Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park™ Camp-Resort: Golden Valley — Reviews

Great!

Be careful. We paid one price for red carpet pull through but because we didn’t pay the $25 hold fee, we were moved to a lesser value site further away despite paying higher price for premium site. We weren’t moved to an equal site despite website saying otherwise. Some staff helpful, others rude. Just kids working with no training. Each staff member says something different, no consistency. Also closed pool twice for “weather” despite lack of rain or thunder and lightning. Made cabana people leave the pool despite how much they pay for them and how we would be safer under the cabana than in an RV if there were actually bad weather. Over priced for value.

Our family had the best time! Great place! Can’t wait to go back.

We had an excellent time and my kids are already begging to go back. Amazing campground with great amenities and activities.

Good. Some miscommunication about the bear visit times. Pool closes way too early at 730. Cabin clean. Been nice to have hooks for wet clothes. Overall would love to go back.

First time and it will not be our last! It was the best place for kids. Loved everything about it!

Our family loves this park and all the amenities it has. The staff are awesome as well.

Everything was wonderful, convenient and fun. Only feedback is that they need a mandatory first aid or emergency help at a ranger station.

Honestly we love this place, but it would be great if they would just be a little more flexible with the checkin /checkout process. 4 PM is such a late checkin when you are paying so much for a cabin!

The WiFi was horrible that we had to cut our stay short. I own a business and need connectivity, and this does not mean walking to certain locations to have that access is acceptable.

Perfect place to take your family

Everything was clean and there was a lot for the kids to do. The reason they lost a star is because there are no real stores nearby. The one re restaurant on site (they have a quick service type deal by the pool) is only open from 8-3 and apparently only serves drinks and a “breakfast buffet.” We went for brunch on Sunday not realizing this. We sat down and asked for a menu. The waitress said that all they had was the breakfast buffet on the card that was on the table which did not have prices. I should have asked, but never dreamed it would be almost $20. They basically bring you plates of eggs, bacon, biscuits (that don’t look to be homemade), gravy, toast, and pancakes. You can also get plain coffee and water… milk, OJ, etc. is extra. It was $18 per adult which is utterly ridiculous for that type of food. Due to medical reasons, there’s no way my wife could eat that much/type of food, so she drank water while the rest of us ate. We got one round of food and didn’t ask for more. My son got sick and did not eat a bite off of his plate. We asked if we could have a container to bring his home. We were originally told no, because it was a “buffet,” which I understand. However, we had not asked for seconds, and they could see that he did not eat. It was not like we were trying to bring a bunch of not so great breakfast food back to feed other people. One of the employees came to us a few minutes later and said that she talked to a manager or someone and since we did not ask for more food, they would let me bring my son’s food home. The employees were nice enough, but only one was actually working. The rest were either playing on their phones or on the computer (the “manager”). We had to get up to ask for coffee, then get up to ask for cups to drink the coffee out of after they brought the coffee pot. We had to get our own butter, syrup, creamer, etc. from other tables… not what you would expect after paying $18 for mediocre breakfast. Make sure you plan/bring all meals and snacks if you come here. Also, the wifi is horrible everywhere except near the restaurant.

Awesome splash park and kids activities! Bonus was the Bear characters everywhere

Everything is fantastic!

Lots of stay options and lots to do.

Everything was great! The cabin had all we needed.
