"These are very large spots that are back in spots and the Wind River is right outside your door. They aren’t 100% level but we really enjoyed the spot."
"Stunning spot next to the river with a view of the mountains. Lovely, well-kept site with fire pits/benches, clean bathrooms, good shop and lovely people at the reception office."
"I got there around dark, and the colors were otherworldly. Also same for the drive in. Mountains that make animators look like fools.
The site was awesome."
"Shortly after we saw a campsite to the left (about 9 miles off the highway)."
"Double Cabin Campground is a beautiful area, right next to the Wiggins Fork of the Wind River. Great fishing for brookies and cutthroat trout. There are corrals for horses nearby."
"There are lots of horse trailers that use this road so be prepared. That being said, the payoff is amazing."
"This is a wide open dispersed location along the Green River. You might be competing with free grazing cattle, but they're respectful. It's a beautiful spot. The road in is washboard, so be patient."
$10 - $40 / night
"You can see the Tetons in the distance, and camp right along the waters edge. That said, there are a lot of mosquitoes so keep that bug spray close!"
"We were nervous driving from Westgate Yellowstone to this campground not knowing if any sites would be available as this is a first come first served campground."
"This is actually right next to (or apart of?) an equestrian park with lots of horses and horse corrals all around."
"There was a small herd of horses roaming with bells to deter the bears. I was able to get food at the nearby lodge. Very quiet, away from the traffic of the national park. "
$12 / night
"A little ways off the highway comes a dispersed camping area near Turpin Meadows."
"Not many spots but found one when I arrived around 6pm. Not positive but I think there are more tent campsites that you can walk to but not drive in at the end/bottom of the road."
"We had booked a back-up RV spot near the south entrance to Teton, but after looking at it just filled our water there and left (it was basically an open field with 50 of your not best friends in RV's blasting"
"Fire wood was available for purchase ($6) in case you couldn’t find wood around the campsite, but we were able to scrounge to find plenty. The best part about the campground were the bathrooms."
"Bear boxes, rock fire ring, nice pit toilet, a frame to hang food, and horse camping too. Appears to be 4 established sites and a possible dispersed site near the horse area."
"Heard someone nearby shooing away an animal nearby. About a 20 minute drive from the turnoff, roads were fine in my 2wd Honda. Nice and secluded spots, mine was by a little creek"
GuideTurpin Meadow Campground was a happy stumble-upon for us. We went to the Tetons and had no idea how crazy busy it would be, so were forced out of the park to find a place to stay.
Truthfully, this campground wasn't much, and was kind of difficult to get to (at least the way we went in). It fulfilled all that we wanted it to do though. A place to park our car and utility trailer for the night and wake up early to go into the park. There was water and vault toilets on site, so that was nice.
This is actually right next to (or apart of?) an equestrian park with lots of horses and horse corrals all around. It was truthfully a little spooky hearing the horses start to whinny in the middle of the night, but we got over that.
GuideStayed in mid-June when Yellowstone and Teton were brimming with tourists. We had booked a back-up RV spot near the south entrance to Teton, but after looking at it just filled our water there and left (it was basically an open field with 50 of your not best friends in RV's blasting music). Took a chance on Pacific Creek. All of the dispersed camping was taken, but the campground itself, which is at the end of the road, was about empty. For $10 we got a spacious site, table and fire ring. Water was available as were pit toilets. Looks like a great equestrian campground and we saw a few parties with horses. Make sure you make use of the bear boxes, as we saw plenty of bear prints and other sign within 200 yards of our site. Lovely trails leave right from here. The camp host is a Swiss ex-musician and all around nice guy.
ScoutAtherton Creek Campground is a beautiful campground located in the Bridger-Teton National Forest in Wyoming. It is situated near the shores of the scenic Palisades Reservoir and offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The campground has a variety of amenities, including picnic tables, fire rings, and vault toilets. It is also a popular spot for fishing, hiking, and boating .
GuideDouble Cabin Campground is a beautiful area, right next to the Wiggins Fork of the Wind River. Great fishing for brookies and cutthroat trout. There are corrals for horses nearby. There are plenty of places to camp off of the campground too. The only real issue is the camp host is aggressive with his duties. He visits often and even tells campers out of the campground nearby how to camp, maintain fires, and bear safety. Can be overbearing when trying to get away from it all. Other than than, this is a great area to spend time in. The pictures are from some of the just off campground area.
GuideBe aware, you MUST have a reservation pass to camp here. I was told that you can get into serious trouble if you don’t have one. Enquire at Lander or Dubois about getting a pass
ScoutA little ways off the highway comes a dispersed camping area near Turpin Meadows. There are nearby and accessible vault toilets and horse areas but for the most part, these camping spots are few and far between. There are several shaded spots without a view but that keep you free from the heat of summer and a couple more exposed spots that are very warm during the day but reward you with some incredible views. Easy access to both Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park as well as some great hiking in the area. Would definitely return!
GuideStayed here one night while bikepacking on the Tour Divide route. Multiple sites were open and the camp hosts were very friendly. They ensured I knew about the potential for bears and answered a few questions about the area. Each site had a bear box. There was a small herd of horses roaming with bells to deter the bears. I was able to get food at the nearby lodge. Very quiet, away from the traffic of the national park. Great nights sleep and beautiful morning.
RangerMid week during mid September and everything was pretty full, so we made the trek out of Tetons and up to this site. The sign at the road says trailhead, but if you keep making your way up, you’ll get to the sites. Bear boxes, rock fire ring, nice pit toilet, a frame to hang food, and horse camping too. Appears to be 4 established sites and a possible dispersed site near the horse area. It was very quiet and peaceful. There’s a map at the front showing all the trails that Box Creek connects to. Also, we saw dumpsters on the road in/out, not far from the turnoff.
LegendOpen sunny Campground for the horse trailer crowd or larger RVs. However, no water, trash or toilets. Water and a vault toilet is over at the horse staging area across the road. Cell signal depends on your sight to a ridge to SE.
