Absaroka Bay RV Park

Absaroka Bay RV Park operates from May through October with full hookup sites priced between $50-$70 per night. This private campground sits close to downtown Cody, with grocery stores and restaurants within walking distance. The facility features mostly pull-through sites on recently refinished asphalt, accommodating larger RVs with full electric, water, and sewer connections.

Sites include picnic tables and vary in spacing, with some offering more privacy than others. Amy & Stu B. notes "the lots were big and spacious enough" and appreciates that "the owner intentionally spaces you out from your neighbor to give some privacy." Several sites sit near the main road, generating consistent highway noise that continues through the night. Limited shade exists across the property, though some grass and trees provide relief in certain areas.

The campground maintains clean facilities including restrooms, showers, and a laundry room that reviewers consistently praise for cleanliness. WiFi reaches throughout the property, though cellular service varies by carrier. Mike B. describes it as a "very clean friendly spot with full hook ups." A small on-site market sells propane and basic supplies. The facility waters nightly using hard water that can spot vehicles if not cleaned promptly.

Access roads can be rough, and the campground tends to fill during summer months when advance reservations become essential. Staff provides military and Good Sam discounts, and pets are welcome. The location serves as a convenient base for exploring Yellowstone National Park and Cody attractions including the Buffalo Bill Center of the West. For additional camping options in the region, see campgrounds near Cody.

Book summer stays well ahead, as availability becomes limited during peak tourist season.

Campers regularly cited the clean facilities, friendly staff, and convenient Yellowstone location as major strengths. Road noise and closely spaced sites without shade were common concerns, though many found good value.

Friendly!

Friendly staff! Great visit for two weeks in our fifth wheel. Plenty of room for the trailer and truck. The restrooms were very clean and the laundry was in good shape. Cody has so much to do you need at least a week. We went in May and want to go back in the summer to see the rodeo.

Located in a great part of town. Convenient yet quiet. The staff is super friendly and the park is very clean. Shower houses and laundry were clean and in working order. The price was the best in town too which was great with the fuel prices.

Great stay

Location was great to do anything you want to do and Cody, (because Cody is such a small town.)

There is grass and trees (yay shade!) and the lots were big and spacious enough. The owner intentionally spaces you out from your neighbor to give some privacy which is super nice. The lot looks newly refinished in terms of asphalt. Full hookups and picnic tables.

Our site was in the far corner close to the road and field, but traffic wasn’t too loud, and it felt pretty secluded. We could even walk to a grocery store or several fast food/ food truck options. Sites were almost level!

The RV park has laundry and bathrooms both which works just fine. The hot water worked well. Not great Verizon or ATT service, but the WiFi worked well the whole time. You just have to reconnect every time you idle.

While not on the official rodeo bus pick up sheet, we called and asked if they could pick us up and they did without any issue.

Great interactions with staff. Overall, easy and good stay. 5/5 from us!

Newer park, but nothing fancy

This is a newer camp, has no shade, spots are very close together. The bathrooms are very basic, kinda like taking a shower with a garden hose.

Rudeness

Reserved back in January 2022 for July 26 thru July 1 when we found out Yellowstone was closed we called to cancel and get a refund.they have a policy you have to cancel 15 days in advance, i missed it by one day. And lost the entire weeks money i called several times to chat with the owner but never received a call. Finally got a hold of her asking if she would consider out of her heart to give me half of the monies we paid. She said I was harassing her and if I called again she would report me to th epolice. I just thought se would have it in her heart but no.... she got rude yelled at me told me I was band from their rv park and she canceled my reservation when I was going to be there about noon on July 26 because I really didn't want to miss out on the money and time I took off work to see yellowstone. THE REALLY BAD PART IS she canceled the other party that was going also having their own reservation without their permission she was rude inconsixera t e and would listen to anything I ask

Well Kept RV Park and Nice Owner

Stayed here with no reservation in October but based on location, cost and facility would not recommend for summer - would make reservation. The sites are mostly pull through and are full hook up. The laundry room is very clean. It is attached to the bathroom/shower house. The location is very close to the town of Cody and grocery stores and gas stations. We have Verizon and T-Mobile and both had good service. WIFi is also provided. There is a small market and they sell propane.

Be sure to visit town and the Irma Hotel and the Buffalo Bill Center of the West.

Short stay but clean park

Came in 10 minutes before the office closed (9pm) and the host was super friendly and welcoming. A full hook up pull thru was $42 after tax. The park was extremely clean. The bathrooms were open until 1am and the showers were free and very clean. There wasn’t a whole lot to see but park is extremely short walking distance to a burger king.

All pull-thru sites. 50, 30 and 20 amp service with water and sewer. Sites are short. When we checked in they asked us to park behind are bumper pull camper. The site was to short. So the said we could park in the next site over. Camper was parked in D2 and truck in D1. Nice clean rest room and laundry room. Stuff was very helpful.

Just outside Cody ...

... clean, quiet ( although the campground sits between two streets) and very affordable (winter rate $30 for FHU). Most sites are pull-through with a picnic table and green grass. Fantastic WiFi. ooo LTE for t-mobile, and oooo LTE for Verizon.

Nice Overnight

Very clean friendly spot with full hook ups. Not much green space at all but it was great for our overnight spot before heading into Yellowstone. Quite a bit of road noise, even through the night. I would stay again when I come back to the area. One other point of concern is that the campground waters every night, with very hard water that leaves tough to remove spots on you camper and vehicle. Get them off ASAP.

Great location

We stayed here for a few days while visiting Cody, Yellowstone and The Tetons. They give a Good Sam discount and Military Discount. Nice folks who run the place. Clean. Amenities. Close to everything to do in town. Full hookups. Would stay again. Not crowded although full so easy to get around. There aren’t really any trees in the park so don’t expect shade but other than that great place. We did look around at the other campgrounds while we were in town and were not impressed.
