Excellent location! I spend time watching wildlife in Lamar, and Slough Creek made an excellent basecamp. Lots of wildlife including birds, black bears, and bison around the campground. Sites 4-7 are all close together but everyone was friendly and respectful. Camp hosts are great. I hope to get a site again.

This was the third campsite we stayed at during our out west trip from Kentucky. This was our second favorite campground simply due to its location within the park. Very isolated and was nice to have a spot away from the more popular areas. If you're looking to get up early for wildlife viewing, this is the place to stay at. The host was super friendly and nice. Gave us good recommendations. The biggest negative was how close you are to your neighbors. Some of the other sites offered a bit more privacy. It was fine for what we needed. Just sleeping our van and then getting up early for some wildlife viewing in the valley. I would definitely come here again. Didn't use the vault toilets so no observations there. No cell service but star linked worked great.

We where lucky enough to be able to stay for 3 nights at this campground. Starting our holiday we only where able to reserve 1 night at a tight spot, but because of last minute cancellations in the week before we would be arriving, and the outstanding notification for new openings, we managed to change spot and move from 1 to 3 nights! What a fantastic place it is! Nature at its finest. Nice creek (also when your site is not next to it), wildlife and very nice hosts as well. At the start of the unpaved road to it, there is a wolf-watching hotspot (with scopes but visible). So close to the serengeti of America! Compliments for the restrooms where you expect a large smell, but you don't smell anything nasty.

Only draw back was lack of water, otherwise this is the perfect location for wildlife viewing. So hard to get a reservation in, frustrating

One of the best spots weve stayed, loved being next to the creek. It was windy the night we stayed though. That said, it seemed to have by far the most bear activity of the campsites in Yellowstone. Posters all over the campground and the host came up to make sure we were near safe. Very glad to be in an RV, dont think Id tent camp here

Quiet and remote campground with bison everywhere
@MeganP7130573 · Camped on Jul 23, 2025 at Campsite #14
Great location, love being so close to Lamar Valley. The campground is quiet, the host is very nice. The bathrooms are pit toilets but kept clean. Love camping here
@KellyK9785145 · Camped on Jul 21, 2025 at Campsite #12
This is my 3rd year finally being able to get a spot in Slough and it's by far my favorite place to camp! Ginnie and Charlie are the BEST hosts I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and I love that this campground only has 16 spots and is so remote from anything else! I stayed in 7 different spots over 14 days and each one was great! The bathrooms are super clean and always well stocked, the spots are always well kept and offer level places for my van and we even had bears and bison come through the campground!Best spot ever if you can get a space here!

The camp host was great, very helpful. The campground was nice and well maintained. Our particular site doesnt really have a tent pad but we made it work.
@ColtonYF23CD86 · Camped on Jul 4, 2025 at Campsite #8
Spent only 1 night here but it was magical. Easily the best campsite in the park and the host was very nice.
@JamesT8733204 · Camped on Jun 30, 2025 at Campsite #7
Beautiful campground with awesome views
@AMYS5542485 · Camped on Jun 25, 2025 at Campsite #13
The site was beautiful and set up nicely and the campground was quiet in the evenings and early mornings. Plus, such amazing hosts! Charlie and Ginny were helpful, kind, and fun to talk to. I will mention that sites particularly along the creek can have lots of mosquitoes, so come prepared. Also, remember this is a non-generator campsite with very few sites that can be reserved that fit mid to larger rvs, so come prepared with your solar panels if needed and make sure you will fit (worth scoping it out ahead of time if you are able).
@KellyK9785145 · Camped on Jun 22, 2025 at Campsite #11
The camp hosts are fabulous and the location can't be beat! Thank you Ginnie and Charlie!
@LeoPA06E39EDC9 · Camped on Jun 18, 2025 at Campsite #3
A wonderful experience. Sites 1-4 are prime, open and next to the creek. The other sites are pretty close together and are more so in the trees. Wonderful camp hosts and a great location overall to see the Wildlife in Lamar Valley especially when waking up at 5am in order to do so (entire campground is around 20 minutes away from Lamar). Great spot for stargazing as there is no light pollution anywhere!
@EllenH5197529 · Camped on Oct 7, 2024 at Campsite #3
Great place, great nature, super friendly campinghost!

Very peaceful and serene
@CaseyK90F082B3 · Camped on Sep 19, 2024 at Campsite #2
Amazing camp hosts and you couldn't ask for a more beautiful place to camp right along the creek!
@DirkSBC35D33AE · Camped on Sep 13, 2024 at Campsite #1
Campsite and location was wonderful. Helpful and friendly camp hosts. Site 1, while it didnt have a tent pad, had plenty of space for a larger 4 person tent and vehicle.
@JerryS8315429 · Camped on Sep 12, 2024 at Campsite #9
Clean, quiet campsite in a lovely setting
@DeniseTC39E770 · Camped on Sep 4, 2024 at Campsite #4
This campground was the perfect location for us, close to the action in Lamar Valley. The camp host was THE BEST, so helpful and friendly. The sites I eventually got were perfect for watching the nightly Beaver action. I loved our stay at this campground.
@GusK86EBC62C55 · Camped on Sep 3, 2024 at Campsite #10
It was an unexpected pleasure. Next time we are in the area, we will reserve it for more days in a row. The camp host was very friendly and a pleasure to deal with
@ShellyT7DABE59 · Camped on Sep 3, 2024 at Campsite #4
We absolutely loved our stay and definitely will return our Hosts were so friendly and welcoming.
@RolandE3E5BF07 · Camped on Sep 3, 2024 at Campsite #8

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!!!
