We’re celebrating at Jellystone Park™! Can we use confetti eggs?
Sorry to be a party pooper, but we do not allow confetti eggs at any time in the Camp-Resort. But, congratulations! We’re so happy to be celebrating with you!
Do you sell propane at the Ranger Station?
We sure do! Our guests and members of the public can stop by the Ranger Station to get theirs!
Are campfires allowed?
You bet, unless we are under a burn ban, so be sure to ask the Ranger Station at check-in. Campfires must be confined to designated fire rings and be monitored at all times. We do not permit outside firewood being brought into our Camp-Resort or the cutting of any of our trees or brush. Firewood is available for purchase at our Ranger Station.
What is good camping etiquette?
If you’re a first time camper, you may have some questions on the best camping etiquette. Learn how you can be a good neighbor, stay safe during your trip, and more, with our etiquette guide.
Do you have Wi-Fi?
Yes, we have free Wi-Fi throughout the Camp-Resort – speeds will vary. We do ask that you refrain from streaming videos, as it tends to slow down the speed for everyone. Please note our wifi is limited outside of commons areas.
Can I arrive early or depart late?
Early access (before check-in time) does not guarantee site/cabin will be ready or available at time of arrival. Extended access (after check-out time) does not guarantee guest will be able to stay on site/in cabin until departing from the Camp-Resort. Early access/extended access only guarantees access to the Camp-Resort and Camp-Resort amenities, which requires parking in overflow. Access is based on availability and involves a fee based on the time of check-in – please call for info. We absolutely cannot accommodate access prior to 12PM, so please plan your travel accordingly.
How far in advance should I make my reservation?
We recommend booking at least 6 months in advance of desired arrival date, as our Camp-Resort will fill up quickly! We book reservations up to 360 days in advance!
What is your policy on firearms and weapons?
Guests must obey all federal, state, and local laws regarding the ownership and possession of firearms. Firearms are not permitted in any property buildings or common areas. The only exception is that guests may have a firearm in a locked, private vehicle in parking areas if permitted by law. The discharge of firearms, BB guns, air guns/rifles, or similar devices is strictly prohibited.

Are alcoholic beverages allowed?
They are, but the beverage must be held in an unmarked container or koozie. No glass or breakable items permitted in the Camp-Resort for safety reasons. This is a family-friendly Camp-Resort, so please be considerate of others and refrain from loud and unseemly language. Beer & wine is available to purchase in the Ranger Station (ID required).
I am renting a cabin, what should I bring with me?
Great choice! Please bring towels (bath and kitchen), blankets, pillows, linens, grilling and cooking utensils, paper towels, and personal items. Are you wondering what amenities your cabin includes? Please view our Ways to Stay page for the specific cabin you have reserved.

This is my first time visiting, is there anything I should know?
We are so excited to have you stay with us! There are a few optional items you can bring along to maximize the fun during your trip. You are welcome to bring bicycles to help you get around the Camp-Resort. We also suggest bringing fishing poles for some quality family fishing just down the road.
