For those contemplating a stay with larger recreational vehicles, it's important to note that within Canyon Campground, sites accommodating a combined length of 40 feet or more are limited. Yellowstone's regulations regarding oversize units apply, with the majority of campsites tailored to standard-sized vehicles. Additionally, in this bear-prone environment, campers are advised to secure all odorous items, such as food, cooking gear, toiletries, and garbage, to prevent attracting bears. Bear-proof storage boxes are conveniently available at numerous campsites. The campground boasts essential amenities, including drinking water, flush toilets, and a convenient dump station. Moreover, Canyon Village, just a half-mile away, provides further facilities, including laundry services, showers, stores, restaurants, and additional lodging options, ensuring a comfortable and well-equipped camping experience.
