Best RV Parks & Resorts near Big Horn, WY

This campground is very old.  The RV park is a strip of land on the side of the property with full hook ups and very small spaces.   The ground was littered with broken glass.  Had planned to stay here and drove by.   The location to the town of Buffalo is excellent, but there is no space to be outside and your site is right on the road.

We stopped here without a reservation in October and we were able to find a space, I don't think it would be the same in the summer and you probably want a reservation.  They provide AAA, Good Sams and Military discounts.  The staff is very friendly, they have a very clean and nice laundry, market and lots of information about the town of Buffalo and surrounding.   it is less than a mile to town and we walked and also biked to town,   Right across the street is the creek trail that is very peaceful and a quicker way to town.  There is a picnic table and full hook ups.   Fires were not allowed while we were there because of high risk.   There are lots of places to eat that you can walk to and they sell propane at a reasonable price.

We pulled into this small town at 7pm needing a place to stop for the night and they helped us right away. They had a pull through spot with full hook up available for $34 for the night. We have a 38 ft fifth wheel and there is plenty of space. Their cabins look a little run down, but if you need a cheap, quiet, close to the interstate place to stay with your camper, this is a nice stop. Perfect cell service as well.

Facility Hosts are friendly and helpful. This is not really a campground but rather an RV parking area with all hookups available. It is located about 50 yards off of I-90 and traffic noise is pretty significant during the day but infrequent during late night.  There are plenty of spaces in a large graveled lot and wide level spots.  We called ahead 2 months before and made our reservation for our stay. We were able to pick our spot when we arrived. Hook-ups are good with water, electrical and sewer.  They have 3 bathrooms at the facility, each with a shower.  In addition there is a laundry room with a couple of washers and one dryer.  Don't expect to set up a campfire and gather around since there is no fire ring available at any site.  There are few trees for some shade in the late afternoon.  Fortunately, it was a cloudy day and temps were cool while we stayed.  There are no group sites at this facility.

Staff here is wonderful...friendly & helpful. Campground is cleaner than most, showers & bathrooms also were clean. Big Goose Creek runs alongside the campground, and downtown Sheridan is just a few miles away. But it's expensive (almost $60 for water/electric only), the campground is between the freeway and train tracks, & RV spaces are stacked together like sardines. But sometimes a night at a KOA is necessary, and the welcoming staff makes it bearable.

Older park that probably needs some updating, but nicest rv park in area. The other 2 are dirt parking lots. Lots of trees and greenery. The us here is the amazing staff. Couldnt be nicer or more accommodating! I mistakenly booked a site with water and power but NO sewer. This wasn’t going to work for us as we were there for 3 weeks. The staff worked their magic to get us into a full HU site.

We picked the Lazy R for a quick overnight stay on trip to Missoula, MT.  We weren't expecting much, given that we were tent campers staying in an RV park.  However, we were pleasantly surprised we arrived to find a nice grassy campsite for a our tent and clean restrooms and showers.  The following morning, we opted to skip making coffee and oatmeal for breakfast and instead visited the onsite bakery.  Winner, winner, chicken dinner!  Hard to beat rolling out of your tent, walking 100 feet and getting reasonably priced gourmet coffee and fresh baked pastries for breakfast.  I will definitely stay here again.

Only area open was non electric sites. Closed down for season but still has access to sites and vault toilets. -fairly level site,with grill and fire pit. -lots of pine trees.and squirrels to torment the dogs -lake very close Stocked with many kinds of trout. Didn’t fish but many people were fishing. -seemed to be used by hunters while we’re were there. -I walked through the sites that had electric and they seemed pretty large and spaced really nicely. Not to crowded together -lots of hiking area. -no fee since no services

The Medicine Lodge Archaeological Site is maintained by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. I normally avoid campgrounds and prefer dispersed camping or backpacking, but I gladly camp here. Sites are well spaced out with Medicine Lodge Creek running through the campground. A walking/bike path goes end to end in the park following the creek. It does not have electrical hookups or dump stations for RVs. There are no shower facilities, but it does have vault toilets and drinking water. You can also buy firewood onsite as there is really nowhere to gather your own wood inside the park. You can go down the 4WD road at the north end of the park to Black Butte a bit and usually find your own firewood, however. All fires must be within the campsite fire rings.

The Medicine Lodge Archaeological Site is a perfect place to camp to explore the Bighorn Mountains, being relatively close to the Medicine Wheel and Shell Falls. If you enjoy craft beer, Tensleep Brewery -- located in a refurbished barn -- is located approximately 20 - 30 miles south in Tensleep.

Nice green spot in the middle of nowhere!  Be aware: There is NO dumping for RVs!

The staff are very sweet and helpful. The campground is large, super charming and very clean except for the pile of dog crap that was left near our spot. Mostly quiet during the day but there is a mobile home park behind us where dogs were barking off and on half the night. The spots are not too close to each other and there are lots of pretty trees between and throughout. There is currently a fire ban so no fires but that was to be expected. Large clean laundry room with 4 washers and 4 driers. Small shop in the office with some rv necessities, beverages and ice cream novelties. You have to buy the local honey they sell, it's amazing and jarred right across the street...chances are you may have met a bee there that made that delicious honey. I did not use the pool but it was very clean. There are pull throughs and back ins for Rvs with plenty of room to maneuver for the back ins. Spots are small sized gravel and quite level with a grassy area and picnic table for each. Wifi is terrible but you can hook up to get several cable stations included in your fee. They also have a great walking trail to stretch your legs. Super excited to walk out the rv in the morning and get greeted by several beautiful wild turkeys passing through. Just a short drive into Buffalo for great food and shopping. If it weren't for the barking dogs I'd give 5 stars!

