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!

This is our 6th visit to Jellystone Glen, and it just keeps getting better every time! For our first five trips, we stayed in various cabins — all of which were great — but this year, we decided to take the plunge and bring our own travel trailer. It was our first time hooking up on site, and we were thoroughly impressed. The RV sites are immaculately maintained, as are the grounds throughout the entire property. You can tell a lot of care goes into keeping everything clean, organized, and convenient. We’ve always loved it here, and now with our own trailer, it feels even more like a home away from home. The activities for kids are non-stop — from around 9am until nearly 10pm every day, there’s something fun going on. Whether it’s crafts, games, or character visits, the staff goes above and beyond to keep families entertained. The water park and both pools are always sparkling clean, and it’s clear cleanliness is a top priority here. But as much as the kids love the excitement, my favorite spot has to be the Glen Ellis River — so peaceful, calming, and the perfect place to just unplug and soak in nature. A special shoutout to Maryann, who helped us multiple times this trip and was an absolute pleasure. Friendly, helpful, and kind — she really embodies the spirit of the Jellystone team. Kudos to the entire staff for creating a place where families can make such incredible memories. We’ll definitely keep coming back for more! 🏕️🐻💙

The best place ever all the staff are amazing. Cory came back to do the bubbles on his day off; he said all that matters is that the kids are happy. Love everyone Luna was great Mary from the food court, David from the entertainment center. This is our 3 years going there. The cabins are amazing

My whole family came for a whole week last summer. It was my first time. My daughters had a blast between the pools and all the activities for the kids. Of course their favorite this was the Golf Cart. The tent site was perfect. My parents stayed in a cabin and that was a beautiful cabin. I would recommend Jellystone Glen Ellis to all families, even if you aren’t a fan of camping, they have amenities for all!

We have camped here many times. Each time we have a very enjoyable vacation. Always room for friends and plenty to do. Our younger kiddos always enjoy the pool as well as the river and most recently the waterpark. The grownups find the river most enjoyable with the ability to relax on the beach or floating from one beach to the next. The staff has always been very accommodating. The area has multiple adventures to explore. In the past we have taken the cog railway and also driven up Mt Washington. There’s many trails to hike and natural pools to take a quick dip in.

Jellystone Park at Glen Ellis is an amazing getaway! The location is perfect—nestled in the White Mountains with a beautiful river running through the campground. The sites were clean and spacious, and the amenities were top-notch. Our kids had a blast with all the activities, water slides, and character visits. The staff was friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. It’s a great spot for both adventure and relaxation—we’ll definitely be back!

This is a great campground! Big sites, awesome sports and recreation areas, tons of activities, laser tag and an awesome mini golf course. An enormous water park and new pool are just about ready to open; its massive! The staff were fantastic. Our next door neighbor put a stake through the water line on a Sunday evening and our entire row lost water. The staff worked quickly and we had water within 45-50 minutes. We will 100 percent return and cant wait to try out the water park and new pool. Also, something that is overlooked; paved main roads! It keeps the dust down.

Go see Ray " The Marine" and his sweet wife Karen in the food shack under the pavillion. They make the ABSOLUTE BEST food !!!! Try the meatball sub. It's HUGE and delicious. And the "Sweet Thai Chicken Sandwich" is to die for.

I have been going to glen ellis since 1987 it was owned by two caring families it was the most enjoyable place ever they actually cared about your stay it was the most relaxing place ever, quiet time was after 9 no children buzzing around in golf carts beeping. You actually felt relaxed after a week there now is a completely different experience. It was open and now it’s stack as many as you can and triple the price ! Shame on you for ruining my family’s favorite place in the world.It was such a great family place not for just the elite with bratty kids in golf carts! Don’t bother thanking me for my years your corporation doesn’t care the Goff family actually did! My whole family children grandchildren are mourning the loss of our favorite place in the world. Corporate greed sucks!

Just sad - this was an untouched gem, a simple campground where you could enjoy nature. Now there are $350 / night cabins where the camper sites used to be on the river. Rest of the campground is an amusement park. Won’t be back. RIP Glen Ellis. Welcome corporate greed.
