“Outdoors & Recreation in West Yellowstone, MT”
One of the most popular campgrounds in the park due to its central location and long season, Madison Campgroundâelevation 6,800 feet (2073 m)âsits about 14 miles east from the town of West Yellowstone and 16 miles north of Old Faithful. Nearby, the Gibbon and Firehole rivers join to form the Madison River. In spring and early summer, nearby meadows teem with wildflowers and grazing bison. In September and early October, you can often hear the bugling of bull elk.
Madison campground is a large campground with 292 single-family campsites, about 14 miles east of the West Yellowstone entrance. The campground is located close to the junction of the Gibbon, Madison and Firehole Rivers. Each campsite has a table, fire ring and grill.Season: Early May to late October.Madison Campground Best Campsites: 7, 26, 30, 42, 44, 51, 52, 60, 77, 85, 92, 95, 108, 119, 130, 143, 146, 154, 163, 171, 176, 185, 191, 220, 240, 256, 271, 275, 287.
Very nice campground with great location on Madison River. Although there were no services such as electric and water, the sites were all large and shaded. In addition, being able to cool off and relax every afternoon in the river was awesome!
Wow!! Great campsite on the West Gate side of Yellowstone close to Mammoth hot springs and, paint pots and so many amazing hikes!! The staff was friendly and ver accommodating. The site was a bit awkward but it worked out perfect! Great site! Unfortunately we could only stay one night due to heavy demand. Would definitely return!
Only 4 stars because we were greeted by a very rude registration clerk who soured my enthusiasm for the first few hours in the park, but otherwise the campsite was very nice. I was expecting more crowded conditions, but it wasn't bad. Being next to the river with the wildlife is certainly a huge bonus. Be sure to make reservations way in advance especially if traveling in summer.
The BEST. Wake up to bison and elk roaming by the river. There are toilets, cold water sinks and a dish washing station. No hookups, but a place to dump on your way out. RV sites can be awkward, but it doesn't matter. About 16 miles from Old Faithful (the closest campground) and just breathtaking. Go there!
