      In short the campground had a bear owners knew about, but didn’t inform the people booking. 3 year old child gets attacked & all campers immediately evacuated. Campground doesn’t reimburse the patrons as promised. Greedy low life’s.

      Amazing Campground

      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!

      West Bridger Cabin

      Early Season Start

      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 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!

      The host was super accommodating. It was raining and she recommended the “cabin” so we were sheltered. The cabin had two cots in it. So used our sleeping bag and pads. Showers were hot. Cleaning drinking water. Portapotty by the “cabin”. Short drive into the town, which is worth a visit! Very cute.

      Review for Cyclists and Hikers

      For cyclists and hikers … Canyon campground does have a hiker/biker campsite, and one thing that marks this out from other Hiker/Biker sites is just how quiet it is. There are lots of pitches, with food storage, picnic tables and fire pits. The staff at reception said that they had never turned a hiker or biker away. No charging facilities, but I discreetly charged a power pack at night in the toilet block. Recommend staying 2 nights and touring all the Yellowstone Canyon viewpoints.

      Indian Creek Campground — Yellowstone National Park

      Review for Cyclists and Hikers

      For cyclists and hikers … Indian Creek does have a hiker/biker campsite, but please note: it is limited to TWO pitches with a strict policy of not sharing a pitch. I just turned up and both pitches were free so I was lucky. As of June 2023, I could not find any other campsites on the northern loop of Yellowstone between Madison and Canyon campgrounds. Back country camping for cyclists is ‘illegal’ (according to the park ranger at Tower), so plan accordingly. At Indian Creek there is food storage, picnic tables, and fire pits. Pit toilets only. Very helpful staff in the reception building.

      Woke up in the mountains at this campsite. Stayed here for the second year in a row because we loved it so much the first time. Great place to go stargazing. We stopped for coffee and lunch in Bozeman. They have the cutest bookstore that has "Blind date with a book" where books are covered in brown wrapping paper and you pick a book based on the staff's small hints about the story.

      Indian Creek Campground — Yellowstone National Park

      Far from the madding crowd

      Camped here many times over the years, it was our favorite place in the park. It's a bit more like a National Forest CG because it's somewhat off the beaten path and quiet. It is certainly more crowded these days than it used to be, back then it rarely filled.  

      The site are good, some more private than others. It is NOT a place for Big Rigs, I think the length limit was 35' last time I was there (vehicle + trailer or whatever you're pulling) and they strictly enforced that. The volunteers at the entrance cabin actually brought out a tape measure and measured my 4Runner and 17' Casita at 31' so we got in. Many rigs behind us in line were too big and were turned away.

      The creeks (Indian & Obsidian) contain small Brook Trout. For supplies, Mammoth is the closest place. 

      Have been the in June, July August & September.

      The campground is totally on the reservation system unlike a few years ago. No 1st come, 1st serve anymore.

      Canyon - Yellowstone National Park

      Perfect central location to visit Yellowstone

      This is probably the nicest national park campground we have been too so far. Sites were large and with good tree coverage provided shade and some privacy. Each loop has restroom and dish was station and each site has its own bear box. The main building can be further away but has laundry and showers. This is the perfect place from where to visit the "Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone" but it could also be use as your base to visit all or most of Yellowstone.

      Canyon - Yellowstone National Park

      Yellowstone

      This campsite was beautiful.

      The sites are spread out and spread between the trees.  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.  Each loop is farther back from the main road and the overall campground is large.

      The check in building also has laundry and showers.  You get a punch card when you check in that gives you one free shower per person per day for your stay, and additional can be purchased.  This building also sells ice, firewood, and other essentials.  

      Several gift shops, food options (gasp), and a gas station are just across or down the main road from checkin.

      At checkin we were told there were less bear sightings as some of the other campgrounds in the park.  They still have a bear policy that says no scents outside of hard sided vehicles or bear box.  We were told the rangers are more likely to give you trouble for breaking the policy than the bears were, and while bear spray was recommended, it would not save you from a ticket from the rangers.   

      Quiet hours begin at 8pm, after which rvs cannot run their generators.  The rangers actually drive around and enforce this, which is wonderful!  

      I would recommend making sure you have enough gas to get you out of the park to the nearest town.  While there are several 24 hour pumps in the park including one right near the campground, the entire park lost power during our visit, and none of the gas pumps worked on the day we were leaving.

      Also if you have T-mobile, there is coverage for emergency calls only in this part of the park.

      The camp grounds were nice and clean. As we’re all facilities. Hosts were friendly. A little noisy because it it right on the main road.
