About
Fox Creek Campground is a large, newly remodeled facility featuring 33 campsites along the scenic Beartooth All-American Highway in the Shoshone National Forest. Situated at approximately 7,000 feet elevation, the campground offers stunning views of Pilot and Index Peaks and serves as an excellent base camp for exploring the Beartooth Mountains and accessing Yellowstone National Park. The campground has undergone recent renovations and now includes electric hookups at select sites, including single electric units and two electric triple sites. The maximum spur length is 32 feet, making it suitable for smaller RVs and trailers. All sites are first-come, first-served with no advance reservations available. Drinking water is provided via hand pump, and vault toilets serve the facility. Due to its high-elevation location along the Beartooth Highway, Fox Creek Campground operates seasonally from June through September, weather permitting. The campground has a 16-day stay limit and requires proper food storage due to bear activity in the area. The location provides wonderful opportunities for wildlife viewing, fishing, and accessing the vast trail networks of the surrounding wilderness areas.
