The highlights - great location, full hook-ups, clean facilities, beautiful scenery. The downsides - PRICE! Very pricey for unlevel sites and showers are an additional $3.50 each. However, you are paying for location which cant be beat. Very close to the lake, store, Jackson Lodge, all of the Grand Teton visitor centers, and Jackson Hole. All in all, if you are planning to visit Grand Teton, it is worth the money to saty. Expect to do significant leveling. We even had challenges with our tent trailer! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Nice campground with enough room to get slides and awning out. Sites were far from being level but workable. Our site was a short walk to the lake which was nice. No problems with the electricity, water or sewer. Extremely pricey but it has the best location in the Tetons. Cell phone signal was very weak but was able to use our antenna for my computers Aircard (Verizon). Dome satellite wouldn't work here so used our portable dish and that worked just fine. They do NOT allow campfires here so you won't be choking on your neighbors smoke!! Use your Golden Age Pass if you have one for a discount. We would stay here again during the slow season but not in the summer. Very quiet at night! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a very large park, which is full most of the summer. However, it is very quiet. The spaces are adequate size, but none seem to be level – some are almost hill-like. The RV park is very close to the Colter Bay Visitors Center in the Grand Teton National Park. The Center has a very nice Indian craft museum plus the usual ranger programs. Showers are not included, and are located near the RV park office. Restrooms are clean and convenient, with several located around the park. The park is in a heavily wooded pine forest, and sites are close but not excessively so. There is no cable TV or wi-fi, and satellite dish access is problematic due to all of the trees. A very few sites might have a clear shot at the southern sky, but not many. Our Verizon cell phone access was marginal, but the cell phone's broadband was better. The park is about an hour's drive to Jackson where fuel prices are significantly lower than the "convenience store" at the entrance to the RV park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a National Park RV site. Their emphasis is on nature and therefore it is more of a campground with full hookups. The sites are not very level and are kind of tight. The sites and roads are cut into a pine forest so it is beautiful and the views are breathtaking. It is a good central location for visiting Yellowstone and Jackson Hole. Make your reservations early because they fill up fast. We had to book 6 months in advance. Their prices are kind of high but worth the money. We stayed a week and hope to return later. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a destination RV park for touring the Grand Teton Park. It is in a dense lodge pole pine forest with separate (mostly pull-through) sites quite close together. The edge of the lake, with a terrific view of the Tetons, is a short walk away. They advertise WiFi but it can only be used in the cabin office, a 10-20 minute walk from the RV park. The boat tour is a good value. Reservations are a must. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Spaces are nice but kind of tight. Roads narrow but no problems. This is our second visit here and the price has nearly doubled! It was $27.56 in 2004. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground sits beside a smooth, round stone beach with an absolutely breathtaking view of the mountains across Jackson Lake. The view alone is worth the cost. Site specific reservations can't be made, you get what you are assigned. sites were spacious enough, in an old growth lodge pole pine forest. Plenty of room for the kids to bike ride. Showers should be included, but aren't. Park operated horseback riding sells out fast, before we even got there, but the are better options nearby. Try A-OK Coral for a gorgeous ride into the Gros Ventre area. The Visitors center in Jackson Hole has dozens of brochures for others. Most are less costly than the park operation. Staff and park staff were all quite pleasant. We had a white fox in our campsite. Plenty of wildlife- Tons of Prong horn antelope, Moose on the road nearby, grisly bear near a back road to Jackson. We saw lots of wildlife in Yellowstone, including lots of bison half hour drive to the south gate. Jackson Hole is touristy but has plenty of shopping opportunity. Jenny Lake is gorgeous, close by and on the way to Jackson Hole. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The cost to stay here outweighs everything else. Other parks that cost this much have wi-fi, showers, etc. The layout is also not friendly to larger motorcoaches with slides on both sides. Not alot of room between the trees. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is an excellent place to stay while visiting the Tetons. The only reason for the 9 out of 10 rating is to reflect that some of the sites are not level. We were luckily with a very level site, but you may want to make sure you are getting one of the level ones if you need it. All the sites were saw were easy pull through sites that were large enough for all slides and enjoyment. The park is located right on Jackson Lake, and the evening sunsets should not be missed. Wildlife does visit the park during the evening and early morning hours. Make sure all food and cooking items are cleaned up. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
We stayed at this park 16 nights and loved it. The views around the park we outstanding. The people running the park were very helpful. Our phone worked good in this campground. There was no dedicated dog walk so people walked them everywhere. Because of the campgrounds being in bear country, they are very strict about what's left out and will fine violators. We definitely would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Grand Teton is wonderful. Campground extremely tight for Big Rig, without tow. Most sites in trees so no satellite. Better than Yellowstone, so many people stay here and commute to Yellowstone during the day, or to various sites in Grand Tetons. Sewer was higher than motorhome outlet. Needs upgrading for newer and larger units. Electric surge tripped our surge protector, but other units lost many appliances. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed late in the season so got the discounted rate. Campground has many trees and is mostly dirt roads. No amenities that you would find in a private park. We were able to get satellite TV through the trees. Great location for visiting the Tetons. Our site wasn't very level. Animals can be seen when walking the trails. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I think we paid around 50, but I could be wrong on the price. We LOVED this place!! We stayed for 3 nights but would have stayed 3 weeks. The Jr. Ranger program was awesome for my kids, they loved it. The kids also found 50 other kids to race with around the campground. The sites were stacked up like other campgrounds, however with all the trees I didn't feel like we were packed in. We will be back here again! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We loved this CG. In the Teton national park with full hookups. It is true that the roads and sites are a bit tight, but wooded environment makes it feel much more private. Wonderful to sit outside under awning and walk dogs. Steps to Jackson Lake. Aside from driving issues (tight roads with trees) I can't see why anyone would not love this place. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Great park. Very quiet. Kids enjoyed the lake and trails. Sites are very unlevel. It was hard to get around in a 40 ft. motorhome. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Pulling a high profile 5th wheel through these trees got a little scary a couple times. Several branches had to be bent to drive my rig through here and I was worried a little about my roof or clipping a tree around corners. There is no wifi in the campground. They give you a pass to use Jenny Lake Lodge pool which is several miles south of the campground. All the sites are are in the trees and a few down on the end have a view of the bay through trees. Satellite reception would be a miracle. Because of bears, campers are threatened with fines for leaving things outside your camper including water bottles and citronella candles. The rules said "no outdoor cooking" but after speaking with the workers they allowed us to use a propane stove outside to cook food as long as we put it away immediately afterward. There were no campfires allowed which seemed a bit unfair since the adjoining tenter/dry camping section were allowed covered wood burning campstoves. We asked about this also and their rational was that the trailer park sites are "too close together". Our stay was pleasant, and the sites were level enough. 50 amp power stayed strong. There is a gravel beach access on the far end of the campground which is a beautiful area. I don't think it's worth 50.00 a night, but there isn't a lot to choose from. Supply and Demand I guess. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
