The geysers and the hot springs are surreal. My favorites spots were the Grand Prismatic Spring, Mammoth Hot Springs, and Fountain and Artist Paint Pots. I saw elks, bison, grizzly bears, and a wolf. My recommendations are: visit during off season (if you can), book a guided tour if it is your first time in the park, and get the America the Beautiful Pass.

Didn't expect to happen upon snakes fighting. Or snakes at all for that matter. And yay for eternal geysers. I mean, OF is spectacular, but there's uncertainty with those timed eruptions. But the perpetuity of Clepsydra and Black Growler covered that for me. Also didn't expect for this anteater to be tasting rainbows or to be greeted with the-Earth-is-boiling-up scenery. And of course, bison passing within several feet of my car already sold the deal for me. One of the best national parks I've ever been to. Thank you Ulysses Grant for the precedent! Downsides: - long drives between popular attractions. - super crowded. - long, slow moving lines of cars. - crowded restrooms in some places. Need more.

We stayed in this park for 6 days and it was a nice visit. The staff were friendly and generally…read morethe facilities were clean and tidy. One morning the there was a toilet issue in one of the men's rooms and once reported, they jumped on it immediately. There is a typical RV store at the main building along with restrooms, showers, and a laundry facility. There are a few other buildings with restrooms, showers, and laundry facilities in the park as well. Sites were in good shape, being level, and with newer picnic tables. We didn't have any issues with power, water, or sewer hookups. All were easy and standard. The only miss for me was the lack of mowing, which wasn't done during our visit. They could have also used a bit of weed spray for the dandelions throughout the park. This really was a nice stay though and appreciative of the very nice staff that we ran across during our stay. This park is also very nicely located just outside Yellowstone and within an easy walk to town.

What a magical place. So fortunate that had the chance the visit and I can't wait to go back…read more I don't think I can add more to what's been said but I think these tips would help The first time visitor. 1. Yellowstone is a massive park and you'll need to be strategic before you visit as to what you want to experience 2. You will need Bear mace. Get it ahead of time. 3. Give yourself more time than you think. Distances are long, roads are slow, and wildlife jams are common. 4. Arrive early or stay late. Midday (10am-4pm) is busiest. Early mornings and evenings are quieter and best for wildlife You would think this is a no-brainer but I can't even put a number as to how many times international visitors ignored the placards and signs. This is why visitors fall into pools and don't come back. 5. Stay on boardwalks and trails. The ground can be dangerously thin and hot. 6. Never touch thermal features. Water can be near boiling and acidic. 7. Supervise kids closely. Injuries here are serious and often fatal. 8. Leave the animals alone. Keep a safe distance. The animals are not pets. The buffalos and deers let only bears can do serious damage to your vehicle. Imagine what they can do to you. Be respectful and leave them alone. General guidelines Bison, elk, deer: at least 25 yards (23 m) Bears & wolves: at least 100 yards (91 m) Bison are NOT docile. They injure more people than bears. Lastly, keep a plastic bag for your trash in your car and dump properly. Yellowstone has this rule about trash Pack it in, pack it out If you bring it, you take it with you. This includes food scraps, peels, wrappers, and tissues. I learned a lot and left my heart there. Can't wait to go back.

We also enjoyed the nearby area that has a few restaurants and little boat docks on either side of the river where we sat and enjoyed the sun.

Check in was quick. To save you time and energy, do not make the mistake of bringing all your bags when checking in because the cabins where you'll stay at are located at a separate site from this main building where people check in and where the restaurant (I wrote a separate review for this) and shops are. You need to drive to get there after you get huge keys to your cabin. Rocking chairs can be found outside the cabins. The cabin was spacious and clean. It's like a hotel room without a TV. At that time of the year, the temperature was comfortable without using the heater. Just like anything in this area, it is pricey but I had a good experience here.

I had not heard any complaints from our groups regarding use of any of the facilities. The dish/wash area was well kept and included a microwave. We were newbies to the RV scene but everyone one else in our group has had their fair share of that RV camping life. They remained patient when they realized we hadn't checked in while we had been physically present for at least an hour on the reserved site and our camper was on its way. Apparently we were happy campers and so were the rest of our group. Our organizer selected this spot due to the ease of fishing access for the kids, there was this little extended patch of land the kids were able to go to each day. They caught rainbow trout, the kids were proud and the ones who were too young but watching, well, it probably only ignited their interest even more. Our experience was good, everyone in our group of 30+ enjoyed ourselves and noted this is one of the better if not best sites they have had on their family camping trip.

It's a busy campground, and we were lucky to snag a last-minute reservation about a week out. We stayed in site G221. The campground is well-run: there's shared bear storage (though we opted to keep all food and scented items, including water, in our car), the fire pit was great for evenings, the bathrooms were decent, and the dishwashing room was sufficient for basic cleanup. That said, there are a couple of drawbacks. The campsites are quite close to each other, so there's not much privacy. Also, the shower hours are limited -- open only from about 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. -- which was tough since we were often out before dawn and back after 9. And yes, bears are very much around -- one even came through the G loop during the night while we were there. Despite those few things, I'd definitely recommend Grant if you're looking for a convenient base in Yellowstone

We had site A013…read more General campground review: Campsites are small and set close together. Lots of trees. A little annoying that generators are allowed during the day. I liked that the bathrooms and dishwashing closet (I won't dignify that space by calling it a room) had lights on at night. The bathrooms also had hooks, an outlet, and little shelves under the mirrors. For a campground, very lux. Every bathroom/dishwashing building also had a water spigot nearby, great for refilling water bottles. Showers and coin laundry are a short drive out of the campground, in a separate area. They're closed for cleaning from 1:30-3pm. Peak time seems to be around 5-7pm, long lines and the women's shower room was a sauna. A013 site specific review: Fairly close to bathrooms, but not located where people would be traipsing thru. It's also located right next to the road to the lake and picnic area. During the day there were quite a few people and cars passing by on that road. Like all the sites we saw, A013 has partial shade and pull-through parking. The shared-with-A011 bear box was at our site. Picnic benches aren't made of wood, it's like the plasticky composite deck stuff. There was a worn circle or two where someone had obviously set a hot pan down. Two nights we were swarmed with ginormous flying beetles, one went down my shirt. We had spotty Verizon service and zero MetroPC.
