About this campground

Clearwater Campground west of Cody Wyoming and 21 miles from the East entrance to Yellowstone National Park offers 11 tent sites on the banks of the rushing Shoshone River. This single-loop campground for walk-in tent sites provides the best tent camping on the North Fork. Note: this is Bear Country and special rules are in place for storing food.

What campers say

Clearwater Campground is a small, scenic riverside site with spacious, mostly private pitches set close to the swift Shoshone River. Sites are primitive—no hookups and vault-style restrooms—but facilities and campsites are generally kept clean. Many visitors praise the helpful, knowledgeable campground host and the convenient access to both Cody and Yellowstone’s East Entrance; some noted wildlife such as bison nearby and limited cell service. RVers may find fewer suitable spots than tent campers. A single guest reported intrusive host behavior and a dog bite; that appears to be an isolated complaint amid otherwise positive accounts.
