camping in yellowstone
I see there are a number of options but I've heard they fill up quick. I was wondering where people have been as far as campgrounds, recommendations, etc. Just looking for some quick or short review...

We drove in from Cody, the drive is steep for about 6 miles or so, but afterwards good.
We stayed at Fishing Bridge and loved it. Fishing Bridge is not a fancy RV park by any means but I looked at as I was inside the park to see the sights and not expecting the Campground to entertain me. The benefits are less drive time getting to the sights and the parks are less busy before 10:00 am and after 7:00 pm.
The Fishing Bridge campground sites are tight and the facilities are simple but adequate.
We stayed at Fishing Bridge for 7 days and after the fact I wish we would have split it up a bit like 4 days in Fishing Bridge and three days in West Yellowstone for better access to the South Western parts of Yellowstone.
Be aware though:
Have fun and enjoy!

Be aware though:
- Reservations for the summer need to be done by Beginning of Jan at the latest to get a site
- Water pressure is high thus you must have a have a water regulator
- Be prepared for a strange sewer connection
Have fun and enjoy!
