Gros Ventre Campground

Bathrooms were great for a campground, location is pretty good, situated between Jackson and the Tetons. A good spot if you're coming or going from the parks. Easy to book ahead of time but if you're coming in for a last-minute camp site as we were, there's no way to book offline. I get it but would be useful to be able to pay for a late night camp site.

Beautiful campground, great location, awesome staff. Conveniently located. About a half hour in one direction to the entrance of Grand Teton, about a half hour in the other direction to Jackson. Staff has been great. Campground has nice cottonwoods all over. Plus very close to the creek where we saw a couple of moose while we were there. One down side: the dump station and water fill up get VERY crowded. We had to wait 40 minutes one day just to fill our water tank. The morning we left, there were 9 rigs lined up, waiting. Go early or wait until everyone else is done.

Love this campground. Have been here 3 times and enjoyed every stay. Yes, it’s a bit pricey for what you get. But I would chalk that up to being so close to Jackson. Cell service is decent. Bathrooms have running water and are kept clean. Firewood is available at the camp store. Each site has a big bear box. Beautiful river nearby that you can walk to and hear when you go to sleep. Despite visiting during the busy season, this campground is not rowdy and most people are respectful of the quiet hours.

We had a wonderful stay at this campsite, which is beautifully nestled in the heart of nature. The pitches are spacious, offering plenty of room and privacy. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming, with incredibly friendly and helpful staff who made us feel right at home. If you're looking for peace, nature, and a bit of seclusion, this is the perfect place to relax and unwind. The surrounding area is absolutely stunning and ideal for outdoor lovers. We highly recommend this campsite – it's definitely worth the trip, even all the way from Switzerland! We’re already looking forward to coming back.

The lady at check-in was friendly and efficient - a delight! The campground itself is 4.5 miles east of the main road, so it is quiet. The bathrooms have flush toilets and cold water at the sink. Not fancy, but clean and functional. The sites are asphalt, not particularly level. We are in a self-contained Class B RV, so we have the amenities we need. Surprisingly good Verizon signal here.

We camped here for two nights and really enjoyed it. It was quite and the bathrooms were clean. There was no shower which is the only reason I have it a 4. This is a great location for good hikes and Jackson. The hosts were fabulous. We'll stay again, this was our second visit.

The hosts are friendly, patient and helpful and really help make this beautiful site a great destination. Nearby river within walking distance, 15 minutes to downtown Jackson and 10 minutes to entrance gate of Grand Tetons. Moose passing through our last morning was just an added bonus.

We really enjoyed our time at the campground and would have stayed longer if the cost was reasonable. Basic sites without hookup were well over $60 / night in early spring. The facilities are dated and limited to flush toilets and a dump station. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the campground is handy to a lot of park attractions but they are overcharging in comparison to other NP campgrounds for what is a fairly basic campground next to a river.

Gros Ventre Campground is a great choice if you are staying in Grand Tetons and want to check on the town of Jackson. There's also a wildlife overlook 4 minutes away. The roads in the campground are newer and wider, not inclined. The view is nice because there's no trees, but that means 3/4 of the view is your neighbors a couple feet away. We were late to check in. They had a list and map ready for everyone. The sites were big enough. The bathrooms had a site for dishwater. You can't wash dishes there. It's super low. The bathroom was warm in 40 degree weather though. No showers or anything else. It all worked though.

We stayed in Gros Ventre campground 07/25-07/29 in loop "C" campsite 152 with our 28' TT. No hookups, but A, B & C loops allow generators from 8am-10pm. Campfires are allowed and the registration office sells ice and firewood. There is potable water near the front dump stations. The bathrooms were always clean and had flushing toilets and faucet sinks. Site 152 was paved for an RV, although the site itself is dirt. The site was clean and spacious with nice shade trees. Gros Ventre Campground is located conveniently inside Grand Teton NP and it's about 20 minutes to Jackson and 20 minutes to Jenny Lake. There is an Albertsons grocery store in Jackson to stock up on supplies. If you're coming into Grand Teton NP from Idaho and in an RV, avoid the WYO22 Teton Pass at all costs. It has a 10 percent grade down for 4 miles. It will test your patience and roast your brakes. I was shocked RV Trip Wizard even had routed us that way.

We were off to a great start when we rolled in and a bunch of staff greeted us outside to check us in! We liked the level, gravel campsites which also had a decent amount of space from our neighbors. Supposedly, Loop A is the place to be for moose sightings since it's close to the river. Unfortunately, there weren't any to be seen during our two night stay. One of their dump sites is broken, so that leaves only one working. They're on a septic tank so they are VERY strict with how many campers can use it per day (43 to be exact). Sign up to dump when you check in for a spot! Located about 30 minutes from Jackson Hole and 20 to Mormon Row. Otherwise, we liked Signal Mountain better during our Grant Tetons leg of the trip.

