Tower Fall Campground

The campground host was so nice and checked in on us. There are many bears in the upper Yellowstone loop going there and nearby when we were out driving and walking. The views up there are gorgeous and it’s nice and quiet and the bathrooms were some of the cleanest I’ve seen in campgrounds.

This campground was too primitive for me, and and I refused to stay there. I forfeited the money, and cut my Yellowstone visit short. The loop road is narrow, steep uphill and graveled. Wide just enough for one car. The site was small, not leveled and inclined. Vault toilets- stinky and dirty. Please, make sure to know what it is and decide if it is acceptable or you.

Great campground and host, lots of bear activity. The sites were good for 1 tent but hard to fit 2 tents.

Soooo quiet, loved it here. Would not recommend anything bigger than a truck- trying to pull a trailer through here would have been stressful

We camped here 3 days in June. The host is a very friendly lady and very helpful. At this campground there is only a pit toilet but it didn't smell bad. If you want you can take a shower at the Roosevelt lodge nearby.||When you want to camp here you really need to be here before 9am because it's first come, first serve. It's a small campground and very quiet. You often can spot a black bear here.||The ranger Programm about the wolves was very interesting and made us wake up very early the next day to go a watch some wolves in the area.

We camped three nights in late July and loved this quiet campground. Lots of wildlife around the area including a great horned owl who hooted each evening and a black bear who wandered the woods nearby. The ranger program about wolves was excellent.||||It was convenient to Canyon area, Lamar Valley, and Mammoth. Be prepared for cool nights and arrive early as the camp filled up each day we were there by 10 - 10:30 am.

This was a great campground. The sites all had tent pads but you could also fit a small trailer in most sites as well. The host was very nice and informative. My wife and I stayed here 2 night and on the first day a black bear and her cub walked right through our camp! Tower-Roosevelt lodge is just down the way and has showers if you need. This campground does have running water but only pit toilets. Get there EARLY!! This is a first come first served campground. Cash or check no credit card. $15/night.

We arrived for a night of camping in our little teardrop trailer at around 9am last week. There were a number of sites to choose from at this time of the year and day which was good because we'd heard how fast it fills. We chose site 9, which was a wonderful site with some views of the river and lots of river noises. It is a shared space (with separate tables and bear boxes for each site) so you may not have a lot of privacy. Bathrooms were a pit toilet, but it didn't smell at all and was kept clean and well stocked.

If I had to use a couple of words, I'd describe this waterfall as beautiful and magnificent. Why there's three and four-star reviews for this waterfall is beyond me! It was fascinating to watch. I could do it all day long! We don't have waterfalls where I'm from so I guess that's why I was so amazed by it. It's not the largest waterfall inside of Yellowstone Park by any means. However, I was still amazed by it! The water looks crystal clear. Watching the waterfall is so peaceful and soothing. Tower Fall is located on Tower Creek in the northeastern part of Yellowstone National Park. The waterfall dumps out water from the Yellowstone River. The waterfall is 132 feet. It was named by Samuel Hauser, a member of the Washburn Party. (Tower Falls) circa 1870. The U.S. Geological Survey renamed it to Tower Fall in 1928. A painting by Thomas Moran persuaded Congress to designate Yellowstone National Park as the world's first national park in 1872. This is according to Wikipedia. Would I recommend this waterfall and national park? YES, without a doubt. I think everyone should visit Yellowstone National Park if they get the opportunity to do so. It's a beautiful experience you and your loved ones will cherish for many years to come.

Located about three miles south of Roosevelt Junction in the northeastern part of the park, Tower Falls is a 132 foot waterfall dumping water from Yellowstone River. There are certainly bigger and better waterfalls out there, but if you like water and waterfalls, this one isn't likely to disappoint you. I didn't me. There's so much to see and do in the park that I wish we had taken more time at places like this just to sit and relax and do less sightseeing; just breathe and take it all in. Nature is God's handiwork for certain.

Let's preface, that these reviews of particular attractions inside of Yellowstone come with a grain of salt. Yellowstone itself is amazing, but there are certain spots that are OK, and if you're short on time you can skip. This particular falls, was just OK. It's pretty far out as it is in the North East corner of the park, and most people either enter on the west, south, or north. There is actually a better looking waterfall a few miles west of this fall.

A beautiful feature in the park, and I enjoyed seeing it. Definitely far less crowded than the attractions in the geyser and thermal areas, and an easy 150 yard walk from the parking area. That said, actually getting to the attraction could pose a driving problem for some. Specifically those who are squeamish about steep, winding roads with drop-offs. A 19-mile drive from Canyon Village junction takes a lot longer than you might think for 19 miles, so plan accordingly.
