Nothing wrong with this stay, although I wouldn’t call this a “campground.” It’s a small and tight rental cabin property that has a few slots for RV hook up.
It’s tight but as long as your just looking for a place to drop or unhitch this one is fine.
There is some shade with trees and each spot has a picnic table. It’s basic but it will do!
They are definitely more focused on the cabin rentals here. They looked really nice too, newly built and rustic.
Traveler
We moved for one night to the RV side with full hook ups. The sites are level, long, quite, and nicely spaced out. Well worth the money, close to the lake. There are NO fire rings, only propane fires are allowed in the RV park.
Legend
This RV park is simply just a place to park. Many of the spaces do not have any tree coverage although most sites do have full hook ups. You are right on top of your neighbor if you don’t mind that there are picnic tables at each site too. But maybe only 20 sites available. This RV park is part of the motel. 
RangerI tried to reserve the site at the rv park right at the time the reservations opened and I ended up getting the only spot open in the non full hook up side. About two weeks prior to our visit, I checked and someone canceled so we were able to get an end spot with full hook ups. There is a lot to do at this campground. We brought and inflatable kayak that had to be inspected and paid a grand Teton permit to use. We attended the 9pm talk with a ranger. We only had two full days there but it was nice. Jackson is about an hour away. We also did a hike with a ranger.
RangerAwesome campground right in the park. We stayed 5 nights and really enjoyed it. Full hook ups yet still plenty of trees and space to where it felt like a national park site and not like an RV park. Lots of amenities grocery store, laundry with free WiFi, showers, restaurant, gas/diesel near by. Was a short walk to Jackson lake which was beautiful. We will definitely be back!
Traveler
We stayed for a week in this brand new RV park. Full hook ups. The park has everything you need though, at this point, it is rather bare. Sites are close together. In Spring the space between sites isn’t useable due to mud and snow. There is a very nice laundry and shower facility. The park is centrally located in Yellowstone so it is easy to get from place to place.
Ranger
The campground seems like an afterthought since they have a lodge and cabins. Sites have full hookups, which is great. There is only one dumpster for the entire property. Many of the campsites have vacation rental houses behind the site. Two sets of porta potties serve as the campground restrooms. Many campers seem to be long term and also traveling with their side by sides.
Legend
West Yellowstone Grizzly campground is located close to the West Yellowstone entrance. It is an Rv Park, lodging, and cabins. It is also in the town of West Yellowstone which is a darling little town with so much to do. The Rv sites are full hook ups and they have picnic benches on a leveled gravel site. There are no fires allowed here and it is pet friendly. . They have WiFi and cable. The sites are pretty close together, which I did not like. There is a grass area on each site which is wonderful for dogs. There are 4 laundry rooms and clean bathrooms and showers. We stayed for 2 days and would stay again.
Guide
This campground was very close to the West Yellowstone entrance and was very convenient. This campground is right in the small town of West Yellowstone. The park felt safe, clean, and well cared for. It was a large gravel pull-thru site with full hook-ups that was okay. It was a little difficult to level with our travel trailer with our Anderson levelers because they kept sliding in the gravel (frustrating). There was some grass and young trees that were well cared for.
We used our couple night stay to utilize the laundry facilities, which were clean and fully functional, and also visit some friends nearby.
We would stay here again, but it would not be a destination for us. We did visit several local stores in West Yellowstone during our stay and it felt very touristy, which I guess we shouldn't have been a surprised by. We needed to restock on some groceries during our stay and they were a bit pricey.
The campground is affiliated "Giant Screen Theatre" on the same grounds. As a guest of at the RV park you get a discounted rate to see a movie but our time there was limited and we didn't take the time to see a movie.
I would recommend this campground but the location leaves something to be desired. I feel like it was very utilitarian, well cared for, and was a good move by the owners to make this location into a RV park.
Guide
We saw this campground on Dyrt on our trip through Wyoming to Teton National Park and decided to stay for a night or two. Glad we did! Actually ended up spending 5 nights. Lots of hiking trails, beautiful views, very clean and well dispersed sites. There are electrical hookups in loop A and loop B is primitive. Easy access for RV/Trailer camping and plenty of tent sites as well. First come first serve, but I don’t it gets much use as it is so close to most people’s destination of Yellowstone that they just drive on by. Too bad for them! We had the whole place to ourselves for several nights. Nice waterfall to view also. We will be back!
Guide
This location offers some full hook-up locations, but they are generally pretty tight and some are fairly uneven.
The people running the KOA are nice and accommodating (We had to change spots because we felt that we could not safely level our trailer due to the site eroding on the low hill side- YIKES!) The cell service was good.
This is about 15 minutes from the West Yellowstone Gate and outside the town of West Yellowstone by roughly the same. We went in their last week of operation before they closed down for the season and it was... sparse. I'm sure during the summer it is much more lively and fun to be there.
To be truthful, we would maybe stay here again, but would MUCH prefer to stay in the park, even if we didn't have full hookups.
GuideGreat rv park minutes from the Yellowstone entrance. Full hookups, decent site sizes. Everything is well maintained. There are bathrooms, multiple laundry facilities, playground. There is also a pay dump site for people not staying here.
LegendWe were actually staying at a NFS campground not far from this place. Being that our CG didn't have electricity or water at the site, we were looking for a place that did for a few nights to do some cooking and cleaning. When we drive through, we noticed what the other review mentioned. Long term seasonal. Portables for bathrooms, which is no worse than the NFS vault toliets, but we were hoping for showers. The best part for us was it is on the river. Fishing, rafting, swimming would be great for here.
