About this campground

Eagle Creek Campground west of Cody Wyoming and 8 miles from the East entrance to Yellowstone National Park offers 20 primitive hard-side RV (ONLY) campsites in a Forest Service managed campground. One and a half miles east of the campground there are two trailheads, with corrals for public use, that lead into the Washakie Wilderness. Campers can enjoy a footbridge that crosses the river, and an abundance of juniper, fir pine, spruce, wild roses, and wild flowers. Note: this Bear Country and special rules are in place for storing food.

What campers say

Small, riverside campground about eight miles from Yellowstone's east entrance. Sites are wooded, well spaced and quiet, with many reviewers noting proximity to the Shoshone River. It's strictly hard-sided camping (no tents or pop-ups) because of bears; sites are first-come, first-served. Facilities are basic: vault/pit toilets and hand-pump water (requires effort), no hookups or guaranteed cell service. The location makes it convenient for early entry into the park, but expect primitive amenities and to arrive early to secure a site. A good choice for travelers with hard-sided rigs seeking a simple, close-in base.
