Very good shady campground. Very clean bathrooms. Could use some gravel around the picnic table so it didn't turn to mud when it rains.

Great little campground. NOTE: Site 9 - the description on-line is not correct. Site 9 is now a big through with little shade, not a shaded back-in as described.

Great spot right off the road. Perfect for a stop before/after Yellowstone. Grass is tall between sites which made it very private. Right by the creek. No service. Vault toilets were very clean.

No posting of our reservation. Another camper claimed it was opened. Camphost was not at their rig to clear up situation. Luckily there was another site to pull in. Same held true with friends traveling with us

Sites are spacious. Only one toilet not so good and it’s very smelly and dirty; need to upgrade cleanliness, paint the floor, add a trash can instead of just a plastic bag hanging. No wood available to have a campfire. Would be good to know when host is/is not there; said he was going to town as we pulled in but was not there the next day. Also, hours of operation staffing by volunteers at adjacent Wapiti Ranger Station are not posted. This practice has become common at state and national parks around the country of which many are understaffed and noncommittal about service hours. Please do your jobs and serve the public who support your pay. It’s not okay to not have regular hours posted and supported. We’re all paying for our park systems. Why are the parks not supporting us?

This was a nice, clean CG in a pretty location. Our site (8) was good, not exactly spacious, but the bugs were too bad (late June) to spend much time outside at the site anyway. The next site (9?) has direct river access and no one was there, so we could walk through and enjoy the beautiful river. The host was friendly and helpful.

Very nice campground. Host kept it very clean. You could run 1 water line to the host camp so we wouldn't have to go over to Wapati campground. Lack of water would not keep us from camping there again.

There was no camp host the whole time we were there (4days). Campsites were not maintained. Pit toilets had not been serviced in over a week. Grasses on each site had grown very high and fire rings full of ash and wood.
@VictoriaB313 · Camped on Jun 5, 2021 at Campsite #5
No camp host at all during our four day stay. Grounds had not been mowed in quite a while and pit toilet not serviced in five days. Traffic was loud. I would not recommend this campground.
@RobC281 · Camped on Jun 3, 2021 at Campsite #5
Being near the Shoshone river with lots of hardwood trees made this a good scenic location. The site was flat which made set up easier. There are no hookups, dump station, or even a place to fill up water but that was known and expected. However the price is not too high either at $28. I liked that the sites themselves were not too close to each other so not too much concern about running a generator and disturbing the neighbors. One possible improvement would be to create a walking path all the way to the river. You could get within 50 to 100 feet walking through one of the sites but no closer without running in to various obstacles.

Great chill/low traffic campsite right outside Yellowstone. Camp host could not be found.

Small older campground with quite a few shady sites. Right on the Shoshone River.
Very old single restroom that needs to be replaced. The newer restroom was washed out by flooding and never replaced. Some sites are close to the highway and experience traffic noise. There’s no water available here.

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.
