easy to spend days, weeks, or months exploring. Long, wide sites, with great voltage, great water pressure, a very clean park, and absolutely wonderful views of the Rocky Mountains await you at Yellowstone Grizzly RV Park. Mark & Brenda run a first class operation. All of the employees were very friendly, efficient, and helpful; they have great recommendations for things to do, sites to see, and places to eat.

One of the best parks we've stayed in. It is very convenient to Yellowstone Park. It is easy to walk to town for eating or shopping. This was our second time to stay here. We stayed for 28 days this time and 23 days the first time in 2004. We will be here again sometime. It's closest to the Madison Valley part of Yellowstone which offers lots of wildlife viewing, particularly Bald Eagles, Elk, Bison, Trumpeter Swans, Sandhill Cranes, Coyotes, and a variety of small birds.

This campground is about as good as it gets! We've only been to one place that we have
liked better than this. It is neat and clean and well maintained by a very friendly staff. Although there are trees around the entire campground, they will not provide any real shade for a few more years. It's located right outside the West Entrance to Yellowstone National Park. There is even a mobile RV wash service that comes through the campground nearly everyday. A little more expensive than some and they did some things on our RV that I didn't want or request, but it was a quick and easy way to get rid of some of the road grime. If we ever go back to this area of the country, we will definately make it a point to stay here again! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

that a park of this quality did not have an inside modem connection. You either had to go to an outside payphone, or sit inside the lobby area to the Main

Clean and very friendly campground. Spent two days here after two days in the park, and appreciated the change since we spent the full day in park. Some of the other posters mentioned that the trees were not mature and there was little shade. I agree, however with the elevation of 7,000 feet the temperatures are usually only in the 60's in the daytime and 30's - 40's at night so I kind of liked the additional sunlight. Very convenient, and is walking distance to town, which is also a surprisingly fun place to walk around. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. We camped here in a Motorhome.

When my husband called the park to ask about a reservation, the park employee said the RV park was only a few minutes from the Yellowstone Park entrance. It is actually 15 miles from the park. If you don't mind driving an extra 30 miles a day just to and from the park each day, then this would be okay, but it wasn't okay with us. There are no trees, and no shade. The restrooms and showers are clean, and they have WIFI, but it is spotty and poor reception where we were parked. We reserved a spot for five days and paid for half of it up front. We got there after the office closed, so we were unable to talk with staff until the next morning. The RV park is right next to a state highway. Our camp spot was only 50 feet from the highway, which is traveled by large trucks at all hours of the night. When we asked for a refund the manager further stated that if we didn't like it, we could sue the park and the owner. I replied that I would do more than that--I would tell about my bad experience on the internet and the various social media websites, as well. That was the worst experience I have ever had with a place of business. I have never been screamed at in my life by anyone who claims to be a professional. You don't build a business by treating your paying customers like dirt under your feet. I will never go back there, and I warn you not to pay for more than one or two nights if that's the only place you can find a camp spot, because they will not refund you any money if you pay for a week and leave after only 1 or 2 days. If you are driving a long distance and want to stay in the Yellowstone National Park, reserve a spot outside of the park on the first night of your arrival. After that, go into Yellowstone the next morning and find a camp spot. There are many spots to be had, but they fill up quickly, so get there early. You will save yourself a lot of drive time and mileage by camping inside the park. I personally think the manager needs to attend some anger management classes. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a small park with beautiful scenery. But other than that, it's just a place to park. The WI-FI is very poor. The people across from us left a day early because it is so bad and she needed it in her work. When we checked in we were told that the water at our site didn't work but there was a hose that had been stretched over from the site next to us and we should just connect our hose to that one. Their hose is now leaking at the rate of about 2 gallons an hour. The office was notifed this a.m, 12 hours later, it still hasn't been fixed. We are staying here a week, however, it is our feeling that the price is too high for the service and accomodations provided. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a good place to stay if you plan to put a boat in the lake, but a little too far if you plan to use it for seeing Yellowstone. It is 20 minutes to the west entrance and another 15 minutes to the first main area in Yellowstone. The restrooms and showers were the best I have seen in a long time. Wi-Fi is spotty and we had to ask them to reboot their server several times during a 3 day stay as it frequently was out. Staff is friendly but does not go out of their way to help (laundry closing at 5PM is just one example). Also asked about fishing suggestions and was told to just try different locations and bait ("that is why they call it fishing, not catching") so if you know the lake or have the time to experiment you have to figure out what works on your own. Only a few common firepits available, none near the RV sites. Bring extra bug spray! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a beautiful spot next to Hebgen Lake, with a somewhat long (17 miles), but easy, drive to the west entrance of Yellowstone National Park. It is treeless in the actual campground area, but the view of the lake and the sunset from our site (#27) was lovely. The bathrooms are quite a walk from the eastern (newer) RV section ("couple of blocks"), but are very clean, along with the shower area. The sites are good size, level, with a grassy area around them, and include a concrete pad with a picnic table. Most sites in this section are back-in, but not difficult to maneuver as there is plenty of room to do so. The streets are gravel, and there is relatively little dust. As mentioned by other reviewers, the laundry facility is connected with the office and closes at 5pm, making it difficult to enjoy Yellowstone and do laundry after a day in the Park. And, yes, there are a fair amount of mosquitoes here (not sure if it is the lakeside location, or just the area in general). The Wi-Fi worked very well at our site, but cell phone reception was minimal (Verizon). We would definitely return to this RV park. We camped here five nights. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We chose this park because it was not far from the West entrance to Yellowstone National Park. The added bonus to our choice was that it was a lovely park right on Lake Hebgen. We had a beautiful view of the lake and the mountains from our motorhome. There is a boat ramp, picnic areas and places to fish in the park. The staff was courteous and helpful. There is a restaurant on the property that we understand is very good. No wi-fi but they did have internet service in the office. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was one of the best CG we have ever stayed. Clean, beautiful setting, within a short distance from Yellowstone west entrance. If you want to avoid the crowds of West Yellowstone and yet be close enough, this is the place. Great fishing, boat rentals are reasonable, very friendly people. Cleanest showers and bathrooms i have ever seen. Peaceful. This is one to go back over and over again.

