We SCORED the best spot!! Would only stay again if we could secure the same spot. The views in the back were amazing. The owner ok’d our ball obsessed dog to be off-leash in the back grassy area- he LOVED it!! Great town. 100% on our radar in the future.

The park backs up to public land so there are Lots of places to let the pups run and play while enjoying a beautiful view. It was a short drive to the Tetons and Jackson so we made a couple day trips to see those sites. We will definitely be back next time we are through that part of Wyoming.

Wapiti Village is a comfortable space. All sites backup facing the river and mountain range. We are here in July and the evenings and nights are GREAT, as the weather drops and being from hot humid south Texas this is a slice of heaven. Sites are spacious, which there were concrete pads but putting down a outdoor carpet would help. The sites are full hookup sites and are convenient unlike some other RV parks. Bret and his wife are very nice people and Bret is out and about the park every day keeping it nice. I'm not going to count off for the road construction but that was/is the worst part of our stay. The state is repaving the road in front of the RV park and is taking their sweet time. All lanes have had the previous asphalt removed so both lanes are a dust generation machine with big trucks and cars all day long. Question: Would we return to this RV Park? Without a doubt!!!

We were there from June 9 thru the 14th. The park facility is super clean and organized. We arrived just after the office closed. I sent an email that we were now at the park.

On the, 13th, we rented the Ranger 4-seater ATV. Great price! They offer a discount to folks who are staying at the RV park. We were guided to the US Forest Service trail head. We waved bye-bye to Brent and had the most glorious time exploring all the mountain trails we could in the 4 hour time-span. In June, there are meadows and meadows of yellow flowers. We stopped to take a million pictures. In hindsight, we should've rented for the entire DAY! It would've been so worth it! Be prepared to get dusty, you'll need bug spray for mosquitoes (in the mountains and in the RV park), take some water or light snack. Be safe and don't go on roads that are closed off. Some closures are due to erosion effecting the mountain trail. You don't want to fall off the mountain!

Lewis Lake Campground is located inside Yellowstone National Park. Site-specific comments relate to Site 51, loop B. *Water* The campground was advertised as having running water available, but apparently this is not turned on until later in the year, due to the possibility of freezing. When it's on, "running water" consists of a few water spigots throughout the campground. Bring your own bucket.... Lewis Lake Campground is located inside Yellowstone National Park. Site-specific comments relate to Site 51, loop B. *Water* The campground was advertised as having running water available, but apparently this is not turned on until later in the year, due to the possibility of freezing. When it's on, "running water" consists of a few water spigots throughout the campground. Bring your own bucket. *A bit crowded* My biggest concern is that some camping spaces are crowded together closer than townhouses in a modern city. Standing at my designated campfire ring, I could have made an underhanded toss of sand onto my neighbor's tent. It's hard to enjoy traditional campfire activities when you know that your neighbor is trying to sleep just a few yards away. (In metric units, perhaps 6 or 7 meters.) If this bothers you, look for "dispersed camping" locations inside or outside the park. Within this campground, sites on the outside of the loops may have more space between them. *Toilets* This location uses US Park Service vault toilets -- basically outhouses. They were as clean as expected, although my expectation isn't all that high. We observed daily cleaning visits by workers at the one nearest our campsite.(Those desiring modern plumbing should look into campgrounds with such amenities, although they usually cost more.) *Wildlife* The campground has a diversity of wildlife. While we didn't see (in the campground) any of the larger animals known to inhabit Yellowstone Park, there were plenty of small animals and birds throughout the area. (We were reliably told that larger animals do occasionally wander through, so all precautions must be taken, especially with regard to bears.) *The actual lake* Lewis Lake is gorgeous, but not visible from all sites. Some walking (or biking or driving) is required. The lake is extremely cold, being fed mostly by snowmelt, and was much too cold for swimming, in my opinion. Near the entrance to the campground, there is a boat ramp. All boats must be inspected for invasive species before being launched at this (or any) Yellowstone lake. *Campground location* This campground is located relatively close to Grant Village, and is well-marked along the highway. _Google maps_ or other navigation programs can get you there, but be sure to set that up when you have cell service, as service is spotty (at best) near the campground. (Speaking of which, once you reach the campground and see that there is no service, put your phone into airplane mode so as to conserve your battery for your camera.) *I would stay at this campground again, but I'd definitely pick a better site for future visits, if possible.*

We walked down to the boat launch at sunset and took some really beautiful pictures.

It's not exactly the most accommodating campground, but if you're looking for a more simple spot that stays relatively quiet, this is perfect for you! Park rangers were insightful, campers kept clean and quite, and the nature was serene. We stayed in the back circle against a large open field that would have been perfect for frisbee or ball. Our campsite was an easy 3 minute walk from the lake, so...

A wonderful little spot, and we lucked out because it was the last spot we could find for the night of 3rd July (god bless America - the land of the free). Two reasons why it's 4 star.

A wonderful little spot, and we lucked out because it was the last spot we could find for the night of 3rd July (god bless America - the land of the free). Two reasons why it's 4 star. It is a LITTLE far from the main attractions of Yellowstone. I mean, that's no real problem. Everyone seems to have a car in Yellowstone after all. In fact, for us it was great as we could get out to the Grand Teton National Park nice and early (and wow, what a beautiful drive that is). And then, when we stayed on the night of the 3rd July (god bless America) it was full, and you can be a little close to the campers around you. Which is also actually no problem, we are quiet people but do enjoy the company and presence of others. But we were right next to a mother with her kids and she was SO LOUD, just shouting their names and telling them what to do every thirty seconds. I think the kids were actually trying to hide from her in the end because she was so annoying lol. The saving grace is that quiet time is at 10pm (strictly enforced) and she did stop being annoying about 9:59pm (which suggests to me she knew how loud she was being). So all in all, a beautiful spot, decent location. I am really just giving it a 4/5 star as I know there are places that squarely deserve the 5/5 in Yellowstone, and using a couple of experiences to justify that 4* rating. You won't be disappointed if you choose this spot really.

Good camp ground not far off the road in Yellowstone. We stay here often. General has availability when others don’t. Lots of mosquitos
