This campground is popular with locals as well as travelers because of the beautiful scenery and wildlife viewing opportunities. It provides the chance unplug and truly relax, as there is no cell phone reception. There are 15 large sites; those along the west loop are a little farther from the road and quieter, and many sites offer a nearby view of the Shoshone River Bear spray is a necessity if you plan to fish the river or do any hiking in the area. It's always worth taking a drive into Yellowstone at both dusk and dawn for maximum wildlife spotting.
