Keep in mind that Yellowstone is HUGE. It is a lot easier to see if you stay inside the Park. Otherwise the drives are very, very long. The best place to stay is Fishing Bridge which is centrally located and take a quarter of the park per day X 4 days. Then you get to see more and drive less. Fishing Bridge is the only campground with hookups so you'll need to get reservations yesterday. If you don't need hookups there are several nice campgrounds. Fishing bridge is basically a parking lot but it serves the purpose because you get up early and are off to sightsee all day and get back late so you won't be there much.
Another area I recommend is Northern New Mexico from Santa Fe and Chama to Southern Colorado in the Durango, Ouray, Silverton area. Beautiful country but you may not want to go that far East.
Anyway, just get out there and drive. There is so much beauty on your planned route. Don't think you can go wrong. Have a great time!
