Advance reservations for Yellowstone National campers online Feb. 14
JACKSON HOLE, Wyo. — Visitors will soon be able to make advance reservations for additional campgrounds in Yellowstone National Park on Recreation.gov.
The new system is a direct response to public requests for a reservation system at park campgrounds and prompted a collaborative effort between the National Park Service (NPS) and Recreation.gov.
Reservations will go live on February 14 at 8am MST. Visitors will be able to book campsites up to six months in advance. Campgrounds are expected to fill quickly once sites are made available.
At Indian Creek, Lewis Lake, Pebble Creek, Mammoth and Slough Creek campgrounds, 80% of sites will be reservable six months in advance, while the remaining 20% of sites will be available two weeks in advance. Being able to make reservations two weeks in advance will allow visitors the flexibility to reserve campsites closer to their arrival dates.
The ability to make reservations will enable visitors to plan their trips ahead of time and provide assurance that they will have a campsite upon arrival. It will enrich the visitor experience by reducing traffic congestion at campgrounds, improving safety and eliminating uncertainty and frustration.
Advance reservations are also currently available at Bridge Bay, Madison, Canyon and Grant Village campgrounds and Fishing Bridge RV Park. To reserve campsites at these campgrounds managed by Yellowstone National Park Lodges, visit Yellowstone National Park Lodges.
