Boaters and anglers heading to Glendo Reservoir will find Bennett Hill Campground positioned along the lake's shoreline with direct water access. This Wyoming state park campground accommodates RVs up to 275 feet across 43 sites, with three offering electrical hookups. The boat ramp provides easy lake access, while a fish cleaning station serves those targeting the reservoir's walleye and trout populations.
Sites spread across open terrain with minimal shade, giving campers unobstructed views of the water and surrounding hills. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring, though fire restrictions may apply seasonally. The campground provides vault toilets, potable water near the facilities, and an unusual amenity—loaner life jackets for water activities. A few covered shelters with grills offer protection from Wyoming's frequent winds.
Access requires navigating what reviewers describe as rough roads, and some visitors report confusion finding the campground initially due to limited signage. Site boundaries can be unclear, with Matthew J. noting "there was no pull through, carve out or any other markings other than a sign." Maintenance standards vary, with some visitors encountering cleanliness issues while others find adequate conditions.
For those exploring the broader region, Waters Point — Glendo State Park sits less than a mile southeast along the same shoreline. Bennett Hill works best for self-sufficient campers prioritizing lake access over polished amenities.
Description
Amenities: Electricity (at select sites), Drinking Water, Day Use Group Shelter, Seasonal Boat Ramp and Courtesy Dock, Vault Toilets (3), Fee Canister, ADA accessible camping pads (3) Bennett Hill is a wide open campground with 44 campsites, and can be most easily accessed from I-25 by turning north on Highway 319 in the town of Glendo, and then turning right onto Lakeshore Drive. Bennett Hill is about a mile down Lakeshore Drive, and will be on the left. The campground is spacious and has plenty of area for you and your family to enjoy the sun and some extraordinary night skies. Most campsites are exposed, with little to no shade, and are situated in a prairie of native grasses. The only exceptions are sites 11 through 20, which are up against a line of cottonwoods. All sites, except for 11 through 20 have large, established, gravel pads for RVs. Sites 11 through 20 are potentially impacted by high water, though trees prevent them from having direct water access. All other sites are a good distance from the water, though many have a decent view of Airport Bay. Sites 3,4, and 6, along with sites 26 through 29 are group sites, which will accommodate up to three camping units. The boat ramp is available seasonally, with the courtesy dock becoming usable in early Spring, and coming out of the water in late July to early August. The day use shelter is reservable from May 1 through September 30.
