I agree a 100 percent about Fishing Bridge Campground, that it was nice to have full hookups and we basically slept, had breakfast and a late dinner at campsite only, so the spacing between the sites for us was not an issue.
We reserved for Fishing Bridge 7 months ahead and a week later no more spots were available.
That reservation window is also the same if you are going to the Grand Tetons and planning at staying at Colter Bay Campground. I snoozed and didn't get a spot there and ended up staying at Headwaters Lodge at Flagg Ranch, which wasn't as nice, because it was dirty and run down(restrooms), and further from the action.
