What Guests Are Saying
Mammoth Campground is praised for its beautiful scenery, convenient location near Lamar Valley, and friendly hosts who maintain a clean environment. Many campers enjoyed the spacious and accessible sites, as well as the wildlife sightings, particularly elk and bison. However, some visitors noted that only one bathroom was open during their stay, leading to inconvenience, and there were occasional issues with campsite reservations. Overall, it's considered a great spot for exploring Yellowstone, especially in the off-season.

We were there late October and it was quite empty. There were many first come first serve sites available. We picked a pull through site and had a beautiful view. Elk wandered by and we did end up with a mouse guest in our van but it apparently didn’t stay long! It’s wild country with lots of vegetation in the sites so the critters are out looking for warmth! Just beware. Water spigots were accessible for tank fill up. We drove out to see the Mammoth sites as it’s a really long walk from the CG.

As a solo female traveler, I car camped in this campground and felt very safe. It is very close to a civilized area and rangers while also being beautiful and well maintained. The restrooms are wonderful, heated and have toilet paper. There is a place to dispose of trash, storage for bear food and camp tables. It is also very close to the hot springs and lots of wonderful hikes. I loved it here and would definitely recommend to other solo travelers/ women who are looking for somewhere safe to spend the night.

The campground was clean and had lots of space for the two of us. The bathrooms are well maintained and the fact that it is running water is nice. The only downside is that it is rather far from large portions of the park and was the only camping option in late october.

Campsite was good and nice to have a designated area for a tent, although a little pricey considering the park is entering the offseason
