Best Cabin Camping near Buffalo, WY

We had a tent site along the creek. There were plenty of tent spaces the weekend in mid July when we were there, but the camper sites were booked. The couple who runs the campground were so nice and accommodating. I was in Buffalo for my son's regional baseball tournament and didn't know how many days I would need to book. They let me keep my tent pitched until I knew we would need the extra day way beyond check out time.

The Bighorn Mountains are spectacular! The camp host provided us with maps and trails. The drive on highway 16 from Buffalo to Ten Sleep is amazing and worth getting off the beaten path and Interstate.

This campground has clean showers that are free and coin laundry.

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.

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.

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.

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!
