Great location for touring Yellowstone

Loved the location because we could easily access most sites of interests. a little scare at check-in when we were told we had different size campsites than we had reserved in spite of confirming our reservations just a few days before we arrived. I don't know where the glitch was but our three sites worked out well.  We were assigned sites nearby one another and the sites adequately accommodated our equipment (a 27 ft trailer with slide on #D153, a pop-up on #156 and two tents on 140).  Sites were roomy and backed up to a common area.   We pulled in backwards to D153 so our door faced picnic table. We learned that you must have printed tickets for all Xanterra reserved tours.  We were supposed to receive these tickets at check-in however we did not receive our tickets.  Happened to learn about this when trying to add to our reservations.  Near disaappointment luckily averted. Make sure you get your Xanterra tickets printed when you check-in!  Did not use bathrooms but plentiful and conveniently located. Great, spacious bear boxes. Nice dish washing stations.Two great rivers nearby for fishing and watching sunsets. Loved nearby Fire Canyon road, which offered good fishing and a swimming hole! Great evening ranger programs. Great place to do the Jr. Ranger program.  Ice, drinks, snacks available for sale at campground.  Good recycle program.
