Jellystone Park™ Gardiner

Our daily resort fee helps us maintain and improve the amenities and activities available for you to enjoy during your stay, like mini golf, playground, and more. We want each guest to have a fun and memorable experience, and this small fee supports our efforts to improve and expand these offerings continually.

RV campers can bring their pets along for the fun! Pets are prohibited at our tent campsites, playgrounds, restrooms, or other buildings. Select cabins are pet-friendly for a fee, with a 2-pet maximum. Cabin fees: 1 pet – $50, 2 pets – $70. Pet owners must bring crates and are responsible for pet clean-up and noise control. Pets must be on a leash at all times. We reserve the right to remove hostile and disruptive pets from the park. View our Pet Waiver.

We offer Day Camp Passes, subject to availability, that includes access to our New Paltz campground's Water Zone, lazy river, pools, mini golf course, jumping pillows, playgrounds, and more! Please visit our Park Passes page for information and pricing.

We do not permit outside firewood to be brought into our park or the cutting of any of our trees or brush. Firewood is available for purchase at our Ranger Station.
