Select A Location

Choose a Way to Stay
Every camp-resort offers luxury cabins, deluxe RV sites, other family glamping accommodations (like yurts, safari tents, or even treehouses), and traditional tent sites.
Check their Pet Policy
Pets are part of the family. Many locations offer pet-friendly lodging where you can bring your fur-friends with you. Make sure you check your specific camp-resort to view their pet policy. Don't forget to check out our Jellystone Park packing list to you started.
Plan Your Meals
Many Jellystone Park locations offer meals on-site, but some guests also like to bring their own food to cook outdoors or in their cabins/RVs. Make the choice that's right for your family!
Don’t Settle for the Same Old S’mores
Graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallows are delicious, but you can make more with your s'mores by adding peanut butter cups, white chocolate, coconut, cream cheese, jam, and caramel.
Take Full Advantage of Your Reservation
Cabin and RV check-in times may vary by location. Many locations allow you to start enjoying the attractions and activities even before accessing your cabin/site. Early arrival fees may apply.
Find New Ways to Have Fun
Every location offers multiple attractions, activities, and character interactions. Try an exciting Water Slide, experience your first foam party, or do tie dye for the first time at Jellystone Park!
