Island Park is quite a rustic campground; there are no pads for the fire ring and picnic table. At a few of the sites, if you have an RV, the table and fire ring are not conveniently located. Everything is well maintained, and the host goes out of her way to be helpful. There are often moose nearby and the setting on West Tensleep Creek is pretty.

Our campground host was friendly and available. I love the hosts in the Bighorns, because they are they are there to talk to if you have questions. It seems alot of campground hosts could learn from the hosts in the Bighorns about customer service, as many are gone or not out and about talking to people like Island Park.

Cozy, lovely little camp area near a small creek. Almost guaranteed to see a moose most days! Can't wait to visit again next year.

The campground is small but nice. We didnt enjoy our stay and left a day early. The area and host were good it was too much traffic. Non stop people coming to use the bathrooms and throwing out trash. They were not staying there.

Deb is a great host. When the water pump went down, she offered bottled water to campers. She was also a good source of information about the surrounding areas. She's a keeper. Also, the camp grounds were in good order.

Island Park is a more rustic campground, no tent pads or gravel table area, but the setting is beautiful. The pit toilet is well maintained and exceptionally clean. The road getting to the campground can be pretty rough if it hasn't been graded in a while. Lots of hiking nearby and stream fishing for brown and brook trout.

This is the best camp ground. Excellent location to see wildlife. What makes this camp spot so fantastic is Deb the camp host. She is absolutely wonderful! She keeps the bathrooms clean, very efficient on gathering trash. She treats you like family. We could not love this place more!! Cant wait to go back!

Our stay at Island Park was fantastic! The scenery is amazing, its quiet, the camp host is friendly, and the bathroom (pit toilet) was super clean. Its close to town (Tensleep) and to West Tensleep Lake so we were able to explore both. We will definitely go back!

Always a wonderful camping experience at Island Park. The bathroom facilities we spotless, it was very obvious that a lot of hard work had gone into the daily maintenance by the camp host.

The two miles to the campground is horrible. Road is hard but very potholed. Needs a grader.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
