"Pet friendly with a small off leash dog run. Pretty quiet. Even though it was almost full. They also have a BBQ restaurant that smelled amazing. Wish we had time to eat!"
"We had an A/C issue once we reached Wyoming and had to wait for a part. While waiting for it to arrive from Denver, we found a cute little RV park in Cheyenne, WY called AB Camping."
"The only reason I took off a star was because the location is right next to the freeway so you get a lot of noise from it and literally no landscape whatsoever the sites were nice and flat and everything"
"We stayed at Cheyenne RV Resort by RJourney for 6 nights while we worked remotely and needed a stable spot for the week."
$20 - $100 / night
"Pet friendly. Laundry room, showers, market available. A steakhouse right next door. Definitely would stick to chain restaurants if you’re wanting a steak though. Or any food for that matter."
"You can pet bison, which is worth it. The rest of the prices are geared towards kids. Sorta run down for the prices you pay.
Definitely a ONE night stay sort of place.
More KOA than Dude Ranch."
$19 - $24 / night
"They have a porta potty, and outside shower, and an outdoor kitchen area. It’s just right outside of the main town area here in Cheyenne so super convenient!"
"I am a Solo Traveler with a small friendly dog and this was a safe place for us. Owners have a friendly dog which came by to visit and gave my dog some company."
$19 - $33 / night
"Beautiful rolling hills along the water with tons of hiking trails. Boating and fishing is a major attraction but not one we didn’t have a boat."
"Curt Gowdy State Park, Cheyenne Wyoming
Located between Laramie and Cheyenne, about 25 miles to each. We stayed at the Tumbleweed Campground. If you enjoy stargazing, you'll be amazed."
"Prairie Dogs are prolific. Pronghorn deer wander all over the base."
"Downside is the train tracks are close by. Not a problem though, it is a no train horn area. Nice RV spots with water and electric. Sewer dump on property as well."
"Great section of national Forest between Cheyenne and Laramie. Easy access off the interstate. Lots of atv traffic but otherwise quiet and easy to find your own spot away from 'neighbors'"
"About equal distance to Cheyenne and Laramie approximately 25-30 min Beware: there is not a place near by to get beer or alcohol."
"Spent a night here with my dog. Very cool rock formations along the road , very big spots, very peaceful and secluded from neighbors, open and beautiful. Will be staying again on my way through."
"We were driving through the area and needed a quick/easy place to camp for the night. Even in mid-July, we were the only people there. Spots are labeled well, with great fire pits at every sight."
RangerBeautiful rolling hills along the water with tons of hiking trails. Boating and fishing is a major attraction but not one we didn’t have a boat. There are many different camping areas along two reservoirs. They are all pretty similar in terms of views and amenities, as far as we could tell. You can drive up to all of the options. Great stargazing and wildlife (pronghorns!) and not far from Cheyenne. Mostly locals here so if you talk with your neighbors you can get some great insider tips.
GuideThe positive comment, the staff is friendly. Someone helped back our RV into our spot, but they have to because the spots are soooo tiny and wedged between residential motor homes. The place looks more like a junk yard or an RV used sales lot, which it is! The dog park is the size of a postage stamp, but at least they have one. We needed a place to stay and it sufficed, but this is not an RV “park” in any sense of the word.
GuideI gave 4 stars because the campground was really clean and the staff was extremely friendly. The laundromat was nice and wouldn’t worry about the washers and dryers being clean. The only reason I took off a star was because the location is right next to the freeway so you get a lot of noise from it and literally no landscape whatsoever the sites were nice and flat and everything is gravel. There was a dog park and the WiFi was not bad. We have Verizon not sure about other carriers. It was packed full of overnighters. Completely cleared out the following morning. I would stay again if we are ever in the area but wouldn’t stay for any amount of time.
TravelerWe stayed for one quick night. The hosts were gracious. We had to make our reservation same day because of some delays. They were very accommodating and didn’t gouge us! Everything was clean and in working order. Very organized. Full hook ups on almost every site. Decent WIFI, even cable hook ups. Pet friendly with a small off leash dog run. Pretty quiet. Even though it was almost full. They also have a BBQ restaurant that smelled amazing. Wish we had time to eat! FYI- Google tries to take you in the exit. So go in where the BBQ sign is! We will come back!
TravelerWe stayed at Cheyenne RV Resort by RJourney for 6 nights while we worked remotely and needed a stable spot for the week. The park was very straightforward all sites were pull-through, which made setup and departure easy.There was a decent amount of space to walk our dog around the perimeter of the park, and while there's a small off-leash dog run, we appreciated the multiple poop bag stations throughout. We were able to receive a couple of Amazon deliveries without issue, which was a big plus.We didnt really interact much with the staff, so cant speak to that part. The showers were a bit tight but were clean and heated a nice touch. Theres also a gas station just down the road for any quick essentials.Overall, it was a solid and easy stay. Nothing fancy, but also nothing to complain about. We'd stay again if we pass through Cheyenne.
GuideWe travelled to Vedauwoo on a suggestion from friends and were tremendously surprised by the beauty of the area nestled between Cheyenne and Laramie.
We camped on the dispersed area just to the east of the campground in a pleasant spot in the trees and boulders a good distance from the dust of the road. One of the great things about dispersed camping in this area is it affords some distance between campers and gives you a sense of your own space.
August weather in Wyoming is plenty warm during the day and cool in the night and it met our expectations. The fabled Wyoming breeze was actually less than expected. The only drawback was the fire ban in effect due to the wildfires in both Wyoming and nearby Colorado.
We would encourage visitors to explore the various trails as each one we set out on rewarded us with magnificent views and the surprise of a swift creek feeding a number of picture perfect beaver ponds.
This is a great camping area and is close enough to Laramie for any needs. Vedauwoo is well worth a visit. Thank Wyoming!
LegendCurt Gowdy State Park, Cheyenne Wyoming
Located between Laramie and Cheyenne, about 25 miles to each. We stayed at the Tumbleweed Campground. If you enjoy stargazing, you'll be amazed. There are no campground lights to interfere and campers keep lights to a minimum. We had a cloudless clear sky to enjoy the heavens. One of the most awesome night skys I've seen. Would love to be here for meteor showers!
This area has electric and water. The sites are gravel and mostly level. Each site is totally separate with great views of the reservoir. There's a nice picnic table and firepit. Vault toilets. Really nice tiled showers (takes quarters) and flush toilets are available 24/7 at the Visitor Center up the road. Boondock and tent campgrounds also available. Staff super friendly. Camp store has the basics. Nice mountain bike and hiking trails. Popular intermediate hike to waterfall, 4 miles rounddtrip. Fishing, picnicking, kids play areas.
TravelerIt’s an open area, ie no shade and it’s simple boondocking (which we like). Peaceful, open area, minimal sites with good views and also had some horse petting time.
GuideI highly recommend looking at the website. Lots to do here. Pet friendly. Laundry room, showers, market available. A steakhouse right next door. Definitely would stick to chain restaurants if you’re wanting a steak though. Or any food for that matter. It’s definitely gorgeous here.
