About Lizard Creek Campground

The Lizard Creek Campground is located in the northern portion of Grand Teton National Park (GTNP) and provides a convenient basecamp for campers taking day trips to both Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. This 60-site campground sits on the northern shore of Jackson Lake and offers access to the lake waters and views of the northern Teton Mountain Range. The area is frequented by various park wildlife, large and small as well as a variety of bird species. This Campground is normally one of the last campgrounds to open and first to close for the season in the park and can often see quickly changing weather patterns. The Lizard Creek Campground provides the perfect location for visitors to GTNP looking to avoid the crowds and who don’t need more than the basic amenities.

Absolutely awesome and peaceful campground. Great access to both YNP and GTNP but without the hustle and bustle of the campgrounds in the center of the parks. Great little beach on Jackson lake in the tent loop which is a great spot to catch a sunset. Camp hosts were very helpful as well. There are mosquitos. That is part of camping.

Good little campground on the north side of GTNP. Not much as far as amenities, but do have running water and flush toilets. Great views of northern Jackson Lake. Sites are not private or secluded from the others and you cannot park on them very well even with a small camper. This campground is best for car or tent camping!

This is my favorite campground in the park! Much quieter and a little more remote than the other campgrounds, which I love. Some of the sites have parking pads that are on a slant, so maybe be a little wary of which site you pick if you're not tenting it.

  • This is bear country! Food and bear attractants must not be left unattended at any time (ie, coolers, trash, beverage containers, cooking utensils, health and beauty aids, etc.). All food or attractants must be stored in a hard-sided vehicle or in your site’s provided bear-proof storage box when not being consumed or prepared.
  • Camping accomodations are pet friendly. However, pets cannot be left unattended and are always required to be under control, and on a six-foot leash. Dog runners and pens are not allowed. All pet food and bowls must be treated as a bear attractant and must be properly stored and cannot be left unattended. Please review Campground &amp; National Park Pet Regulations. https://www.nps.gov/grte/planyourvisit/pets.htm
  • The maximum length for a trailer or RV is 25 feet. Parking dimensions vary widely at this campground, please take care when making reservations, to ensure that the site you are reserving will accomodate your equipment.&nbsp;Parking is allowed only in designated parking areas or site pads. Moving barrier logs is prohibited. All vehicles must fit completely on parking pads. Vehicles protruding into roadway will not be accepted. If travelling with a trailer or 5th wheel and the combined length of the towing vehicle and trailer/5th wheel is greater than the length of the driveway, the trailer/5th wheel will have to be diconnected in order to fit in the campsite. In these instances, campers must reserve a "Double Driveway" parking spot or a driveway wide enough to accommodate both the trailer and the vehicle.&nbsp;

  • Maximum one vehicle per site.
  • Maximum two tents per site.&nbsp;&nbsp;
  • Maximum of six occupants per site. This rule is strictly enforced, as we are a smaller campground. If you desire to book a campsite that will accommodate larger groups or gatherings of more than 6 people, please explore options at other campgrounds in the area.&nbsp;
  • Water Hookup Fee: The Utility fee is imposed on all lodging and camping products to defer the higher cost of providing water and sewer in the remote locations in which we operate. The amount of this fee is determined by taking the difference in the cost of providing these services less the comparable cost of similar services in local areas. This fee is reviewed annually and approved by the National Park Service.
  • Fires may not be left unattended and must be contained within the provided fire ring. Fires may be prohibited based upon local restrictions during seasons with elevated fire danger.
  • Only dead and downed wood may be collected. Chainsaws are prohibited.
  • Parking is allowed only in designated parking areas or site pads. Moving barrier logs is prohibited. All vehicles must fit completely on parking pads. Vehicles protruding into roadway will not be accepted.
  • All sites must be left in a clean and welcoming state for the incoming campers with all fires dead out and fire rings free of bear attractants.
  • Roadways are narrow at this campground and backing into certain sites can be difficult. Please look at the pictures provided and read all warnings and need to know info about your site.&nbsp;
