Very peaceful and quiet campground. Clean and well-lit restrooms! Good location while visiting Yellowstone or Cody, Wyoming.

Great campground. Very nicely kept. The park host was extremely helpful and kind. Btw there is a freshwater fill just beyond the sign in area. My only complaint is I wish you would provide firewood for sale at this campground.

I was harassed about using a chainsaw for down and dead firewood (perfectly legal, and it was all straightened out after I had to show them the regulations... ), but then clear and obvious violations by other campers (such as dogs off leash terrorizing around) went completely ignored. I loved our camp site, and overall everything was just fine... just didn't like being scrutinized for following regulations while others were being ignored for breaking them. If the forest service keeps it up though, eventually scratching your butt will be against some regulation or another. It's getting ridiculous.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
