TravelerThere is great boon docking outside of the organized campground area. Follow your GPS to 44°35'52"N x 111°25'18"W. At ~6,500 feet, the views of Lake Henry are amazing. There are 15-20 spots suitable for RV's (of any length) plus campsites. It's a great location, only about 20-30 minutes from West Yellowstone and the entrance to the national park. We could have stayed here for days!
5-bar coverage on Verizon.
RangerGallatin National Forrest Campground on Hebgan Lake, South Fork Arm. Also has a boat launch to Lake. Smaller Forrest Service campground with electric at sites, no water at sites, but does have a few water faucets throughout campground. Sites are nice spaced around lake and trees, so some shade to full sun sites. A little space between most sites, picnic tables and fire rings. Approximately 8 miles from west Yellowstone entrance.
GuideWe stayed a week here, beautiful views and quiet. Our site was close to level and paved, 50amp,no sewer,shared water. Had some storms and high winds. Trash pick up daily at your site. There is a boat ramp and docks. Bath house looked good we did not use the showers. There is no dump station here. The park is about 15 miles from West Yellowstone. We enjoyed our stay.
LegendCabin Creek Campground is a nice small pleasant 16 site campground sitting in a mature pine and Douglas Fir forest. The site is 22 miles from West Yellowstone and the park. Campground is right next to the highway which makes for some road noise, but it settles down at night. Each site has a picnic table and metal fire ring. Campground has a vault toilet and water, trash service and recycling is available. Sites are nice and roomy with plenty of flat ground for your tent. One site is Accessible. If you want to go hiking, the 6 mile Cabin Creek Trail begins at the campground.
This campground is in the Earthquake lake geologic area. The area was forever changed by the 1959, 7.5 magnitude earthquake. Earthquake Scarp Interpretive Area is located just adjacent to campground. You can learn more about the earthquake by stopping at the interpretive sites along the highway or checking out Earthquake Lake Visitor Center which is 5 miles down the highway
LegendI stayed for 2 nights and upon arriving on a Tuesday evening, there were 2-3 spots left. There’s no official spots since it’s dispersed but several pull outs along the dirt road. There are 2 clean vault toilets that were stocked. Free to stay but no amenities other than toilet. Cows are free roaming around here so you will hear them all times of the day. Bugs were bad on some days but if you have any time of wind or fan, it wasn’t an issue. Had 3-4 bars LTE via AT&T. Only 30 minutes from west Yellowstone. Definitely would stay here again, felt very safe!
TravelerThey advertise that their wifi is about to get an upgrade to fiber, but without that upgrade, the wifi is worthless. Less than 1 mbps on average. Not really reliable. The Verizon connection was really good, and could Hotspot for 120 mbps often. T-Mobile was okay, but not great. 1-3 bars, but almost always 2 bars.
Site was good. Bathroom remodeling went great, and is amazing facility now. There's a little dinner and live theater place across the road that seemed sold out days in advance. 20 miles from West Yellowstone. Haven't had a bear sighting in the camp in over 2 years.
