I have been to Yellowstone many many times and have always stayed in the park. This time we are not. We are at the Red Rock RV park now, arrived today. Hosts are nice, campground is clean. There are many things to see on the way.
We start our trip 1 1/2 hours north of you but this is it. First stop is the Oasis RV resort in Vegas. It is on the south end of town. Very nice and a good place to plug in and cool off. Next is the KOA in Cedar City, Ut. Only a few hours past Vegas but if you get caught it construction or an accident you will be happy you have a spot. Be sure to get a Pizza from the guy in front of the Ace Hardware store. Adobe brick oven on a little trailer and it is the best, hands down.
Then we go to the KOA Brigham / Perry. It is good for a nights rest but not much more. And do NOT walk in the RV with your shoes on. The stickers on the ground are BAD and hurt like heck and get in the carpet.
From there it is 325 miles to the west gate of YS and another 50 to Fishing Bridge CG in the park. On the 20 there are wild animal park and other things to see. Just watch for the signs.
Beware of the construction on the 20 near Ashton. The road is narrow with a BAD drop on the edge. Another RV'er was going way too fast south bound and came in my lane. To avoid a head-on with the J.A. I had to hug the right ride of the road and my trailer went off the shoulder. I was lucky because on this curve it was only about a tapered edge and was able to save my rig. The rest of the construction has a 2' drop and there is no saving it when some JA is unsafe. Call the gal at the Red Rock and she will tell you how to go around it on a nice road.
