"Great RV Park. Owners are great and really work hard to keep the campground clean and up kept. Utilities work well. Spaces are close but better than many other private campgrounds around Yellowstone."
"Within walking distance of everything in town and the entrance to Yellowstone."
$20 / night
"We got there around 9 a.m. and had plenty to choose from. Lots of trees- perfect for hammocks. You have people kind of close, but spots are spaced out well so you still feel private."
"This was a great base camp to explore the park for the day and had food storage, picnic tables and fire rings at every site."
$50 - $169 / night
"They have several cabins that are on the Gallatin River, so serene and peaceful... They offer a zipline for the kids and often have "wildlife" on the premises (goats, horses, musicians)."
$35 - $120 / night
"Several years (10) ago I booked this KOA to travel with friends and visit Yellowstone. They all backed out, and it ended up being an incredible trip with my Mom. "
"Our fire ring was right next to our neighbors sewage drain, and the way our site slopped we couldn’t put chairs around it.
Almost all of the sites have shade."
"They had showers, a small store, fish cleaning station and plenty of bear proof garbages. They offer cabin, RV rentals, Rv and tent sites. We enjoyed our stay and the view from our tent site."
"This campground has a boat dock, cabins, boats for rent, paddle boards for rent, kayaks for rent, water/power sites, full hook up sites, rv and tent sites, bathrooms, showers, store, firepits, firewood"
$55 / night
"This is a great spot located right below the ride in a little valley. The hike to get there isn’t to bad but the drive to the trail head can be a bit of a challenge."
$75 / night
"This is maybe half a mile from parking area. No electricity, cell service, or bathroom has an out house. Also has a stove I think sleeps 12. Wildflowers and Wildlife everywhere."
"Even with every site full, you still have space.
Every site has a fire ring and a bear box. Each loop has its own restrooms and dish wash station. "
"Easy check in and check out process. Peaceful but close to the comforts of canyon village. Bear boxes provided. Our spot (A16) was close but not too close to the restrooms and potable water."
"Right on the edge of the Yellowstone River, about 90 minutes north of Yellowstone NP. This is an RV Park, so no tents are allowed. The view of the river and the mountains is fantastic."
"We were heading to Yellowstone from Glacier and had been driving for hours. We called and the park and they gave us the last site open for that day and what a site/view!"
"West Yellowstone Grizzly campground is located close to the West Yellowstone entrance. It is an Rv Park, lodging, and cabins."
"I learned my lesson about booking cheaper places further away from the National Parks. The longer drives and extra hours wore me out. This is the perfect place to visit Yellowstone NP."
GuideAbout 20 minutes south of Bozeman, MT on scenic Hyalite Canyon Road sits Langohr Campground. There are 19 spacious single sites and the 20th site is a group picnic site for day use. Langohr Campground runs along Hyalite Creek and is tucked inside Custer Gallatin National Forest in a small open meadow with Douglas fir, Lodgepole pine, and Englemann Spruce.
I was fortunate to find a campsite as a walk-in even after arriving mid-afternoon at the beginning of June 2019 because it was too late to reserve online. Each site does have a picnic table and fire ring, and electrical sites are available. Some are drive-in or back into sites, and a few are literally next to Hyalite Creek which is an added bonus. A heavy snowfall occurred a week before and remnants of it were scattered along the campground. Good thing I brought a snow scraper to clear the picnic table of snow. The fee is $20.00 per campsite for two vehicles and $8.00 for any additional vehicles. The group picnic site is $45.00 for day use. I paid cash for the site, but I believe you may also pay by credit card.
Many of the campers were settling in and had parked RVs and pop-ups. Pets are allowed but must be on a leash as wildlife such as bears, deers, moose, and elk frequent the area. Bear lockers should be used for food storage or properly stored in vehicles. There are huge bear safe trash and recycling containers near the entrance for campers to use. The bathroom is clean, free of odor and bugs, and it is a vault toilet. There are no showers, dump station, or camp store, but you are close to Bozeman. The camp host was settled on site 11 and sells firewood for $6.00. You can take a walk along the Hyalite Creek or drive 3.5 miles south down to Hyalite Reservoir for other activities such as fishing, kayaking, canoeing, climbing, hiking, and boating. The night sky was pretty spectacular especially with the trees around on a clear day.
RangerSeveral years (10) ago I booked this KOA to travel with friends and visit Yellowstone. They all backed out, and it ended up being an incredible trip with my Mom. So much so that we are having our 11th trip this year. I am also bringing my husband separately for his first time.
This KOA is well kept, clean, spacious, plenty of fun things to do, the staff is courteous. And I love the different options that you have for staying there. Tents, RV's, and Cabins. The general store is great if you forget anything. And the BBQ is wonderful for breakfast or dinner!
