We stopped here on our way to Grand Teton National Park, stayed here through Coast To Coast, and liked it so well that we stayed on extra days so that we could research Real Estate here in Star Valley. The area is incredibly beautiful with snow-capped mountain peaks, a glacier-fed stream running through the campground, green pastures and crystal-clear air! We actually purchased an RV site here! The people are very friendly, the resort is VERY clean with tidy showers and laundry. We enjoyed the hot tub and ENORMOUS recreation lodge with free lending library. Short trips to Jackson Hole and Soda Springs, ID were easy and fun. We also found a very scenic drive in the mountains to a coal mine area (doesn't sound very scenic, but it was) and discovered a kind of seasonal ghost town tucked away. Small restaurants in town were also friendly and the pizza place on the main street was especially good. A small grocery in town was convenient and had a nice gift shop attached where I found some great buys in Big Sky Bears. Can hardly wait to go back! We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stay at this RV park in a group of "motel type" cabins while visiting family who spend the summer at the park. My comments are concerning the rooms rented at the resort. All rooms include a bath. The lighting above the sinks is poor (one single light bulb). Can't understand how women could do makeup in that lighting. The faucets in the tub/shower are not a single handle type. In other words, getting an extremely hot or burning shower is easily done. Only one of the two plugs at the bathroom sink are GFI. There is minimal furniture for storing belongings if you plan to stay more than one night. No hangers are provided on the clothes rod. There is no closet. Guest Security: They refuse to give out more than one room key. What if you have children going to the pool and adults golfing? They finally placed microwave ovens, coffee makers and toasters in the rooms this year. Furniture and wall decor show its age (early 80's), by the condition they are in. Resort Swimming pool sauna for men did not work in 2005. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.

This is a beautiful park in a peaceful setting. The scenery is awesome in the area. It's close to Jackson Hole and the Tetons. We used RPI for $8 a night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a private resort, available through Coast to Coast and RPI. We stayed here for a
week in September '03. We made our reservations through RPI and had a wonderful time. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. They have many activities available, golf course on site and you're only 50 miles from Jackson Hole, WY. Grass sites, plenty of room between rigs and a beautiful view of the mountains. Very very nice and we'll definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