Another great RV park. My 7yr old caught her first fish here! In fact, she caught 6 of them. We enjoyed our stay here. We agree with a previous poster that they need to reconfigure their laundry room so guests have access after the office closes. The problem is most are here to visit Yellowstone park during the day and get back later in the early evening when the office is closed. That makes laundry not available for most. The restrooms were extreemly clean with stainless steel sinks. The showers were large with good pressure and were hot. They have a nice marina and boat rental is available. The scenery is fantastic. We would recommend this park to others. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for 3 nights while we visited Yellowstone. Its a beautiful park with a great view. The office is only open from 8a-5p however, and that includes the laundry facilities. It became quite a problem to get the laundry done during the day when you generally would be in Yellowstone, etc. For that reason alone, we will not return to this park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was our second year traveling to West Yellowstone, and our first year at this campground. This campground is just so head and shoulders above anything you will find in the town of West Yellowstone. It has reasonable rates, beautiful scenery, free WI-FI, and an extremely friendly and accommodating staff. We are so glad we decided to look around for alternatives to the run of the mill, overpriced campgrounds in West Yellowstone. We will return here every year. It was great. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I cannot praise this RV park enough! From my first email, to the day we pulled out, everyone was friendly and helpful. Hebgen Lake is a beautiful and peaceful lake about 7 miles from the town of West Yellowstone. We used this park as a base for our 3 days of visiting Yellowstone National Park. The drive to the park is easy, on great roads, and the West Gate to the park is a good place to start your Yellowstone adventure. The sites and roads are gravel, the view is gorgeous. We fished in the lake, ate all our meals out in the clean air. The park is very quiet, and very nice people stay here. I would make this a destination - not just a stopover. Perfect! We camped here in a Motorhome.

I must first say that upon arrival my family and I were greeted by friendly staff. Because of the unusual thaw and warm weather the camp actually opened early this year and we enjoyed the camp's opening day. Being as such there were many things such as the indoor swimming pool not being open, lack of most store supplies and unavailability of the morning/evening food services that were just plain absent from the experience. In all fairness the staff notified me of the pool being closed still at the time of booking - so no surprises there. Could have used the Breakfast/dinner notification but hey we're camping right! I am not listing these items as a negative but as a matter of testimony as to how great this KOA is! Without these amenities I would still rate this site as one of the best KOA's I've been to. CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN - kabin and bathrooms alike were immaculately clean (and this is coming from a military man). Lights were functional/heaters worked well/no bad smells/convenient restrooms (not too close or far away). We actually got what we paid for (which is rare today) and honestly cannot think of one thing that we would consider "disappointing". I usually expect to have something wrong with a stay at koa (light bulbs/ broke heater/ bugs/ uncleanliness/ smells in kabins/ marathon runs to bathrooms or so close you smell/hear the restroom traffic/ parking issues...you name it) but not this time! - My family will be back! We camped here in a Campground Cabin.

