As usual there is a lot of differing opinion on where is best to stay in Yellowstone. Of the campgrounds that will accommodate an RV of your size, Grant village is the closest to the South entrance. From the
Park Map: Grant Village is less than 22 miles, Bay Bridge about 35 miles, Fishing Bridge over 40 miles, Madison 55 miles and the West Entrance 69 miles.
If you want hookups, Fishing Bridge and West Yellowstone are your choices. Traffic can be slow anywhere in the park, but coming in the entrance gates can be slow as well at peak times.