There are two things to review: 1. the RV park facilities, and 2. the location. 1. The park itself is a pine forest; trees, needles, and little else. There are paths for walking down to the lake. The facilities are on small loops, and as you drive in you wonder if you'll fit-you do. We have a 45'+H2 and we stayed connected for the drive in and at the campsite. 2. The location is pleasant, peaceful, and picturesque. As you walk down hill from your loop campsite, you enter unpon the lake. There is a large, open area covered with small round rocks (which serves as a beach). Across this large lake are the Grand Teton mountains. You cannot buy this for any price, anywhere; just spectacular. Before you make reservations, realize: cell phone, satellite, air card is all very limited. This is a forest, and the store is limited. The drive in and out are big rig friendly, but those of us who expect the amenities we receive elsewhere, need to chill a little while we are here. This is more "camping" than we are used to. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The RV Park was over priced for the amenities it offered. We had to have 50 amp service so we had no choice. I also do not care to pay this much to camp on dirt. We also had difficulty getting our motorhome in the site - eventually had to dig out a post - a post or a tree was our choice. The store, gift shop, visitor's center and the lake were great. Very beautiful area but we will not camp here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Only place to stay in the Grand Tetons with full hookup and 50 amp. Campground had adequate space between sites and the entrance was easy to get in and out. Campground had all amenities: well stocked store, fuel, full hookups and plenty of activities for all ages. Only negatives were that we camped on dirt and the site I was assigned was very difficult to get a big 5th wheel into. Trees and signs in the wrong place. Other than the two negatives and the bear that was in the campground for 3 days, our stay was pleasant and we would return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Beautiful campground in a wooded area next to Colter Village. This campground is within a quarter mile of the grocery store, visitors center, and restaurants. It is pricey considering the amenities. In fact you must pay extra to take a shower. I would stay here again, but will also check other options in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Reading some of the other reviews makes me wonder if some of those folks stayed in the same place we did! This review will address the full-hookup RV park in Grand Teton National Park. (there is also an adjoining primitive campground – a separate facility). Both properties are under the auspices of the Grand Teton Lodge Company, an authorized concessionaire of the National Park. That being said … This is a lovely park in a somewhat primitive, thickly-forested area of the national park. The sites are arranged in wide loops off the main road. We were in loop A, site 16. When we first turned onto the loop to find our site, we wondered how in heaven’s name we’d fit our 38’ fifth wheel in. By proceeding with caution and a bit of resolve, we slipped comfortably into our shaded site among the tall pines – heavenly! The roads & sites are paved, leveling was a bit tricky but manageable. Make no mistake, this is a “wild” national park in a remote area – there are bears and all the attendant hazards of the wild. The park has strict safety regulations to prevent animal encroachment. Stiff fines are in place for violations of those rules. Campfires or fire rings are prohibited, propane or charcoal grills are discouraged. No birdfeeders please. Although this park was full to capacity, the design of the loops provided a sense of privacy and –open space. Each site is provided with a picnic table. The water pressure is excellent (a little high (80#) and the voltage was excellent with no fluctuation or surprise outages. We experienced a very quiet surrounding in spite of the nearby traffic and humanity. The RV park is within short walking distance of the general store, full-service grocery, deli & bakery and Jackson Lake shore. Bad news: Obviously the price. The only discount available is the National Park Golden Age Passport. Because of the trees, there are overhanging branches on some of the sites – larger units are subject to sustain light surface scratches and although most of the larger sites are pull-thru’s – you won’t be zipping in and out of these spaces. There are far too few dumpsters and bath houses for the number of sites. Lots of comings & goings – it’s a busy place in the summer. [We made our reservations for mid-June several months ahead, glad we did – there were no vacancies the entire week we were there.] There is no cable, campsite WiFi or modem. This beautiful high-country retreat is closed in the winter. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is our favorite campground we've ever stayed at. It is located right next to Colter Bay Village which has a wonderful grocery store, activities desk for horseback riding, float trips, whitewater rafting, etc. and is right on Jackson Lake. You are able to rent boats for fishing. The scenery was awesome, the park rangers and staff were very friendly. Yes, maybe the actual sights could've been a little bigger for our 39' motorhome, but our's wasn't that bad. Located approximately half way between the town of Jackson and Yellowstone, I couldn't imagine a better location. We had a bear in the campground the one evening. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!! We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Yellowstone. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Site was nice, but a little pricey. Showers were $3.25, so we used the trailer. This was one of the nicer places to see the Teton's and Yellowstone. I will be staying here in the future instead of going inside Yellowstone. Great service, but overall pretty pricey. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Would never stay here again. Sites are cramped pretty close. Overgrown with trees in some areas that don't allow for awnings or large rv's. Had to trim a few limbs that were scraping my roof. Weird 90 degree inlets for the sewer hook-up that allowed for a little leakage when dumping tanks. The NP campground around the corner is definitely the place to stay at Colter Bay. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park is ok. It is the only one in the area with hook-ups and they know it!! Upon arrival we were unsure if we wanted 2 or 3 nights. We were told it was "dangerous" not to pay for 3 nights if we wanted to stay that long. As it turns out, we decided to leave after 2 nights and asked for a refund. We were told they couldn't do it. This always means they don't want to--they can always give a refund!! We work part time in an RV park so know there is always a way to give refunds!! Has to do with good customer service, and I feel we didn't get it!! We were lead to believe they were full the third night but looked to us like they had plenty of room for that night. There were dogs barking all over the place. People locked their dogs in their RV's while they went fishing for the day and they barked the whole time they were gone. We mentioned this to the staff and they said they would take care of it. Yeah, right!! They obviously don't enforce their own rules!! We checked out the campground while there and were appalled at the way the RV's were stacked along the road. Wouldn't even consider staying there!! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice campground. The sites in the front and the rear have the most space, the ones in the middle are not as wide. All sites are dirt make sure you have leveling materials. Staff is very nice and helpful. Cell phone service is spotty. No TV reception. The rear sites are close to the lake. The very front sites are closet to the store and the gen. are noise. Many hiking trails right from the cg. Overall good park. We will stay there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We vacation at the Colter Bay RV park about every 5th year and have for the last 30 years. It is very scenic, easy access, fairly level sites, good restaurants nearby, walking distance to the lake. Management is courteous and helpful at all times. There is a store and guided tour site in the park also. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We very much enjoyed our time here. Our site was so unlevel would could not completely level our 40ft rig. We would definitely stay here again even though it was pricey. We would want to pick our spot. Some areas are tight. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not many options for rv parks around the Tetons. We were happy with our choice, although the price is very high. The beach was really nice and views of Mt. Moran (from the beach, not the campground) spectacular! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Very Nice CG. Sites are kinda close but not to close. roads are gravel and sites are fairly level. Plenty of pines and trees. We decided to stay a extra couple of days and the staff made arrangements without much of a problem. Close to a store and shopping as well as a visitors center. The view of the Tetons is absolutely wonderful. We plan on going back next year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A fine campground that had a clean laundry and was close to everything we wanted to do in the Grand Teton Park. Campground hosts were very friendly. Several good restaurants/food courts near the campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The sites are big enough for larger RV's and are shaded. It is a little tight, but not a big problem. Staying in the park (Grand Teton) is very nice. You can walk to the visitors center, restraunt, laundry, general store. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Good location in Grand Teton park but over priced. No TV reception, too many trees for Satellite to work, no cell phone coverage in the RV park. The roads, sites and the trees made it very difficult for a 40 ft motorhome. We could hardly get in or out. We would not stay there again. Would be fine for a smaller motorhome. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Big rigs can have a hard time manuevering due to tight turns and trees. Facilities are not maintained as well as one would expect at the high rates they charge. Sewer system was acting up and sewer hook-ups were the older 90 degree bend type. Gravel sites required quite a bit of leveling. This concessionaire operated CG is a good choice only if you must have hook-ups. The nearby NPS operated CG's are a much better value. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We were very happy with our stay at the campground. All the sites were pull-through with full hookups. Most sites are in the shade. The campground is in a great location within the national park and we would definitely stay there again when visiting. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
According to the lady in the reception building, this is a 50 (or so) year old park and it was not to our liking at all. Both the roads and the sites are very narrow. If you like very heavily wooded campgrounds full of pine trees, then this is the place for you, but we found too many trees in all the wrong places. We were barely able to get into our pull-through site and had to back out in order to exit without taking some of the trees and some unwanted dents, scrapes and scratches home with us. The campground is on a lake, but none of the sites actually border or even have a view of the lake. It really wouldn't have mattered when we were there as the entire side of the lake that is closest to the campground was dried right up. For those of you that like campfires, you are not allowed fires at your site-only in designated areas. Given all the trees, the reasoning is understandable. Although many campers like this sort of rustic experience, we would not go back to this campground under any circumstances. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice place. Sort of like a State/National Park campground but with full hookups. You can
walk to the visitor center. There is also a grocery store and restaurant in that vicinity. We were surprised to see that the marina is completely dry, so don't plan on doing anything water-related. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Excellent place to stay. Regular forested campground, but with amenities. Beautiful
location. It also had two other camp areas without hook-ups, one that allowed generators, one that didn't. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Nice store, laundry, showers ($4), gift shop, gas station, auto services. Summer season rate is around $43, rate discounted during September, making it a good deal when you see what the other parks in and around the park charge. Would recommend it to anyone.

Clean campground with campsites somewhat close together. On reflection the campground was not worth the price;after taxes and other fees we paid $47 a night. Clearly the proximity to Grand Teton Park and Yellowstone raise the price. We would not stay there again. June 2003 36' MH We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is centrally located to Grand Teton National Park. It is 30 minutes from Jackson, WY and 30 minutes from Yellowstone NP. It is a large campground with numerous amenities and services that is also part of Grand Teton's major visitor center. It is situated on Jackson Lake, although none of the sites are truly waterfront. The sites are fairly small and heavily wooded. It is a perfect place for a vactions to Grand Teton and Southern parts of Yellowstone. We camped here in a camper.
A nice place to stay before going into Yellowstone. Campground is in the pine trees with plenty of space between units. There were fire rings and picnic tables at each site. Several trailers here belong to the Air Force for their personnel on vacations. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We stayed at this park for 5 days: it is perfectly located between Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Tetons National Park. The access road is paved but watch out for the huge speed bumps. The person at check-in was friendly and helpful and explained the rules of camping in bear country and that the rules were strictly enforced. Our site was very roomy with many trees. It had full hookups but be aware that the electric is only 20 amps and you will need a 20 amp adapter. Most sewer hookups are 8 to 10 inches above the ground so you will need support or a ramp for your sewer hose. Sites have a picnic table and a fire ring. The interior roads are dirt with a few pot holes and can be dusty. There are quite a few sites that could handle big rigs. The bathrooms and showers were old but reasonably clean. There was a laundry with 6 washers and 8 dryers. The washers and dryers each cost $2.00 a load. The store was well stocked and there was gasoline and diesel fuel available. The lodge and restaurant looked very nice but we did not eat there. There are paths to the Snake River; it is about 3 blocks away. There is reportedly good fishing in the river and it looked swimable when the water is low. We very much enjoyed out stay at this park, it is not fancy and it can be dusty when dry, but the great location makes up for it. I am not aware of any other camping in this area with hookups. If you don’t need hookups there are several free national forest campgrounds nearby on Grassy Lake Road. The big negative here is the cost of $50.00 per night plus tax payable in full, in advance. I think the tent sites are $26.00. We would stay here again mostly for the great location. Be sure to visit the Jenny Lake area in the Grand Tetons, drive the one way road and stop at the Jenny Lake overlook: the most scenic area of the Grand Tetons in my opinion. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Overpriced at $50 per night. No Wi-Fi, no cell service. You will have to go about 15 miles south to get cell or Wi-Fi service. Bathrooms were not well maintained, water on the floor, toilet paper scattered about, soap dispensers w/o soap. The good news is that if you don't want to use the national park service campgrounds (no services), Flagg ranch is about the closest campground to south Yellowstone. A special note: the highway from Flagg Ranch to about 15 miles south is being redone, causing about 30 minute delays in both directions. The road is rough & dusty (as of 9/09). We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We truly enjoyed our three night stay at Flagg Ranch. The proximity to Grand Tetons and Yellowstone was perfect. The 1 mile hike to the natural hot springs for a soak was great. The bathrooms were clean and showers hot, in spite of very heavy use. Our site was spacious and we never felt crowded by neighbors. The staff assured we had a site with water and electric next to our cousins with just a tent site. It was a wonderful stay, but the $50 per night and the high cost of everything in the lodge makes me mark down my rating. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
This park is very wooded and the sites crowded together, so there is not much of a view from the sites themselves. However, you can't beat the location, which is between Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park. There is also a small store and restaurant, which we didn't try. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is overpriced. It is a beautiful area, but too far from Yellowstone to go back and forth. Mosquitoes are horrible, so bring lots of bug spray. Bathrooms are very old, although they were clean. We will stay at a campground in the Yellowstone park next time. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
