Signal Mountain Campground

Park is amazing and staff was very friendly. Park was clean and dumpsters were emptied regularly. Sites and campground loop 1 was very tight. With a 30’ travel trailer it was not too easy getting parked and sites do not have a lot of space between them. Scenery was great. We spent more time away from camp so the proximity did not affect us too much.

We stayed in site 43 which is nonelectric but we could use a gen from 8-8. 30’ campers are permitted in this site which is quite level but what is not stated are the obstructions and site angle that make it VERY difficult to back into. That being said this site is close to the lake (about 50’-100’) and the views are incredible. The campground is shaded and water is available. BTW we drove through Colter Bay Campground and much preferred the smaller Signal Mountain Campground.

We pulled into Signal Mountain campground after crossing Wyoming through sun, rain, snow, sleet, trucks, cars, deer, antelopes and dinosaurs. Quite a trip. Advisory... Jackson Hole is a shopping mall with antelope horns and cowboy hats. Signal Mountain is a figure eight loop with lots of back-in RV campsites separated by some trees. With the exception of one or two sites at the northern end you can't see much scenery beyond the trees. That said, it's a pleasant spot to base your tour of the region. Our site had full hookups which made it more comfortable. On day 2 the Gods looked kindly on us and the clouds parted revealing the high peaks in all their splendor. Got some terrific shots from Jenny Lake. While in town (Colter Bay), we learned about the water management issue leaving all the boats high and dry for the summer. Strange doings with the local farming community taking water from Jackson Lake. Regardless, this is a spectacular example of the National Park System at it's best. Hopefully it will not follow others which have been "privatized" (translation... turned into corporate profit centers with trees.) We had minimal cell coverage in our site. The nearby General store had good wifi, as did the excellent laundry even closer. Grand Teton is amazing in any weather. Don't miss it!

We stayed in mid August, 2019. The campground is very easy to find. We got our electric only site for sake in the morning but there are plenty open later on Late morning. Are used my husband senior pass for the rate. Our site was very large and trees and brush or between each side. There is a fair amount of road traffic in the morning as people look for their sites, but after that, it is very quiet. It’s a very short walk to the lake which is just gorgeous. Picnic table is up on a flat open surface and was nice for sitting outside. There is a lot of shade at just about every site. Showers cost six dollars for seven minutes But was he time can easily be shared.
Very dog friendly. The staff at the park for a fantastic and extremely helpful. We added the fourth night with ease.
Cell service is minimal, but you can get free Wi-Fi at the lodge. We definitely would stay here again.

After boondocking for several days, we decided to “spring” for electric and showers. Very difficult to find a level site and the sites are VERY close to each other. Folks looking for spots start circling at 7-8am to see who’s leaving. Most vacancies are filled by 10am. Note that showers are extra. Purchase tokens in laundry room for showers and laundry. The good - great location for kayaking and swimming. We found a little beach at the end of a path through the woods. Spent the day there boating and swimming. Picnic tables at each site are set on a level, gravel pad which was nice. Wouldn’t stay again. Overpriced for size and quality of sites.

We had a great site that was one of the bigger sites available that was non-electric. Site 44 had a trail that went out to the lake with a spot to walk down to the water. It was a steep hill but my kids went up and down it with ease. It is right next to site 43 with nothing but a log separating the sites. Great if you’re camping next to someone you know. Bathrooms were clean. Big bear boxes right at each site. I would occasionally receive a text on Verizon but service was mostly non-existent.

This campground is in a beautiful part of the country with snow capped Tetons framing the views. We camped in late June and the mosquitoes were pretty bad. Site #9 was perfect. Pay showers were clean. Easy access. Most sites have trees and plenty of privacy.
Downside is the first come first serve policy, as people can get a little aggressive hunting for a site or trying to grab your site as you leave. Also, the camp store was absolutely insanely overpriced. Make sure you get EVERYTHING you need before you get there...it cost $7 for a half gallon of milk!
Verizon service wasn’t great, but a short walk to the camp store allowed us to briefly check messages.
