Ken and Debbie DeGraaf purchase the land and built the house in 2004 Learn more about this land: Our home is located in Emigrant, Montana. We are approx. 34 miles from YNP and less than 10 minutes to the nearest Yellowstone River access. As the name implies, our campsite provides a convenient "basecamp" for exploring YNP or experiencing the Yellowstone River through Fly Fishing or water sports such as kayaking, white-water rafting, canoeing and or SUP. Our campsite provides the perfect retreat after hiking and experiencing Yellowstone. After spending the day doing whatever you please in Paradise Valley or the surrounding areas, come back to your campsite and relax in the hot tub and prepare dinner on the BBQ & amp; Star Gaze. In Emigrant, there is a bank and a post office as well as a bakery and a BBQ restaurant and The Old Saloon. Additionally, there is a small gas station, laundromat and a general store. We offer 20Amp electrical-hook up.  We do offer water hook up through a hose. The nearest dump station is 1/2 hour in either direction (Gardiner or Livingston). There are NO on-site outdoor SHOWERS or BATHROOMS, you must be totally self-sufficient in that area. Ken Leaves for work Mon. -Thurs. around 5:00 AM.

Paid 3 days - stayed 1
Decent people… yet super windy location so I would suggest not for tenting. Also - odd there is no toilet facility, not even a port o potty, which is the minimum for most folks. At 50+ I’m not short g like a cat in some field….. Even weirder yet - they offer a hot tub…. Yuk.

We had an amazing time at Debbie's and Ken's place. They were very welcoming hosts. Their garden is beautiful and the Hot Tub is just amazing after a long hike. I highly recommend this hipcamp!

Ken and Debbie were AWESOME hosts. We had great views and easy access to Yellowstone NP. We were there in our 31 ft travel trailer. Ken/Debbie assisted us getting into our spot. They had a couple of different parking location. Were able to fully level with our Anderson blocks with no issues. Such a peaceful place.

Beautiful location, extremely friendly and welcoming hosts. Greeted us and helped be sure we had everything we needed. This spot is perfect for exploring Yellowstone. Deb's directions were super helpful. Used the water and electric, even had a bbq set up and ready for use. They were so kind to offer the hot tub. Soaked in the hot tub with a cold drink and incredible mountain sunset views. Wish we could have stayed longer!!

Debbie and Ken are great hosts. We stayed for one night and rode our e-bikes down to the old saloon. Beautiful views and quiet street.
