Sheffield Campground

Got here after a long day and just wanted to have a fire and hang out before heading to Yellowstone the next day. The camp host came over and welcomed us, asked if we needed anything, told us about wildlife that had been in the area etc. We were right next to the bathroom but you couldn't even tell. Had a light and scentsy in there. Cleanest vault toilet I've ever been in!

Beautiful small campground, but enough space between spots. Great location very close to south entrance of Yellowstone. You do have to cross a wooden bridge over a creek to get there but lucky for us the creek was low.

Will definitely be staying here again if I'm in the area. Definitely worth more than the $13 we paid. 10/10!

Stream crossing was very deep 3’ but no problem for my lifted off road rig & trailer. $13 per rig per night +$6 each addition vehicle. NP placed temporary bridge over damaged concrete stream crossing (not engineered or rated for heavy rigs) but sturdy enough for small vehicles. Single unisex pit toilet that hasn’t been cleaned in over 9 months. Shit stains everywhere! Pipe corral for horses. Trail head at top of campground. Special permit horse outfitters next to campground. Bears and moose frequent the grounds. Weak cell signal 1–2 bars strength. Tucked between 2 NP’s

Stayed here end of June 2019 and the creek crossing was about 8 inches deep so it scared the Mrs in our minivan we were camping in. Crossing has concrete so you’re good unless you’re really low. Super quiet minus the loud and wonderful creek nearby. Cheaper than staying at the Tetons or Yellowstone campsites also. Just a short drive to both parks also. Animals everywhere and carry bear spray and gun.

My girlfriend and I stayed here starting 8/16/18 to access Yellowstone for 3 days. I am 99% sure we paid 5 a night, not 10. Anywho, the road in is somewhat hard to spot if you don't have the location in your GPS already. The road is dirt from the very beginning and is a tight 1 lane road the entire way. As mentioned in other reviews, I would have been hesitant to take my trailer up this road (22 foot Jayco bumper-pull). I didn't notice the low trees as much as the tight turns, water crossing (steep incline for low trailers) and the one lane road (no way a trailer will be backing up if you meet someone head on). I was in my truck with a tent so we had no issues. The camp filled up every night we were there, but if you arrived before dinner time people usually got a spot. Most people left early in the morning if they were going to. If you continue up the road (you can see this on Google maps as well), there is a second loop area that appeared to be free camping. I'm not sure if you would want to set up camp for a week in this free area, but we didn't see anyone get turned away. We saw the ranger every day we were there checking tags. There is also a good size bear box in every site that we utilized since we were in a tent.

Based on the reviews of this campground, we drove in to check it out Labor Day, 2017. The campground is great. Sites are nice and wide and on Labor Day there was only one person there. The creek crossing is doable, but the trees on the road leading in were close and torn off. Anyone with a tall unit like a fifth wheel or class A motorhome could be taking a chance of damaging their roof. For this reason, we opted not to stay there.
