Yellowstone Lake State Park has nothing on that other Yellowstone. It is, however, pleasantly scenic and well appointed with recreational activities. High quality fishing, as well as enjoyable swimming, hiking, and wildlife-viewing are available only steps from the campground. The campground itself is well-spaced and shaded.

smaller campground which is nice. Sites are separated very nicely, we stayed at a walk in site and loved it.

Going at the height of mosquito season (everywhere else, that is) provides delightful respite as the bats keep... More
