Deer and antelope still play near the Casper KOA Campground and RV Park. More than 75 percent of the world's pronghorn antelope live within a 90-mile radius of Wyoming's second-largest city. In many places, the Plains look unchanged from the days when the Oregon, California, Mormon, Bridger, Bozeman and Pony Express trails converged here along the North Platte River. Trail ruts are still visible. Visit the National Historic Trails Interpretive Center or browse pioneer exhibits at the Fort Caspar Museum and Historic Site. The campground is located in the town of Bar Nunn, five miles north of downtown Casper. At an elevation of 5,284 feet, the campground overlooks the City of Casper and commands an excellent view of the city and Casper Mountain to the south. Public tennis and basketball courts and a baseball diamond are located across the street, and golfers can choose from two public courses, one of which was designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr. Or just relax in the big covered pool at the Casper KOA (Memorial Day to Labor Day). The whole family can make itself at home here with mini golf, a playground and a pet walk. Casper KOA is the only onsite owner operated full service campground in the area. We offer free restrooms with hot showers, a 24 hour coin op laundry and a convenience store and gift shop. And we welcome long-term campers all year round. Please join us on your next trip through Wyoming!

The campground is large and open. It's arranged so that there are limited wet/energized spots, with the rest of the ground catering to tents and dry camping. In the center of the property, there is a "community" kitchen. There's also a laundry room with a heated shower for campers to use. The site has hammocks, horseshoes, Cornhole and plenty of space to fish and relax.
Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
ScoutMemory Bridge has a little bit of everything! My family of 5 loved everything it had to offer! We floated the river and docked right at the site, the kids loved the relaxing hammock park(at night there is twinkling lights in the trees), bonfires, community “kitchen” , there was a band during 4th of July! We’ll be going back!

In a word , the animal interactions were great as you walked among them. Dewayne was supper friendly and definitely from the cloth of a rancher we did not get to meet his wife.
TravelerLooking back at the photos I have from that morning, I still believe we couldn't have found a better place to stay to start our journey!
ScoutWe were not able to make our reservation due to a flat tire 30 miles from the destination. Left a message around 5 pm that we would be late. Then provided an update around 8 pm when we found out roadside assistance would not be available until the next morning. Without requesting, I was told my fee for the night would be refunded. Thought that was good customer service. i was not expecting a refund.

When our tire warning light came on, around 5 PM and 30 miles from our intended destination of Casper WI, we pulled off at the Alcove exit as the Sinclare gas station to see what was going on. A rupture of the front driver's inboard sidewall was the cause of our tire warning light. A call to the roadside assistance service our RV rental company told us to use, proved to not be able to send a response vehicle until the next day. Fortunately, Windy Waters at Eagle Creek was just across the street from the service station. Julie was very helpful when we called Windy Waters. She was able to get us a spot for the night while we waited for the roadside assistance the next morning. Sites are nothing fancy but have all the hookups and plenty of space for vehicles much bigger than the 26' RV we were renting. Side note: next morning at 7:30 am received a call that no response vendor had been found. So we pressed up the 30 psi tire to 74 psi at the service station and made the 30 mile 30 min drive to Casper watching the steady drop to 42 psi on the trip. If you need tire work in Casper, A-1 Tire worked great for us, like an Indy 500 pit crew they had our spare on in under 15 minutes. And it turns out Outlaw Mobile RV Repair did have a tech contact us while driving to Casper indicating he was ready to respond to the Alcove location.

Stayed 2 nights. Sites for all sizes of rigs. Parks clean and well maintained. Laundry facilities very clean. Staff friendly and helpful

Plenty of camping, epic fishing, and tons of water! This camp spot is between 2 reservoirs and offers plenty of camping for RVs or tents right on the water with access to restrooms. Amazing fishing and floating opportunities. Make sure to get all of your shopping needs before heading out, because the closest marina for restocking is about 40 minutes away. There is no cell phone reception. But it's all 100% worth it if fishing is your thing... you'll soon learn why it's called The Miracle Mile.
RangerFriendly staff. Clean bathrooms and showers. Indoor swimming pool and put put golf. Sites are level gravel and about half are shaded.

Followed google to the spot where it wanted me to turn off on a dirt path with a locked gate. So i passed and drove 2 hours to riverton and stayed at the casino for free
Guide
One mile of gravel road to the campground. All sites are gravel, mostly level. We had a site right on the point. Beautiful views of the lake and the Seminole mountains. The other side of the campground has a shallow bay with sand, sort of. It is great for kids to swim but bring shade. One day, we had no wind until dinner time. Another day, we had wind all day. Not good for awnings or if you don't secure your tent down. Spotty T-mobile service. But usable. You must make reservations online. The kiosk is for day use payments only.

