This is a popular area and the main campgrounds are often full in the high season, though it is always worth it to camp close to the Tetons themselves. The further north you go in the park the better the option. Also consider camping at Granite Creek, near Hoback Junction, or at Shadow Mountain primitive camping area (which has great views of the Tetons and great mountain-biking).