It is a great place to stay a day or two so you can recharge, regroup, and relax. My family had a positive stay. The people were very friendly, helpful and kind. The showers were hot, clean and inviting. The laundry was a welcoming site and there were many to use so the line went fairly quickly. The snake river was close and our group pulled out a wonderful cut throat out that was very tasty. If you want to be in nature and soak up the beauty while you regroup and re-organize then Flagg Ranch is great. The only thing I can say badly would be the vicious mosquito's they have there. Lot's of room to ride your bikes and stretch out. We had a pull thru site and met some really nice people. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I need to echo/emphasize some comments previously made about this campground. #1, the mosquitoes are brutal (no exaggeration). This place is rustic in every sense of the word. It is significantly overpriced. It is way too far away from the popular sights in Yellowstone to be a base for your Yellowstone travels yet it’s situated right next to the highway which means vehicle noise can be heard at times. The power is woefully inadequate, only 20amp and the best we ever saw out of the outlet was 110v and at times it was low enough to damage electronics. Would not power microwaves in either of our 2 RVs nor would it power other common household items. In addition, we lost what power they do provide for 4 hours one day. No cell phone service or wi-fi. Major bridge/road construction is currently ongoing within ½ mile of here, so we listened to heavy equipment back-up beepers, jackhammers, and dump trucks unloading heavy rock for hours during the day. Everything in the store is way overpriced, including fuel which was between 50 cents (gas) and 75 cents (diesel) more than everywhere else (including inside the park). Do not leave any cooler, stove, or trash unattended outside at any time, rangers were ticketing and confiscating items on a daily basis due to the bear hazard. On the good side, the area is flat-beautiful; the dust wasn’t that bad and wouldn’t be an issue at all if folks wouldn’t speed through the campground, and “Bob” the Buffalo is always around the area and even strolled through camp one night, which was cool. We would not camp here again because it is too expensive and too far away from anything located in either national park nearby. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a lovely, well-kept park with big, level sites in the tall pines. The staff is very helpful and allowed us to cancel two days of reservations, which we did because it is a far trek to Yellowstone NP from here. It's a great place to stay on the way, though, and we would stay here again. We camped in a travel trailer. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a pretty nice rustic park if you are on the Teton side. Don't plan to camp here if you are moving on to Yellowstone and expect to come back to the camp. It's too far from Yellowstone and too expensive to go back and forth, and takes hours of you time just negotiating the roads. The spaces are big, the restrooms were good, plenty of hot water and there are a few trails to hike if you want to. Don't get gas here, get gas outside the park. There is no cell phone coverage here and of course no tv reception, fires are ok and the spaces are adequate for comfort and privacy. The only reason for the low rating is the price. It's way overpriced. If you are going to Yellowstone, wait and get another campground and save 20 bucks. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I was surprised at the lack of campgrounds with at least electrical hookups in the area so it is not surprising that the prices are high. The campground was nicer than I expected based on other reviews. The staff was nice. If you go over to the lodge they have very knowledgeable staff that can give you ideas on where to go to fish and see wildlife as well as some of the other lesser known things to see in both the Tetons and Yellowstone. This was a convenient place to camp to see both parks. I paid more for gas here than anywhere else on our trip and recommend getting gas in Yellowstone (or anywhere else). Yes, it was dusty, but this area just does not get enough rain during this time to keep grass growing (which explains the frequent wildfires the whole west experiences at this time of year). The Snake river is within walking distance along the back of the campground, but did not appear to be a good fishing river at least in Aug. The easy pull through sites and abundant trees were nice. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
After reading some of the earlier reviews, I wasn't sure whether to stay at this campground. The previous reviews were a mixed bag (good and bad). I decided to stay assuming the negative reviews were probably people that were never satisfied or pleased. I made the right decision and was not dissappointed. I camped in a 28' RV (first time renter). All the RV sites are pull through, and plenty big. The sites have 20 amp elec, water and dumping. The sites all have a cluster of pine trees, which provided the right amount of shade and privacy. The bathrooms/showers were relatively clean, but lacked general maintenance giving them a run down appearance. The ground, like all of Wyoming is a very dry dirt, creating a great deal of dust - make sure you bring a rug or floor mat. This was our first RV trip, and I didn't think of bringing these items, but thankfully we did have a broom. Right next to the campground is the Flagg Ranch Resort Hotel, which has a gas station, convenience store with camping essentials, gift shop, and restaurant. We cooked our own meals, and never ate at the restaurant, but looked at the menu - it's expensive! The campground location between Yellowstone and Grand Teton is perfect for seeing both parks. Overall we had a very enjoyable experience camping here, and would do it again! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park has a perfect location. However, electricity is at a minimum, we ran our refrigerator and hot water heater on propane. Also, the roads are pure dust. Whenever a car goes by (even at 10 mph) it creates a dust storm. Plan on washing your rig when you leave. We were checked in by college kids who had no information on the area, etc. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Private sites, dusty and dry, dirt surface-everything gets dirty, asked for bear box to store food in - they brought one and then came back and took it away saying they were for tents only???? We have tent campers? Not sure about that policy. For the price they should include the bear box. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This campground is in a perfect location. You can visit Tetons and lower Yellowstone from here. Be prepared for lots of dust and mosquitoes in the summer. The roads and sites are dirt. The staff is college students working here for the summer. They were all nice, but either don't have time or know-how to keep the bathrooms clean. The campground was full most of the ten days we stayed here. You must pay in full when reserving. There is only 20 amp electric. My husband switched the refrigerator to lp gas and we were able to run our air-conditioner monitoring it with an amp meter. We had two campsites across from us that had a very loud, all night domestic fight. We got no sleep that night even with earplugs. The next day we asked the staff to give us our money back as we wanted to go to another campground. This wasn't possible, but they did allow us to move to another side of the campground. It was shared that they had never seen so many beer and liquor bottles in one area when they cleaned out the fire pit. Staff member said, "I knew they must have been up all night. We will talk to them." These campers were not asked to leave. The staff is not available in the evening and quiet hours are not enforced. We are pretty lenient in this regard but loosing sleep night after night got pretty old. Children played until 10 p.m. but adults and teenagers stayed up to all hours. At the same time, we also met a lot of very nice families. We used the bath house. Bring your shower shoes. Exhaust fans are present but not in use in either building. With a lot of campers using the facility it was a steam bath and you were sweating right after you showered. The laundry was cleaned daily. One washer and two dryers were out of order when we arrived, but were later working. Expect everything in the resort to cost three times more than usual. We brought a cooler with us and shopped in West Yellowstone for supplies which is almost 100 miles west. We would work hard to find a different campground if we return to this area. Flagg Ranch also has cabins and a restaurant. The restaurant is reservation only and fairly expensive. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
A potentially relaxing campground seemed a bit overrated for the price. We saw workers constantly cleaning out the fire pits daily and regularly attending to the restrooms/shower facility. Unfortunately the mosquitos were so bad that we could not do anything outside at our site. Only 20 amp electric available. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
