Hiking and horseback riding are all easy to achieve just minutes from the campground. There is one dumpster and food storage box available.

    Review of Gros Ventre Campground — A Perfect Blend of Nature and Adventure

    Gros Ventre Campground in Grand Teton National Park offers breathtaking views of the Teton Range and easy access to the Gros Ventre River, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, biking, and fishing, along with wildlife photography, as visitors often spot bison, moose, and bighorn sheep. While the campground provides clean restrooms and facilities for both tents and RVs, it lacks showers. After a day of adventure, you can unwind by the campfire and relax with a mobile game from Game Vault , whether it's a calming puzzle or an immersive RPG, offering a perfect balance of nature and digital escape. Gros Ventre is an ideal destination for those seeking both outdoor adventure and peaceful downtime. Visit game vault: https://gamevault999.games/

    Access to the Snake River

    Stayed here on Sept 18, 2024. Paid $10 with senior pass. Pretty campground. Lots of pine trees. Some pull-throughs and some back-ins. Gravel campground road; may be tight in places for big rigs. Sites are dirt surface. Some leveling required. Campground accommodates tents, car camping, vans and RVs. Don't recommend large towables. Hammock camping possible. More than one vault toilet; reasonably clean and stocked. Hand water pumps, but shut off. Trash dumpsters, but locked. Some sites have easy access to the Snake River for fishing. Each site has a table, bear box, metal fire ring, and grill. Highway noise, loud at times. $20 is too high for a national forest campground fee when the water is shut off and the trash dumpsters are locked. Site 9 is large but received some odor from the nearby vault toilet. Campground host was friendly. This campground is probably a destination campground for fly fishing on the Snake River; otherwise, it's just okay for an overnight stay.

    Looks okay

    $10 ($5 with pass). Visited on Sept 19, 2024. Did not camp here; just passing through after dispersed camping down the road. Included some photos of the campground for those considering this campground in the future. It looks okay; nothing special. Easy access to Greys River for bank fishing. Vault toilet, well water pump and trash service. Sites looked small at first glance; looks unmaintained, but it's going into the winter season when I visited. Sites include a picnic table and metal fire ring.

    Nice looking wooded primitive campground

    Visited in mid-September 2024. $10 ($5 with senior pass). Did not camp here; just checking it out. Included some photos in this revciew. Except for one towable camper, I was surprised that no one else was camping here, especially considering it was hunting season. The campground was set back in the trees off of Greys River Road. Lots of trees here; lots of shade. Nice looking campground. Good size sites; appear to be level. Picnic table and fire ring included. Not much privacy between sites, but separation between sites was good. Two clean vault toilets. Hand well water pump. Trash service.  No other amenities. No hook-ups. Campground appears to be well maintained. I would consider camping here in the future.

    Wonderful Riverside Dispersed Campsite

    Coordinates: 42.78898,-110.68746. Free. Camped here Sept 17, 2024. One of several dispersed campsites along Greys River Road (Forest Road 10138). Large dispersed site, set back from forest road; no concerns with dust coming into the site from passing vehicles. Should comfortably accommodate 3 or 4 rigs. Clean rock fire ring. Mostly level, dirt surface. Easy access from forest road. Open site surrounded by trees. Next to Grey's River; easy access for bank fishing. There is a set of trees that may accommodate hammock camping. Tent camping also possible. Area can get muddy after rain. Solar recharging possible in middle of afternoon. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. Loved this spot.

    We’re on a month-long RV trip across CA, NV, WY, MT, WA, OR, & so far, this was our favorite stop by far!! The grounds are superb with on-site restaurant & laundry (free laundry — a first!). The owners are great, very attentive. AND we woke up to see a moose up close & personal! Also very close to Grand Tetons. All around an amazing experience. We loved it so much we’re trying to plan a family trip around staying here again.

    Just okay

    Stayed in #14 which is small, but suited us well (van). Other sites tend to be larger. #13 is best one, with shade on the west side, a good level driveway and backs up to the creek. 

    Lots of ants and flying bugs, making it hard to stay outside for very long. #9 is also nice with a large spread and decent shade. There is one vault toilet across from #13, a little stinky but relatively clean and had hand sanitizer. Another one is adjacent to the entrance and it has 2 toilets each for women and men; hard to find, back into the shrubs between two concrete markers at road. 

    Lots of shrubs means sites are pretty private. No real hiking trails identified in the area means there is not much to do. Didn't seem overly busy. 

    Food aside: Had freeze dried mushroom wild rice risotto with Popeye's chicken nuggs and spiced up with lemon pepper and Italian seasonings, also used parmesan. Putting nuggs into bag at end of cooking time and stirring worked fine to incorporate them. Very tasty and 2.5 servings means very filling. Broke up astronaut (freeze dried) ice cream sammich and put into freezer overnight before putting into milk for pseudo milkshake with cappuccino mix. Not bad, worth trying again. Also had sweet potato curry with applewood chicken cubes (fully cooked packet), seasoned with garlic. A bit spicy but good. Freeze dried breakfast of biscuits and sausage gravy good flavor but need to break up the biscuits before cooking or they are big and end up being soft on the outside but dry and crunchy on the inside.

    Easy Access With Many Sites

    The farm road that leads into this area was once paved and is now covered in gravel with a few ruts here and there but easily avoidable. Sites all the way down to the river edge many with rock fire rings. We were all by ourselves about halfway down - quiet and beautiful!

    Beautiful view, little privacy

    After spending considerable effort to find and book a nice site, we booked site #68. Absolutely beautiful view of the Tetons. I loved the openness of the site, but my family felt it wasn't very private. Lack of clean fresh water (was not going to use the suspect water hose at the dump site), other than hauling it from spigot at bathroom, was a little annoying. No more appointment times for dumping, which was good. Helpful camp hosts.

    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).

    Away from the crowds

    This campground is on the edge of the park and feels better spaced out than the other Teton sites. There was plenty of room and even the loop behind us was pretty much empty. Views are not from the sites, but nearby. We could walk to the river and sit on the banks in the sun. We bought firewood and ice from the office, just like the other Teton campgrounds.  One star off for the bathrooms, which could use some love.

    Everything you need in good location $$$

    We had a very pleasant stay. Everything was there and worked good. The pool and hot tub were open and due to middle good weather not used. We did. Was fantastic. It's very close to downtown Jackson. We walked with a 5year old kid in 15 Minutes to the mainstreet. Even there could eat in plenty of restaurants. The campsites are not very large and you cant put carpets or campfire. But thats quite fine for being close to the city. Bathrooms, Toilets, Showers were not the latest but kept clean and in shape. Everything good. Lower rating due to very high pricing for everything.

    (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.

    pulled in pretty late at night but found a riverside spot within first 5 mins. the dirt road goes for quite some distance & is all around a gorgeous spot! there are free range cutie cows along the road and I even woke up to a small herd by the tent which absolutely made my morning. no service but fairly close to Jackson which has everything you could need to restock on. some pretty gnarly potholes but overall a really well maintained road.
