Upon entry, staff was extremely friendly. I felt from bears and still had decent space between tent sites. It was a beautiful, quiet area! Will see you again next year!

I visited on the last open day of the campground and loved that it was mostly empty. Lots of tree coverage.
@AnnS5848646 · Camped on Sep 27, 2025 at Campsite #133
The F and G tent-only loops are the best! Quiet and cozy. Having the restaurant and the other Colter Bay services is a bonus. My only complaint is that it's a little pricey compared to other national park campgrounds.

Excellent campground!! We visit every year!

Beautiful campground

Was a very nice place to stay. Everything was great until our check out time.

The check in at Coulter Bay Campground was at ok. Everyone has a bad day but this person was uninspired. The campsite was perfect for my needs. Coulter Bay is far northern part of the park on Lake Jackson and has a number of amenities that Signal Campground does not have. A general store, a Ranger Station, and a visitor center, and boat launches for those wanting that experience.

Rangers and staff were very helpful and nice. Beautiful scenery, had deer walk through our site multiple times. Sites are a little close together, but we had nice/quiet neighbors so it wasnt bad.

September is a very good time to visit
@MichaelM541440 · Camped on Sep 25, 2025 at Campsite #180
Campsite was very spacious. They had me drive down the exit point of the loop so my door would be on the picnic table side of the loop. Close to hiking trails right from the campground. Did the ranger hike and that is highly recommended if you are staying at this campground. Had deer right in the campsite one morning. Great dog walking down main rode into the loops.
@patrickc406034 · Camped on Sep 25, 2025 at Campsite #112
Its so expensive its offensive. 70$ a night for a tent site with no shower or electric. I would actually support private ownership of the land. Everything in the stores is AT LEAST 50% more expensive than Yellowstone and glacier as well. FIREWOOD FIFTEEN DOLLARS A BUNDLE, Terrible.
@DanielE7671140 · Camped on Sep 25, 2025 at Campsite #337
Pull through site with fire pit and bench. Clean site, short walk to beach access after walking down a 15 steep decline. Beach is primarily rocks but was empty.
@DaleB2844532 · Camped on Sep 25, 2025 at Campsite #325
A nice area in the Tetons and appreciate a place to camp. The bathrooms were not clean and overall need updating. I would not keep me from going to this campground. But compared to other state and national campgrounds it is about a 4 out of 10.
@KatieN6543765 · Camped on Sep 24, 2025 at Campsite #299
Wonderful campground and great people working there!
@JoshM4741459 · Camped on Sep 23, 2025 at Campsite #10
Clean and well kept facilities, great access to northern end of the park.
@QuinnS6AA06B39 · Camped on Sep 23, 2025 at Campsite #264
The campground is fine, but the one space we rented for the night was flooded. Stayed the night in our RV and left without ever getting out of it at the site. Arrived after the booth was closed, so not moved to a different site. Site shouldnt be available online if its flooded.
@BrandonO4FB545 · Camped on Sep 23, 2025 at Campsite #103
We planned to stay just one night on our way back from Yellowstone but loved it so much we stayed another. Out of our eight-day trip through the Tetons and Yellowstone, this was by far our favorite campsite.
@MichaelB697476 · Camped on Sep 22, 2025 at Campsite #158
Easy in, easy out, clean bathrooms recommend driving up Signal Hill
@CindyD3288502 · Camped on Sep 22, 2025 at Campsite #168
My favorite campground.
@JesseV2772473 · Camped on Sep 22, 2025 at Campsite #29
A great, cozy campground with lots of amenities. Cant wait to camp here again!
@CathyW5299700 · Camped on Sep 22, 2025 at Campsite #179
We love Colter Bay campground and have camped there many times. The facilities are well maintained.
@JeffC9633298 · Camped on Sep 21, 2025 at Campsite #174
Site is a pull out, level. Reasonable separation from other sites. Loop I restrooms are horrible, filthy (and have been for past two visits).
@SkylarP884F4E7 · Camped on Sep 21, 2025 at Campsite #330
Great location, easy to book, friendly staff, the restaurant had great food & the park was clean & felt safe. Highly recommend
@DuffyFF42D26E8 · Camped on Sep 21, 2025 at Campsite #88
Tried for the RV Park, but landed in the campground instead. Still a very lovely experience . Gorgeous pine smell everywhere. The mountains were covered in rain and clouds, but appeared on the last day - so very much worth the wait. I dont have much to report on the facilities, because we didnt take advantage of them.
@JeffL9591550 · Camped on Sep 20, 2025 at Campsite #74
Nice site in a large campground. Close to bathroom.

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!!!
