Signal Mountain Campground — Grand Teton National Park

Being on Jackson lake is awesome - we swam near the boat ramp with amazing views. We also rented a runabout motor boat one day too, so we could get up into Morane Bay and the mountains towered above us.  Clean showers with heat in private rooms - totally worth the 5 bucks (7 minutes turns out to be just enough time, surprisingly). We even did laundry one morning while we walked to the lodge for breakfast. Had a drink in the bar during a thunderstorm, so I feel like we really used all the lodge/campground amenities during our 3 day stay. We could hear elk bugling one night, which was extra special.

One warning - we choose the generator-free loop, but our spot was right next the generator loop, so it actually didn't matter. The loops are tight and right next to each other. Duh! We weren't at the site that much so it wasn't a huge deal and people respect the quiet hours. 

One star off for the bathrooms - they're fine but could use some love.

Great location within the park. Walking distance to the lake. My site was in front of 2 others so they did walk through often.

Campground is small and cramped together. Site 17 is a tent only site with 15/16 behind it. The other campers would walk right in the middle of site 17 because I don’t think they notice the trail behind the bear box leading to their site. Easy to find and get to. Bathroom is just across the street. There’s showers and laundry at the check in office

This campground is awesome. You have your own private view of the Tetons. It feels like it should be $1000 a night to stay here not 50.

Just got back from Jackson lake viewing the Tetons from there.

Got to watch both sunrise and sunset from the spot. Priceless

Great campground in Grand Teton National Park. Good access to Jackson Lake, though it’s a bit of a haul if you’re carrying inflatables or kayaks. Sites are all nicely wooded. Really pay attention to the size of trailer recommended for each site when booking - many won’t fit a camper larger than 23 feet. Our site, 27, was a little tricky to back into as it’s on a hill but once we were settled, it was a very private feeling site. Bathroom facilities were nice - showers require tokens and are $6 for 7 minutes. Nice little convenience store/coffee shop just up the road at the lodge.

A little tight backing in. My site was very spacious. Just steps away was a beautiful view of the Tetons. Great space for afternoon cocktails!
The flushing toilets were nice. The showers are very clean. You do have to pay for those.

The campground was nice and close to many of the trails in the park. Had plenty of amenities nearby.

Near camp store good. Access the hiking good. Laundry. Cute small beach in Jackson lake

Quiet! Campsites nicely spaced with lots of shrubbery between sites for more privacy. The tent pads are generously sized and flat, parking is also flat if you're sleeping in a rig. Large, private bear boxes for storage. A fox visited me by my campfire each night ❤️ Showers are nice (on a timer). Easy walk to the lake. Convenience store is well stocked with natural food choices, great espresso and wifi. Also offers cheap gas station. The deli offerings at the lodge are good. Grab an early morning breakfast burrito and head up to signal mountain for sunrise for a memorable morning!

Beautiful campground in Grand Teton National Park. Very close to the iconic Oxbow Bend. The sites are spacious and mostly level. Some sites have electricity. There is a dump station in the area, and potable water you can fill tanks with. The sites are not very long so most trailers need to detach from the tow vehicle. The campground sits right on Jackson Lake. Deer, elk, and foxes can often been seen in the area. The bathrooms were clean with running (very cold) water. There were no hand dryers or towels in the bathrooms which seemed strange but at least there was heat. There are public showers but they were closed for the season when I stayed. I had spotty service with Verizon. The nearby Lodge has a nice restaurant, gift store and small general store. There was also a small sink for visitors to dump gray water.

We were here for 2 nights and saw several RV's crash into trees and stakes.   The reservation system says no RV's or trailers over 30 feet.   The lane you drive to your site is very narrow so very little turn radius.  The sites are short so you only have 30 foot length.   One RV was about 37 feet and crashed several trees and hung over the very narrow road.   One pick up backed into a tree trying to fit next to his trailer.

The park is beautiful.  The campground has electric at sites and a dump station and fresh water fill, also short and narrow.  There is a gas station, coffee shop, laundry and shower house close to the dump station and all are very nice.   Being in the park and located at about the middle of the north/south is a plus, but if you are more than 30 feet, pick one of the other campgrounds in the park.  No cell service unless you park in the lot by the lodge.

Campground has showers, laundry, and wifi along with the general store and gas. A nice place to recharge after dispersed camping for a few days. They are doing some construction this fall at the grounds so it was loud during the day. Right on the lake but it is so low you cannot get out to the water.

Good National Park. Lots of amedities. Lots of rules too. Rather small sites but not on top of everyone

This campground is super beautiful! The spots are nice and the bathrooms are clean. The sites are pretty close together though so it's not super private. Also, the showers and laundry are token- based and the token machine only takes exact cash but the atm only gives out $20, so beware. Plus the $3 charge to use the atm

Stayed here 5 nights during our stay in the Tetons. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Lodge is just next door that has a great gift shop. Restaurant has excellent food with beautiful views of the Tetons on the back deck. Clean restrooms and bathhouses (pay showers) with laundry next door. Campsites we’re well kept. Just remember to store food in bear boxes. Campsites we’re also spaced out well with trees surrounding each site. It’s just a short walk to the waters edge of lake. Convenience store has many food, tobacco, camp items as well as gasoline and coffee bar. Wildlife will roam through campground in early and at night. Elk, fox, and coyote came through ours. We’ll worth the stay and will be staying here again.!!

