The location, cabins and people are great, but the events and service have been dropping off over time. There used to be live bands for the kids at night, glow stick tractor rides and the haunted house was better. The park is still pricy and the service/events declining has been a disapointment.

Excellent fall stay at Jellystone Park! We had no idea how many Halloween activities there would be for kids which was an awesome added bonus. Clean bathrooms, beautiful camp sites. All the staff were excellent and sweet. We particularly enjoyed getting to know Mary Anne. She had a wealth of info on the park and area.

This campground is very big! With lots of things for the kids to do and for the family to enjoy. 4 adults and 2 kids enjoyed a cabin near the river. The location was perfect but I definitely recommend spending the extra and renting a golf cart to explore the campground and get to places quickly! The cabin was beautiful and we enjoyed having the screened in porch. I do recommend if renting linens to double check what size beds are in the cabin you are renting because the pictures didn’t give an accurate representation and it wasn’t listed anywhere. We can’t wait to go back!

Beautiful destination for summer fun with kids (and adults!). Lots of great activities everyday, pools and water splash. Night events are super cool for kids and adults. If you are looking for peace and quite space, you should find a space far from the common areas, as during summer the place is packed and kids are playing around. The river is stunning and views are so nice. We camped with tents and it was super chili in the night, so pack extra blankets or a good sleeping bag. I would love if they could offer coffee options, but I noticed there is a coffee shop right outside the property, in front of the road. Overall, super great time, amazing area. Really worth it.

We absolutely loved our recent stay at Jellystone Glen Ellis! The campground is beautiful! Our cabin was clean and had everything we needed for our 4 night stay. We especially loved that our kids could be so independent. They are 10, eight, and six, and when they woke up in the morning after a quick breakfast, they would get on their bikes and zoom around to find other kids. They loved going into the Ranger station and planning out what they were going to get for their souvenir. All of the staff at the campground were friendly and fantastic, but Mary Ann at the Ranger station was really special. She went out of her way to be patient with the kids and to give love and treats to our dog. What a lovely person. She seems to really genuinely enjoy her job every day and it was always a pleasure to chat with her at the Ranger Station. In addition to the beautiful scenery, the refreshing pools and river, and countless activities, the wonderful staff like Mary Ann at Jellystone really made it a 5 star experience! We did not want to leave!
