The Best Camping Near West Yellowstone, Montana

We couldn’t find a campsite in Yellowstone so had to exit the park late at night. The camp host was kind and understanding and was able to get us a last minute spot to stay. Showers are hot and good pressure. Bathrooms could use a little TLC but mostly clean. Spots are basic and there are security lights that are bright and stay on all night. Overall just what we needed and a good place to stay the night 

Nice place for a night 

As the title say, this is the only campground in West Yellowstone that accepts tents. There’s another 5km north of town that accepts tents, but this is the only one in town. Great facilities, super friendly and helpful staff. Pitching on gravel, so bring or borrow a mallet. Walking distance to shops and restaurants. Not excessively expensive given the proximity to the Park boundary. No bear storage facilities. All round great campground

Great Campground, and only one in tow that accepts tents

This was a good place to stop for the night. The RV spots were very close together. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Hookups were available with a gravel, level campground. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Provided maps of area with food recommendations and attractions near by. Pricing was expensive and availability was limited, call in advanced in you need a spot! 

Good place to stop 

We barely fit our tent into our site and had to back our truck up all the way to the tent in order to fit. The staff is super friendly, though. Restrooms with 2 showers, dish washing station, and laundry. Close to town. At 9 pm, a light went on above our tent. It was so bright on the white top of our tent that it was like the sun was directly above us. We had to dig out a tarp and cover the top of the tent. So, I might avoid site 36 when staying here.

Friendly staff, small spaces

This was the smallest campground we have ever stayed at. All hookups worked but your neighbors are truly only 4 feet away. This is not the place to go if you like hanging out outside the camper. Location to Yellowstone is great and if you only need a space to sleep and have full hookups, it’s fine.
