We stayed at the Red Lodge KOA the night before driving the Beartooth to Yellowstone back in Sept. 2007.
If you decide to base in Red Lodge and drive part way into Yellowstone, try to go as far as the Lamar Valley. IMO the wildest portion of the Park. Large herd of Bison in the valley each time we have been there. We have also seen Wolves and Bears on infrequent occasions there. A few miles into the park from the Northeast entrance is Barronette peak. If you have binoculars, stop and look for Mountain Goats up on the cliffs.
Your entrance fee for Yellowstone is good for 7 days and includes entrance to Grand Teton as well. If you have a Golden Age Pass (age 62 or older) Entrance is free (best deal we ever got from Uncle Sam).
