The area sits at an elevation of approximately 6,100 feet with temperature fluctuations common even in summer months. Most campgrounds close by mid-October due to snowfall in the Teton Range.

Distance considerations: Locations advertising proximity to Jackson or Grand Teton may have longer travel times than advertised.

"The Virginian Lodge right next door has a very nice inner corridor with a new pool, 2 hot tubs and plenty of seating areas with fire pits and string lights," notes a guest who appreciated the family-friendly amenities after hiking.
Grocery proximity: Several campgrounds have markets nearby or onsite. "There is an awesome new grocery store in the adjoining parking lot," mentions a visitor, allowing families to easily restock supplies without long drives to larger towns.
Tips from RVers
Water pressure management: RV parks in the area may have high pressure systems. "So glad we already had a water regulator. We were told as we were checking in that we definitely needed one due to pressure being 90psi," warns a visitor at Sugar City RV Park.
Mountain pass navigation: Travel between RV parks and national parks requires caution. "If you visit in the winter, make sure to bring chains as this pass can get pretty rough," advises an RVer about Teton Pass conditions, particularly important for larger vehicles.
Site positioning considerations: Some parks have specific requirements for RV placement. "Staff is particular where you park vehicles....most had trailer pulled all the way forward, disconnect if needed and parked vehicle sideways at back," notes a camper describing the space management protocols at the Virginian RV Park.
