Buffalo Crossing RV Park West Yellowstone

Can anyone tell me how to get in touch with Buffalo Crossing RV Park in West Yellowstone to make a reservation? I'm not a newbie at this, but their reservation process is frustrating to me. The online part doesn't give a confirmation; They haven't answered my email; and the phone voice mail says it will only be checked WEEKLY?!
They have good online reviews, but I haven't figured out how anyone can make a reservation to stay and give one.

It may be like fishing......ya gotta hold yer mouth right.

    Sounds like the campground is still closed for the winter season.

    Have you tried Grizzly RV Park? Nice place.

    Have you seen this campground ( I Have) it is really just a parking lot. Why do you want to stay there ?

    They are still closed but they supposedly have been taking reservations since Nov. The only way I see to do it is on line but I didn't get a confirmation or rejection. I also need two sites. Without a response to email or phone calls, I don't know whether I have a reservation or not. The main thing I was wondering about was whether anyone else had failed or if they succeeded......HOW?

    Ditto. It's also a bit of a drive from the park - it's really more in Island Park than near West Yellowstone. Have you checked all the other possibilities? A couple that look nice and/or we have stayed there: 2 different KOAs a few miles west of West Yellowstone, Henrys Lake State Park (Island Park, Idaho), and Grizzly (our usual choice). And that's just a few of them.

    As for your original question, sorry I can't help with that, as I have never dealt with this CG. I would guess they are still closed for the season; they may be opening up toward the end of this month.

    Problem solved. Tried again and it worked. Like I said; I musta been holdin' my mouth wrong. Thanks for all the advice folks, but for three of us together, this was our last close choice so late in the game.

    I have to wonder what park you are talking about. Buffalo Crossing RV Park is two blocks from the West Gate of Yellowstone NP.