Nice little campground. Some water spigots around, a couple dumpsters, a vault bathroom. It’s fairly close to I-25, but wasn’t bad from 9:30-6:00.
ScoutAmazing hosts. The animals were so fun to get to know and we loved touring the farm with the hosts. We arrived very late at night and they came out to greet us. I thought we would have electric hook up as part of the site, but that’s not available. I mentioned that to the host and in the morning they had run an electric cord out to our trailer, which we didn’t end up needing. The views are also spectacular of the Casper landscape. I highly recommend this as a unique camping experience!
TravelerWaking up among alpacas, lamas, donkeys and an incredible horse with an amazing sunrise (and probably sunset but we missed that).
Owners made time to show us around the animals in the morning and gave us some much needed coffee.
Highly recommended

Deer Haven is a rustic haven for campers, boasting 11 reservable campsites and a single restroom. It's worth noting that water and utilities aren't accessible at this campground.
The campsites are delightfully primitive, aligning with a check-in time of 3:00 pm and a check-out time of 11:00 am. During the hours of 10:00 pm to 7:00 am, a peaceful atmosphere is maintained for a restful night's sleep.
What makes Deer Haven stand out for me, personally, is its remarkable seclusion. They’re sites that are nestled away from the main road, it's enveloped in a serene setting with ample tree coverage. This campground has earned its place as my favorite in the area, offering a tranquil escape from the everyday hustle and bustle.

The office building has convenient amenities, boasting well-maintained men's and women's bathroom/shower rooms, as well as a set of 4 washers and 4 dryers- all of which made my stay even more comfortable. The camper hook ups were a breeze, with flawless water, electric, and sewage connections.
I especially appreciated the concrete slab next to my camper, perfect for grilling, playing bag toss, or simply relaxing in chairs. The location couldn't have been better- nestled right by the city park, I felt the location was perfect.
Being close to Deer Creek added a touch of nature to the experience. I noticed ongoing improvements, such as the replacement of gravel sites and the addition of new cement slabs, truly showing a commitment to enhancing the RV park. The presence of shade trees was nice, and the adjacent city park, complete with a dog park, was a fantastic bonus.
GuideThe staff is amazing. The store is adorable. The sites are spacious.
The road noise is definitely audible.
There’s a cool restaurant just behind the park called The Hangar. Great atmosphere and good food. This worked for us for one night, and you’ll likely see antelope on your way in.

The showers were both clean and pleasantly warm. The overall decor felt a bit outdated but still satisfactory. While there was some noticeable road noise, it didn't reach unbearable levels. The lodging area is situated on a gravel lot, lacking picturesque views. However, if you're seeking a one-night stopover, it serves its purpose well. Furthermore, considering its affiliation with KOA, the pricing remains budget-friendly.

I liked the little dog park and river access.
I mostly didn’t like everything else… from what I’ve been gathering, they put their long-term stays in worse sites which seems strange? RV sites are extremely small. Whoever was in charge of the website's marketing did a bang-up job, because let me tell you, the reality is a far cry from those picture-perfect images.
This campground, is nothing more than a flat, uninspiring patch of land that will transform into a mud pit at the first sight of rain. Shade? Forget about it. You'd be luckier finding a needle in a haystack than a sliver of shade here. And good luck tracking down any staff – it's like they've perfected the art of hide and seek. The office "closed" sign is practically a permanent fixture. So, if you're in the middle of a long-term stay and something goes awry– you're pretty much on your own.

Situated a serene 25-30 minute drive from Casper, nestled amidst the beauty of a mountain adorned with picturesque switchbacks, this campground offers a unique sense of seclusion not often found in locations closer to town.
Beartrap stands out because it is one of the few campgrounds in the Casper region that is more secluded and has a great mountain feel. As with any popular site, celebratory gatherings are not uncommon. For a more tranquil experience, I recommend considering a midweek visit during the delightful seasons of Spring and Fall, steering clear of the busier summer period.
A notable aspect of this campground is its consistently well-maintained restroom facilities, reflecting a dedication to cleanliness and visitor satisfaction. The diverse array of sites caters perfectly to all kinds of camping preferences, whether it's the convenience of pull trailers and RVs or the more adventurous tent-campers. The expanse of the grounds also offers ample space for families with children and four-legged companions to play.

Neat location with direct access to a park like area along the North Platte River. I took the dogs for a swim on a hot August afternoon.
Staff was very helpful. Park was clean, sites were well maintained.
RangerThis KOA is located in the town of Casper. Sites are plenty long with good full hookups.

Campground is a 5. Experience was a 3 due to rain 75% of the time I was there. No one else there first night. 2nd night was a young man who was trying to get out before dark. He got stopped by herd of cows and returned. Dirt road in is mostly sand, but several sections get muddy and greasy with rain. It has been abnormally wet this year and it looks like most people are skipping this campground due to accessibility. I would not recommend a sedan when wet. Vault toilet was clean and well supplied. Forest road trees were being trimmed back.
LegendWe were using this campground as just a stop on the way to Grand Teton. It was convenient off the highway. Close together, but it's an RV park after all ...it was super clean, owner was super nice and very organized....provided with a list of rules and there are a bunch of signs.
We were able to do laundry here and it has a dog park area with dog poop balls and a ball and tug of war toys. My dog loved this!!!
Platte river was at the back of the campground and you can go down and hang out. Mosquitoes bad at night though down by the river! We had a good experience for a quick stop. $53 for full hookup etc. It's the only thing they had other than non electric, as we booked same day.

Beautiful, quite relaxing place. We were lucky to get a free spot, it was July 4th. All camp places nearby were overcrowded and this place was so nice.
