Wagon Wheel Campground

Tight quarters define the camping experience at Wagon Wheel Campground, where RVs share utilities and park close enough that awnings require careful positioning. Located just off Interstate 94 in Forsyth, this small campground accommodates RVs up to 50 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections.

The compact layout means campers often need to park away from their sites and walk back through the campground, as backing into the narrow spaces proves challenging for many rigs. "You butt up to the RV behind you and share water/electric and sewer with them," notes Amy H.. Despite the cramped conditions, the campground maintains clean bathroom and shower facilities, and mature trees provide shade throughout most sites.

WiFi service reaches all sites, though connection speeds remain slow for streaming. The property includes a game room with coin-operated machines and welcomes pets, with a designated gravel area across the alley for dog walking. Staff accommodates longer stays for workers in the area, and the campground sits within a few blocks of Forsyth's downtown services including grocery stores, laundry facilities, and a movie theater.

Campers heading to other destinations might consider campgrounds around Forsyth for sites with more spacing between RVs.

Many campers appreciated the friendly, accommodating hosts and proximity to Yellowstone, but numerous guests pointed out very cramped, tight spaces between RVs. Most found it suitable for basic overnight stays.

My husband and I stayed here for a few months while he was working the outtage in colstrip, MT and couldn't have asked for a better stay. Very pet friendly with wonderful ammenities. Bobbie was very kind and accommodating! We have a 35 foot fifth wheel and felt we had plenty of room to put out out awning and really spread out. Highly recommend!

Convenient

Stayed here overnight on our way to Big Sky. Very easy to get to right off of I94. Friendly host, easy check in. Full hook ups, Wi-Fi, pull through site which was level so it didn’t take much to set up camp. Bathroom/shower facility was clean. Plenty of shade.

Simple and clean

Though it’s not the most glitzy spot, it is clean and the management it extremely accommodating. You can get your laundry and groceries in town, only 3min drive away. You can even catch a movie at the theatre.

I love my site

I can’t decide how I feel about this campground. I’m VERY happy with my site, but can see how others may not be. It’s a small campground, located in a quiet area of town, but a few blocks distance from center of town. It’s quiet at the campground. It’s small, right quarters, and some sites face the road (side road). It’s well shaded, full hook up, has bathrooms and showers, and owners are super sweet and very accommodating! My site is right in the middle and perfect! I’m not sure I’d stay here again, unless I was sure to get my choice of sites. I’m here for 4 nights and am enjoying my stay. Centrally located to easy access at west entrance

Tight space

This was a tight space to be able to back in and pull out of. Staff was kind. Restroom was okay. Didn't use the showers. It served it's purpose as An easy place to sleep as we go in and out of YNP

Great proximity to Yellowstone

This place has great proximity to Yellowstone but that’s where the positives end. The spaces were very tight to the point where you need to watch out for your awning or slide. You butt up to the RV behind you and share water/electric and sewer with them. The whole place felt over crowded. The pet area is a gravel lot across the alley and down a ways. Still worth staying here because you can watch sunset in the park and be set up and in bed so quickly.

close but so far away

It’s cramped. Very close spaces with no room to do much else. The spaces are staggered enough you’re not side by side, but still very cramped.

Showers and restrooms are not the finest, 2 out of 4 toilets somewhat work and showers needed to be cleaned.

It is costly to stay here. There is internet (slow, so don’t expect to download a movie) and cable, water and electric are standard.

Parking is difficult. you have to park out away from your camper and walk back through the campground. The cramped conditions keep people from backing into the tight spaces; therefore, making you park away from your campsite.

There is a game room, but beware you have to pay for every game.

You are close to Yellowstone NP and that is about the only nice thing about staying here.

In summery, if you need just a place to hookup and sleep and don’t mind being close to other campers this place will work. If you like some privacy and want to actually camp with the family this is not very suitable, no place to set up the hammock, no camp fires, and no extra room for your favorite camp chair!

Just the observation of a family guy with wife and kids who love to camp and love our National Parks...
