The Fishing Bridge Recreational Vehicle Park is located near the mouth of the Yellowstone River as it leaves Yellowstone Lake. The RV park is named after the Fishing Bridge, a wooden vehicle bridge that used to provide a great platform from which park visitors would fish for native Cutthroat trout. Today, fishing is not allowed from the bridge, although visitors still congregate on the walkways to watch White Pelicans and other waterfowl gliding along the river’s surface, and trout swimming under the crystal clear water.
The Fishing Bridge RV Park provides approximately 340 sites designated for hard sided recreational vehicles only. This is because the RV park is located in bear habitat. Also because of its location, we ask that RV campers be especially diligent in their compliance with park food storage regulations. Sites are double-wide with a limited space for slide outs. Recreational vehicles up to 40 feet in length can be accommodated. All sites are open with back-in access. A pine forest surrounds the RV Park. Additional facilities and services include:
- Full hookups for electricity, water and sewer (50 amp)
- Per NPS regulations, generators may not exceed 60 decibels.
- Coin laundry and pay showers in the nearby Camper Services facility
- Rates for this campground include 2 showers per night.
- An RV dump station is also available near the entrance. The dump station may not be available early and late season due to freezing temperatures.
- Charcoal or propane grills are allowed, but no open flames (including portable fire pits).
