Almost hesitant to share this hidden gem. Once it’s discovered, afraid that privacy (particularly on weekdays) will be a thing of the past!
Eagle Creek is right off the main highway between Cody and the east Yellowstone National Park entrance. The easy access means you do get some road noise but can’t say I remember noticing it. No showers, pets allowed (on leash), clean pit toilets, river views, some pull-through sites.
A few things to be aware of:
* No tent camping. Must have hard sided accommodations because of bear visitation (though we didn’t see/hear any during our two weeks). This is a bigger issue up at Newton Creek campground a few miles up the road.
* There is no internet or phone coverage, which suited us fine.
* The campground host has been there for 15 years and often sets up free firewood during the week.
* There are fishing and horseback riding stables nearby. They are present for a few minutes each day, which is a rather nostalgic sound.
* All sites are FCFS with a 16 day maximum stay before you must camp at another campground. We got there in the middle of summer — peak season for nearby Yellowstone National Park — and had plenty of choice campsites to choose from. On weekends campers from Cody can fill it up but they only stay the two days.
* We have a Roadtrek 170 (about 17-18’ long) and as you can see from photos, there was plenty of room. Saw plenty of long RVs and motor homes.
* Mosquitoes are not a big problem if you have insect repellent.
* Pit toilets are handicap accessible and kept clean daily.
* You get fresh water from old fashioned water pumps!
