On the other hand, even when we entered at 6:30am, traffic built up by the time we got to popular locations to the south between the entrance and Old Faithful. Not terribly bad, but enough that we would have started earlier if we could have. Studying traffic apps, it looked like traffic was better entering before 5:30am or maybe even 6am. We never saw bad backups (besides wildlife sightings) going north, or going all the way west between the north and south loops. We never started early enough to see sunrise inside the park. At the entrance, the far right lane was for pre-paid passes. With three other lanes open, the prepaid lane wasnt even twice as fast as the others. It was around two-cars faster when the other lanes were 6 or 8 cars. Pretty efficient. And they give you a useful park map, though you can buy more detailed maps and guidebooks at the park's visitors centers and around town. We used the free ones :-) We felt that the NPS app had info that's easier to access than their website. And believe it when they say cell service is limited to the major sights and visitor centers. Even GPS was spotty. So, after our first couple hours in the park, we made a point to download maps and info before the next leg of the trip, and on the second time in, we downloaded the night before.

    Definitely a must see! There is a new wonder around every turn. We entered from the Northeast using…read morethe Chief Joseph Scenic highway into the Lamar valley- beautiful grasslands where herds of Bison roam and even lay in the road in front of your car! We stayed at the Yellowstone lake inn and cabins which was an excellent location. The park has a loop road in a figure eight, very easy to navigate through the signage could use improvement. We were able to see a lot in 2 days but you need to be able to hike to some of the features. A lot can be seen from your car or a short walk. Be prepared to wait! We were there after Labor Day and it wasn't quite as busy as usual but you still had to wait for a parking place. I downloaded a narrated self tour from Viator that was downloaded to my phone. There is no cell service in all of the park but calls by satellite can be made from your phone in case of emergency. GPS does work well but is slow at times. The tour started from any entrance and picked up your location to continue. It also gave you good directions. With so many geysers and geothermal sites to see, pick what you really want the see as much as you can fit in! Almost 500 miles of roadway in the main loop. 1200 geysers, thousands of steam vents, mud pots, thermal pools- you can't possibly see it all! Enjoyed every minute!

    Yellowstone National Park was well worth the visit. This park is MASSIVE. Due to its size there is…read morenever a shortage of things to do. Expect to drive hours each day as everything is far away. I underestimated how much driving there would be which was a little tough with small children. Make sure you GPS before you get into the park as there is no service. I highly recommend you fill up your gas tank and bring plenty of snacks! They do have food in the park but if you don't like hotdogs and ice cream I suggest you pack some food.

    Amenities | easy check in | family friendly…read more We stayed here one night on our way to Yellowstone. It's a good KOA for families doing a short or long stay. Check in was quick and easy. We booked an rv site that holds a 24ft long vehicle. Our site 444 was at the very end next to a field but within a few minutes walking distance to the trash and bathrooms/showers. Showering and bathrooms is luxury when you're camping, so no complaints. I'm grateful. There are 4 shower stalls and 6 bathroom stalls in the women's restroom. I highly recommend wearing shower footwear because the floors are dirty. One stall had a broken lock, so I think people were only using 3 stalls. Plenty of hooks, counter space, and lights. Our site was mostly level with hookups. So nice to have when it's a hot summer day. I saw they have a coffee stand towards the front, a store, and a nice updated kids playground. This campground is 17 min from the next major town with lots of gas and food options on the way to Yellowstone.

    We stayed here from July 13-18 with both an RV and a tent, and overall had a great experience…read more The RV sites were level, so we didn't even need to use our levelers. Water and electrical hookups were reliable and easy to connect. It was definitely hotter than we expected, so I'd recommend shopping for groceries and drinks before you arrive. Cases of water were over $15 for a 12-pack, so bringing supplies with you will save some money. They have a breakfast shack and coffee shack open from 6:30-9:30 AM, and a dinner shack open from 6:30-9:30 PM, which was convenient. The coffee shack has ice cream too! The highlight for our kids was what they called the "hot pool." There's no hot tub, but the pool is heated and was warm enough that they wanted to swim every day. We also appreciated that the pool stayed open until 10:00 PM, which made for a fun way to end the evenings. The kids also had a blast on the huge jump pad and playground. There was a nice gaga ball pit with the rules clearly posted, and it was always full of kids playing together. There's a dog park on site that's a nice amenity. It would be perfect for most dogs, although it felt a little large for our family's dachshund. One feature we really appreciated was the bathhouse. There were plenty of showers and bathrooms, plus a family shower that made evenings much easier. With seven of us, it was far more convenient than trying to have everyone shower in our small RV. Only complaint would be a little extra cleaning in the showers through the day. The KOA is conveniently located about 15 minutes from the park and only 10 minutes from town, where we found gift shops, ice cream, pizza, grocery stores, and plenty of other essentials. Overall, it's a clean, family-friendly campground with dependable RV hookups, great amenities, and plenty to keep both kids and adults happy. We'd happily stay again.
