Welcome to our campground! We have a variety of options that should suit just about anyone. We are near Yellowstone National Park as well as Bozeman, MT which offers all types of recreational opportunities e.g. hiking, fishing, climbing, skiing, cycling and running trails.
VanGoBoon is the perfect "Pull-in for the Night" as well as week-long stays! Most of our sites are SELF-CONTAINED. We have 2 sites that have electric and water hookups. (20,30,50amp)
On site we have horseshoes, frisbee golf, and corn toss. We mostly offer dry campsites for overnight stays for vans. Most sites are on concrete slabs so they are level and the property has grass areas with trees as well.
FYI: Great site if you like trains! An important part of Montana’s commerce is transportation by rail so there will be some highway and train noise.
Private spots between trees but near freeway for easy access. Our 2 horses have been a favorite with young campers along with the open yet private campsites! We look forward to welcoming you!
Showers are for cabin rentals only.
$25 - $195 / night
Perfect location for whole park.
When cloudy and wet it's a little dark, but that's the weather's fault!
Great showers included in price and close to village for preprandial drunks
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.
We were only able to book 1 night online. However when we checked in we asked if they had an extra night & we got lucky to get one as the person in front of us canceled his reservation! So don’t give up if u can only get one night!
Loved this campsite. We were in loop J and our side was semi-private. Fires were allowed. Each campsite has a large bear box. Bathrooms were good and each location had a dishwashing station with drinking water near it. Generators not allowed from 8:00 PM-8:00Am A handful of shops around and a gas station near by. Showers were awesome & clean & they have TONS of washers & Dryers for Laundry!! By far one of the best NP campgrounds!
Stayed 8-1-24
Good: KOA like expected, but great view.
Bad: Mile long dirt road to get to entrance.
Would I stay again: ?, I might try West entrance next time.
We stayed here on our way home from Colorado. Pulled in it was 98 degrees so full hook up power was great. Swimming pool was an added benefit.. campground and shower house is very clean. We will stay here again.
This was the perfect place to stay for our Yellowstone trip. You are super close to the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone, and the campground itself has incredible amenities- laundry, free showers, clean bathrooms, and stores nearby. No complaints about this campground!
The staff is wonderful. Nice level spots with lots of space and awesome river views. Full hookups, nice clean bathrooms, game room and little store that has everything.
If you like trains this place is for you. If not.. well they’re pretty prevalent. Thankfully we enjoy the sound of the train whistle. We got here late and left early ish. So didn’t get to take in all the amenities. But appreciated the grassy spot and the breeze thru the beautiful aspen trees
This was a nice campground between Norris and Mammoth. Pretty tight on space but we still had privacy. Vault toilet was very clean and had a purell dispenser.
This place seems to be nicer than nearby campsites, but stinky toilets with no toilet paper, outdoor shower with cold water for $54 for a small camper was quite disappointing. Trains and highway noises are extremely loud as others mentioned
The staff was very professional and got us in a last minute tent spot on Memorial Day weekend. Beautiful campground, just a little crowded.
The hosts here are so nice. The place is well kept. $$$ but worth it.
All the premium sites on the lake are fabulous 👌. Our hosts who checked us in friendly and helpful.
Very nice ladies at the office/store. Little creek runs alone one side, tall pine trees…just a nice feel to the campground. The showers had plenty of hot water and great water pressure. It was nice that they have a little off leash enclosed dog run. Just right for our 1 year old puppy. Saw kids enjoying the huge bouncy “platform”. We have this on the list to come back if we journey this way again.
Well maintained. Pay per camp
So easy to get to! The loft was closed when we went. I think there were a lot of mice, but we didn’t have to deal with any of that. Very pretty views and such a great setup. Two single beds that we pushed together were pretty comfortable. Would definitely stay again.
LOVED this cabin. It was very accessible, with an easy road. You can drive right up to the cabin. There are two wood stoves, one in the sleeping area with two bunks. It got VERY toasty in there with the fire going (but with two adults and two large dogs shoved all on one bed together, what can you expect?) there was plenty of wood, the fire pit was perfect, and the area beautiful. 10/10
Stayed one night late March. The road in wasn’t terrible, a little rutted past the gate up to the cabin, but easy enough to manage. It was quite cold when we arrived, and we started a fire pretty quickly. The cabin has an electric stove, small fridge and freezer, and a couple small lamps and even a toaster and coffee maker. The cabin is quite drafty and we struggled to keep it warm. We pinned a sheet up in the doorway to keep the heat contained in the sleeping area, and that helped considerably.
We followed our RV GPS right to the campground (CG), which is a favorite of ours for a two-night stay. Check-in was quick and easy. We proceeded to Deluxe River site 18 with 30 AMP and water. You can angle the rig in as you want to get set up on the wide pad area. The utilities were in the middle of the gravel pad, and we could park where our 9’ patio could come out to enjoy the gorgeous view of the river. They have free WiFi, but it was not very fast, and we used our Starlink. There are mature trees here, but we got a clear shot north for Starlink. We got 3 bars on Verizon. The water pressure was okay. Talking to our next-door neighbors, who have stayed here over the years, this CG is under new management by a couple who also owned a KOA in Billings. There are already changes, such as getting rid of the cabins and putting in some new FHU sites. There may be plans for new cabins in the future. We also noticed that from staying here in September 2019, the ponds are now state-stocked, and you need a Montana fishing license following regular fishing regulations versus no-license pay for the trout you catch. They also have a military and senior discount, but this wasn't mentioned/given when we made our reservations online. We mentioned it to the lady who checked us in, but she didn't offer to refund us the discount like other CG's have done in the past. There is no dog park, but there’s plenty of area to walk your dog. Someday we are going to plan a longer than two-day stay so we can further explore the area and fly fish the river.
Got into town after 6pm, wife & dog ready to settle in, had a drive thru slot near showers. Shower’s awesome, clean , camp sites less than 15 feet apart, no fire pit… Wi-Fi lacking… bandwidth issues… spinning wheel of death… T Mobile cell phone was better source
Horrible location, lots of foot and vehicle traffic, very small camping spaces. Cars go as fast as they want, I was right on the main road AND next to the walking path. Yeah it sucked . Never again.
The campground was nice, typical KOA experience, which is good. Downside is spots are close together and LOTS of freeway noise
This place was great! Very peaceful and quiet. Not super private but a lot of trees for shade and privacy. Easy access to Lamar valley and Yellowstone Grand Canyon.
Showers are included and are awesome. Very clean and hot water. Great laundry and you can buy a cup of coffee that has free refills. People who work at the campground are very nice and helpful.
The campground is okay. The staff is wonderful. We stayed for just under 2 weeks. We didn’t have sewer hookup, but they had a honey wagon.
The spots on the river were really tight. The river was really beautiful though, so maybe it was worth it. We were on a pond, and had plenty of room.
There’s an IGA in town, and a few good restaurants. An hour drive to Bozeman gets you whatever you need.
Sites are gravel. Lots of wildlife nearby.
We stayed her for 1 night on a road trip in one of the tent sites and it was perfect. There were several options to put our tent on our site including an area covered by trees and secluded from the rest of the park. It was right on the Yellowstone River. The staff was VERY friendly!
Clean and flat pull up spots. If you’re ok with road noise and don’t want the “window knock” on your Campervan then this is a option for the night.
Tent camped for 1 night. Campground was quiet and had very clean bathrooms/showers. Would definitely stay here again but pay the extra $10 for dry camp as it was pretty muddy
