We camped at Colter Bay the last week of May into the first of June. While the campgrounds had plenty of RVs in it, we camped in our tent. The campgrounds in general has a ton of trees, so even though our next door neighbors were in a big RV, we couldn’t even see them from our tent. We couldn’t even see our minivan. Another benefit to the trees was cover from the wind - when we camped here, the nighttime temperatures were in the 30s. Not having to deal with the wind made it more bearable.

The loops are single-lane, one-way roads and are simple enough to navigate. Each loop has its own bathroom facility, and the bathroom facilities are close enough to each other that in the rare event yours is full, the next one down is only a short walk away. The camp store is amazingly well stocked, it’s practically a miniature grocery store with a lot of different items. You can even get ice cream there, and it has a gift shop attached that is equally well stocked with a wide variety of gifts. Even more amazing, there’s no need to worry if you forget that crucial bit of camping or hiking gear - the gift shop also had a pretty good selection of gear available.

Also in the Colter Bay Area was a pair of restaurants that had a nice, cozy summer camp kind of feel to them, and their availability was nice especially on the nights we were too tired from hiking to cook. The only “down side” I would say is that the shower facility was next to the camp store and not more central to the camp site loops, but it had great water pressure and nice, hot water so it was a nice way to cap your day of hiking with a hot shower and a hot meal at the restaurant.

Overall, the campgrounds were exceptionally clean, easy to navigate, well-supplied, and staffed with friendly people. I would absolutely camp here again, and I highly recommend it.
