Yellowstone 2019
Just tried to make reservations for a family outing in Yellowstone in the summer of 2019. News is not so good.
This is May 1, the first day that reservations open for 2019. It is also the last day, for all practical purposes, since most everything is booked up by 10AM. It was very hard to even get through to the Xterra phone number.
Fishing Bridge campground (the only one with hookups) is filled for all of 2018, and will be closed for the entire 2019 season for upgrades. Long term, this is a good thing, but for folks like us who planned to camp there in 2019, not so great.
Tried for cabins at the Lake Lodge. We barely got what we need, and a few minutes later they were all reserved.
I don't know about some of the other campgrounds, but none in the park has hookups. If you want one of these, get on the phone now. There are campgrounds outside the park, of course, which may be worth investigating. But it can be a long drive into the park.
