Jug Hollow Road - Dispersed Camp

Jug Hollow Road - Dispersed Camp, near Flaming Gorge, Wyoming, is a rugged spot that offers a unique camping experience right by the water. This area is perfect for those who appreciate nature and want to enjoy a campfire under the stars, but be prepared for a more rustic experience with no amenities like drinking water or toilets.

Visitors have raved about the stunning views and the opportunity to camp right on the beach. One camper noted, “There was not another single soul at this campsite while I was here,” highlighting the solitude you can find here. However, keep in mind that the access road can be rough, especially when wet, so a sturdy vehicle is a must.

For those who enjoy adventure, the area is great for hiking and exploring the surrounding landscape. Just be cautious of the wildlife, as the road can be frequented by cows and deer. While some campers mentioned the noise from nearby activities like ATVs and speedboats, many still found the beauty of the location worth it. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat, consider setting up camp further away from the lakeshore.

With its breathtaking scenery and the chance to unwind by the water, Jug Hollow Road is a solid choice for those ready to embrace the wild side of camping. Just remember to pack out what you pack in, as this spot relies on campers to keep it clean.

ATVs Speedboats Dirt bikes generators

We spent this past Friday night at this dispersed campground. While the grounds are beautiful, it was extremely noisy with Harding going on all night by the Lakeshore. It was extremely noisy with all of the power equipment on and near the lake, including ATVs, generators, speed boats. If you were looking for peace and quiet, I would move away from the Lakeshore and Camp on the road going out. The road going out is quite rough and has about mile and a half of pretty bad washboard and is sandy in some spots as well

Remote Camping with Views

Upon initial set up we were thrilled. Great cell service, views, and can’t beat a fire and smores on the beach.

A couple of downsides. Lots of expansive soil. Impassable when wet. Our 2 wheel drive van got stuck in muck. Jeep pulled it out luckily. Open range means lots of cow pies. And remote camping without enforced WAG laws ( “waste alleviation and gelling,”) you will find human “pies” as well. Mix in dogs running around in rain….

Water Front Camping

This is an awesome spot, came in the Saturday before Labor Day so it was pretty busy but I still found a nice spot right on the water. The road coming in has lots of cows and deer so be careful! Take 319 to get to this area, not 341, it’s now fenced off

Camped on the beach surrounded by incredible views

There was not another single soul at this campsite while I was here. At the end of a peninsula into the flaming gorge reservoir, this spot is simply stunning. Huge spots and great views. Came in October and the temperature was much warmer than anticipated. Highly recommend.

Fabulous views! Grimy campground

This campground sits right on the shore of Lake Flaming Gorge. The access road is dirt, with ruts and rocks. Tricky when wet. Scout before deciding to go down it. Camp ground has great cell coverage and stone fire rings but nothing else. Not much shade since, there are no trees. Sadly, bushes and thickets have been used as toilets and are downright gross! Wind off the lake can be furious. Try to find a spot further in, especially if you are tent camping. Generators tear through the silence of the night. Bring ear plugs! Hiking is great right out of the campground. Not sure if I’d come back. Although views and sun set are spectacular, everything else looks is not.