Guide
Context: this is not an RV resort nor a wilderness experience. It is a pleasant, scenic, rural highway-side campground. We stayed in early May en route from Bozeman to Moab. Small pleasant campground near the highway between Yellowstone and SE Idaho sights and Jackson Wyoming. Small cottonwood shaded sites adjacent to farmland and Teton views. Clean bathrooms with warm comfortable showers. The campground is ideal for a stopover or basecamp for visiting the west-side of the Tetons, Craters of the Moon, and other sights in SE Idaho (or passing through on trips between the Greater Yellowstone Region and Utah). Hookups, wifi, 5G Verizon service. Only drawbacks, are possible wind and some highway noise. The owners, living on-site in a beautiful farmhouse, are friendly and accommodating. It is a trusting handshake type of reservation, payment, and communication system (cash or credit card on site).
UPDATE: as of 2023, online reservation system and payment. Easy to use.
GuideOne must plan in advance for a reservation at Fishing Bridge RV Park in Yellowstone National Park. Full hookups available on paved sites.
walking distance to the store and NPS Visitor Center- but bring your bear spray as there are many right around.
this campground may be closed for reconstruction during 2019, but call to know for sure. We stay every June we can for Yellowstone Lake fishing and requisite sight seeing.
RangerYellowstone Campgrounds did not open until May 15th due to snow and COVID so we had to find a last minute convenient RV park right in town two blocks from the gate.
This one was clean and well organized. Full hookups and neatly landscaped. It has the usual conveniences like laundry, toilets and showers, a playground and pavilion as well as a well organized dump station and good layout with at least 304 sites.

Google sent us on back roads, but it was worth driving into a Aspen studded campground. Great place for RV's full hook-ups, clean and friendly!
TravelerColter Bay is my favorite.
I've stayed in the cabins here 3 years in a row and now the camping sites this year (not RV resort) and I cannot get enough of this place.
Camping amenities are nothing fancy, nor are they bad. The bathrooms next to the sites were clean and flush which was a pleasant surprise.
The site was somewhat level, could have used blocks but we are in a van and only stayed two nights, so it was not that big of a deal.
Showers in the "Launderette and Showers" were decently clean, nothing to complain about aside from the odd closing at 8pm. (Not really a big deal, just need to plan around it if showers are a part of a nightly routine)
Traveler
After spending a few nights in generic RV parks Atherton Creek is a breath of fresh air. I think there is only one or two full hookup sites available so the rest of the sites are just campsites.
The views of the lake are wonderful, the host is helpful and the campground is quite small. Despite its limited number of sites we had no problem finding a prime site. This is due to the somewhat, out of the way, location. The road is bumpy but paved.
Highly recommended.
GuideSmall sites but full hook up and just minutes walk to the lodge and Jackson lake.
GuideWe camp there for three days with an RV.Its nice campground,they have full hook up,laundry,quiet
GuideThis is a great full hook up campground inside the national park. Bathhouses were clean and the campground is really quiet. The stars at night are phenomenal and we can’t wait to come back
Traveler
We stopped here after exiting Yellowstone to rest and eat and be on the road early the next day. The restaurant at the lodge was fantastic! Our campsite was lovely with full hook ups but it was packed and the smoke from the campfires were a bit bothersome for my asthmatic family member. Beautiful trails to walk through meadows as well.
Guide
Drove our little 20ft trailer a long ways to get to this here but Yellowstone will always be worth it! Not many campgrounds to choose from when trailer camping in Yellowstone but we were happy with our choice. Had to book way in advance (as one might assume). We requested a couple spots when booking but did not lucky. We were placed smack dab in the middle of the campground. No privacy and minimal tree coverage. Although the host did place us near the other party we were with.
This site is in good proximity to many big attractions in the park. We were gone from camp from dawn til dusk so it didn’t really matter what campsite we were in. No showers, bathrooms decently clean (especially for how many campers camp there). Located a short walk from the river. Word of advice; these park rangers and hosts don’t F around. Read the rules and regulations before booking and if you cannot manage to abide by ALL the rules, be prepared to be ticketed or just book campgrounds outside of the park.
If you can, request the sites at the back of the campground nearest the river but don’t get your hopes up, it’s a gamble.
ScoutThe campground hosts were great and made checking in a breeze. The view is amazing and there are nice grassy common areas. Full hook ups were nice to have, but the camp spots were very tight. Our sight was basically on the road, we couldn't even put our awning out. If you stay try and get sights 1-5 so you can have a view. Everything was very clean as well.
LegendWe spent 9 nights in Colter Bay RV park in a 30 ft travel trailer. It is a fairly large RV park, but still an easy walk from laundry, the store, the lake, and the visitor center. The sites were fairly level (the whole campground is on a downhill grade to the lake) and nicely spaced. We enjoyed being in the park, though on the north side it was a bit of a drive to Jenny Lake and Jackson. Overall, a pleasant experience and I would recommend.
Guide
Hosts are new owners willing to help in any way and rehabing this place. It looks great! Tetonia is cute and quaint with two great bars open late. The view of the Tetons is out of this world! Full hook ups, dry camping and little motel on site. Within an hour Yu can get to many creeks, lakes, Rexburg, Teton NP and Jackson. Victor, ID has weekly music nights on Thursday that was super fun too.
