This is a basic forest service campground. Potable water, bear boxes and pit toilets. We have a big rig and stayed in overflow. This is a home base campground to visit the amazing area. There is dispersed camping down the road, but since there was alot of rain in the forecast, we opted for the gravel overflow area. The highway quiets down at night, so it is very peaceful for sleeping. Hatchet Resort is next door for meals and/or fuel if desired. It is 8 miles from the Northern entrance into GTNP near Jackson Lake. We paid Senior Pass rate on overflow fees. The limit is 16 days, so we opted to stay for the full time since potable water was present.
This dispersed camping is a bit out of the way off of 40. Super quiet, one other camper there in a tent. Go through the gate, be sure to leave it closed. We found a great spot at 65'.
