Best Cabin Camping near Cora, WY

It took me about 90 minutes once I hit the unpaved portion of the road. Very rough. Averaged about 5 to 10 mph. I have a 4x4 van. I did see a Subaru coming the other way. Would not want to travel this road if it was wet and muddy.

However, the campground and surrounding area are beautiful. Lots of hiking nearby around the lake and into the Winds. The sites are fairly private and spread out. The clean vault toilets are like little log cabins. There was only a handful of sites occupied while I was there in mid-October.

This remote cabin can be rented for $30 night if not in use by the forest service staff. This is a popular destination for snowmobiling in the winter month and fly fishing in the summer. I visited in July and the wild flowers were incredible in LaBarge Meadows. This is near the Tri-Basin drainage. The trail head for the Lander Cut-Off Trail is right at the cabin. There is an outhouse, picnic table in the yard and a fire ring. There is a stream right along the cabin and there is writer plumbing in the summer months.
There is a doorknob lock that you enter a code into to access the cabin that is provided upon your reservation. Call 307-877-4415 to make your reservation!

Great camp!! Hosts were great, stayed in a cabin by the river. Great base for seeing Tetons/Jackson Hole/ Yellowstone 10 out of 10 recommend

Dubois/Wind River KOA, Dubois , Wyoming

Dubois , Wyoming is another town on the old west trail. I only stayed overnight after Grand Teton NP but would have stayed longer had my schedule allowed to explore more. It is a little touristy but there is history there if you search it out.

The KOA was a smaller one, back behind a gas station which was convenient. There are cool TP’s that you can rent and the cabins site along the Wind River which makes for some nice scenery when you are chilling at the campground. Don’t look to hard though, across the river is a neighborhood. The road in was a little rough and the gravel needed some maintenance, otherwise it was a well maintained parking lot like so many of the KOA’s are now. The playground equipment looked archaic! I did not use any of the facilities so I have no information on them and there was no dog park. I arrived after close, found my paperwork on the lite kiosk and I left out in the morning before the office opened. For the price I expect more but it seems like the area dictates the quality of the KOA.

Crew has worked hard on improvements. Decided to stay for a while. WiFi is good, better than anyplace I’ve ever been. Great restaurant “The Den”! Gas is cheaper than in Pinedale. Propane on site. Convenience store...beer, liquor, deli. The only drawback is the wind gusts (so watch your awning)but that’s Wyoming! Beautiful sunsets, view of mountains!

The website is very modern and the camp looks awesome. Reality… gas station RV park. It does has a grill/bar but expectations vs reality is disappointing. Young staff member didn’t seem to be too enthused to help me check in and wasn’t sure that someone wasn’t still in my spot. I asked for a paper with a map and WiFi password on it… nope! However the sight watching the storm pass by was pretty awesome.

The park is a gravel parking lot. Electric and water hook ups look new. Staff was unfriendly and not helpful if you wish to get answers to any questions. Also didn’t give wi-fi code. Dinner at The Den restaurant was scrumptious and tasty burritos. Good for passing through but not a destination stop.

Great RV park, newly renovated.  Motel on property as well as a full Restaurant/Bar, convenience store, gas station.

I was charged over $50 for a parking spot w/no water - there are no bathrooms here. Way overpriced for an electric site.

The very long gravel road to get here is terrible but 100% worth it! Doable in a 2WD but recommend 4WD. The campsites are semi private and there is lots so dont be worried! The surroundings are beautiful and the lake is a short walk which is nothing less of stunning. Would definitely revisit.

Dirt road to get to, but easily managed. A car could go down (very slowly in some spots). Boondocking camping sites all along the river coming up to this spot. They fill up on the weekend pretty fast during peak season. Sites at the official campsite are close together, but have trees in between. You can see your neighbors if that matters to anyone. But it was very quiet while we were there. We were out of a tent, but saw small RVs there too. I’m not sure if there were power hook ups. The surrounding area is stunning. If you go hiking, go out on the Highline trail, and come back on Lakeside trail, that will be the best for views. Start just 30mins after sunrise for beautiful light for photos. I record sound for a living and I loved this place because of how devoid of human noise it is when you get past the two lakes on the trail. Pure nature sounds, aside from the occasional commercial plane. It was so dead quiet, I had to really crank my gain while recording natural ambiences.

This was one of our best camping trips of the summer! So many activities! You can swim, paddle board, hike, run, flit down the river, and just relax around the beautiful lake!

We pulled our camper down the long dirt road. We just took our time (1 hr on the dirt road). The drive was well worth it! We can’t wait to go back next year and stay longer! This year we spent 2 nights in late August.

This may be the best spot in WY!

If you can arrive in one piece the campground is nice, typical one. The 18 mile road is beyond rough. Dirt road and driveways in the campground with pit toilets. Lake is breathtakingly beautiful. Wildlife was abundant in the area.

We arrived past dark. Poorly lit and could not determine the sites so we opted for dispersed area which was also difficult to navigate. Website was attractive. No management on site. Left payment in drop box. Large campground map at entrance wasn’t drawn according to actual view from the map so it was not helpful. One bathroom on private property inside attached building. Weird but there was hot water. Potable water turned off for season. In daylight, pretty stream & bluff nearby. Quiet campground.
