Paid $24 + $6 for towed vehicle. Stayed Tuesday night, lots of open sites, only 3 pull thrus in the whole campground though. Potable water from spigots by the pit toilets Very quiet, great lake, easy access to town. Dump station is reportedly at the wastewater treatment facility, L on 9, L on Swan mountain rd, then immediate L into wastewater treatment facility. Will check it out in the morning. Very sunny, not much shade, sites have fire ring and picnic table.

This is a lovely county park with water and electric hookups, lots of trees and shade, about 5 degrees cooler than cities to east. Water is located between sites a considerable distance away but one 50’ hose is provided. You’ll need to hook your own hose to the site hose at lower numbered sites. $22 rate is for out of state camping, they also offer a discounted weekly rate, but 14 day limit is not flexible. 16 days between stays. Clean, showers and flush toilets, lots of hiking trails nearby. Very popular, you’ll need a reservation for weekends. Not all sites are very level, 18 seemed to be the least level. Website has length and width of asphalt pad. Grill is sometimes located far from site, not sure why.

Road in good but lots of washboards, 10mph max. Parked off 707af, lots of people camped on widely dispersed sites. Total seclusion, gorgeous views from high meadow. Lots of birds and cows, no visible wildlife but not camped near stream. Turned off 707 when road became too steep for our comfort zone. Very windy, don’t camp broadside to wind. Fire rings are only evidence of usage.

Madison and Mammoth were the only campgrounds open before May 17 in park and filled before noon. You can see Mammoth from the road and it was not only full but looked like a sardine tin. This is a lovely alternative campground and we ended up staying here our whole visit, which was shortened by rain. Road up is very steep but definitely doable. Designated sites without pads, you just drive onto the grass. Creek running by, buffalo in campground every night. Peaceful and quiet. Heavily used, we stopped about 2pm the first night and there were lots of people coming in looking for a site in the early evening, with no luck. Better than staying in the park actually. We will camp here again when we return to Yellowstone. No cell service at all, but there isn’t any to speak of in Yellowstone either.

Camping sites are at the end of the road, slightly above lake and without individual lake access. Sites along lake edge appear to be day use, but 3 or 4 trailers were parked there overnight. Sign asks for $10/night, but the camp host was nowhere to be found and there was no place to leave the fee, so we left without paying. There appear to be plenty of trout in the lake, with multiple fishing piers scattered around the lake and all fishers had a string of trout. Extremely quiet, lots of birds and waterfowl. Pit toilets, hand pump has sign “non-potable”. Gravel road for about a mile, very passable but enough washboards to make you go really slow. Our table had fish guts left all over it, didn’t check condition of toilets as we are self contained. Most campgrounds nearby aren’t open yet, so possibly we were there before opening. No campfires sign from May 10 to sometime in October. Most camp sites had picnic tables, grill, fire ring. Sites are all slightly sloping.

Arrived on a Thursday evening, lots of available spaces, very quiet, tons of coyotes yipping at night so watch your pets. Friday evening the campground filled to capacity, loud talking and squealing/giggling until 4am. Full on Saturday too, but music turned off at 10 and it was fairly quiet. Many spots have partial shade, water is available at each campsite but rules says you are not to “hook up”. Potable water available at dump station. Very clean and well maintained. About 30 minute drive from Las Vegas.

Stopped here just to sleep and continue driving in the morning. Large rv/bus/semi lot, first driveway is flat, technically the entrance. 2nd driveway is steep, be careful with your hitch. 2nd driveway is technically the exit but you want enter there so your head will be uphill if you’re not going to bother to level. 1 semi and a travel trailer at 8pm. 5 trucks when we woke up at 6:30. The Archway itself looks really interesting. Would love to see inside but we’re in a hurry, plus it’s $12 each. Plan on stopping again when we don’t have a deadline. Perkins restaurant and McDonald’s 3 miles east in kearney plus gas/diesel. No facilities at parking lot. Lots of highway noise.

Used the dry camping sites, so no charge. There also are electric only and full hook up, see previous reviews. Gravel lot, very quiet and peaceful, dump station and potable water available too. 4 day limit, perfect spot to visit a student going to the university. Dry sites are sunny, good for solar. Only 4 stars for site quality because you’re definitely not in a natural setting. Right in downtown Moscow.

Very quiet, one camper/hiker occupying one site when we arrived, but must be out on trail. Trailhead and parking lot located just outside campground entrance. County 4 is gravel road, as well as 23. There are at least 5 pull through sites, we chose one in the sun for solar and a little warmth. Campground is free Nov 1-May 1. There are 4 sites in the center of the loop that arent highly visible, all back in. 12 is opposite the parking for the water pump. 13-15 are on an unmarked dirt track before the loop turns. 12 backs up to one of sites 13-15, so would be good if you were camping with another couple, otherwise it’s really close to the public water. However, in mid-May we have not seen another soul. Most are heavily shaded, however there are a few on the loop that are good for solar. Sites are fairly level side to side, but slope a good 2” or more front to back. Did not use the pit toilets.

A convenient place with open sites on Memorial Day weekend, close to Winnebago factory and Lichtsinn RV. We are here to service our RV, really nothing else to recommend this park. Next to a stream with a small dam, no swimming or wading. Cool bridge over stream that only goes to golf course. Walking/biking trail through park and two playgrounds. No privacy between sites, trees in middle provide some shade. Shower house and flush toilets. Good for an overnight but not a long stay. Stream was high, dirt/gravel roads and pads, very wet. No host or monitoring.
