PROS:
Yellowstone NP North Entrance was an easy drive, about 40 min away.
Cute general store in town with most things you could need and yummy bbq/bakery very close by.
Debbie was friendly and welcoming and gave clear directions to their property.
CONS:
The slope of the driveway and yard were such that it was impossible for us to get anywhere near level. It was so extreme that our baby couldn’t even walk inside our RV without falling. This would have been a major issue if we had spent any real time there, but was manageable because we were at the NP each day til dark and then went to bed.
The electricity is just running an extension cord to their house and was barely able to power our fridge, let alone anything else.
Power went out at the property for the entire second day/night of our stay. The hosts didn’t call or message us to let us know this had happened, so we came home late at night to no power. Luckily we have a good generator so we were able to use that until bedtime, but it made for a hot and stuffy night not being able to turn on a fan, or open windows due to the smoke/terrible air quality.
They had a hot tub but we couldn’t use it since we’d have no way to shower after (nowhere to dump tanks, and showering 4 people would fill the grey tank instantly so I can’t speak to that.
We had to drive almost 30 miles out of our way to find a place to dump our tanks.
Overall this felt more like “moochdocking” or boondocking. This was our first stay with Hipcamp and not at all what I would expect for $65/night (Plus fees). If I were the host, I would have offered to comp the second night since we were without power, which is essentially what we’re paying for I guess?
We wouldn’t stay here again and would not recommend, especially for anyone with a larger rig.