A really pretty park located in a stand of lodge pole pines. Being the closest location to Yellowstone Park with sites big enough to handle 30 plus foot rigs is what attracted us to this campground. It is also conveniently located for access to the Grand Tetons and Jackson Hole. Has a great staff that works hard to accommodate your needs. We actually received a call from them when it was too snowy to come to the park. There is a gas station, convenience store, restaurant, lodge and gift shop located next door. There is no cell phone service in most of the area, no TV and no wireless. If you need communications this is the wrong place for you. Avoid buying anything in the convenience store as they are skyrocket high priced. Small Coleman propane bottles $9.19 when you can get them for about $3 where we live. The nearest reasonably priced gas station and grocery is 50 miles away in Jackson. The nearest wireless connection is at the Jackson Lodge south of Flagg Ranch which is well worth the trip. This park has only 110v 20 amp connections. The sewer connection is a little odd too. The connection is a T shape with the inlets located a few inches above ground. This park and surrounding area are expensive so bring supplies with you or buy them down south. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Too much isolation with no cell service, no Wi-Fi, no cable and no TV, we were very isolated with an elderly mom-in-law in another state. Pay phone in the RV park did not work as well as the one in the main lodge. Nearest phone was down by the customer service office for the park not the lodge. But the staff was excellent, knowledgeable, friendly and very courteous. They were from around the US. In June we still got some snow especially at higher elevations. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
America's National Parks, " For the enjoyment of all, and the extreme profit of a few". This park was worth about a third of what they were charging. It only had 20 amp electric, the roads and pads are dirt so it was either dusty or muddy, the sewer connections were outdated and leaked and the laundry was ridiculously overpriced as well. This park is not convenient to any attractions in Tetons or Yellowstone. Colter bay would be a better choice for the Tetons and Madison Junction would be better for Yellowstone attractions. On the positive, it did have trees and was easy to get into for a large RV. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Expensive for what you get, but there are not many choices near the Tetons. One morning I went to all the bathrooms and all were out of toilet paper; I had to go to the main lodge to find toilet paper. There are some nice shade trees, but the roads are dirt and there is not much grass so everything was pretty dusty. There is not much to do at the campground. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
There are not many RV park options this close to Yellowstone, the Tetons and Jackson. So,, this is as good as it gets. The RV park was "a little rugged" and you definitely will know you are “in the woods”. When we were there they only had 20 amp service, so you had to be careful about AC use. A visit to the upscale Flagg Ranch lodge next door is fun, and the lodge is beautifully decorated. There is a gift store in the lodge that has reasonable prices, and a small convenience store at one end of the building. Get ready for high prices at the convenience store. We paid over double price for just about anything we purchased. Thank goodness Yellowstone and the Tetons are so beautiful otherwise these folks would be hurting for business. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We stayed here based on the previous review, but I think they had the wrong park! There is no pool, cable, or wifi as the previous post suggested. This park is in a great location, just south of Yellowstone. The roads are pretty dusty, but they are quite spacious. The Snake River is pretty close by, and there is a convenience store and restaurant on the premises. My husband and son hired the fly fishing guide from the activities desk and had a wonderful time catching cutthroat trout. Overall, it's not as fancy as some parks, but its location made up for lack of ameneties. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We return to this park every year because it’s so great. Nicely laid out in a field with shade trees, spotless and beautifully configured restrooms and showers, well-stocked store, super and clean pool, excellent cable TV, fast ethernet connection, friendly staff; sorry, I’ve run out of superlatives. Would rate it a 10 if it had WI-FI and if the sewer connections were lower, making them useable by rigs with lower sewer outlets. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I'm sorry to say this - but this facility is just ripping you off because there aren't many facilities in the area between Grand Tetons and Yellowstone. It is completely overpriced. Their sites are small, but still, you could put out your awning. There is very little customer service. The day we were there, a large youth group disembarked a bus - must have been 60 boys - the showers were filled from 6 until midnight, and the laundry facilities were stacked up. When they finished, the bathrooms were cluttered with socks, broken glass, and debris. We were only there for a night, but the next day, it still wasn't cleaned up. You could have fires, if you brought your own wood - but they didn't sell firewood at the store. They were out of ice also. For a different price, I might have been able to live with such things. But we were definitely overcharged. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Rustic park with a nice lodge and fuel within short distance. Pros- Park is close to both Yellowstone and Grand Teton Parks. Snake river very close to park, which affords good opportunity to see wildlife (we saw moose, deer, elk, and many birds). Sites are a little narrow but plenty long enough for most campers (40'), much better than Colter Bay. Clean showers and restrooms. Voltage was good, lost power briefly one night. Plenty of shade as most sites are well into the trees. Nice laundry room. Cons- Water was super chlorinated and fouled a filter. Roads are unpaved and can be dusty. Most sewer connections are raised up from the ground with both a 90 and vertical entry. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Being close to Yellowstone Park is a plus, but the campground is so so. They only have 20 amp service and it was very hot when we were there, but couldn't use A/C. You could open the windows for ventilation but the dust from the wind was so bad the whole interior had to be wiped down and cleaned. Then they lost electric due to wind and rain which they could not tell us when it would be restored, so we left and moved on to the Teton area. The campground Ranch name seemed to imply a much better campground than the one we went to. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Highest rates we paid all trip and deffinetly not worth it. Sites are extremely narrow, sewer connections are up hill and the interior roads were a mess. The only saving factor for me, being a fishermen, was the short hike to the Snake river. Skip this campground and travel on down to Colter Bay. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
First I'd like to say that my expectation were high, as they should be for a premium rate of $45.00 a night to park a tent trailer. All right, the campground is not all bad, in fact it's quite lovely. There are a lot of trees so you'll have shade at pretty much every site. There is a fairly well stocked general store at the lodge, an easy walking distance from the campground. The bathrooms and showers were clean (my wife disagrees). Now for my complaints: While we were there, a windstorm knocked out power to the whole area for about 24 hours. Not a big deal, after all, we are camping and I can take a shower in the dark. Well there was no hot water. Apparently, the propane water heater has an electric igniter. All right, I can see that but the lodge and all the cabins had power provided by large generators. When I tried to say something I ended up getting the runaround by a bunch of rather defensive people. So I tried getting a partial refund for that day, well, I'm still trying. By the way, the campground office was closed while the power was out. The other thing that was a little annoying was the amount of dust in the campground. None of the roads or paths is paved and it was very dry, so every time a car or truck drove by, we were engulfed in a big cloud of dust. Pros: shade trees, location, beauty, clean facilities Cons: expensive, poor customer relations, disrespectul employees, very dusty, I expected way better for $45 to park a tent trailer. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Best location for venturing to both Yellowstone and Grand Teton. PROS: Big pines, Big sites, Easy access, Central location, Professional staff, Walking distance to Snake River (on site), On-site food and fuel, View of Tetons from some sites at south and west of park, Full hook-ups without having to deal with Fishing Bridge CG in Yellowstone or the zoo in West Yellowstone. CONS: Nearby road construction (summer 2004), Dusty interior roads, Only 20 amp electric available, While centrally located, expect to drive at least 20 minutes to get anywhere.

