Best Campgrounds near Casper, WY

This is an awesome place to stay if you like to have very panoramic views pretty much all the way around you. Verizon is 1 to 2 bars pretty regular. The river is a long ways down, so I did not mark this as being a fishing place. Don’t get too close to the edge if you are afraid of heights. Pack it in and pack it out. There are no services.

Memory 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!

Stayed at one of their tent sites, so can’t provide a review for their RV sites. Convenient to town and amenities. Staff was courteous and welcoming. Each tent site was partitioned with a split rail fence. You can park your vehicle parallel to your site. All sites have a fire ring, a picnic table, a platform for striking your tent, and an elevated box to store things in to keep the local raccoon population at bay. We didn’t see any, but we had our dogs with us. We did, however, see turkeys and deer. Tent site area has a conveniently close bathroom (was winterized during our stay), but you can drive to the main one located within the shower house if you want (also it is a very short walk). The shower house was well kept, and clean. We were extremely pleased with the tent site we were assigned, with the staff, and the facility in general. Should we come this way again, we will definitely stay here.

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

There are 8 spots. We chose 1. 2/3 have a light on a pole close. 4-8 all super spots. It’s like a private resort once the gates close at 8. There is a playground, horseshoes, volleyball court, shelter with electricity, creek, drinking water spigot, nice outhouse potty. We saw rattlesnakes which was a plus for me. Caretakers are lovely. We rode our motorcycles here no problem. This is the most beautiful park I’ve ever stayed in . Stunning red rock cliffs and creek under a natural bridge. OH fairys too, and lots of bunnies. Oscar the Grouch trash cans. Clean, adorable, breathtaking camp.

Friendly staff. Clean bathrooms and showers. Indoor swimming pool and put put golf. Sites are level gravel and about half are shaded.

Beautiful tree lined park in the center of town. Borders the North Platte River and a main city street. Traffic noise? Yes. But it wasn’t bothersome. Local folks driving through to see what’s going on and who’s visiting? Yes! And why wouldn’t they? Clean restrooms and showers? Yes! Picnic tables…Grills…Green grass…Beautiful trees…Water? Yes! And free for up to 2 nights! Douglas is a great community and there is a ton to see and do nearby.

A full campground with spots, tables, trash, pit toilets, and water spigot all free. Gate is open 8am to 8pm, despite what it says online there are no reservations, just first come first serve. I called to check availability, but we were one of the only cars there a Monday night in June.

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

Well, the traffic was noisy, but the bathroom was clean. There are picnic tables and little grills situated for public use which was nice, and a grocery 3 minutes away. However, there seemed to be lots of local use of the park, which wouldn’t bother me normally, except for the lack of consideration that people may be trying to sleep in their vehicles. As of my stay, camping was prohibited on the grass due to a drought, so tent camping was out. But it was free with a two-night stay maximum, and some trees even provide shade!

Quiet, not many people this late in the season. Just a little off the path. Very peaceful listening to the river current trickling by. Highly recommend. 

Nestled 25-30 minutes north of Casper, this campground boasts a remote and picturesque charm that sets it apart from its counterparts closer to town. If I were to weigh the options between Bear Trap Campground and Deer Haven Campground against this location, the first two would definitely clinch my preference. 

This campground's proximity to the highway may be too close for for some. I can only imagine the potential sleep disruption for tent-dwellers as the night unfolds with the hum of traffic nearby but it’s still nothing compared to what you’d hear in town. 

Considering the altitude, a word of advice: anticipate a slight chill in the air, particularly as the season's edges draw near. A little preparation on the clothing front can prevent any unexpected shivers from overshadowing your camping experience. So, pack accordingly if you don't want chilly surprises!

There's an angler's paradise awaiting in nearby reservoirs– fantastic fishing opportunities. Many great outdoor activities in this area! So, all in all, while this campground might not clinch the gold medal, it's still worth considering and still may be quieter than options in Casper.

The 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.
