It fit in site on pad and pickup fit too. Because of limited septic system park only allows 42 RVs per day to dump. You must have a reservation to dump. Dump station opens after 8AM and is locked at night. Fresh potable water near dump station. Flush toilets. We have Visible and Verizon and both worked fine inside our trailer and used as hotspot.

The next night we moved across the road to D183 which was nicer and on the inside of the loop. Roomier site with picnic table and fire ring and neighbors not too close. Our 22 ft trailer fit in the paved spot but our pick-up truck did not. We parked it sideways in front of the trailer with no issues. Spots had power but no water or sewer. There was a dump station you could use at the entrance.

We stayed in site 31, nice and spacious with peek a boo Teton view. The only issue I had with the site was the location of the fire pit for site 30 was way too close to our site. It felt like they were in our front yard. Their camper was at least 50 feet away, but their fire pit was only 20…just weird. Felt awkward and had to listen to them every night. The staff here are amazing, super helpful, informative, and organized. If you have a camper and are planning to dump on your way out, you need to reserve a spot, as they limit them. It’s also busy in the morning trying to dump. It’s a double dump station, but it’s in line, not side by side, and there’s not much room to go around. Additionally the fresh water fill just ahead of the dump stations and if they don’t pull up far enough, they block the front dump station, and or the driveway for those just dumping trying to get out. It reminds me of people trying to get gas at Costco, just everyone with trailers. The same disaster pulling forward, around etc. I would avoid dumping here unless you have to. Also, it’s kind of out of the way. You have drive an extra 10 miles “around the horn” or through the “back roads” to get here. It was the only one open for trailers this time of year. Also, $50 for no hookups! Would stay here again if it was the only option, otherwise pick another campground.

Check in not bad you cannot dump without a reservation so it doesn’t matter if there’s a dump station as you go in or go out personally felt the campsites were too close together people walking through your campsite from tent campers close to you. No hot water in the bathrooms no showers you’re told to go into Jackson or the Teton national Park to take a shower. Grateful we had the senior pass so that we didn’t have to pay $55 a night for nothing but a little tiny spot and we only have a 23 foot camper.

I’ve stayed here many years prior to Covid. It used to never fill, and no reservations were needed, that has all changed.
Always stay in loop A where you used to see moose.
Noisy with Too many generators.
Camp hosts are nice but rarely seen in campground.
Bathrooms are clean
Would I stay here again? Not likely.

Close to Jackson (10-15 minute drive) & to explore southern part of Tetons.
Very clean toilets.
Bins available.
No showers however we discovered the Rec Centre in Jackson is great for a swim & shower for $7 after a day of hiking. Pool closes at 7pm, showers at 8pm.

Very popular, busy campground. About 15 miles from Jackson between the Grand Teton and Gros Ventre mountain ranges. The Gros Ventre river meanders close to the campground, offering fly fishing, wading, and wildlife spotting. Paved interior roads and sites. Site was a bit tight for our 32 ft class c and tow vehicle. Plenty of space between sites. Lots of scrubby sage brush and narrow leaf cottonwoods. When we arrived there was no water in the entire campground due to pump failure. This was repaired within 24 hours. Washrooms are dated but clean. Cold water only. No showers. Dump station use was by appointment only. Potable water sources was very low pressure so took quite a while to fill our fresh tank. Attended one ranger talk. Was rather slow and focused on global warming. Not what I was hoping for. Good base camp if needs are simple. So much hiking, biking, fishing, and breathing fresh air to be done!

Campground is great! Staff is great, with one exception. This man rides through the CG every evening on a golf cart with his dog. I parked the truck in an area where rocks had been laid to create a parking spot. The third day there he rides through and without stopping, just yells at the top of his lungs like a drill instructor, "GET THAT TRUCK OFF THE GRASS, IF YOU DON"T I WILL TELL THE RANGER!" He didn't stop and identify himself as an employee and ask me to move. Fact is the ranger had driven through twice and had seen my truck parked and made no comment. Two days later the loud mouth jerk came through with an employee on his cart and made the remark loud enough for me to hear, "I made this man move his truck" like it was one of his greatest accomplishments. This man needs serious re-training, until then his skill set lends itself to the laying of rocks for more parking spaces.

This is now a completely developed campground run by the NP. Reservations only online at recreation.gov $38 dry camping, $60 for power. They are really taking advantage of people wanting to camp and charging Jackson prices, pricing people out of the area. ($25 for dry and $35 for power would be appropriate but I think their logic is don’t add more camping spaces just jack up the rates and price people out. Not cool!) Luckily there are still some free public lands camping but is sure looking like that will change soon if trends keep going the way they have been since Covid. I did not stay.