This campground is about 6 miles from town and the west gate of Yellowstone. This is a decent campground. The campsites are long enough to leave your tow vehicle hooked-up if you're only staying one night. The grounds are well maintained with plenty of grass and trees (the trees are fairly young and don't provide much shade however}. The store has nice merchandise although as expected it's a bit pricey. There is a restaurant that serves good food (again, a bit pricey). Our biggest complaint is that the WiFi service is poor. You basically have to go hang around at the office in order to use it; there is no usable signal at the campsites. This campground would have got 8 stars, but because of the poor WiFi service, it gets 6 stars. One other warning for those who use AT&T for cell phone service; there is no signal at this campground. You must drive several miles toward town to pickup a signal. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This should have been a great family vacation but it turned into a nightmare. We spent the previous nights at the KOA in Great Falls and had a fine experience but this place is run like a concentration camp. We were told be quiet BEFORE quiet hours began at 10PM. We were told to put out our small marshmallow campfire without an explanation. We were harassed by the managers and security from the start of the trip. When we voiced our concerns to the owner they responded with insults and threats to forcibly kick us out. PROS: We were not forced into involuntary slave labor CONS: Early forced bed times. Poor showers. Rude staff. We were not escorted to out assigned spot (typical KOA protocol). Threats from management $81/night fees If I were to go to W. Yellowstone again I would stay at one of the MANY other available campgrounds. If you are a glutton for punishment and do go to this KOA, good luck, and be sure to bring numbers of other campgrounds when you find out how rude they are for yourself! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is a great launching point for Yellowstone and Yellowstone is truly amazing. Given the location you would expect this campground to be one of the best in the KOA system. Unfortunately, it is only average. I have no problem paying for a premium site, per child fees and activity fees. I do however demand value for my money which I do not feel we got from this campground. The bathroom situation is a mess. There were lines early in the morning and up to 12 at night for the showers. At the rates they charge this is a travesty. $ 70.00 + a ton of other fees a night is top of the line pricing. At these rates they have to deliver. They have a nice patio and swing at the premium sites but this means nothing if they have not covered the basics. My wife and I have four kids and hate to go to completely unattended pools. Leaving a pool with a handful of rules posted on a sign is a recipe for disaster. We watched kids choking each over, dunking each other, and we watched one father throw his kid (for fun) onto other kids in the pool. We left after 15 minutes. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Yellowstone Park KOA was a disappointment. We had heard that it was excellent, and it was just average. When we checked in, we were "given" the worst site in the place - on the highway, no trees, and a big hole where you step out of your trailer, even after we had asked for a nice site. There were plenty. Returning to ask for a different site was problematic. After saying that we would pay for a pull-through site, we got one, again, with no trees - although there were ones available. Yes, there were tons of things to do there - from getting served a meal to miniature golf. We were there to see Yellowstone with our 8-year old, not hang out in the campground. But the worst - taking a shower was just disgusting. Although they "clean" once a day, they need to up their schedule to a second time during mid-morning. With only 2 shower facilities holding 4-6 shower stalls (in the women's) and 268 campsites, a mid-morning cleaning is essential. Paper towels in the restroom would come in handy for cleaning up the previous slob's hair and toothpaste. We would have liked this KOA to live up to its reputation. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

The manager John was very rude, arrogant, accusatory and had me in tears. As a health care provider (RN) for 21 years in the Dallas Fort Worth health care system, I recognized that this man was very unprofessional and demeaning. I was shocked. I will not return, nor will my niece who witnessed his unprofessional ism. Just to share to 'beware'. His staff was reluctant to disagree with anything he said. You could tell they were afraid to disagree. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.

As we traveled the West Yellowstone area this park seemed a good choice. When we arrived to check in we were greeted and helped right away. We spent most of our vacation traveling, so we mainly stayed in the camp ground during the evening and night. To talk with family by cell phone was difficult to do due to poor reception. I talked with a few people in town and this is common. WiFi was available, but we could not receive it at our campsite. Most people gathered near the office with laptops to get WiFi. Cable is not part of full hook-up's, a primium site only has this feature. I thought for $ 62.00 a night it should be included. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We were there starting Labor Day weekend. Facilities are pretty nice, unfortunately, they shut everything down around us while we were still staying there. We were in a pop-up so we had to use restroom/shower facilities in tha park which were a long way away after they shut all of them out in the campground down. Wi-Fi works great if you are standing in front of the store, but don't plan to use it in the campground. For my money, I would rather stay someplace that appreciates me as a customer instead of treating me like an imposition. We plan to go back to the area, but we won't be staying at this one.

