We are taking our family this summer to Yellowstone from Arizona.  We've never been there before and not sure where to camp.  We will be bringing a pop-up, so we need a location that will accomodate it.  Any suggestions?

We're making the trip ourselves from NY State.  I just called a few days ago and made reservations in the Grant camping area in Yellowstone NP.  Are you aware that all campgrounds in YNP are dry camping except for Fishing Bridge?  Then again, Fishing Bridge is the only one that does not allow tents or pop ups. There are private campgrounds near the entrances, but we weren't interested in those so haven't researched them.  Our first choice campground was Bridge Bay, but they didn't have a site there that could accommodate our camper.  We're happy with Grant, our reservation is for 14 nights.  Grand Teton NP should be an easy day trip from there.  We may cancel a few nights to go up to Glacier NP.  We may start back sooner than we planned to hit a few more hot spots on the way home.
 
 We own a travel trailer, but bought a pop up for the trip.  We'll save gas money towing the pup, then sell it when we get home.
