Beautiful location and close to Yellowstone had a Buffalo go right behind the trailer. No tent camping, grizzly country, camp host said one went through 5 days prior to our arrival. Cooke city is a cute little town you can get wifi at the chamber building. Would have stayed longer but must travel.

The Good: We nabbed a nice site at a busy tourist time, mid day. The campground did not fill up completely. The vault toilet was spotless, and had a rug and hand sanitizer !

The Good: We nabbed a nice site at a busy tourist time, mid day. The campground did not fill up completely. The vault toilet was spotless, and had a rug and hand sanitizer ! Wildflowers were lovely, as was the sound of the creeks rushing water. Loved our shady and very private site with table and fire ring.
The campground is close to town- a mile. You can wing it, follow the telephone poles thru a meadow and into town ....one mile. Or bike the main hwy- which isn't too busy and has a large shoulder. They need to create a walking trail into town !
The bad: Mosquitoes ! Told if we were in the sunny sites, they weren't so bad ! But we chose shade.....

We arrived at Yellowstone too late in the day to get any campsite in the park (even in September) so we drove out the northeast entrance and got a campsite at the first available USFS campground. This campground is around 7400 feet and is set right below the Beartooth Hwy on a hill above Soda Butte Creek. There was noticeable traffic noise during the day but it was very quiet at night. There are 16 sites which were nearly all empty when we arrived at 1:30 pm but were all full by sundown. The sites are in the trees, somewhat separated but not private. There are no hookups, no cell service (Verizon) and our site had no possibility of getting satellite tv.
If the Lamar Valley is the part of the park you want to visit then Soda Butte is fairly convenient, about a 35 minute drive to the valley. However it makes for long distances to anywhere else in the park.
Price listed includes our 50% senior discount.
