<p>Granite Creek Campgound is a large wooded campground nestled in the valley between high mountain peaks very near to the Gros Ventre Wilderness. The campground is located next to designated Wild and Scenic Granite Creek, offering excellent fishing opportunities right next to the campground. Nearby is the popular Granite Creek Hot Springs which is great fun for all ages for soaking in the water and the view after a hard day of recreating. Multiple trails are available very close to the campground and throughout the Granite Creek corridor for hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking.</p>
The elevation is 7,100 ft. NOTE: The Moose Entrances to Grand Teton National Park is about 46 miles north of campground; the Granite Canyon Entrance is about 43 miles. The campground is composed of three unnamed loops located along Granite Creek. It is nicely shaded by a pleasant mixture of Douglas fir, Engelmann Spruce and other conifers. There is little understory or middlestory providing minimal privacy between camping sites. Some camping sites overlook the creek while others have spectacular vistas of the surrounding mountains. An interpretive program is provided each weekend at the amphitheater. Granite Falls is a short walk north of the campground. About 0.7 miles north of the campground is the Granite Hot Springs Pool. This is a hot springs oasis built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in 1933. The pool's temperature ranges from 93 degrees in the summer to 112 degrees in the winter. The pool is excellent for the whole family for swimming - a fee is charged.

Summer delivers the most reliable conditions. Daytime highs run 60–75°F from June through August, with nights dropping into the 30s and 40s. Afternoon thunderstorms are common. Wildflowers peak in early summer, and aquatic insect hatches make creek fishing strong through midsummer. July and holiday weekends see the heaviest trail traffic. Winter buries the campground under snow, with temperatures falling to single digits. Spring and fall bring mud, variable road conditions, and occasional freezing nights even as aspens turn or wildflowers emerge.
Summer (June–Aug) gives best access and most positive reviews; all amenities open.
Campground will have water turned off, bathrooms locked, and no more trash service after closure date. However, the gate will not be closed on the smaller upper loop, and campground can still be used for no fee when all amenities are turned off.
