Yellowstone NP Campground Review

While we were in Yellowstone, we stayed in one of the few campgrounds with full hook-ups.  At the east entrance, you drive about another hour until you reach the Fishing Bridge Campground.

The sites are VERY close.  Infact, you feel like sardines.  If you don't park j-u-s-t right, you may not be able to open up your slides on the motorhome.  Thankfully, we were placed on the end in section E, so it was fine.

It is affordable at $28/n and there is not  an extra charge if you have pets or children, which is refreshing!

There is a shower house and restrooms, and even laundry available at the entrance building, but we did not use any of them while we were there.  We just used our own in the motorhome, and I waited to laundry later.  Our days were SO full, the last thing I wanted to do was laundry!  HA!

The real and disappointing complaint I have about this place was the mosquitoes!  They were AWFUL.  They were SO bad, that you  literally could not stay outside.  Forget grilling or putting out the lawn chairs.  It was so bad that we would make a mad-dash from the van to the RV in record time, so we wouldn't get bit or attacked by 500+ blood-suckers!
You would think that they could spray the area so it was enjoyable, and would bring in longer stays at the campground?

This was honestly the only complaint we had in regards to the Yellowstone experience, and I am not sure if ALL the campgrounds are suffering with the same dilemma.  :)


Blessings,
