My wife's highlight of the trip to Yellowstone was staying at this beautiful Camp Chicory! We did one night with tent camping and another night in one of few cute cottages. My wife especially enjoyed the breakfast option and my son the goat feeding. We can't say enough great thing about this place. Waking up to that mountain view and the crisp sunshine in the morning is just amazing. I would be there right now if I can.




Nice location, great host response, and the nicest portable toilet I’ve ever been in. The stars were amazingly bright!
What a beautiful place to camp. We loved meeting all the animals. The water pump was a little finicky- otherwise a great stay. And those stars!!
Camp Chicory had stunning views and everything was exactly as Sheila described. The water tasted incredible! Convenient location to Yellowstone as well as other local amenities. The tail end of our stay had a cold front come through so the wind was strong - make sure you have a sturdy tent and stakes! Will definitely come back :)




Sheila was great - super responsive and the campsite was just the quick stay I needed.
Nice to stay on a meadow with chickens and goats visiting us in camp! Clean and informative porto's. Water from the tap delicious. All around a good stay.




Our stay at Camp chicory in paradise valley was the perfect ending to the summer! The views were amazing! Anna was our host for the weekend and she was wonderful! We were only twenty minutes from an amazing hike named pine creek lake. Twenty minutes from Chico Hot springs which is a nice place to drink coffee in the morning and soak from the day hike before! I can’t say enough about the location of this place! They have the little gnome homes that are perfect for people who don’t want to rent camp! I can’t recommend this place enough!
Very nice and private property with lots of lovely animals. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this site to anyone looking to stay here! And what a great view and sunset!
