This campground is superb. Crescent lake could be one of the most pristine lakes in the Cascade Range. It’s higher elevation, alpine trees, clear water, and a perfect destination for anyone who wants to escape the hustle of life. Our family and friends love this place.

The ability to kayak, paddle board, water ski or just swim and explore the beautiful water is amazing. The camp sites are well equipped, spacious and clean. The bathrooms, potting water stations and dumpsters are plentiful.

As for the weather, it’s a mixed bag, but the rest is ideal.

This is a hidden, small little gem just 20 miles outside the east gate (Cody) of Yellowstone. We got lucky and they had a spot open, backed up against a creek with plenty of space between sites.

The Park Host was a great help also, welcoming us in, giving us ideas and tips for wildlife and possible dangers with Bear. We didn’t see any.

This is a clean, well maintained site. Plenty of bathrooms and wonderful camp sites. I highly recommend staying here and adventuring both inside Yellowstone, but out to Buffalo Bill Park and Cody.
