Lizard Creek Campground

About

Lizard Creek Campground occupies a scenic position on Fonda Point along Jackson Lake's northern shore in Grand Teton National Park. The 60 campsites are nestled within a lodgepole pine and spruce forest, offering a quieter, more remote experience than other park campgrounds. The location provides direct lake access for trout fishing, kayaking, and canoeing, though no boat ramp exists on-site. Signal Mountain Lodge, located further south, offers boat rentals and ramp access. The campground features three comfort stations with flush toilets and potable water dispersed throughout. Each site includes a picnic table, fire ring, and bear-proof food storage box. No hookups or dump station are available. Maximum vehicle length is 25 feet, and sites accommodate up to 6 occupants. Showers and laundry facilities are available at Colter Bay Village, 8 miles south. Wildlife viewing opportunities abound, with frequent sightings of black bears, grizzly bears, mule deer, red fox, bald eagles, and osprey. Strict food storage regulations are enforced. The campground's northern location makes it one of the last to open and first to close each season due to snow conditions.
