Best RV Parks & Resorts near Afton, WY

This campground has it all... on a pretty creek, nice campsites for both tent campers and RVs, very clean bathrooms. No RV hook ups. Less than a mile from the campground, and easily accessible by bicycle, there is a very nice waterfall. Slightly beyond that is a public hot spring that was made into a pool by the CCC in the 1930s. There are changing rooms and a couple of picnic tables, but no concessions. I think that it was $8 to get in. You are outside looking at the mts. while soaking...aahhh.

This is a great campground in Alpine WY. Level sites, full hook ups available, excellent wifi and cell service. There is a nice new bathhouse and laundry room (no laundromat in Alpine, so even if you don't camp here you can come use the laundry). The owner has upgraded the grassy areas, offers nice places to sit and hang out, live music at the restaurant/saloon at the entrance with upgrades bring made to the kitchen in order to offer breakfast and dinner options as well. Located right next to the Snake River with mountain views.

Trailer camping here is very cramped. Leaves little to be desired. Cabins looked nice and campsites are available along the Snake River. Showers and bathrooms were adequate. Since it’s near Jackson Hole it over priced. $115 a night. Ouch! People were nice.

The camp spots are well maintained and its easy to get to. The road in is very winding but is completely paved now.

Seems like it’s more established for trailer camping but we did tent camping and it was great. I would camp here again.

Really nice people. Helped us out in a jam. Clean bathrooms and showers. Full hook ups.

Just outside of Etna WY. Back-ins and Pull throughs. The usual, full hook ups and WiFi. Park is surrounded by mountains. Very very scenic. Office staff very friendly.

Buck’s is a decent, comfortable spot in a great area. The price is good and they honor Good Sam discounts. They’re about an hour+ outside of Jackson, WY and about 1.5 from Grand Teton. There are some great restaurants, hikes and water activities nearby (right along the Snake River). The gas station has great prices, propane refilling and sells fly fishing gear. The full hookups were good and reliable from what we experienced. The place is no frills, quiet and right along the main road with very easy access. WiFi is spotty at best and the sites are a little wonky. Don’t expect a map or really any information when you arrive to check-in (rules, bathrooms, WiFi password, where garbage is located, etc). There’s a cool food truck that is open in the gas station lot every day. Food looks awesome, but we didn’t have opportunity to try. Come to this place for the surrounding area and good price for full hookups. It’s quiet and you’ll be left in peace.

We were traveling from the snow in the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone and wanted to find a place close by with warmer temps.   Found this campground on google search.  Has a total of 14 RV sites, all full hook ups with a picnic table,  some tent sites and about a dozen cabins.  RV sites are gravel and very level.  There is a playground and picnic area.  There is a shower house and a laundry.   The office has ice and some supplies.  There is a package store in the front and the town of Alpine is about 10 miles away.   The campground is very well kept and the owner is very helpful.   Great view of the mountains from any site and in all directions.

Just quick FYI, this is now Swan Valley RV park in Irwin, ID. Phone # 208-483-3581, ask for Doug. Returned my VM after I was given the number when I called the Bucks Gas # listed. Nice guy, secured a site for me arriving August 7. Will update and review park then.

A pleasant camp ground with tall lodge pole pines, and hillsides covered in mules ear flowers. Drinking water for the camp site is pumped to an underground tank up the hill and gravity fed back to the camp sites. Taps available throughout the campground to get fresh water but not for RVs to hook up. The campground is in close proximity to the main canyon road so expect occasional motorbike/atv noise throughout the day. There is also a small spring/marsh bordering between the camp ground and main road. It’s not deep enough for kids to play in, but does help keep the area green. Plenty of areas to drive and hike up Slug Creek road. Although streams show up on a gps, these are seasonal streams at best so don’t expect to go fishing. Even over at Slug Creek there are sections with more water but limited flow so the water is stagnant in the late June time frame. Plenty of firewood opportunities or you can purchase from the campground host. Keep an eye out for dry materials. The evening dew point and thick mulch coverage can result in damp kindling and fallen wood. We found success in splitting our wood early in the day allowing it to dry off a bit before an evening fire. There has been some changes to the campground since the satellite map was last taken. We found most campsites indicate 100 percent shaded on the website but found some sites have almost no shade although trees are in the vicinity they run the wrong direction for good shade. We also found some or the parking areas have been changed a bit. Use caution with large rvs/trailers if your worried about getting a scratch on your vehicle. The loops to turn around at the end of the camp sites appeared challenging for some longer vehicles towing 35’+ trailers staying on the road and out of the trees. Postings indicate to be on the look out for bears. We did not encounter any wildlife other than an occasional bird or squirrel on our adventures.

This is a great place just 2 miles from Afton, WY along the beautiful blue Swift Creek! I was visiting Afton for the annual Lincoln Couny Fair. I opted for some peace and quiet and a babbeling brook vs. the crowds/music/noise of the campground located at the fairgrounds. With some trail running too!

Campground Review: I thought the campground would be busier on such a busy weekend, but there was only one other campsites occupied other than myself. The campground had some damaged roads making some sites non-accessible, but other wise it was maintained and tidy, a bit overgrown, but I don't think it sees heavy use. The vault toilets were tidy and well stocked. Water was available, and I bet it is pristine spring water, however I had packed pleanty and didn't use it. The bonus to this campground: they don't allow ATV's in the campground, which keeps noise and dust down. (Guess that may be a bad point if you're an avid off-roader) Swift Creek flows through the campground and many of the campsites. It offers excellent trout fishing and is spring fed and is the clearest blue color. Up from the campground about 4 miles you can hike into Intermittent Spring. It's very pretty and I recommend visiting! The road up the canyon follows Swift Creek and passes a couple waterfalls and super fishing holes!

Product Review: FIVE STARS! Lily Trotters Compression Socks https://www.lilytrotters.com/ Occasionally, The Dyrt will offer Rangers gear to reiview. I was offered the opportunity to demo the Lily Trotters Compression Socks. I've had a few opportunities to wear these compression socks before posting this review, and I LOVE them! I've worn them hiking and trail running and the definitely decreased leg fatigue. I think I'm going to find a new love of running! Before using any kind of compression, my calves would burn when I ran, so I used it as an excuse not to. This would happen on long hikes as well. I think these socks are my answer to longer and more challenging hikes and a new love for running! Thank you for broadening my love of adventure! I hope to climb the Grand Teton soon and I will be rocking my Lily Trotters!
