Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North
1 Apartment
A quarter mile from the Roosevelt Arch—the stone gateway through which millions of Yellowstone visitors have passed since 1903—Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North in Gardiner, Montana occupies perhaps the most dramatically positioned RV park in the national park system. Just steps from the North Entrance to Yellowstone National Park, the resort anchors travelers in a small Montana mountain town where the Yellowstone River runs cold and clear, the surrounding mountains rise in every direction, and the wildlife that defines Yellowstone begins making appearances long before you pass through the arch itself. Gardiner is the only Yellowstone entrance open to wheeled vehicles year-round, making this an essential stop for any season.
Premium full hookup RV sites offer 20, 30, and 50-amp electric service alongside WiFi, cable, and picnic tables at each site, creating a comfortable and well-connected base for Yellowstone exploration. Pet-friendly standard sites with full hookups provide additional options, and cabin rentals are available for travelers who prefer a roof. A camp-wide WiFi network, a general store stocked with supplies and local information, and a main deck area for gathering complete the essential amenities. The resort's proximity to Gardiner's restaurants, art galleries, and shops—all within a short walk—eliminates the need to drive for meals or supplies after a long day in the park.
Gardiner sits at 5,314 feet in the Yellowstone River canyon just north of the park boundary, surrounded by the dry, sage-covered slopes of the Absaroka Range that frame one of America's most celebrated mountain landscapes. Elk are visible from camp throughout the year—the Northern Yellowstone herd migrates through Gardiner and the surrounding valleys in massive numbers each fall and spring, and individual animals are present on the slopes and river bottoms in virtually every season. Pronghorn, bighorn sheep, and mule deer are regular sights on the hillsides above town.
Yellowstone National Park's Northern Range, accessible directly through Gardiner, contains the highest concentration of predictably visible large mammals in North America—wolves of the Lamar Valley, grizzly bears and black bears on the hillsides, bison herds on the valley floors, and the full complement of Yellowstone's thermal features along the road to Mammoth Hot Springs. The Lamar Valley, often called "America's Serengeti," is the premier wildlife viewing corridor in the continental United States. The Yellowstone River through the Black Canyon and through the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone provides extraordinary scenery and fishing for native Yellowstone cutthroat trout.
Yellowstone's North Entrance operates 365 days a year, making Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North uniquely positioned as a winter gateway when all other park entrances close to wheeled vehicles. January and February offer the remarkable experience of wolf watching, bison in the snow-covered valleys, and thermal features surrounded by winter silence. Summer season is at full capacity from June through September—book as early as possible. Spring and fall offer excellent wildlife activity as animals migrate through the corridor. Reserve your site at Sun Outdoors Yellowstone North and wake up within walking distance of one of the world's great natural wonders.
