Our Nature Nut Says:

Slough Creek Campground is one of the smallest, most beautiful campgrounds in Yellowstone National Park. It is a true gem located off the beaten path in Yellowstone's Eastern Lamar Valley. The campground, surrounded by immense natural beauty and wilderness, is set next to Slough Creek, a premium grizzly and wolf habitat. Slough Creek is a great destination for those seeking solitude within the park and for those who wish to view wildlife out on the frontier.

Slough Creek Campground is one of twelve camps in Yellowstone National Park. Facilities include pit toilets, fire grills, and picnic tables. Potable water is available from a hand pump. This is a relatively small campground with only 22 sites. Some sites are located along the river under the trees and some are set in an open meadow. This campground is open from May to October, weather permitting.

Slough Creek Campground is not suitable for motorhomes exceeding 30 feet. Generators are not permitted and reservations are not accepted. Finding an available site may be difficult so be sure to arrive early during the summer holidays and weekends. Slough Creek Campground is located at the end of a 2.5 mile dirt road, off the park's main road, five miles east of Tower Junction. Come early and enjoy some of the best views that Yellowstone National Park has to offer – and beware of the bears!
