    Indian Campground

    Good spot for an overnight

    We spent only one night here while we were on our way home from a two week long camping trip. We were in RV site 6, which was right next to the pool. The site was level, and included water, electric, and sewer hookups. There was a picnic table, but no fires were allowed (I think if you have a portable gas fire pit you can use that) and no fire rings are provided.

    The bathrooms were clean and in working order. We did not use the showers, but they appeared to be clean and in working order as well. We did enjoy a dip in the pool and it was very nice! There is a little general store and you can buy ice and even meat for grilling burgers and whatnot. The playground was also nice for the kids to enjoy. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    I will say that we didn't sleep well due to the noise from the very nearby highway. But we were in a pop-up camper. So if you're in a hard-sided trailer or an actual RV, this may not be as much of an issue to you.

    Ten Sleep Rock Ranch

    Climbers campground open to all

    A climbers campground on the west side of the Big Horn Mountains, this was a very useful find when a reservation didn’t pan out up canyon. There are a lot of pluses and minuses to this campground. On the minus side is the fact that it is right on the road with no buffer, sites are very small, there is no privacy between sites, and you likely won’t have cell service. But on the plus side is that it is$5 a night with$2 showers, the bathhouse is pretty clean, there is an outdoor kitchen with sink, two fridges for camper use(mark your items!), Tensleep Creek drowns out most of the highway noise(especially if you get a site on the creek), there is a really nice large pavilion with lots of picnic tables and lots of beta for climbers, there is free wifi in the pavilion, and you aren’t too far from town to get supplies or go to the brewery or from heading up the mountain to the Big Horns.

    Sheridan/Big Horn Mountains KOA

    Finally, a KOA without all the rock

    This is, finally, a KOA that isn’t covered in gravel and dust! There is real, green grass! The sites are small, and tight, but there is grass. They have mostly RV sites, with some tent sites and small cabins. Electric and water, some with sewer. There is a small store, game room and pool. The shower would be better with a real door, not just curtains. They have a good size dog park, plus an extra area for dogs to run, unfenced.

    Tongue River State Park Campground

    Great waterfront sites available!

    Best to reserve your spot early if you want a waterfront site with power. If you are tent camping there are plenty of walk up sites. Fire pits and picnic tables at the sites and group sites are available. Outhouses are kept very clean and there is access to water throughout the State Park.

    Bighorn National Forest

    Dispersed Free Camping off Route 20

    Driving through Bighorn National Forest we found TONS of free dispersed camping off route 20.

    Sites are primitive… No running water, no electric, no restrooms. Sites consist of previously used dispersed site containing clearing and fire pits. There are camping spots for tents and RVs from large to small. If the first spot doesn’t suit you just keep traveling down route 20 to the next.

    Far apart and lots of privacy.

    We camped along a stream in a 32 foot RV. We were visited by a mother and baby moose.

    If you are seeking privacy, this is your place.

    No facilities, stores or cell service. You must be prepared and self sufficient.

    Buffalo KOA

    Great Cabins

    We arrived around 4pm with a reservation for a cabin. The host was great and a nice quiet place. Cabins are clean and the restroom/shower area is very well maintained. Stocked main office with good amenities. Our space heater in the cabin wasn’t working and was replaced quickly. There is a fire ban so no open fires or cooking. I opted to use my gas stove on the porch and there wasn’t a problem. Good location if your headed into Cody or Yellowstone within the next few days. TV also has a Roku adaptor. Laundry room/ shower open 24 hours.