We stayed at this cg in our TT for 7 nights. The location is great for visiting Yellowstone NP, GTNP and Jackson. The campground is nice and well kept, the showers and laundry facility are VERY clean and well kept. You are warned about possible bear intrussions but not the mice!! After the first night stay our TT became infested with mice. We stuffed every outside entrance that we could find with aluminum foil and bought mouse traps in Jackson. We spent the rest of our trip hearing (chewing on our TT) and killing mice. We finally killed the last one on our trip home. We ate one meal at the cg Lodge. Our waitress didnt speak english very well. My steak was ordered med/well and came out RAW (and I mean RAW and bleeding). I sent it back only to have it returned under-cooked again (outside was browned this time inside still raw). I "tried" to eat it anyway, after a couple of bites I gave it up. I got sick from eating the under-cooked meat, a yr later Im still having health problems. Although the campground, facilities and location are nice we would not stay here again due to the mice (we know they can't control them) and the damage they caused. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was a nice campground 2 miles south of Yellowstone National Park. The Snake River is a short distance away and makes for a nice family walk. Very busy during the summer months. I would recommend this campground. We camped here in a camper.
Campsites were not clearly marked. Grounds were filthy. Mold on the shower curtain and pealing paint was a real turn off. Wildlife habitat is a dirty stagnate waterway. Only one garbage reception, a garbage truck parked next door to the arcade. Electrical was inadequate, each time another RV plugged in our lights got dimmer. This Park should not be approved by anyone, it should be shut down. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The staff was friendly and helpful at check-in. Sites are gravel and grass and fairly level. The Wi-Fi internet worked very well. No trees so it's satellite friendly. While expensive, there is no real competition other than the few campgrounds in Grand Teton NP itself. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I agree with the other reviewers: this place is way too expensive for what you get. No cable TV, however Wi-Fi works well. It was quiet. Not that well maintained but we were okay for the night. Camp hosts were very friendly and helpful and our site was level. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This place is a total dump. The lot is not maintained, the pool is above ground and old, the spa is empty with countless rings in it, the game room has 5 archaic games with one not working, the restrooms/showers are dark and dingy, the grounds have abandoned cars and 2x4's littering the campground. I'd expect to pay $20 for this place. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Wow: too high priced for an unmaintained park! This sad campground has the potential to be a gold mine; however there are just too many issues. The office management make it clear they are only there to make a sale. Be sure to avoid the large, ugly dumptruck filled with stinking trash. Interior roads are filled with potholes. The sites are not level, too tight and sloppy. The pool is far from sparkling. No trees, but one can enjoy a wildly overgrown hedge blocking the Teton view. No wonder 90% of the campground was vacant, however when we asked to move to another site, office said that only 2 were available. Ridiculous! All other campgrounds were full or we would have left immediately. We suggest you plan in advance to get into one of the campgrounds in Yellowstone. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I would not recommend this RV Park. The roads were washboard and little assistance or knowledge of area was shared. As we entered our site we sank into the mud. Gravel had been placed on the site but hadn't been packed down. We called the office and they couldn't do anything because the owner wasn't available. Asked for another site but they weren't able to accommodate --after several hours more gravel was placed under tires. This park is highly overpriced but is the only one in the area. We would not go back to this RV Park. Management should take a ride to West Yellowstone and visit Grizzly RV Park and take some pointers and fix up their park and the price was also less by a few dollars. Grand Teton Park RV Resort needs a lot of TLC! We camped here in a Motorhome.
What can I say? $380 a week is just plain ridiculous for what this campground is. But what can one do? It’s the only game in town outside of Colter Bay. The campground would not be considered average anywhere: sites are not level, potholes in roads, grass not cut, water pressure low, and trash disposal a long walk. This campground could be made nice. But, it is probably another case of a distant owner only looking for the money to be taken out with none put back in. On a positive side, the camp personnel could not have been nicer, and the WiFi signal was OK for the most part. If you must stay here and pay that price, definitely request the west side of the park and bring your leveling boards. Would recommend driving ten miles to Colter Bay for full hook-ups – a very impressive campground. Wish we had known. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The Grand Teton Park RV Resort is a dump and I would not recommend it to anyone. We forfeited one night's deposit because when we arrived on July 4, 2009 the site we were assigned was next to what appeared to be a permanent resident in the campgrounds with six (6) dogs and weeds growing up all around, we requested another site and that one was not any better. It was next to a large RV and would not allow us to extend our two slides, plus we would have to move a huge log before we could even pull in. After those two episodes the owner would not give us a refund and we chose to forfeit the one night's deposit due to the poor conditions of the campground and the lack of cooperation with the office staff. We would not recommend this campground to anyone. Move on and don't waste your time and money here. It was the most expensive rate we were charged on this visit out west. If a website doesn't have actual pictures of their campground on it's website (which this one did not), then beware. It was a costly lesson to learn. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Helpful staff-person, but it was the highest-priced campground on our trip and offered little other than that to help justify the price. Helped by calling a nearby community's church for us to learn when the services would be that next day. First pointed us to the phonebook when we asked what was available but then when we asked about how to get to the community after finding it in the book they called (twice) to get the times for us - something we were about to do but they jumped in and did it for us. Three out of four of the staff were working through their first day there. Advertisements tout countryside setting and mountain view but very few campsites have any view of the mountains and the grounds were pretty rough (mudholes, uncut grass, all kinds of unused wires and pipes sticking out of the ground where a person would expect to only see an electrical box, a faucet and a drain). Few sites have shade and the mosquitos weren't thick but they were too much for us when the sun started to set. The Wi-Fi was very spotty. Sites shouldn't advertise it unless they can furnish some minimum level of uptime. If it weren't for the help we got we would have rated it even poorer like most others have. (We didn't see the ratings until after we made our decision to stay there.) We stayed at several countryside-like places on our trip and all were kept up better than this one and were 3 to 4 fifths the cost. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The park is not what they advertise. The place is run down and needs alot of clean up. The pool is not heated and the washers and dryers were not working. The price was excessive for what we got. There was no cable hook up which sucks. The management states the cable was taken out because customers were ripping them off. We only stayed a total of 3 days out of two weeks. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campground in a wonderful location. This is the only thing good about it. Way too pricey, unlevel sites, and an absolute pig sty! The entire campground is nothing but mud and potholes and the grass is never cut or trimmed. Unless of course you were to count the horse roaming around the campground grazing on the two foot high grass. The bathrooms were locked at night so you better have your on toilet.I would not stay here again. Go to Colter Bay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is very busy and although the bathrooms were clean, in three of the four toilets (separate rooms) there were problems with the lights. The other issues have been noted - no maintenance, muddy sites. Didn't use the WiFi, so can't speak to that. We decided to move to the national park, but they would not budge on policy for cancellations having to be made by 4:00 PM the day before. (It was about 5:00) We moved anyway. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Location, location that's all this place has. Beautiful view of the Teton Range. Grass / dandelions are about 10" tall. None of the sights are mowed. Most sites are very muddy. They do have full hook ups, cell service and wifi. It is very over priced We camped here in a Motorhome.

