Yellowstone

I think today is the first day to make reservations for next summer. Did you get any indication how fast the reservations are coming in?

Just booked Fishing Bridge this morning for 2016.

I have a 40' toy hauler with 110 gal fresh tank and 5500 gen. We are staying at Madison Campground inside the park this June. This place has a dump station and water when you pull in. Spending 3 full days in the park then another 3 in Jackson Hole Wy on the way home

We are staying at Bridge Bay for 4 nights and we are getting 2 sites and just using one for our truck to park, since our trailer is 40ft

This is where we stayed in 2013. Pull through with full hookups.

Definitely advise staying in the Park. FB most centrally located. You won't be able to make reservations yet but find out the earliest you can make them and follow through. It is an awesome trip!

If you can get a large enough spot inside the park then sure, why not do so? But staying outside the park isn't as bad as many people make it sound.

We stayed at Grizzly RV in West Yellowstone for 6 days and drove in each day. The first day we sat in traffic during the "rush hour" - around 9am. The following days we intentionally started earlier or later (8am or 10am) and traffic wasn't a problem at all.

I have stayed in the park and out of the park and I try to visit every other year. I would say to stay in a the park at Fishing Bridge. You are going to be out all day anyway and there are neat ranger talks near there at night. The campground is not a fancy place but it has hookups and depending on when you go there can be snow and cold and you will be happy you have them.

This is a real simple question to answer. The drive from the RV parks in West Yellowstone as said is about 17 miles one way to the junction with the south loop road. It is another 10 miles to the Norris junction that is the meeting between the north and south loops.

Yes, Fishing Bridge is a tight park and it is not cheap. It is the only FHU in Yellowstone. In our case, it was not worth the fuel and time to stay outside the park. Your Mileage May Vary.

If we had a towed, it might have been worth booking in West Yellowstone. One thing to be sure of is that it is worth the effort and expense.

Stay at Grizzly RV Park in West Yellowstone. We went to Yellowstone NP in mid June, just before schools let out and it was fine. No real traffic tie ups and 7 days should be perfect, depending on your interests. West Yellowstone is pretty centrally located, has all the services you could need and not at resort run prices. Call Mark at Grizzly RV and make your reservations.
