Electricity at National Park Campgrounds
Do any of the campgrounds (not privately owned ones) in Teton, Yellowstone and Glacier, have electric hook-ups? If so, please post their names. Thanks.

- Fishing Bridge is not privately owned, but it is privately operated, by the park concessioner (Xanterra). Not sure whether the arrangement between GTNP and Colter Bay RV Park is similar, but I suspect so.
About 30-40 miles outside Yellowstone, in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest, there are a few CGs (Buffalo, Upper Coffee Pot and I believe one or two others) that have a few electric sites. Most of those are reservable. - Gros Ventre in the Grand Tetons NP has a few sites with electric.

We had full hookups and could walk to one of the lakes. We enjoyed the campground. A bear wandered through one morning.
There's also a Colter Bay campground, so make sure you get the RV park if you do make reservations.
As mentioned above, in Yellowstone, there's Fishing Bridge. We stayed outside of Yellowstone but decided to drive through Fishing Bridge to check it out. The sites were not attractive, but the location is definitely very convenient. - There are none in Grand Teton.
- Fishing Bridge in Yellowstone.
- The Watchman in Zion has sites with 30 or 50 amps.
