Camping is right next to a lazy river. Even saw a beaver paddling upstream. Very relaxing.

6 nights at Riverside Retreat-Rigby

The land is absolutely beautiful right along the river, tons of space and a fire pit. The owners were absolutely wonderful, and gave us firewood throughout our entire stay! Only a 2 hour drive from the West Yellowstone entrance and not far from other must see attractions and things to do in the area. Highly recommend this property!

1 night at Angell Creek Campground

We booked this site last minute after a long day exploring Yellowstone and were glad we did. It was quiet, peaceful, and had 50A service, which we didn’t need thanks to our solar & LiFePO4 Lithium battery setup, but it’s always a bonus to start the morning with full batteries. She also provides a 50A to 30A adapter for those who might need it. When we arrived, it was dark dark, and we weren’t sure if we could drive through the field with the mule flowers, so we turned sharply into the site. That made the site number signs face the wrong direction, which took a minute to sort out, but not a big deal. There was some road construction nearby that turned the road into a single lane and left a layer of dust on our RV and Jeep, but nothing too bothersome. Just a heads up if you’re particular about that kind of thing. We’d absolutely stay at Marisol’s place again!

Nice spot, really nice fire pit. Flowers everywhere.

Nice, peaceful experience. Very clean and convenient porta potty. Looked like plenty of fish activity on the water if you're looking for a sweet spot.

Weekend Trip to Teton Corners River Preserve

We loved camping at Teton Corners! You're right near town, but you feel like you're in the middle of nowhere. We spent a ton of time in the water finding crawdads and tiny fish and even saw a baby water snake! Thomas and his family brought us a fire pit very promptly and we got to enjoy their farm fresh eggs for breakfast! Such a wonderful time!!

We didn't spend a lot of time there besides sleep, but it was nice and quiet and clean. Only a 35-minute ride to Yellowstone National Park

1 night at Riverside Retreat-Rigby

It was a great time! The written instructions were easy to understand and it was easy to find the location. They led us to the spot which was spacious, private and was next to a beautiful creek. They were very kind and welcoming to me and my girlfriend, who stayed there for a night. If you need a place to stay in the area, I 100% recommend this place!

Teton Corners River Preserve

Teton Corners has been a favorite fishing and stayover spot for generations, and we felt we should step up and adopt it since we didn't want to see it developed, ripped apart or closed off. Know that by staying here, you are helping preserve this small piece of natural beauty in Idaho. It may not be the biggest preserve, but you have to start somewhere. Come stay a night! Learn more about this land: Come to our riverside getaway at Teton Corners. This 3 acre peninsula into the Teton River provides amazing trout fishing right from your tent door (licenses issued just 1 mile down the road). This gorgeous nature area is minutes from town, with easy access to HWY20 and HWY33. Deer, moose, bald eagles and osprey frequent the area year round, as well as beaver, waterfowl and night owls. RV dumps right down the road, as well as a 27 hole golf course, if that's your thing. Or just relax, dip your feet in the Teton River and listen to the water pass by. Note: River levels fluctuate over the season. We've tried to take pictures of all water seasons for reference.
