Centrally located campground in Yellowstone

Liked this campground a lot. Its nicely wooded but I do wish the sites had more privacy. Not sure why National Parks put the sites so close together. We had site #82 which met our needs. Each site has a bear box for storage. Loved the proximity to the Norris Basin for hiking. Took a 5+ mile hike through some of the most gorgeous thermal features. Bison visit the campground daily. Big plus is the flush toilets and the camp sink. Quick trip to Canyon campground for showers. There were sites right along the Gibbon river but they were all taken. Campground is first come first serve and you should get there early. Try driving through to get a feel for what sites you might like. 3 different loops are available. Ice and firewood were available on site. Everything else is a short ride over to canyon (gas, showers, food, store, etc).

  • One of many thermal features you can hike to from the campground.