The accommodations are perfect. We have stayed in tents and cabins. I love that each site has a picnic table, and fire pit. If you choose a cabin, it consists of beds, a porch swing, and a space heater. Unless you choose to upgrade (which we have done in the past as well). Then you have a kitchenette and bathroom/shower.
ScoutThe Maxey Cabin, although sparse in its' appointments, is a magical destination that is accesible year round. With two sleeping cabins, a large sun deck, fire pit and outdoor swing, this forest service cabin offers the active ncabin camper a gateway to the many recreation opportunities available in the world famous Hyalite Canyon recreation area- Bozeman's backyard.
The main cabin offers a table and chairs, two double bunk beds, wood stove for heat and a small counter area for preparing your meals. Guests need to bring their own water supply and all cooking supplies including stove, pots and pans and utensils. The second cabin has two single bunk beds and a table.
Invite your friends because they will want to share in the quiet solitude of Maxey cabin and there is plenty of room. At approximately a 35 minute drive from Bozeman, the convenience of this retreat is unmatched.
Excellently maintained and kept clean throughout, visitors to Maxey cabin can survey the surrounding mountains from the large front deck. Once you've been, you'll wonder why you haven't been before and not want to tell your friends.
If you are planning a weekend excursion, be prepared to reserve your spot 6 months in advance as reservations typically are in high demand.
LegendNothing wrong with this stay, although I wouldn’t call this a “campground.” It’s a small and tight rental cabin property that has a few slots for RV hook up.
It’s tight but as long as your just looking for a place to drop or unhitch this one is fine.
There is some shade with trees and each spot has a picnic table. It’s basic but it will do!
They are definitely more focused on the cabin rentals here. They looked really nice too, newly built and rustic.
ScoutReserved a cabin at KOA in West Yellowstone; it had been raining, the area in front of our cabin was a lake!! Our fire pit and picnic table were completely underwater. We went to office & they assured us they would send someone over to take a look. They threw down some boards to walk on, but fire pit was still underwater & we would have to navigate those boards to go to the restroom in the middle of the night!
We went to the office again & asked if there was another cabin for us to move to; the manager said there was but it would be $100 upgrade!! We asked if he would be negotiable as our cabin wasn't safe. The manager kicked our family of 5 out, with the words.....good luck finding another place to stay in West Yellowstone this time of year!! Luckily, we found, Hibernation Station in town - lovely place, fully furnished cabins with bathrooms. Why anyone would stay at the crappy KOA cabins 7 miles out of town when you can stay at nicely furnish Hibernation Station cabins with bedding, private bathroom, fully equiped ktichen, walking distance to restaurants & wonderful management. Shame on KOA for not ensuring better management.
RangerI camped here twice last summer when I worked in the park as a wildlife research technician studying bats (This cabin may only be available for park staff). The hike in is best done as a through hike with a planned pick up on the other side. The trail is hard to follow in some areas. Starts out flat then you go up Mary Mountain where the cabin is located. The Mary mountain cabin is small but has enough bedding for up to 5 or 6 people. It has bunk beds, cots, tons of sleeping bags and pads. There is a cute porch, pic nic table, fire pit, and a double seated outhouse. Locks up nicely as there are definitely bears in the area. The small lake in front of the cabin is cold and clear. One of my favorite places in the park!
GuideWe had a pull thru site with patio. Our fire ring was right next to our neighbors sewage drain, and the way our site slopped we couldn’t put chairs around it.
Almost all of the sites have shade. The laundry facility was clean and the Yellowstone Park entrance is nearby.
They do not enforce the quiet hours, our neighbors were playing loud music and slamming doors until 11:30pm.
LegendWest Yellowstone Grizzly campground is located close to the West Yellowstone entrance. It is an Rv Park, lodging, and cabins. It is also in the town of West Yellowstone which is a darling little town with so much to do. The Rv sites are full hook ups and they have picnic benches on a leveled gravel site. There are no fires allowed here and it is pet friendly. . They have WiFi and cable. The sites are pretty close together, which I did not like. There is a grass area on each site which is wonderful for dogs. There are 4 laundry rooms and clean bathrooms and showers. We stayed for 2 days and would stay again.
RangerI come to this campground every single year and have for the past 9 years in a row (14 trips total). This campground has all the amenities you may need or want! Tent camping, cabin, RV, etc. And I have done them all there. There is a laundry room, showers, outdoor activities like biking, ice cream, mini-golf, playground, etc. I typically rent a cabin nowadays. I have stayed in the one-bedroom, and the two-bedroom deluxe with kitchen and bathroom/shower. Both are great! I highly recommend coming to this campground and cannot wait until I am there again this year!
This campground is only 6 miles from the West Entrance.