Level sites. Nice staff. Good for overnight. Very small pull through sites with gravel only. Tiny dogpark. They advertise big open field were dogs can run off leash but as it is right off interstate I would not advise tbat.

This Forest Service campground might be OK in the heat of summer since it sits at 9100', but it's very windy and cold any other time. The sites are suitable for RVs and tents, and the toilets are clean, but there is the issue of the cows... Ranchers have grazing allotments in the Bighorns, which is fine, but you'd think the campground would have cattleguards to keep them out. When I was there, there were about a dozen wandering through the sites, and rubbing up against the pump and outhouses. I'd forget this campground and go to Porcupine, just down the road on the other side of HWY 14A.

Honestly, this campground is pretty awesome. I love Wyoming and all the great campgrounds and outdoor activities they have, but this campground is definitely one of my favorites. Tie Flume Campground is located in the Bighorn National Forest, with scenery and wildlife all around you. You can't beat that! There are also so many activities to do here. You can hike, fish, hang around your campfire, and they also have a few historical sites located nearby. When I stayed here, I did a lot of hiking and fishing. I did most of my fishing along the South Tongue River which is within walking distance from the campground. The campground itself is pretty clean and well kept. I'm not sure if they offer big sites for RVs, but we stayed in a single family site which came with a camp fire ring and a picnic table. My family and I really enjoyed making a big campfire and making smores! We also cooked some fish one night that I caught in the river. I hiked Lily Lake Trail which is part of the Cloud Peak Wilderness. Really enjoyed this hike, great scenery and awesome views during the hike and at the top. I would definitely recommend hiking at least one of the days of your stay. Great location, great campground, and great atmosphere!

Campground Review: The Sheridan/Big Horn Mountains KOA in Sheridan, Wyoming, is a clean, well-kept establishment. Whether you are an RVer or a tent camper, there is plenty of space for you to enjoy this campground. We stayed on a rainy/snowy weekend in September in our 17-foot RV and found that even though we had neighbors, there was plenty of room to move, and we heard little outside noise at night.

Just off the highway, this campground is conveniently located close to both historic downtown Sheridan and the remote Bighorn Mountains. There are about 60 RV sites, 25 tent sites, and 10 cabins. Each tent site has its own covered picnic shelter, which we thought looked unique. We had to eat inside our RV due to the rain all weekend, and were a bit envious of the tent campers being able to eat outside - one of our favorite camping activities - without getting wet! The campground sits along the Big Goose Creek, where campers can fish (mostly for carp).

There is an outdoor swimming pool and spa, which we missed out on by two days when the weather decided to dip below freezing, but it was a nice size and located next to the main building, along with showers, laundry, and a small store. The host is very nice and knowledgeable about the area’s activities. There is also a small, somewhat dated, playground at the entrance to the campground, and a cute mini-golf course near the office. Unfortunately, due to the weather over our stay, we did not get to test out either one! For those that like to stay online while camping, the Wi-Fi was tested decent for web browsing, but leave the YouTube devices at home.

Product Review: The LedLenser MH10 Headlamp was a perfect choice to bring along for our camping trip to the Sheridan/Big Horn Mountains KOA. Since it rained/snowed for our entire weekend in Wyoming, this 600-lumen headlamp was able to cut the drear and allow us to walk safely around the whole campground at night. Even with a wool winter hat on, this headlamp fit lightly and securely on my head.

The MH10 is only 5.6 oz in weight and yet has the capacity to put out 600 lumens of LED glory, which believe me, thanks to my son aiming it at me, could definitely blind someone! At the high setting, the beam can reach to 150 meters (almost 500 feet!), and spreads nicely to the sides, or can be focused with a twist of the lens. Even the medium setting at 250 lumens will give you up to 100 meters (about a football field) of glow power. There are three flashing settings that can be found by holding down the power button for increasing length of time, from one flash to three, and then removed again in the same manner. Great choice for emergency signalling.

The headlamp comes with two color lenses that can be placed in the installment ring and snapped to the front of the beam. It seems to fit securely, and they snap in and out with ease. Red LED is a great way to keep your night vision intact if you need to read a map or spot an animal making noise around you, and it will allow you to see again in the dark even after turning off the headlamp. It is also great at a campground like the KOA because it will not shine into your neighbors’ tents or RV’s and wake them up! We had to do some research on the green lens, and it turns out that green will not scare wildlife, including fish, and in fact could attract them. We also read claims that a green LED is useful for trailing a wounded animal, as the blood trail may be easier to spot. Regardless of the real reason, we thought it was fun to run around seeing everything in a green tint!

The MH10 is USB rechargeable and comes with everything you need to get using it right out of the box. At the high setting, this headlamp will last up to 10 hours on one charge. We used ours for two nights, about 1-2 hrs a night, and never charged it out of the box. It lasted the entire time and even back at home another hour or two over the next week. At the lowest, 10-lumen setting, this powerhouse can last for 120 hours. That’s five DAYS of constant use!

The head strap is completely adjustable. My husband, my 10-year-old, and I were all able to make use of this product with an easy transition between us. The set comes with a nice carrying sleeve for the cords, battery, instructions, and lenses, which can be attached to your belt or a backpack strap. As with any tool, be sure to read the enclosed warnings - 600 lumens is NOT an LED strength to shine in the face of others!
