Depends on what a person wants to do/see in GTNP, and how much driving (and in what vehicle, e.g., I don't tow; any and all travel is in the "C".) they want to get to wherever.
Signal Mountain is a much more "central" location (on Jackson Lake), but, as has been mentioned, the sites are small and access can be difficult with a larger rig, and the campground usually fills quickly.
Gros Ventre, at the far south end of the park, is closer to Jackson, and it seldom fills due to its size (350 sites) and distance from what many consider the "center" of the park.
Anywhere you find a spot will be lovely; GTNP is a magical place.
