What Guests Are Saying
Big Game Campground offers a quiet and shady environment with very clean bathrooms. However, adding gravel around the picnic tables would improve the experience by preventing mud during rain. Overall, it's a pleasant camping spot.

Quiet, small campground on the river; just what we needed to relax after a day in Yellowstone.

Excellent campsite. Most sites are separated by trees. I'd come back here again.

There was no camp host the whole time we were there (4days). Campsites were not maintained. Pit toilets had not been serviced in over a week. Grasses on each site had grown very high and fire rings full of ash and wood.

Very nice campground. Host kept it very clean. You could run 1 water line to the host camp so we wouldn't have to go over to Wapati campground. Lack of water would not keep us from camping there again.

No posting of our reservation. Another camper claimed it was opened. Camphost was not at their rig to clear up situation. Luckily there was another site to pull in. Same held true with friends traveling with us