I've read the disparaging reviews, and decided that some folks expected a spa-like "resort"? It's not a resort - it's an RV Park in Wyoming, which tend to be dusty or muddy, depending on the weather, although we had ample grass surrounding us. It's amidst beautiful horse ranches with an eye-popping view of the Tetons in the background! I feel the folks who own and run the park were friendly and helpful; and had a sufficiently-stocked convenience store. The WiFIisignal was strong and our site was level. There's a creek that flows through the park, so each section feels nice and "secluded" - it's very quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed our stay and would gladly stay there again! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a good location for exploring the northern park of Teton National Park. Wi-Fi worked well. From the outside row on the west side there is an awesome view of the Tetons. The park is surrounded by horse ranches with large herds grazing in the pastures. The staff was friendly and the store is well stocked. The only dumpster was at the office due to a problem with bears. On the negative side the park is a little shabby and the spaces are very narrow. At the end of May the pool, spa and cookout were not open but I assume this happens during the summer. I felt the park was overpriced for what it offered. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park has a stunning location near the border of Grand Teton National Park. It's too bad the "resort" itself does not live up to its location. It is overpriced for the quality of the facilities. The sites are small and the access roads are narrow. The fire pit at our site was choked with cigarette butts (as were many of the others I observed). Our water hookup was wobbly and leaking. Maintenance did not seem to be a high priority for the management of this park as everything was rundown. The only reason they can charge the fees they do is that there are not a lot of other options. We would not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is way over-priced. We got a discount since it was the end of the season, otherwise the price would have been $60+. The sites are dirt/gravel pull-throughs. The section we were in had two other motorhomes, and the guy in the office put us right next to another motorhome. We would not stay here again. (800) 563-6469 We camped here in a Motorhome.
They need to check Webster's for the definition of "resort". Trust me, this campground is anything but. Sites are filthy & dilapidated. Campground is unkempt, filled with trash & weeds. The homeless would hate it here! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Agree with earlier reviewers, this is a very poor campground in terms of facilities and cost. Had to wait to check-in because the person who handled that was in the back room watching TV. Sites were marked by rotting logs on the ground. The campground is in three sections, two of which are accessible directly from the highway and provide no security. There were very few campers in the park the night we stayed, and it appeared that about half of those were long-term, perhaps workers on the highway construction taking place a few miles away. The rate listed was with a AAA discount. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Big rig friendly is an overstatement. At 45' and towing a 30' trailer we are somewhat limited in this part of the world. Narrow roads and no swing in lots of places. We had to jackknife into the spot to fit. That made access to the sewer a challenge but we gerry rigged it to work. First spot they gave us would have been impossible to drive out of. To change spots in a park that was maybe 15% full seemed to be a huge problem to the staff who seemed un-interested. Once assigned a new spot all seemed to be OK. Very pricey for what you get. Gravel everywhere with some leveling issues. T-mobile phone and Sprint card worked all the time. This is simply an old park with a fabulous view of the Tetons. Access to Tetons, south Yellowstone and Jackson great but not much else. Wouldn't stay again unless it was necessary. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The best word to describe this campground is overpriced. This was the most we paid on our 2 week trip and it was one of the poorer campgrounds. We like swimming pools and will pay extra for one but the pool and hot tub heaters were broken and the water was too cold to get in. We had Internet problems as did other posters to this site. We could connect for a while and then it went dead. The only thing this place has going for it is it's proximity to the national parks. Way overpriced! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nightly rate includes everything, even the "discount" for Good Sam. If you can find another place, stay there, it can't be any worse than Grand Teton RV. They say "big rig" friendly, only problem is they don't know what a big rig is. Narrow dirt roads, narrow & short spaces. No one I dealt with in the store/office seemed to be playing with a full deck. The bad part is that there aren't a lot of choses in that area but if I come back I'll never stay there again. Over $800 for 14 days in '36 fifth wheel. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This park has very little grass, no shade trees. You feel like you are in a non-maintained parking lot as your MH will rock and roll down the bumpy dirt roads. They have poor radius's for turning into your site. The water pressure is very low, we had to compensate with our water pump. The showers are run down, restrooms are clean but very old. We would NOT stay here again, would prefer to camp along side the road. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The rate is after discount. In fairness to this "park", the sites on the east side and west side of this park are far and away better than the sites in the middle. Those are grass, dirt and rock (not gravel). Lots of luck trying to level anything there. This place is extremely over-priced for the value received. Wi-Fi was very spotty. The staff was not very friendly after they checked you in unless they thought you might buy something in the store. The general attitude seemed to be "We are the only RV park close and we certainly know it". If you can find a suitable park elsewhere I suggest you use it even if it is not so conveniently located. We would only use this park again in desperation and I doubt we will ever be that desperate. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is the worst campground I have (almost) stayed in. After we checked in we proceed to the site. The kid in the office drew a line to the wrong side of the pull through site. No big deal; I backed it in. When I got out of the truck to check out what adjustments would be needed, my wife and daughters came to me and said that EVERY eye in the campground was on us. I shrugged it off. What I could not shrug off was the condition of the site. There was no grass but only weeds and my TT was tilted precariously to the left. I would need to lift up the left side 12” to level this out. I looked around and there was dog dirt all over the site. I then made the mistake of walking over to a make shift fire pit, which was a truck rim with 4 pieces of scrap metal welded to make legs. When I looked inside I saw dirty sweat socks and other noxious garbage. My wife attempted to use the lavatory but left stating that they were clogged. From the tear in the corner of her eye and the dry heaves I assume she was understating the problem. This is when our fan club became very interested in us. I am guessing that they were betting on the over/under; on whether we would leave and how long it would take us to decide. No reservations and no idea where to go was a better option than staying there. I left to go the front desk. I explained that these conditions were unacceptable. Their response? “ That not my concern”. I then asked a simple question “you do not care because you’re an employee or you’re the owner who does not care about his business”. His ego required that he tell me that he was the owner. He then reversed the credit card transaction. On my walk back I came upon kids jumping over a drainage ditch which appeared to have raw sewage in it. Upon jumping in my truck I looked at the campground map, only to realize that if I followed it, it would lead us up an embankment that would flip the camper on its side. I then noticed one of our fan club (whose camper was a landscaping trailer with an awning BTW), was not happy that we were leaving, perhaps she bet on the over? We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This was probably the worst campground I have ever stayed in. The grass hadn't been mowed in weeks and it just generally looked dirty. The sites were very unlevel. It had two things going for it - the views of the Grand Tetons and the WIFI worked great. Otherwise.....pick somewhere else! We camped here in a Motorhome.
I was shocked at the road condition and the stalls in the park. They had large holes with mud. The restrooms were a very long way from where we parked. Not good for my Mom who is 86 years old. This camp ground was very run down. If you have to turn around with a tow vehicle you have to disconnect. I can't believe that AAA would give this place a 3 stars. The only good thing about this camp ground is it's convenient if your going into the Grand Tetons! We camped here in a Motorhome.
