    High clearence needed, peaceful, great views of the Tetons

    This is a great location if you are exploring the Teton/Jackson area. It's a little far to camp here and then go to Yellowstone.

    There are a lot of camping spots that are dispersed to choose from, but keep in mind that even with the low amount of reviews here it's a well known spot to locals.

    We stayed here in June and finally found a spot after passing dozens of filled ones, only to see about half a dozen other vehicles drive by looking for somewhere to park.

    This is true back-country camping, pack in and pack out. No potable water is available and no facilities so be prepared with all your needs before coming here. Also note that this is bear country so be prepared with food and smell management to limit attracting them in.

    The Sunset over the Tetons was amazing and we would stay here again in the future.

    Primitive National Forest Campground with Sandy Beach

    $12 fee. Paid $6 with senior pass. Camped here for a few nights in the middle of September 2024. Camped one night in site #17, then moved the next day to site #13 along the lake. Beautiful wooded campground. Good primitive campground along a beautiful lake. Our site, site#13, backs up to the lake and has a private path to the lake's beach. The campground has a mix of pull-thru and back-in sites. Lots of trees on the campground. Several sites have enough foliage between them to offer privacy. Some sites are large; some are small. I didn't see any sites that offer good tent camping opportunities. Most sites are suitable for camper vans, car camping, RTTs and truck campers. I saw one towable. I don't think this campground can easily accommodate large rigs. There are two clean his/hers vault toilets, stock with tp. I couldn't find water. The campground has gravel/dirt roads and site driveways. Each site has a table, metal firering& bearbox. The forest road accessing the campground is gravel. The campground is well maintained. No hiking trails at the campground. The sandy beach on the lake was nice for a stroll. Also tried fishing, but no luck. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. Would definitely stay here again.

    Wonerful Primitive National Forest Campground

    Camped here in the middle of Sept 2024. This primnitive campground was in offseason mode; open for hunting season. Usual fee was waived. Stayed in site #2 for one night; large site. Great site along Horse Creek and a smaller creek that emptied into it. Site was on a level dirt surface; clean. Included a bear box, picnic table and metal fire ring. Vault toilet was resonably clean considering the time of the year and had a little bit of tp in it. Water was shut off for the winter. Tent camping is possible; can't say this for hammock camping. Possible hiking nearby. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. I was the only occupant in the campground. A few vehicles drove by. Otherwise, Quiet and peaceful. Would definitely consider staying here again. Loved this location.

    Great for a night

    I wouldn't camp here for a few days, but this is great for a night's stay. Close to the park, 10 minutes on a good gravel road. Large area with a lot of space.

    Overnight stay near Grand Tetons

    Found on Google Maps Free dispersed camping in allowed areas.
    There are a few fire rings and a pit toilet.
    There were quite a few campers but was actually quiet.
    Beautiful sunset over the Tetons.

    Spot #5 was very nice

    Dispersed Camping space #5 was very nice. We decided to pull our 29' travel trailer only partway into the space to find the most level spot. But we still had some 4 acres all to ourselves! The mosquitos were not fooling around though!

    Better Than Anything You Could Pay For

    Absolutely the best the USFS dispersed system has to offer. Unbeatable views, understanding site neighbors, attentive host, and all the peace and quiet you can tolerate. Be forewarned, after you drive all the way back to the dispersed site area, MOST of 40+ sites are up a steep, 4x4 required hillside, many aren’t level enough for tenting, and all are in bear country, but again- WORTH IT. Have been here 3x now and will be back.

    Nice Campground - mostly shut down end of Sept

    Looks like a nice campground but we moved on - the electric at the sites were turned off (on 9/26), trash bins were locked. Pit toilets were open. Plenty of open sites if you want to stay.

    Popular and convenient

    This area seems to be very popular. It is very close to the Grand Tetons. There is spotty Verizon signal. Because it is very popular I would suggest larger rigs to arrive earlier in the day in order to get a spot. There seems to be an abundance of camping areas. I stayed here for three nights and was unable to camp at the same location each night. Great views and people around me were polite and quiet.

    Road Not RV Friendly

    The road is very rough. We drove up, but there were a lot of very rough patches. The place was full, so we continued on to find another area.

    Clean, quiet camp with Teton views

    Stayed mid-September and pretty much had the place to ourselves. The resort had two separated areas: one with hookups (~75 sites) and one with no hookups (~100 sites). There were no open sites with services, but the area without services only had 3 occupied, so we pretty much had it to ourselves. The review form doesn’t have a place to indicate, but we had very good Verizon signal.

    Nice area

    We stayed in the first area of the road to the lake, pit toilet and camp host. Room for maybe 6 or 7 rv's and 4 tent van campers. Unfortunately at night if there is room someone will park in the spot.

    Shadow Mountain - Dispersed Campsite #10

    Unbelievable Views

    Absolutely breathtaking experience camping in site #10a. We got there around 1-2pm and every spot was already filled except for 10a. We accidentally missed it the first time but caught it on our way back down. We went as far as site #17 before we turned around. Plan ahead. Get a spot early and put out some chairs/tables to mark it as yours if you have other plans for the day. It’s a dirt/rocky road uphill the whole way. We wanted to stay for 2 nights but it ended up raining the entire night and was forecasted to rain the entire next day so we moved on to the next location. Beware! If it rains, that dirt/rocky road turns into pure mud. I hydroplaned the whole 15-20ish minutes down. Thank god for downhill braking systems! Would I do it again for that view? You bet.

    Great Camping Area

    Stayed the last weekend of August. The area was amazing, moderate traffic but hardly any issues at night. The campground host Kevin was AWESOME and very attentive to all the sites. We had a nice view, no issues with bugs - just a mouse that was climbing ALL OVER the tent (: We would definitely stay here again. Road to get here is a little rough. Took my Subaru to the top point, definitely need more than a sedan to reach some areas! I believe we camped at #11. (Larger lot with the fire pit in the middle).

    Beautiful but LOUD

    (October 6th, 2023) We got here late and squeezed into either 1A or 1C since everything else was taken, but the site was beautiful. We backed in between the trees for privacy and had a perfect, small area to ourselves, up until a big group of teenagers with multiple cars set up camp right around the corner (not in a designated spot). We knew it was a Friday night, and we could hear even more partying down the road, but we still wished for peace and quiet. In the morning, we walked down the road a bit to watch the sunrise reflecting off the Tetons. Even though our experience wasn’t perfect, it was gorgeous, so close to the park, and most importantly, free! I would definitely try to come earlier to get a more secluded site.

    Remote

    (October 6th, 2023) Not sure how, but we got to spots 5-6 on the most damaged road I’ve ever been on. I wouldn’t even try again unless they’ve fixed it since last year! That being said, it was SO quiet and remote up there, we were actually afraid a bear was going to sneak up on us. Saw some mule deer, a fox, and so many stars at this beautiful site. We couldn’t see the Tetons themselves, but were surrounded by stunning views and forest, with not a single person in sight.

    Very nice free campsites near Grand Teton NP

    This was a nice peaceful stay. Only about 15 minutes from the park entrance at Grand Teton and maybe about 45 minutes from Yellowstone NP. The place has a fire ring and also a bear food bin for food storage. And even a bathroom at the entrance of the camp site!
