Walk along the banks of the river under cottonwood trees and willows to capture that perfect photo of a beaver, moose, elk, bison, or bears. (Be sure to maintain appropriate distance!)

Terrific place off the grid.

What a great place to stay while you explore the Tetons. There are loops that let you use generators. If you are tenting, you may want to avoid those loops. It’s common to see wildlife in the campground. Be prepared to be Bear Aware.

Nice campground close to Jackson and entrance to park

We choose this campground vs other Grand Teton campgrounds because of its location[closer to Jackson] but also expecting to see wild animals. We did not see any wild animals in the campground but saw antelopes while driving Mormon Row and some moose while doing a bike ride from the campground. For those interested in biking, Grand Teton State Park has great bike trails. If looking for a quiet place to spend a few days this is a very good option.

This campground sits right outside Grand Teton National Park. It is a beautiful campground and quiet. I had a handicapped spot next to the bathroom and had electric hookups. No water at the site, no showers in the restroom area. There is a dump station on the way out - you have to reserve it. Paths to walk your dogs, friendly staff.

Great location- expensive for amenities

Great location for the campground, 10 minutes from Mormon Row, 20 minutes from Jackson, WY and Grand Teton National Park. We were placed in an ADA site that was concrete and level with 50/30/20 amp electrical ONLY.

THERE IS NO WATER AT THE CAMPSITES!

We saw at least 5 groups setup camp then have to breakdown to take their RV to the front of the campsite to fill up at the one potable water faucet. It is across from the office and just past the dump stations.

Also, when checking in, you must schedule the day you plan to dump your tanks. A volunteer came on the day of our departure and checked us off the list for reserved dumping that day.

Wonderful location but a bit pricy considering only electric is at the sites.

Toilet Trail

We stayed here for two nights in two different sites (bc they were fully booked). Around check out time (11am), we stopped by our new site, saw that our reservation had been added to the post and that it looked cleaned out. We dropped our (very small) teardrop camper just in the gravel drive. As we were leaving we mentioned this to staff, and the registration person made a big stink about not allowing “early check in”, and that we needed to move our camper out until 12 so the site could be “cleaned”. Then we were told we had to be back before 6 for check in. Not the end of the world, but dude. Calm down. Often a campground will accommodate you an just an hour if you’re leaving for the whole day etc. It was pretty arbitrary. When we returned in the evening, we discovered our new site WAS the trail to the bathroom for much of F loop. 5 different people walked between our camper and us at our fire to get water or go to the bathroom. One guy remarked that it was “crazy that the campground made trails through sites”… but that’s not how trails are made. Not the campground’s fault people have difficulty navigating roads and privacy, but really an atrocious site nonetheless. One of those sites where the moon is eclipsed by the 24 hour bathroom lights and the frogs by farts. Wish there were more of those $20 National Park Service options. Xanterra and GTLC charge $46 for a horrible site. We’ve stayed at Jenny, Lizard, Colter, and Signal, and Gros was the bottom rung. Also, it’s not nearly at proximate to the NP stuff, but charges a lot. The weed whacker fellow takes quiet hours literally, and gets that thing cranking at 8:15am. I’m sure there are some nice sites, but ours was awful, and for the price, too far away and… just kind of bad. If you have the luxury of options while booking, Lizard and Signal were our favorites.

Great campground with easy access to Jackson and South Grand Teton

I car camped here with a friend while we fished and explored Grand Teton.

The campground is tucked into bunches of cottonwood trees and sage brush. The sites offer little cover between spots, so you will see your neighbors.

Sites closer to the access road have great views of the Tetons but the ones in the middle of the loops are less scenic.

Each site has the basics needed with a fire ring, a picnic table, and a large bear box.

Facilities were clean and the staff was friendly.

This campground wins for me as a functional campsite with easy access to the attractions of the southern end of the park, and a fast trip to Jackson.

The tent sites at least for D are quite small. I would avoid site 172 in loop D (where we stayed) as it’s situated right next to the bathroom and the lights hit the tent site all night.

Worn out but functional. Nice staff.

Stayed here for two nights just prior to Memorial day. The campsite itself was ok, a bit close to neighbors but that's ok. The issues I had were the picnic table was probably 20 years old and falling apart. The fire pit had a lot of half burned logs and ashes. While walking my dog he was attacked by two off-leash dogs which was no fun of course but no harm just a good scare for everyone thanks to irresponsible dog owners however I saw more than a few loose dogs and no enforcement of the dog rules which always sucks as a responsible owner myself since this is exactly why dog rules have become more strict than ever. Anyway, had a generally OK experience here but for the price I expect better.

Great basecamp for Jackson & Teton

Very pleased with this campground. Some sites had nice views. We had a back-in site that was facing the Gros Ventre wilderness. It was fun to see mule deer hanging out behind our site. We actually saw moose daily near the entrance. This site was an easy drive to many of the best places to visit in Grand Teton, and wasn’t too bad of a basecamp for a visit into Yellowstone, although, if we did it over again, we would’ve relocated closer to Yellowstone for that part of our trip. The campground bathrooms were plumbed, very clean and stocked with TP, paper towels, hand soap. No showers at all on this campground. No water hookup at site, so if you’re in an RV plan to fill at the entrance. Dump station is limited to 40ish dumps for the whole campground per day so you have to reserve in advance for the days you plan to dump with the office. This is a reservation only campground currently and is not first come first serve. Reservation process was very easy online. When we booked in advance there were plenty of sites but it was quite full once we were there so I don’t recommend waiting too late before you book. Fun things to see, be sure to check out Moose-Wilson road if it’s not closed for the season when you visit. Jackson Hole is a fun touristy downtown scene when you’re ready to get out of the wilderness for a bit. Jenny Lake had the best views of Grand Teton.

Great Campground!

Let me start by saying I hated the overall vibe in Grand Teton NP. People were selfish, pushy, rude. Everything was set up there for the most selfish to win. We came here after a stay at Yellowstone and thought we would try our hand at a small first-come-first-serve campground. We woke up at like 2 in the morning and got to a wait and frenzy kind of weirdness where people just wasted gas driving in circles to rush to the first spot they could find someone leaving. I wanted nothing to do with that so we left and started looking at other options. We pulled into Gros Ventre and they still had spots, thank goodness. 

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Our site was awesome with a path back to a quieter area for the tent. A staffer told us to watch for a moose cow and baby that had been oft seen lately, but I never did see them. Excpet I MIGHT have seen moose legs through the open flap of our tent haha.

You can walk to the river and there are endless stones to practice skipping. There's a better local vibe in this campground that is way better than the rest of the park. The bathrooms are nice - flush toilets and running water. No showers. A flushing drain for your dish water. Bear boxes for each site.