Very nice park, sites were pretty close together. Even though the park was only about half full, we always had someone right around us. The BBQ dinner and pancake breakfasts were good and priced right. They are very strict about the closing time ( 10 PM) for the pool and hot tub. There was a jerk employee that was upset that my wife and daughter were in the bathroom getting changed after 10:00 PM, and almost walked in on them!! I spoke to the manager the next day and he didn't seem all that concerned, maybe this happens a lot? We'll try another park next time. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Staff was unfriendly and not particularly helpful. They acted as if it were an imposition to register us and wait on us. Our site was at the end of a row close to the bathhouse. Adults and children on bicycles cut through our site when rounding the corner and on the way to the bathhouse. Even though there were empty sites, the management refused to move us and were quite rude about it. We will not camp there again. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

This KOA was the nicest,most beautiful park we stayed in that trip. Did not know whether to visit Yellowstone or just stay there, the kids loved the pool, they loved riding the rental bikes and the putt putt. The morning breakfast was fantastic, cooking outdoors was great, the cabin, the area full of green grass, nice parking. The best one yet! We camped here in a Campground Cabin.

One of the better KOA's we have visited! This is a very busy campground! I would be sure to get a site away from the main areas which was always full of bicycle and pedestrian traffic. Lots of trees make it feel like you're in the forest. Our site had a concrete patio with table, chairs and a swing. A fire ban was in effect, so no campfires. Pool was too busy and noisy to fully enjoy in the evening. Kids kept trying to sneak into the adult hot tub despite clear postings. Use it during the day to avoid the crowd. Staff was excellent, but they needed a few more people. Especially to supervise the pool and main entrance area. Lots of kids with no parents in sight, be careful not to run one over! The store was very well stocked with Yellowstone stuff. One night a week, they have a "buy two get one free" sale on everything (except food)! And if you show up in your jammies, you get an extra 10% off. That was fun! Ice cream/espresso bar had weird hours, not consistent. Good snacks though! A great place as a base of operations to see the park, very close to the west entrance. We will go back here again! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed in a "standard full hook-up with a little extra" site. The site was gravel and had a concrete pad for the picnic table, no cable TV service, no wi-fi at site. The park is very family friendly. After about 4 PM drivers need to beware because kids are everywhere riding bikes, scooters, and generally running around. People seem to know this, so it is fairly safe. The wi-fi at the porch was painfully slow. Cost aside, I'd stay there again. Oh, except that you have to choose carefully when you shower. I showered after the bathrooms were cleaned and had hot water, in the morning however the water was cold! For the price, I chose to stay only two nights and move on. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Paid too much for end June. Ribs were excellent. $12.99 for half rack - $18.99 whole rack. Pricey when compared to Spearfish SD where the ribs were $9.99 half rack and just as good! Undercover pool is good. Watch the speed limit coming into West Yellowstone from the KOA. The police get you where the speed limit drops from 65 to 35 to 25 in a matter of a several hundred yards. Everything is expensive here. Site was good. Swing and concrete patio. Easy pull throughs. Stayed two nights. Would go back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

$60 for the Memorial day weekend and $53 for the following day. Both way overpriced and more than other parks in the area. Another park that advertises WiFi but you have to sit outside the office to use it and it's cold in this area. At this price they should be able to afford another antennae or two. We even requested a site that could pick up wifi when we paid the deposit, but nothing was mentioned until we arrived at the front desk. We stayed over the Memorial Day weekend and after and the park was busy, but only 2 of the 3 restrooms were open so there were queues each day. Told at the office that the other one would be open in a couple of days. Also heard the same thing 2 days later when someone else inquired. They did not open after 5 days. Check the cheaper parks if you are coming to this area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here because the camp ground came highly recommended. We were not happy with our stay because we had asked for full hookups so we could have cable because we where going to be staying a week. Well apparently they have a special place for tent trailers and that is in the beginning of the park, right by the freeway that is very noisy at night. We also thought our campsite would have cable, wrong again. We also thought our campsite would have a swing in it, wrong again. Considering that we paid and requested a full hook up we got neither. The pool needed to be cleaned, my husband saw fecal matter floating by him in the pool. We cut our visit short by 4 days because the camp ground was not what we had expected. Everything they have on the agenda for fun to do comes with a price. Nothing is free in the town of West Yellow stone. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
