RV Camping near Cooke City, MT

    Multiple RV parks near Cooke City provide accommodations for various vehicle sizes with differing amenity levels. Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North in Gardiner offers full-hookup RV sites with electric, water, and sewer connections. Sites include picnic tables and are reservable, though spaces can be tight. "Very crowded. You look out your window into another camper," noted one visitor, though they appreciated the convenience of full hookups. Yellowstone Edge RV Park in Livingston accommodates big rigs with electric, water, and sewer hookups from May through mid-October. Perry's RV and Campgrounds in Red Lodge features electric and water hookups with a dump station but no sewer connections at individual sites. The campground operates seasonally from mid-May to early October.

    RV travelers should note the challenging mountain roads leading to several parks. The Beartooth Highway provides spectacular views but requires careful navigation with larger vehicles, particularly when accessing campgrounds at higher elevations. Full-service dump stations are limited in the region, with the closest reliable options in Gardiner and Red Lodge. Cell service varies significantly throughout the area, with better reception at developed RV parks near towns and limited or no service in more remote locations. Pet policies are generally accommodating, though wildlife concerns may impose some restrictions. According to one camper, "The drive on Boulder Rd to this campground can be a little slow but it is worth it," highlighting the trade-off between accessibility and location quality common throughout the region.

      Yellowstone RV Park

      Side by side camping for $120per night (senior rate) but all that’s open end of season. Upside I guess it’s it’s close to park, convenient to town and easy in and out.

      Carbella Rec Site Camping

      Large open area. Each site has a picnic table, bear storage, and fire pit. No privacy from camp site to campsite. Each area is pretty flat and level though! pit toilet was pretty gross (not the worst) but there was pee, and poop on the seat.

      Canyon Campground

      Beauty on the side of the road

      You are surrounded by very pretty mountains at this camp. Had some snow, but its starting to melt. No issues with bugs.

      Had a hard time getting my van flat. Had a few other people at the camp while we were there.

      It had a few bear bins sprinkled throughout along with some pit toilets.

      Had great sky clearing for the starlink.

      Sheep Mountain BLM

      Quiet and remote

      There are several spots to camp but they are larger spots so other could come in and camp quite close. It overlooks the water and is off a bumpy dirt road. The ground is quite uneven so lower trailers could bottom out on the way up the road. It is extremely quiet but cell service for Verizon is poor.

      Fishing Bridge RV Park--Yellowstone National Park

      Small parking

      We have a 24ft motorhome with one sleeping side slider. Fitting into the full hookup is tight. Our door opens up right into the next spot. Slider can’t open full. Crammed campers for everyone.

      Dailey Lake

      Incredible Views!

      The views are truly unbeatable! 6 miles of washboard gravel road leading to the lake made the journey difficult, but still worth it. Also, the winds were incredibly strong, making it impossible to cook outside or have a fire. But the views ...

    Guide to Cooke City

    RV campgrounds near Cooke City provide limited full-hookup options within strategic proximity to Yellowstone National Park. Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North in Gardiner offers water, sewer, and electric hookups with sites that accommodate larger vehicles, though spacing between units is compact. "Sites are close but better than many other private campgrounds around Yellowstone," notes one visitor about the layout. Yellowstone Edge RV Park in Livingston features RV sites with full hookups and is open seasonally from May through October. Perry's RV and Campgrounds in Red Lodge provides electric and water hookups with a dump station, operating from mid-May to October. Fishing Bridge RV Park inside Yellowstone is structured primarily for motorhomes with full hookups but functions essentially as "a parking lot with full hookups" according to guest feedback.

    Most RV parks in the region require advance reservations during peak summer months, with many facilities closing by late October due to harsh mountain weather conditions. The drive to campgrounds along Beartooth Highway involves significant elevation changes and potential sharp turns, making careful route planning essential for larger rigs. Cell service varies dramatically throughout the area, with stronger signals in Gardiner and more limited connectivity near Cooke City itself. Pet policies differ between facilities—most private parks allow pets while some National Park Service campgrounds have strict restrictions. Propane fill service is limited to select locations, with Yellowstone Valley Inn & RV in Cody being one of the few offering this amenity. Winter closures affect nearly all rv sites, with no year-round big rig spots available directly in Cooke City.
