A close-to-Yellowstone oasis for tenters and pickup campers

Stayed here for two nights in late June, to facilitate visits to Yellowstone.  Chose site 7, which is on a cul-de-sac so is the most private and secluded of the sites.  Most sites are out in the open and close to other sites.  Creek ran within a few feet of our site, and we were screened by aspen trees.  Great views!  Very quiet, no problem with misbehaving campers.  Decent outhouse.  No water, and you must pack out your trash.  Bear lockers are provided for you to secure your food and other "smellies" away from bears (this is grizzly country).  Access road is steep and rough.  Unfortunately, generators are allowed but luckily no one near us was using a generator when we were there.  The vibe was relaxed and low-key.  We reserved this site online (recreation.gov) six months in advance.  They sent us reminders several times.  Apparently, some bozos reserve a site and then don't show up.
