Was a good location to visit Yellowstone. Not at all crowed.nce and helpful camp host. We had reservations but not for all of our stay. We were able to move our reservation to just one site. The site even had electricity. Rex Hale can be windy. We would recommend Rex Hale.

Great campground very close to the east entrance of Yellowstone. Extremely quiet, beautiful scenery, the camp host was friendly and I enjoyed talking to him about his former trucking career. There are only vault toilets but if you really need plumbing, there is a rest stop a short drive towards Cody.

Beautiful location and site. We saw a golden eagle nest on the canyon wall. Amazing. Campsite was quiet and clean. Will definitely camp there again.

Tom was an awesome volunteer, super friendly. Campsite was beautiful, right off the river. My wife said the bathrooms were very clean. Amazing fresh, UV purified water on tap. Be aware however that there are almost no trees to speak of.

We liked the openness of this campground so we can get the morning sun. Plus we use a solar panel to keep the battery of our pop-up charged. The other campgrounds are more shaded by lots of trees. The host is a very friendly retired guy from Cody. Very quiet campground. The campground also has a water spigot at the entrance so one can fill up the water tank of an RV with a hose.

Beautiful, quiet, spacious sites with a wonderful camp host.

We have been here several years and love it. The hosts were very friendly and personable. The toilets were immaculate and the park was neatly kept. 9/5-9/9.

Beautiful area. Little tight for my 30’ 5th wheel but we got it in.

@MaritzaP909 · Camped on Jul 29, 2021 at Campsite #22

Rex Hale had wonderful sites. Very big and spaced apart. Close to the river, and a short 17 minute drive to the East Entrance. We had to take pretty long drives into the Yellowstone Park everyday to see everything. Two hour drive to Old Faithful for example. Next time I will stay within the park, this was overwhelming. Outside of that very well kept campground. The bear boxes barely fit a medium cooler, and it is bear country so bring a bear proof cooler. We saw a grizzly about 5 miles west of the campground.

Most beautiful and amazing smelling campsite EVER! Highly recommend site 20 for tent camping. All sites along the river have trail access to it. But it’s very silty and wouldn’t recommend wading. Super spacious and plenty of privacy. Site 22 suited us just right. A very quick and gorgeous 22 minute drive to East Gate of Yellowstone. Great base camp for exploring.

@TheodoreB138 · Camped on Jun 1, 2021 at Campsite #22

We had a great time and very much enjoyed our stay on site 022. All sites were spaced well and afforded excellent views of the surrounding mountains. Ed the camp host was very friendly and helpful in orienting all guests in their stays.

A bonus for us was being able to watch a mountain goat/sheep walk on the cliffs above us one night as we relaxed.

I highly recommend this campground for visiting the greater Yellowstone and Cody region.

@RichardK593 · Camped on May 28, 2021 at Campsite #22

This is a very nice National Forest campground situated along the Shoshone River with sites spaced out nicely and more open than other campgrounds along the highway, well maintained and clean facilities.

@RebeccaL409 · Camped on May 24, 2021 at Campsite #22

This is a sunny campground with some electric sites and also some non-reservable sites. It is very quiet, and there is very little highway noise. If you want shade, look elsewhere, but we enjoyed our stay here. The picnic tables are in bad shape, needing new planks and paint.

@PaulS231 · Camped on Aug 1, 2020 at Campsite #22

This is a beautiful campground in the valley leading up to Yellowstone. One of the nicest FS campgrounds I've stayed in. The host was very friendly and helpful and the latrines were spotless. Some earlier reviews mention the water being off; it is on and potable now.

Great place near Yellowstone NP. Would like a dump station!
