    Bakers Hole Campground

    Good location. Great host!

    Great location. Close to the park entrance and West Yellowstone. Pit toilets were in really good shape. And the camp host went way beyond to help us with a situation. The campground however, really needs to provide some place for waste water for those of us who are not camping in an RV. A bear had been sighted, and there were red Active Bear Area signs everywhere, so it was critical to keep a clean site.

    Beautiful open space

    This is a beautiful spot. A little difficult to find. The road leading down to the lake looks like it’s someone’s driveway adjacent. I drove by it a few times before actually finding it. Once I got there though definitely worth it. It looks like a gravel parking lot. There were 2 small RVs already there when I got there; and a truck had pulled in sometime overnight when I woke up. The lake is gorgeous. It’s quiet and dark and very peaceful!!

    Nice place with cell service close to West Yellowstone

    I enjoyed boondocking here in my tent. I had good cell service with Google FI wireless. Also I was able to get by the road and make it in my Honda Accord. Nice place even had a bear box for food storage.

    Beautiful spot!!

    You need a reliable car/truck to get the campground, but it's a great view, and if you climb up to the Fishbowl, it is worth it! it's a great spot for hammocks as well. Overall great spot.👌

    Easy Access Campground

    This is a fantastic campground with lots of empty sites along Taylor Creek. The site I stayed at had a fire pit with lots of room to setup a tent or camper if you’re interested. Lots of distance between each campsite and again, a pretty valley view with a beautiful creek.

    cool

    What a beautiful spot to escape to! A single, private campground surrounded by a cottonwood grove sounds like the perfect place for a peaceful getaway. The 60 acres on Miner Creek offer ample opportunities for relaxation and adventure.

    Great views but poor WiFi

    Great views of the lake and mountains. Visits from the resident bison on property. Don't count on WiFi which was pretty much nonexistent.  Great laundry and showers. Tim & Trudy are great hosts and sources of knowledge about cool things to see along with Yellowstone.

    Great Campsite

    Clean campsites that are decently spaced apart. Very clean vault toilets. The dirt roads leading to the campsite were not that bad when we visited. Good cell service.

    Peaceful and Secluded

    Harrison Lake Campground is a great spot if you're looking for a quiet getaway. The campsites are spacious and well-spread out, offering plenty of privacy. It's a rustic camping experience, but the beautiful scenery and peaceful surroundings make it worth it.
    It provides a peaceful setting for campers looking for a quiet retreat, with well-spaced sites that ensure privacy.

    A Hyalite Reservoir Favorite

    The only thing that would make this campground super great would be power at each site. The fees charged here are a bit high for a basic campsite.

    Travertine Road Dispersed - Yellowstone

    Close to town and Yellowstone

    This is a nice place to boondock. There are a few level spots up here, but the road is pretty rough and pretty steep. The view into Yellowstone is gorgeous.

    So worth it !!

    This camp was so beautiful. It’s nestled right on the lake and the sunset is just stunning. The bathrooms were so clean and there was even a mural painted on the walls. There are several places to camp along the red rocks pass road if you don’t want to drive all the way down to the lake. The lake sites are so beautiful that if you opt out you’re definitely going to miss out.

    Yellowstone Park / West Gate KOA Holiday

    Friendly and accommodating staff

    They first put us by the road and we requested to change sites and they did so. The sites are not well maintained and small. Our picnic table was old and gives splinters if you’re not careful. The store is nice and bathrooms and showers are clean. Overall, it’s too pricey for conditions but doable for a short stay

    Beautiful and Busy

    This site was lovely. We pulled in around 5pm or so and there was only one spot available next to the restroom. Lucky one other spot was large and we ended up sharing it with some other campers. Picnic tables available at each site and vault toilet on site was well maintained and clean.

    It was a quiet and lovely place to rest for the evening.

    Gorgeous views and clean site

    I’m not sure why this place isn’t 5/5! We booked this site last minute as we have been exploring Yellowstone with no registrations for overnight stays. We called at 6pm (when they close) looking for space and the host said she will stay open for 30 mins till we get there. She was so very sweet and welcoming. Site was very clean, bathrooms were the cleanest we have experienced at camp sites. And the BEST views! Nice to have a designated sink for washing dishes. No bear boxes but kept everything in the car and we were good. Very bumpy road to get to the campground but sometimes it takes a rough road to get off the beaten path :) only thing was that each site has big metal fire pits and ours was totally missing. The sites next to us were vacant so we just stole the one from there.
