Is there any wiggle room on the “combined under 30 ft” sites? Trailer is 16 ft, truck is 19 ft.

The newly redone E Loop is great. Surrounded by thick forest, the cement pads in each site are level, fairly wide, and all sites are drive through (in the e loop). Water, power and sewer lines are easily accessible. One of the site staff mentioned that the water pressure is high, be sure to use a pressure regulator.
For RV’ers with slide out(s) on only one side of the RV, any spot in the E loop is perfect. If you have slide outs on both sides, there are several sites in the E Loop that are double wide. You can still fit in the single wide sites, but I hear it can be snug. Bark separates each site. There is 20’ish yards between each cement pads on each side. Great experience, will absolutely be doing again. Bathroom facilities on each side of E loop. Laundry and shower facilities are located next to the registration office.
We use AT&T for cell service and the signal strength was “ehh” - spotty text and email access
For those of you utilizing Starlinks Mobile RV service, it worked perfect!

We arrived May 27, the first day of camping in the renovated campground. In the E section, the roads are paved and very wide, making it easy to get into the sites. Most of E is pull through. The only thing that I can complain about is the width of my site. The sites are concrete with bark chips in between the sites and if you have slides on both sides of your camper, you’ll be walking in the mulch as the pavement is about the same width of your camper with your slides out. There are a few double wide sites, but we didn’t get one and when we got a foot of snow on Memorial Day, it was a little sloppy walking around the rig.
Much to our surprise we have cell service, in fact, there’s service in most of the area between Fishing Bridge and Canyon; not enough to stream, but you can make calls, send texts and check your email. At least that’s the case with AT&T.
The building where you check in is also the laundry and has quite a few coin operated machines. And each person staying in the campground is entitled to one free shower per day in the same building.

My hope is that by the time you read this review, the campground will be closed for this season. The park service is doing major road and bridge repairs and will be closing the bridge after Labor Day. My hope is that they’ll do some major renovation to the E and F and G loops at this time.
Those loops are mud pits with huge pot holes. And get this, if it is not raining, they came around and sprayed the loop roads with more water to make more mud.
Ok, once you get past the mud and potholes, it’s time to deal with your neighbors. We were staggered with neighbors behind and besides. There’s room for your rig and truck or tv. Don’t expect to spend a great day in the park and then come back to your campsite to relax. Not going to happen unless you stay in your rig.
The good news is that this campground is pretty centrally located. Everything is a drive but at least your in the middle of the park. We did ride our bikes down to the visitor center one day - but only once. Between the mud and the construction it was not great.
If you need hook-ups, this is a reasonable place to stay. Hopefully EFG loops will be better next year but I would err on the side of caution and go with a different loop.
Oh, I don’t believe their are camp/loop hosts. Never seen anyone come around. They definitely don’t come to the sites and clean up after someone leaves. During a week, we didn’t see anyone maintaining the sites, loops or park. This is a concessionaire managed park (go figure).

We stayed in G loop, only loop that isn’t paved in this campground. Pot holes are AWFUL! campground needs fire pits and picnic tables. Luckily we didn’t spend much time at the site, left in the morning and returned at night to sleep. Wouldn’t want to spend anytime there. OLD and TIRED. needs a facelift.

The park is absolutely amazing!! There is no WiFi and you will see Verizon LTE bars anywhere from 1-4 bars BUT you can only text and call, the data is really not there. No big deal if your taking time to get out and explore the park but it could be an issue if you really need online to work remotely like myself....

The only reason to consider camping at Fishing Bridge is the fact that you can make a reservation. The sites are VERY close together and poorly maintained.

Xanterra, the private corporation to which management of the campground has been contracted to by the NPS knows that they have 100% fill rates irrespective of campground quality. Loop C is one of the best loops. This said, your neighbor will be 8-10 feet away.

Things are tight, we didn't have enough room to park our tow vehicle next our camper, luckily we could parallel park across the street from our spot. Loops A-D are paved roads with semi-level gravel pads and nice sewer connections, Loops E-G are dirt roads with pot holes and paved pads, but the sewer connections are raised, so you will need to elevate the dump hose.

Thanks to other reviews, we knew what we were getting into, and the campground met those expectations. Loops ABCD have nice smooth paved roads, with uneven gravel sites. Loops EFG have uneven dirt roads with lots of potholes, but nice paved sites. Very strange! We had some trouble backing our 37' motorhome into our site (due to tree proximity) but eventually got it done. Our site was very unlevel so we needed to drive onto some leveling blocks before using our jacks. Our tow car barely fit next to the motorhome on our camping side, leaving no space for anything else. Our view out front was a nice stand of tall pine trees, but of course out the side windows was our neighbor's motorhome just a foot or two away. Given the size of the campground we had plenty of space to walk our dog which was nice. We had no AT&T signal even with our booster. Verizon had good signal, but was completely unusable except for the most basic of functions (e.g. sending a text e-mail). The campground's location is great, which is obviously why we and others stayed there. We spent a week in West Yellowstone and did most of our sight-seeing from there, then stayed two nights in Fishing Bridge to catch a few of the eastern Yellowstone attractions. This plan worked well for us. Price was $48 plus tax came to $54 per night.

From here found a very nice National Forest Service CG outside the North Entrance of Yellowstone N.P. and was finally happy again. You are butt to butt and side to side with your neighbor, not fun for me. Although I will say, I talked to 3 other campers that night and they didn't mind it. One liked that it was full hookups in a National Park and the others liked the convenience to get to sites within the park. For me, not worth it. I could have literally touched my trailer and my neighbors. I was in loop D. I did see that some of the further loops, F and G had what looked like a few more feet between sites.
There is a dump station.
