Just a gorgeous campground, down a long dirt road, way out of the way. All sites along a river. Great views and wildlife. Stay bear aware.
Tiny little site, lacking in shade. Pit toilet. No amenities. Site somewhat sloped.
Loved it and will definitely stay again!

Nice campground, pretty creek, convenient access to Lamar Valley. A bit dusty and a lot of non-campground traffic through campground.

Site 11. Possibly the best campsite at this campground. Plenty of shade directly on the creek with easy access down to the water. No neighbors on one side. On the other side, neighbors were a little noisy, but probably can’t get any more isolated at this campground. Clean toilet. Never saw the camp host.

We were at campsite 9, which is right along the road, but the campground is so quiet that it didn’t matter. Be prepared to pump your own water from the well! A bison walked right through the campground and set up not too far from us. Great place to experience wildlife in the park.

This was a nice, small campground. Our site (#14) had shade and a great spot for our tent underneath the shade of a big tree. We saw a couple bison hanging out at our campground, but they didn't get too close to our site. One was walking on the camp road though right next to other sites. Sadly, we did not hear any wolves howl at night. That was our big hope and would've made our trip. But we would definitely stay here again. We did get to see some pronghorn running around back out on the main road to the camp road, so that was really cool.

We stayed at site 3 for two nights and had a great time. A few things to consider. First there are a lot of prairie dog beggars who might raid your garbage if given the opportunity. Second, there is not much in the way of shade and bringing a canopy to put over the picnic table would be a good idea. Third, the wind can act up, so stake down that canopy! Finally, the bison cross the creek here and walk by the site, singly and in groups, rather close. If that's a plus, enjoy and keep your distance as best you can. If you think it's too dangerous, skip this location!
