Leaving Yellowstone or heading to it this is a really nice campground. The host from Nebraska has the cleanest vaults for use that I've ever seen! Half the campground is dry camping and the other half has power for an RV.
Camp host Jodi was nicr and was very helpful! We just traveled down from Glacier! Campground was about 25 miles from the entrance to Yellowstone, so a bit far, but they had water and vault toilets. 27 miles from Cody, WY where we could get cell service and wifi. Sites were a nice size and had some First come first served sites available.
Usfs website says closed, but this campground is definitely open. A loop with electric sites, and a loop without. There's a nice bridge and trail beyond the river. There is a fishing day use/parking area as well.
Nice quiet campground between the east entrance of Yellowstone and Cody WY, we spent a week here and enjoyed our stay. We got to see mountain goats on the cliff walls from our campsite. Having the river right there was a bonus.
Great campground on The River's Edge, very peaceful, no traffic sounds. Had a real nice ride at Bill Cody Stables just down the road
