Buttermilk loop B sites 27 through 46 are the reserved sites however a good 60% of the sites 1-56 are first come first serve. New vault toilets were put in for the 2024 season along with new fire pits and a new utility table at each camp site. New picnic tables a supposed to be coming for the 2025 season. Vault toilets are very clean and camp hosts are the best. They are friendly and very helpful. Even if you see all the reserved sites are full on the recreation.gov web site, there is a 99% chance a first come first serve site will be available. Most of the sites are pull through.

Great campground right on the water. Loop A is all first come, first served sites. There a few docks on the lake to tie up to, but they are not adjusted for water levels.

This is a Beautiful place to camp right on Island Park Reservoir. The fishing was Great, the camp host was NICE and it had the Cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen in a campground.

Nice campground Quiet and well managed.

Loved this place. You got the woods and the lake next to you. It's quiet and fairly close to Yellowstone. This is the kind of RV place we always wished for. Basic features but clean restrooms and water available. The site was large enough and had plenty of shade for summer hot days.
Levi McFadden
Great campground right next to the lake and close enough to yellowstone. The campsites are nicely spaced and have enough room for a 26ft camper and long bed truck to menuver into a back in site. This is truly God's country. It makes me want to move to Idaho.

Excellent little campground. We had the private family loop, which made it easier to social distance. Camp hosts kept the latrines well maintained. Our spot was close to the marina, which also had footpaths around the water. Beautiful little spot.
Amanda Curry
Absolutely beautiful campground. Hosts were so kind and very helpful. Super cute little trail around the lake and very clean bathrooms. Highly recommended. Great for kids. We will definitely be returning anytime we are camping in the area.

Fun For All Ages! We had a family reunion here when our traditional campground was not available. What a wonderful surprise! Jet ski and boat rentals, wonderful restaurant and bar, outdoor seating, bounce houses and water islands, and great service!