Was lucky to be able to make reservations here this summer for three nights due to someone's cancellation just a week in advance. The campground is located on Gros Ventre Road, and is situated in the Cottonwood trees. Each loop seems similar, but I stayed in the tents only side, which also has no generators. The no generators areas here really make a huge difference in your camping experience. Since the whole summer is basically booked with the exception of one or two random nights here and there, or cancellations, your site may not be the most optimal that you would have picked, if more were available. Our walk to the bathroom was pretty long, especially in the middle of the night. But, it was still totally worth going regardless! People are generally pretty respectful of others here. Some seem to slam the bear box, or are not as respectful of quiet hours. When many people are having fires and there isn't a breeze, the smoke seems to just stagnate among the campsites. My eyes were super red. Enjoyed the close proximity to town, Grand Teton National Park, and Yellowstone. Would definitely return and would love to bring my bike the next time.

No shade. Our least favorite campground in Tetons area. It was 90degrees and our camper van was hot because there was no shade at this camp ground, and since its in the sagebrush its hot and dry. (All others in our 10day adventure we're in a forest). Has Access to the river which is cold and refreshing but not swimmable because current moves quickly and mostly shallow. The staff is a less pleasant than everywhere else we have been in Montana and Wyoming!!! They have the grey water dump stations locked and you can only dump if you are on the reservation list which is really inconvenient. They do not offer a hose for freshwater Potable water so you have to have your own!!! They are only set up for driver side dump/refill. Our van has dual sided grey water for sink and shower. Wouldn't stay there again.

Upon arrival, I had called at least five times confirming that I booked my reservation correctly; being that I have a camper trailer I was asking how I can get a site that will fit my camper and vehicle. I arrived and it was apparent that the staff were not happy with the situation at hand- The office staff had told me to book my reservation and I did. After 15 minutes explaining the situation, I needed to dump my tank and informed the staff; they were even more agitated and IT WAS VERY CLEAR. I was also rushed off the water pump to fill up my water. Only was able to fill 1/3 of my tank. Only 1 shower for three nights for 2 people. RIDICULOUS. TOURIST TRAP AND UNFORTUNATELY WYOMING DOESN'T OFFER FREE CAMPSITES. So had to spend more than $200 to stay at this crappy campsite with attitude ridden people.

Great campground near the moose. We saw three moose and a baby. Great hookups and campfires. Go eat at Dornan's. They have a great grocery, gift, and wine store plus restaurant.

We stayed here for three nights in September 2020 and overall had a great experience. There are tons of RVs and vans, but the tent loop it is pretty quiet and away from most of them. You have beautiful views during sunset on the north side facing the mountains and sunrise from the river which is accessible from the south side. We stayed in Loop G, site 337 and were near a bathroom and potable water as well as a dumping area for dishwashing liquids. Each tent site has a bear box, picnic table, fire pit and a place to park your vehicle. The check in process was simple and efficient. You line up and once you reach the front, a staff member will ask you how many nights you're staying. You'll pay upfront ($33 per night) and then they'll hand you a map with your assigned site location and some information about watching out for bears. We arrived on a Monday morning around 9am and had to wait about 30-45min in line. I believe some of the other campgrounds in the Tetons fill much earlier and have a more complicated check-in process. After two nights here, we decided to extend our stay one more night and were told we could avoid the line and just walk over to the office and request an extension. If we had wanted to move sites, then we would have needed to get in line again. Checkout is at 11am. As a bonus, we saw moose all mornings we were here around 7am! They walk through the actual campgrounds which is incredible. I'm giving them a 4 star review only because the price seems fairly high for no showers (though campground prices in the Teton area are all fairly high). Also, just note that service is spotty in the tent area, but good enough for basic texting.

We've been here twice and love this place. It's off the tourist track, the spaces are very large, and wildlife comes right into the campground. If you want cable tv and water hookups, you won't get them, but we enjoy the peacefulness of this campground. We will be back.

Our group stayed in a tent site at Gros Ventre for 2 nights in August 2016. We had originally planned on trying for a campground further north but fires closed a few campgrounds making the remaining ones very crowded. We were happy to secure a site at Gros Ventre by early afternoon, although I'm sure there were still plenty of sites available late into the day. If you can, try to get one of the sites on the north side that look out onto the mountains. We were given a more interior site with no real view to speak of. Sites can be quite close together with little privacy, but ours was toward the back so we had no one behind us. We were a couple min walk to the bathroom and water spigot. Lots of RVs and other longer term vehicles at this campground but it was relatively quite. However, the staff checking us in were super helpful. They chose a site they thought would be big enough for our two tents and told us we could come back if we didn't like it and they'd figure out something better for us. Later in the day, we asked if there was anywhere to charge cellphones and the staff offered for us to sit out behind the office at a picnic table to use the plug there. Perfect spot to play a couple card games and charge our devices. The campground is on the south side of Grand Teton, its about a 30 min drive to Jenny Lake, but its also nice because its closer to Jackson than the other campgrounds so we went into town for dinner one night. Overall, a decent campground with friendly, helpful staff. Oh! and we saw moose right off the road near the creek driving in!

