Campgrounds
Grand Teton National Park contains five main campsites. While one, Jenny Lake, is for tents only, the other campsites allow cars and RVs. The campsites are full-featured with bathrooms and water. All campgrounds are first-come, first-serve.
Backwoods Camping
More rugged camping in the Tetons requires a backcountry permit. These permits can be acquired at ranger stations throughout the park. Camping is only allowed in designated areas, 1/3 of which can be reserved in advance. Backcountry camping can help you get more in touch with nature by carrying you away from the busier roadside areas.
Colter Bay Village
Colter Bay Village is one of the three primary lodge areas within Grand Teton National Park. For those interested in a more upscale place to stay, the lodges have a number of accommodation options and restaurants. Colter Bay Village also has cabins for rent. Stay in a log cabin with your family, drop by the General Store, and you'll likely have a relaxing time along the Jackson Lake coast.