While this park is not the newest and the best I believe they are serving the area as best they can. They are a year-round, busy campground. Although there are some limitations in the facilities, (you're not paying for a 5-star resort here) they serve their purpose and are reasonable. The national park close by had so many wildlife related restrictions that we were unable to use any facility there. GTP was wonderful and available. Sure, I would have liked a little less dust and gravel, but we had a wonderful time none the less. And the staff was wonderful. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very, very overpriced for the facilities. Roads were unmaintained, hosts had a don't care attitude. While we were checking in we witnessed several unhappy campers ask for their money back and went elsewhere. One of the worst campgrounds I have ever stayed in. This is very sad because the area is so beautiful and it attracts millions of visitors each year. I think manangement knows there aren't a lot of other choices, therefore they don't care!!! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This RV park is one of the worst we have stayed in. We have a large RV (40+) and the roads as well as the access to the sites are horrible. The roads are dirt and very rough. The site we had was a back-in site and we barely fit. My husband was so upset with the facility that we left earlier than planned. The sewer hookups were all above ground and looked like they were in disrepair. There seems to be many full-time resident RVs in the park. I would not recommend this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The reviewers of this campground have been too kind. It is actually worse than they say. I think I have been in a worse spot, but was only charged $6.00. Interior roads are very rough. A little gravel would go a long way, since the sites are mostly dirt. I can only guess how bad it gets after a rainstorm. Our sewer was connected by above-ground PVC pipes that were not cemented together and did not slope downhill. Management said our site was suitable for a 40+' motorcoach and this was simply not true. (To be fair, we saw some sites that we could have at least fit into.) This park is the reason I sought out and joined RVparkreviews.com in hopes of avoiding another like it in the future. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Maintenance is not a word in their vocabulary. The sites are unlevel, muddy, water hookups makeshift, cables all cut or no cable ends, grass all dead, no landscaping, picnic tables aged and in need of replacement, junk all around, fuel and LP prices sky high (30-50% higher than elsewhere)......... Website very misleading. Wish I had looked at RVParkReviews first. Would never stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Called and after reading reviews I called back and cancelled. When I drove by it appears very rustic; over grown desert type terrain. Their vehicle gas was posted at 30 cents more than everyone else in the area. They are not all that close to the parks, but you get the idea they are right in the parks. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Staff rude to registrants, but pleasant if you bought from their store. I had to speak up to get waited on! Only plus was its closeness to the Tetons and airport. No water, or low water pressure. We left early too! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Ok, it is a dry dusty campground but the whole area is under a drought and it is dusty everywhere. The KOA in West Yellowstone had dust and had to water the grass to allow it to survive. The sites have been leveled by putting gravel on the back end of the back in sites and the pull thrus seem pretty level to me. It is not a pretty campground to look at but the views of the mountains is amazing, especially if you are lucky enough to get a back in or pull thru facing them. They have good free wifi that reaches the site. It is a help, as the walk up would be dusty. We got a reservation at the last minute for the 4th of July and the rest of the weekend. It has good power and it is half full. I do not think they cut the grass but then not much more than weeds are growing out here. Would I come back here; yes, but would I look at other places first; yes. I like the Virginian in Jackson and find that very convenient. If they would spend a few dollars to pave the roads or at least gravel them and the sites, they could have a very nice campground. The lady at the desk was very nice and friendly. I guess I was expecting a worse reception. I will say, the maintenance man did not wave, when we drove in, just stopped and stared. We camped here in a Motorhome.
It was absolutely terrible. The sites are so unlevel we were unable to level our rig. There is a junk yard on site as well as junk stacked everywhere. The staff was rude and the owner hung up on me. There was a group of hispanics who had taken up permanent residence in the tent area. The place is the trashiest dump we have ever stayed at. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is one of the worst rv parks I've ever stayed out. Management is extremely rude and hateful. I had kids playing in the dirt and the owner accused them of killing his grass and proceeded to yell at the top of his lungs at them. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This was the worst campground we have ever been to. It was extremely over-priced and certainly not what I expected based on their website. The restrooms were filthy, as were the laundry facilities. The actual site was disgusting. There was no grass or gravel, only un-level dirt. The staff was unfriendly and unhelpful. According to other campers we met there, two staffers quit during our stay because they no longer could handle the volume of complaints. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Lots of litter and trash in the campground. Site was dirty and incredibly uneven, huge holes in the ground. Poolside grill was backed up to the dump station. Worst RV campground I visited in over a year on the road. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The worst management in the RV Park business. This campground is bad service, weeds, gophers and you park on hay. The only thing this place had going was the view, the warm pool and the location. We will never stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is by far the worst campground we have stayed in, their advertisements are very misleading! Unlevel sites, no view from the section where they put big rigs, dirty, run-down, unfriendly, unhelpful staff. Yuk! Will never stay here again, not even conveniently located. We were in a 40' motorhome. P.S. Everyone around us in the campgrounds agreed - were disappointed and felt ripped off. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This RV park is no resort. Very overpriced, laundry facilities dirty, park is very rundown and dumpy, junk everywhere. Staff not very friendly. We will never stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Ditto to all the other reviews. This CG has a great location but nothing else going for it. Everything is outdated. The sites are not level. Visual separation is minimal. Much better options exist in the Colter Bay area or down at Gros Ventre. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This old KOA is overrated, over priced, unlevel, narrow and junky. If you have a big rig look elsewhere! The pay per day WiFi is only good if you go to the office. Duh! Most of the sites face away from the Tetons. The only thing this site has going for it is location. Be sure you have satellite TV because there isn't anything else out there. It is a poor resemblence of their ads. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I would hardly call this a resort. The pull-through sites were not level. The section that they put us in was far away from the playground and pool. There are no trees. The pull-through sites were wide though for your rig and a vehicle side by side. I think they are asking for a LOT of money for what they have. There seemed to be wireless internet there, but I could not connect. We stayed for one night and will not return again for the price they want. The views of the Tetons were nice though. We camped here in a Motorhome.
They use the word resort very losely. This looks like it was a KOA at one time. It does
have a great view of the Tetons from your rigs. Also there is a horse ranch right behind you, no smell just pretty horses running around. There is a store and gas/diesel available. What the park lacks is made up with the views. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

When we arrived they had newly landscaped most their lots. This amounted to a load of dirt dumped and leveled just wide enough to back in. It was a 2 foot drop from your bottom camper step. Also rained that night, glad I had 4WD or I would
have had to stay another night. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Gravel roads and sites. Nice swimming pool and hot tub. Outdoor grill where you can buy
supper. Hamburgers, steaks etc. We had a steak dinner, and it was good. Fire rings and fire wood. Arcade room for the kids. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We used it as a base for Jackson Hole and the south end of Yellowstone We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