For a single couple, the trade off is huge. Quieter, more privacy, and better views. Wish we'd stayed more nights here than in Yellowstone and will definitely in the future (as well as book a year early to get a water view). Loved how close the bathrooms were with seperate paths through the trees, but wish the doors had latches on bear country. Yes showers are $6, but for the experience? Worth it in comparison to a free shower. With the small campsite there was no wait for showers or the laundry. The store was super well stocked, to the point I'm now willing to forget something to save on room.

The best things about this campground is that it is central in Teton National Park. Since the last time we were here the trees have grown up not allowing except for a few sites a view of beautiful Jackson Lake. The site we were on was not level and there are no showers included in the fee which was high. The reservation system works well and the camp was quiet.

Campsite 12 might be the best campsite in the U.S. with unobstructed views of Jackson Lake. I had never been to the Grand Tetons before and I have to say that there is no comparison between this and Colter Bay. With less than a third of the sites as Colter Bay, signal mountain was blissfully quiet. Signal mountain was a total zoo. Traffic, housekeeping golf carts, huge RV’s. We travelled with an 18ft RV which made fitting into the spot a little challenging but so worth it. Laundry and showers were open until 10. Super clean too. We will return!

I don't want to parrot other's reviews, so please read them, too.

We REALLY like this campground for the following reasons: *the most amazing views *a very short distance from 2 different boat launchas we like to kayaking and paddle boarding. *most sites are pretty private as the campground is in the pines. *great food at restaurant onsite (takeout only as of May 2021) *coffee bar at store *convenient store, gas, beer, gift shop, laundry and paid showers. $6 for 7 min. $1 for each add. 70 seconds.
*centrally located.
*drive, or the 3 mile hike, up to top of signal mountain is so beautiful.

The few things that were a little off: *sites are not level *asphalt pads are in need of repair.
*water not near sites, so be sure to fill up before heading to site. *would have loved more elec. site to keep from having to run the generator.

We have stayed at all the campgrounds in the park that take RVs. Yep. We will definitely be back

First come first served. Get there around 11am to grab a site with a view, there’s only a handful. If those are full get a site near the entrance so you’re close to bathhouses, laundry, store, restaurant. Beach is nice with amazing views! Pay showers are pricy compared to what I’ve seen around the country. Laundry was affordable. Roads and sites are TIGHT! No RV’s over 30 feet allowed! Overall, an amazing campground with trails within a 10 minute drive.

This campground is great but it’s very busy. Some sites are amazing and others are not very private and pretty close together. It really comes down to luck and the early morning rush to get a site can be a bit stressful. If you manage to get a good site you won’t want to leave.

If you’re not a fan of pristine panoramic Mountain View’s mirrored off of the surface of a beautifully clear watered lake that rests beneath pleasant nature flavored pine air then this is not the place for you. This is a mind altering pleasant place experience.

Facilities immaculate, rangers and personnel are courteous and attentive, the general store wants for nothing, the neighboring hikes are plentiful and if taken in the early hours, appropriately sparse.

This is a really nice campground. The soft ground made tent camping comfortable. Clean bathrooms that were lit through the night. Some sites close to Jackson Lake beach access which provide stunning views. Arrived at 6:15am on a Sunday and felt so lucky to find an open spot.

We called 3 nights and enjoyed the experience.  Mother nature at its best.  The rates were reasonable.  Enjoyed cooking out.

Make reservations online before arriving. We visited the campground in August and the campground was full. The campground is family friendly with plenty of activities nearby. Each campsite is surrounded by trees for the most part so there is plenty of room for a hammock and some privacy. The campground is also conveniently located near Jackson Lake. We stayed at three different sites during our visit to the Grand Tetons and this was the best location for car camping in our opinion.

Trailer spots were very roomy, we didn’t have a lake view from camp but just a quick walk down a path and there it was. Lots of spots with electric hook ups. We arrived about 11am and walk up sights were down to about 4, so plan ahead. Great location to explore the Tetons, we would stay here again.

Some of the best views of the Tetons over Jackson Lake are to be had here. The campground stays pretty quiet and has some nice trails to the lake. You are most likely going to see wildlife here. The bathrooms are nice but be prepared to pay. Showers are not free. They wanted $6 for 7 minutes. I’d rather swim in the cold lake. For a non-electric site it was $33 and hookups were an extra $22. We love the Tetons and I understand the amount of people here but this is pricey for the accommodations. We have stayed cheaper in nice RV parks near the beach in resort towns. Our van is now too large to stay at the Jenny Lake campground. Next time we will be likely staying in nearby forest service access areas. We did enjoy the views and trails though.

Despite its size, this campground offers a lot of privacy. Tent pads are set nicely back in the trees. Some pads are artificially leveled for larger tents while others are more suitable for backpacker style tents. The bathroom single taps run warm

This is one of my favorite spots in the Grand Teton area. It's one of the few that actually has a great view. Most spots in the Tetons aren't as accessible to the perfect views of the mountains themselves. Easy access. Great spot!

Signal Mountain campground is my favorite in the park. Some sites have electric and it sits near Jackson Lake so some sites have a nice view. There's restrooms throughout the campground but also nice restrooms and super nice showers/laundry located near the entrance. There is a small store with gas, a restaurant with a killer view, a bar, and a couple gift shops also here. A small lodge provides a nice area to just sit and take in the views. Cabins are also available here.
