Amazing experience here. Beautiful campground with plenty of trees for shade. A deer walked thru our campsite, around dinner time a blackbear also walked thru the campgrounds, so awesome to see. At night we listened to a pack of wolves howling. Water spigot and restrooms close by. Mammoth is also extremely close if you need to run to the general store for anything. Definitely going back. I've never heard wolves that close, howling under the moon! Amazing experience. So glad we chose this campsite.

Great campground. Very quiet. Small sites, but we fit our 38' fiver. No generators, so our 1.2Kw battery was key. Only a little solar production. Site was tight, rustic so a little unlevel. Bears an issue, so trash and recycling and grill and griddle all had to go into bear proof box. Lots of picnic and fireplace space.

it was very organized, and the site was easily the most comfortable for tenting than any other campground we had on our trip up to Banff and back to Utah. I also really appreciated the trash had recycling options. Good all around experience.

What a beautiful campground! We stayed Monday-Friday and had a great time using the campsite as a base camp while we visited the sights at Yellowstone. Our particular campsite had a fire pit that was raised off the ground 2-3 feet which made trying to cook on the grill difficult with the base of the fire so far below the grill. We had a Dutch oven and some charcoal and were able to cook what we needed inside the pit and other foods on our propane grill. The mosquitoes were a bit annoying but sometimes that’s the case camping. Over all our stay was great. The site has a good mix of open areas and shade. Only real complaint is the site was listed as having space for 3 vehicles and we could hardly get two in the parking space, we had to park in a T configuration because they would not fit side by side. (A small 7ft wide trailer and a ford expedition). There are no showers and the campground only has vault toilets and some water spigots at various sites. This was not a bother for us but depending on how you like to camp the vault toilets can some times be a little nasty in the heat of the day. The park staff was wonderful, they do seem to make rounds often keeping an eye on the campground. You will also not find any cell service with at least AT&T. This was great not having the kids nag for phones or screen time and really focused on playing other ways and enjoying the outdoors. The lack of service was only cumbersome when trying to look up park information to plan out the next day. I recommend you have your itinerary ready before hand or plan on driving 20-30 minutes (one way) to mammoth springs area to use the visitor WiFi to get internet access. Just book a site already, plan ahead, and go make some memories!
