Planning Yellowstone Trip

I am planning a Yellowstone trip in late August 2017. We've never been and would like advice on whether to try for reservations at Fishing Bridge Campground or one of the private campgrounds outside the park.
Pulling a 30 foot Keystone Laredo with a long bed quad cab RAM 2500.
Thanks in advance for advice.
  • We have stayed in West Yellowstone and Fishing Bridge RV Campground. We much prefer Fishing Bridge. It's great that it has full hookups, but most important is that it is in the park. You should seriously think about spending a couple nights in Teton National Park. You will probably be going right through there. Have a great trip.
  • Call now if you're thinking about Fishing Bridge inside the park. Since you're under 35' there may be some sites left. Staying inside the park is a real time saver. We're going in August also and got a spot at Fishing Bridge, so we'll have hookups.
  • We stayed at Yellowstone Grizzly Bear Rv Park. Great access to the parks west entrance
  • Yellowstone is massively popular. You'll need reservations. Whatever you do, don't show up late afternoon hoping to find one.

    Yellowstone is popular for very good reasons. It is an amazing place, and well worth the visit. Well worth a week or more. August is going to have high demand.
  • Check out http://www.rvparkreviews.com/. We stayed Rustic Wagon RV Campground & Cabins West Yellowstone, Montana. It's pricy, but they all are being the location. Everything else was great except their Wi-Fi sucked.

    Yellowstone is awesome. Saw lots of animals and great scenery. Wasn't very busy either in May 2013.
