The Best Camping in Dubois, WY | Wyoming Campgrounds

Dirt road to get to, but easily managed. A car could go down (very slowly in some spots). Boondocking camping sites all along the river coming up to this spot. They fill up on the weekend pretty fast during peak season. Sites at the official campsite are close together, but have trees in between. You can see your neighbors if that matters to anyone. But it was very quiet while we were there. We were out of a tent, but saw small RVs there too. I’m not sure if there were power hook ups. The surrounding area is stunning. If you go hiking, go out on the Highline trail, and come back on Lakeside trail, that will be the best for views. Start just 30mins after sunrise for beautiful light for photos. I record sound for a living and I loved this place because of how devoid of human noise it is when you get past the two lakes on the trail. Pure nature sounds, aside from the occasional commercial plane. It was so dead quiet, I had to really crank my gain while recording natural ambiences. 

Lovely 

This was one of our best camping trips of the summer!  So many activities!  You can swim, paddle board, hike, run, flit down the river, and just relax around the beautiful lake!  

We pulled our camper down the long dirt road. We just took our time (1 hr on the dirt road).  The drive was well worth it!  We can’t wait to go back next year and stay longer!  This year we spent 2 nights in late August. 

This may be the best spot in WY!  

Beautiful

If you can arrive in one piece the campground is nice,  typical one. The 18 mile road is beyond rough. Dirt road and driveways in the campground with pit toilets. Lake is breathtakingly beautiful.  Wildlife was abundant in the area.

Beyond Extreme Rough Road 

Beautiful scenery!  The mosquitos  were vicious. the road was passable but if someone with a regular clearance vehicle I.e. minivan did not know how to keep their tires up on the ridges they could get hung up.

Mosquitos!  Mosquitos!  Mosquitos!!!

The 18 mile drive is bouncy and a bit rough in places but most people should not have a problem. The views are absolutely amazing, second to none! It’s hard to find a more picturesque place to be. I only rated a four because only one of the pit toilets was open, the one by us was locked up. The one that was open was not well taken care of and smelled bad. Overall though, yes this is a must do!!

Beautiful area but the campground needs work

The very long gravel road to get here is terrible but 100% worth it! Doable in a 2WD but recommend 4WD. The campsites are semi private and there is lots so dont be worried! The surroundings are beautiful and the lake is a short walk which is nothing less of stunning. Would definitely revisit.

did not disappoint 

It took me about 90 minutes once I hit the unpaved portion of the road. Very rough. Averaged about 5 to 10 mph. I have a 4x4 van. I did see a Subaru coming the other way. Would not want to travel this road if it was wet and muddy.

However, the campground and surrounding area are beautiful. Lots of hiking nearby around the lake and into the Winds. The sites are fairly private and spread out. The clean vault toilets are like little log cabins. There was only a handful of sites occupied while I was there in mid-October.
