The camp site and camp host (Marty) were great! Our major issue was the specs on the site. Website say's driveway is 35 ft by 11 ft but in reality at best 26 ft by 12 ft. So if you rent/have a trailer, 22 ft is really pushing what you can fit in there plus you're on a 1 lane road with posts stopping you from getting too far on the grass. Besides that you're in the north west part of the park with quite of few people so expect that. Had a great time but would not stay in this camp ground again, way to compact and restrictive for primitive camping.

Enjoyed my stay at Indian creek. Not far from Mammoth hotel and historic fort.
Anyway it was kinda far from main geyser attractions , but park is huge and maybe Canyon village would be better location. Unfortunately it under private management.
If you would like to see wild life Lamar valley is your destination
If you like to hike take Bunsen peak, not far from campground and Petrified forest trail from AllTrails app., you can continue hike to Soecimen ridge total 4 miles out and back. Difficult

Indian Creek campground was great, with clean restrooms and campgrounds, and helpful staff, The spots are a little small and tight with tons of post.
I would stay here again!

Clean campground. Clean vault toilets which is great. Nice site with great stars. On a plus- there was a ranger to check in with which I really like. Some park campgrounds do not have this- you just go to your site and that feels unnerving when in a new place so I really like that. That said: the Ranger was short and this seemed to be prevalent in Yellowstone- the rangers did not have that “I love this park and welcome” vibe as some other NPS have. But this is not a big deal but it’s the only reason I gave it a 4/5. She just seemed irritated with any questions. Beautiful place- great location
