Property History
The Honest Truth
Look, this is a campground, not a resort. You get mountain views and elk/deer roaming the grounds, with River View sites delivering a Yellowstone River panorama. It’s a practical setup for budget-minded families and RV travelers who want fast park access, though some sites sit a bit close together. If you’re after seclusion or luxury, this isn’t your spot.
Who Should Skip This
This campground setup isn’t suited for travelers seeking a private, resort-like stay; many sites are clustered with limited spacing.
Booking Insider Tip
River View FHU sites are premium; specify RV length and riverfront preference when booking. Consider River View for views; back-in sites may be quieter. Expect a $150 cleaning fee for Yellowstone River Hideaway and a $300 security deposit at check-in. Booking fee is refundable within 24 hours if fully refundable.
What Guests Say
