Loved camping here. Great site with bear box and easy access to trails, store and laundry. Bathrooms were clean and great to paddle board at String and Leigh Lakes. Easy drive to Jackson and the farmers market was great.

Excellent campground. Has everything you'd want for glamping. Tent sites are nice sized and well maintained. Bathroom in each site grouping. Bear boxes, fire pit, and picnic table provided. Great swimming area, boat launch, and hiking trails. Full service restaurant, laundry facilities, and a grocery/retail store.

Site H 159 very large area for campsite. Close to bathhouse. I haven’t been here in 50 years 90% of campsites are small and right on the street. I was lucky and had a back in site. Bathhouse needed attention. No playground for children. There are dump stations. No hookups. Generators are allowed in this loop at certain times.

Stayed at the tent campground for 3 nights, it was nice and quiet even tho it was the busy season. Loved the site, semi close to others but overall nice. "Comfort station" in our loop was clean, weird female urinal in the bathroom but that's ok. Picked this campground due to availability of showers but didn't realize that even if you camp there you have to pay 5$ for a shower (its open to the public and campers do not get a discount :( sadly). Loved the swimming beach spot, perfect to get a nice dip in and watch the sunrise on the Tetons. The general store was useful for quick items, prices were a lil expensive, they had great ice cream, 50/50 on if they had firewood. Went to the pizzeria one night, delish handmade pizza & local beers! Felt bad throwing away 2 slices as it was only my partner and I sharing a pizza. Overall - if you're new to camping or a seasoned camper like ourselves, come here for a few nights to enjoy some close amenities & good food! Take advantage of the swimming beach! Would love to come back next time I'm out in Wyoming. - A couple from NH

05/30/24 - 6/1/24 OUTSTANDING, TOP KNOTCH CAMPGROUND. We had a fantastic stay here. Easy booking site, Conveniently Located, Very Kind and Helpful Staff. When we came the campground was full. That said one of our favorite things about this campground is the amount of privacy most of the sites offer. Heavily wooded, pitched a tent, nice amount of vehicle parking, very quiet at nite. Day time temps in the 70's, early morning mid 20's, not bad atall camping with a decent sleeping bag. Drinking water, Heated Restrooms and Dishes Cleaning station all within a short walk. Oddly enough our campsite was literally trashed when we arrived with sadly quite a bit of garbage we needed to pick up. This was the only negative thing we had come up and would soly put the Otis on the previous campers.
