  Sacajawea

  Nice remote campground

  CG has 24 sites all FF, no reservations. $7/$3.50. Tables, fire rings, vault toilets, trash bins, bear bins, however water was needing final testing but should be available on spigots scattered around. NO Cell signal on Verizon, att or TMobile. Host onsite. 8300 ft elenation. Most sites are small but a few are ok for TTs and RVs. Road up to big Piney lake was closed for construction project, even to hikers and bikes with threat of $$ fine! 23 mi from Big Piney, first 10 paved, last 10 are good condition graded gravel. Note there are a bunch of free dispersed camping sites from FS boundary to CG turnoff.

  Green River Fear-Reardon Draw Public Access Area

  Green River access and bugs!

  The Green River has access areas developed by the WY Game and Fish with private landowners and in this case the BLM. Short gravel road from hwy. This is primarily a fishing drift boat ramp access and parking, but this site also allows camping for the BLM limit of 16 days. There are about 2-3 camp areas with fire rings and old tables. There is also a nice vault toilet. Cell signal id very good. However, no drinking water or trash dumpsters. Some hwy noise and a potential for locals to roll up in middle of night as this is close to Big Piney. Lots and lots of bugs though.

  Weeping Rock Campground

  Great little campground below Fontenelle dam.

  Different sized sites to accommodate tent camping or RV. River access and great fishing. Sites have picnic tables and fire rings that include a cooking grate. Many sites also have a grill. Campground is pet and ATV friendly. Nice little camping spot, does get busy on the weekends.

  Warren Bridge Recreation Area Designated Dispersed Camping

  Roadside Camp On The Green River

  This nice little Campground is all first come first served. Sits on the banks on the Green River. There is water, pit toilets, fire Rings, lamp post, and water. The only downside to the campground is it is located right along a fairly busy two lane Highway. However after dark the traffic Falls to almost zero.

  The campground is located a dozen miles or so north of Pinedale Wyoming which offers full services. It also provides easy access to the amazing Green River Lakes area. Just across the highway a gravel road parallels the Green River offering about a dozen free riverside campsites. The main road to these is rough but well maintained. However the road to several of the sites are quite narrow and rough and should be scouted if you're pulling a trailer or driving a larger RV.

  There is amazing Wildlife viewing right from the campground. On my last visit I saw mule deer, moose, and Antelope right from my campsite.

  Soda Lake WHMA

  Peak Season Pass Through Camping

  Getting to soda lake was very straight forward and easy out of Pinedale. Very well maintained road. Needed a pit stop for the night and to be in close proximity to Jackson Hole for a full day of activities there before continuing on through Yellowstone. Lake/sites are very exposed to weather condition but well established and marked. I opted to continue into forest service land to get out of the wind with tent camping, ended up not far in past the two established spots off of soda lake in the Northeast corner. Perfect secluded spot that was free thanks to Wyomings excellent outdoor recreation opportunities.

  Boulder Lake

  Peaceful sites between the lake and two trails

  Gravel access road from the Boukder Wyoming area. Limited number of established sites in the formal campgound loop. Other folks camp near the Boulder Creek trailhead.

  Pit toilets, gravel parking, trail map displays. Picnic tables and fire rings. Suited for tents and smaller RVs. Bigger RVs camp near the trailhead parking area.

  The two trails up Boukder Creek and to Blueberry Lake go up into the Bridger Wilderness. Bring bear spray and fishing rods.

  Rim Station

  Favorite Place We’ve Stayed Yet!

  Family owned and operated by a phenomenal manager. This charming, beautiful, and quiet park is the favorite place we’ve yet stayed in over a year on the road. The park is convenient both to the Wind River and Gros Ventre mountains and Jackson Hole even as it’s far enough out of the way to be peaceful and quiet.

  Perhaps the strongest endorsement we can give is that we extended our stay two different times as we wanted to spend as long as we could in this wonderful place.

  The spots themselves are simple but are more than enough for the sort of people this park will attract. Other reviewers on here with negative things to say about a gravel pad should stay out of Wyoming.

  Nearby attractions include, of course, endless options for hiking and fishing and off-roading and general adventuring but even right at the park there is plenty to explore including short walks and a resident heard of horses (not to mention more antelope than you’ve ever seen).

  Special note and thanks for the park’s management who went above and beyond throughout the stay from arranging and incredible birthday adventure for our toddler to dropping packages off at our site. This team truly goes above and beyond and sets a new bar for parks.

  If you want a beautiful experience in nature with a warm, friendly staff and community, this is the place for you! Can’t recommend it strongly enough!!

  Big Sandy Dam and Reservoir

  Good stars and private but...

  We arrived at night and found a spot pretty easily. The next morning, we tried to venture outside and the mosquitos were coming in thick swarms. We ran back to the camper trying to avoid the ridiculous amount of cow patties. The dogs were snatching the dried ones up as we ran further exacerbating the trauma. 😂. Our one dog fell 10 feet into the Reservoir because the edges are not sturdy. We had a hard time getting him out as the walls are straight up. We were afraid he was going to get sucked into the spillway. Needless to say, go further than we did if you want to stay here. Not sure what it is like, but it's bound to be better.