Super nice campground by Gros Ventre River just below the Grand Tetons. The staff here is truly amazing, very accommodating. Thank you Dennis and Cynthia for all your help, we really appreciate you! Site #227

Beautiful place to explore the area, friendly stuff and amazing views. We stayed here 10 days with our rv in may. Weather was perfect. We had a site with electric hook up. This campground has no showers, just toilets and sinks. No hot water. Dump station at the entrance- free for campers. This campground is nothing for people who wants it perfect. It is very rustic and natural. Office is open from 8 to 5. They don't take reservations- first come first serve. We loved it!

Great campground when the rest of the Tetons is booked. In between Jackson and Jenni Lake, so you WILL do a bit of driving. The first-come first-serve sites fill up later in the day. Bathrooms are clean (flush toilets/no showers). Ranger program at night was good. Tons of RVs, but no excessive generator noise. We saw moose and deer right around the corner from the campsite. A bit pricey at $30 a night for no showers.....

So welcoming. The staff in the campground office were top notch. So friendly and accommodating. They took the time to get us the best view we could get and still be a close walk to the restrooms. The gentleman even helped carry our bundle of firewood to our car. They were so nice to me and my son and we really appreciated their hospitality. The campground is clean and beautiful. Close distance to the town of Jackson hole and Teton National Park. My son and I will remember this crisp night roasting marshmallows and making s'mores by the fire.

Beautiful country. Nicely spaced sites. 18min to Jackson Hole. Camped here in early July. After the wind died down it was a perfect night.

A nice convenient campground. With lots of space. Friendly helpful staff. I was grateful that I was able to stay here. It's a little overpriced and it turns out that it's managed by Vail resorts Inc. and not the National Park Service. For some reason this huge campground has no showers available anywhere. And water is not that convenient as it's only located near the bathrooms. Most campsites offer no view of the mountains which is a pretty tough thing to accomplish in GTeton national Park area. I recommend checking out The gravel road nearby referred to as more Mormon row. Which gives you stunning access to both wildlife and the grand Teton range.

This campground is an excellent example of supply and demand at work. Campers have no choice but to stay here regardless of quality of the experience because the area is overused and underserved. I have camped a lot all over the US, Canada, and Central America and this is the worst I've seen. The staff should be embarrassed, and frankly it's hard to understand how government supervisors haven't done their job to ensure a basic quality standard. Yet they still expect their $25/night. Rocks everywhere, nothing flat enough for a tent, truly dirty, a broken fire pit with chunks of concrete from the fire pit thrown around. Looks like it's never been raked. I've seen alleys that were better kept.

Campsites packed in extremely close, if you are looking for a quiet retreat away from people this is not the place for you. Continue on Gros Ventre road into the national forest and there is an abundance of beautiful campsites.

This is a rather late review of Gros Ventée Campground, sorry for that. We were there in July. Having never been there before, I wasn't prepared for the majesty and enormity of the place. More about that later... let' begin with Jacksonhole. Being July, it was hot and crowded. However, the shops and restaurants were all ready for the Covid 19, with all mandates. It was a day trip, more time spent looking at overpriced track shoes and western clothing would be wasted. So, we took the very pretty ride to our campsite in Gros Ventée and found it to be very spacious and far apart from our neighbors. The views of the Grand Tetons were everywhere. We would definitely return.

Wonderful wonderful wonderful! Second time camping here and we will continue to return. We see beautiful moose every time we are here. Close to Mormon row, Jenny lake, and the Dornans. Far away enough from town where you don't feel suffocated by tourists. Can't wait to plan our next visit!

Love this Campground and the Hosts Joe and Rena couldn't be any nicer. Great viewing place for the Teton Mtns and the solar eclipse. You may even see a moose in the campground.

We just stayed 10 days here. Perfect spot for visiting Grand Tetons NP and the surrounding area. No showers. No laundry. Clean bathrooms. Great place to see moose and elk and other small wild life. Gros Ventre River can be heard from the campsite and is a very short walk away. We took a dip a few times. The sites are rocky so if you're tent camping as we did bring an air Mattress or a pad.

For a national park campground it's extremely overpriced. Starts at 28 per night with no hookups! Just absurd considering there is plenty of national forest around which is free for the same amenities.. dump fee is 10 bucks. Only 5 back in Jackson at the shell station. NPS shouldn't charge to dump for Rv anyway. Plenty around that don't. I wouldn't stay here.

Comfortable camp ground. We used the ADA site fit our travel trailer and truck just fine. Had electric for $27.00 a night, great price compared to Yellowstone. Enjoyed it very much. A little problem with thier dump site ( sign confusion on which one was out of order) other wise a great experience. Clean bathrooms lots of room between campers. Camped two other sites at Yellowstone , Gros Ventre was the best of the three. Only wish they had showers.

Primitive Campground in a very big campground nice and quiet at night very close to the Tetons & Jackson Hole while the close campgrounds were full this one wasn't and passed a large heard of Buffalo along the way

Located amongst fields of Sage and Cottonwoods this campsite is pretty and was easy to get an electric hookup spot mid-week. Some spots have been updated, while others are pretty ragged (loop d). Bathrooms were clean but no hand soap dispensers. Dump station and easy access to water. Perfect spot if you are spending most of your time in the park. Definitely not worth the $48 per night given other campsites of similar set up are charging $26 per night. Bring lots of bug spray.
