Forum Question Posted By: Replies:
Yellowstone National Park Getting away from the crowds July 2nd and 3rd in YNP.
Posted: Wed May 6, 2009 03:38 AM UTC
First I'll offer a bit of my own advice: if you're going to Yosemite in CA, visit Hetch Hetchy or Tuolomne Meadows in leiu of the valley. The main valley is Disneyland compared to the Hetch Hetchy area.

Now on to my own question: my girlfriend and I will be visiting the area from Northern California for 3 days, 2 nights, July 2nd and 3rd (then onto Montana). I can imagine this is a pretty busy time for YNP. What areas in or around Yellowstone should we book a campsite or cabin (that would still have spots available).

We don't mind other folks, but are looking to get away from any traffic jams or other hustle and bustle. Anything with great views or water features nearby would be appreciated. Any insider advice at all would be greatly appreciated!

I think right now, that the only place in the park that isn't already reserved for the 3rd and 4th is Grant Village, although I could be wrong. To see where Grant is, check this interactive map of Yellowstone:

Below is the webpage for reservations in Yellowstone:

Do a search, and don't be particular, just "search all lodging"--be sure to fill out the section with your dates. Then if you find something still available that you can afford, reserve NOW. DON'T WAIT!!!!
