Great campground

Host was a good guy. Campground was fairly quiet for 4th of July weekend. Right on the river and easy to access all Island Park has to offer.

Waterfront camping, close to trails

This campground is conveniently located off of Island Park Reservoir and close to recreational trails. Early in the season, we had the campground to ourselves with a great view of the water.

More of a Spot for Locals with ATVs and Boats

We were passing through on our way to Yellowstone and found the absolute last spot available on a Friday night. If we were local and had a boat or ATV, this would totally be the place to come. Great place to put in on the river. Even a spot to store your ATVs. But since we just wanted a quiet tree-filled place to camp, this was not the best. Vault toilets. No showers. Smallish camp sites. Only $15 though, which isn't bad. But not much to do unless you were prepared with things like a boat.
