Frequent Traveler
For Ponderosa Campground: Beware…they take only cash or check - no credit cards. Nice RV park near city but quiet. Pull-thru section for big rigs; back-in section for smaller rigs. Long, level, gravel pull-thru FHU-50 amp site that did not feel crowded. Both camp wifi and personal Verizon hot spot were very slow where we were in the park. Excellent cable. Internal roads are good and most trees are trimmed high (some could use more trimming). Picnic table. Laundry. Check-in people share a lot of information about the area; very helpful. Don’t miss Buffalo Bill Center of the West (excellent) or Old Trail Town. Lots to do in the area, including Cody Trolley Tour, Cody Mural & Museum (LDS Church), Irma Buffalo Bill Hotel & Saloon & Gunfight; Cody Cattle Company Dinner & Show; Cody Rodeo, Cody Firearms Experience (shoot a Gatling gun), and more. Cody is at the East Entrance to Yellowstone via the beautiful Buffalo Bill Cody Scenic Byway (and dam and lake). Absolutely would stay here again if in the area!

For Ponderosa Campground: I did not find the sites and roads as tight as others mentioned.Level gravel sites with free cable TV. A bit pricey.

For Ponderosa Campground: This is an in town RV park on a busy road (but right next to a Dairy Queen which thrilled our granddaughter). Spaces are very tight and close together. Shades on you windows are recommended so your neighbor doesn’t look in on you. We had a pull through for our 40’ plus tow vehicle and we barely fit in the site. They do not do online reservations and they don’t always answer the phone. Made our reservation months in advance but they sent no confirmation, did not state what dates we were there for when we checked in and they overcharged us for two nights and would not refund the excess. Found the front office staff less than helpful.

For Ponderosa Campground: Two nights in a back in site for our 23 foot class B. Spaces are tight. Staff are super helpful. Because no one was answering the phone for the trolly tour, he jumped in his truck and drove me over and waited to confirm I had gotten a reservation. That’s real service! Nice friendly people! Lots of grass and trees. All is clean, bathrooms and showers are on the older side.

For Ponderosa Campground: So—We are giving this park 2 stars and those are only for the front office staff who are friendly and helpful. The park itself was OVERLY crowded, they jam-pack rigs into too small of a site which leaves very little room for your tow or vehicles on the site or even around the site. It was a hodge-podge mess w/rigs & vehicles everywhere. The roads were too small to get big rigs safely into sights and too small to jocky for space to leave when others were leaving. There was damage to our rig trying to get in a site we shouldve never been in. There is a pull thru area for larger rigs but they must have been full because we got a back in on the other-side. There is a tiny dog park by the teepees but basically unimpressive. This park sits on a curved road—good luck getting out when the road is busy. This park could be better if redesigned with few sites. It is mostly for rigs 35’ or less on the back-in side. We wont recommend or ever stay again unfortunately.

For Ponderosa Campground: Had a really good stay... has a variety of sites, larger pull through a are closer together than the back on site... great location, super friendly folks, all the usual amenities... each site is supposed to have sewer, but we couldn’t find ours under all the leaves... didn’t matter much to us since we do not have a gravity drain.... loved the location and the town, thanks for a great stay... it’s about an hour from the East Gate of Yellowstone and 1.5hrs from NE gate...

For Ponderosa Campground: Friendliest check in staff ever. Gave lots of info about the town and we went to the Cody Cattle Club dinner show: most fun we have had since COVID-19 arrived. Park is older and spaces someone tight but no problem for two nights. Laundry was helpful too. Happy to recommend.
