Dispersed camping is available near Cora, Wyoming in the surrounding Bridger-Teton National Forest. Most sites offer primitive conditions at elevations between 7,000-8,000 feet, with significant temperature drops at night even in summer months. Warren Bridge Campground provides one of the few developed options for those seeking basic amenities while still enjoying remote Wyoming landscapes.
What to do
Fishing access: 21 miles from Pinedale, Warren Bridge Campground sits along the Green River with prime fishing spots. "Right on the river. Had good cell coverage. Would recommend this place," notes Gary V., highlighting the convenient water access.
Mountain exploration: Under an hour from Jackson Hole, camp at Highline Trail RV Park for day trips to the Tetons. "From their park you can explore the lakes and back country of the Wind River Mountains, spend time in Pinedale, make a day trip to Jackson and Teton National Park, or simply relax and enjoy the peaceful setting they offer," reports Ashley F.
Horseback riding: Access trails directly from campsites at Rim Station RV Park, where surrounding national forest provides extensive riding terrain. "There's a sweet 22ft airstream sport and a cabin you can rent if you don't have your own RV and I can't say enough how nice the owners are!" mentions cheriana G.
What campers like
Privacy between sites: Campers appreciate the spacious layout at Solitude RV Park, which offers separation between camping spots. "Very spacious, very few neighbors and spread out when you do have neighbors," notes one camper, with another mentioning "Beautiful views. No bugs! Quiet neighbors. Very spacious site."
Level sites for easy setup: Many RV parks near Cora feature gravel pads specifically engineered for minimal leveling. "Sites are very level!" reports Melody M. about Highline Trail RV Park, adding "We are along the back fence so less road noise, but also the spaces have no trees in the back and are basically dirt."
Strong cell service for remote work: Contrary to expectations for rural Wyoming, several campgrounds maintain reliable connectivity. "We work remote and the wifi was surprisingly strong and good for working remote" at Solitude RV Park. Another reviewer noted "Verizon At&t and Tmobile all had reception" at Warren Bridge Campground.
What you should know
Seasonal weather extremes: Summer temperatures can drop significantly at night, with frost possible even in August. Winter access becomes extremely limited, with most campgrounds closing completely between October and May.
Limited amenities in smaller campgrounds: Not all facilities offer full services. At Elkhorn RV Park, one camper reported: "Didn't realize it was electric only. No full hookup. No trash dumpster available. Water was where you had to haul to camper."
Road conditions vary significantly: Access to more remote sites requires careful planning. "Only 'negative' point is the unpaved road up the mountain" notes a camper about Ring Lake RV and Tent Site, indicating high-clearance vehicles may be necessary for some locations.
Tips for camping with families
Wildlife viewing opportunities: Kids enjoy spotting local wildlife from safe distances at various campgrounds. At The Longhorn Ranch Lodge & RV Resort, "Our 3 year old daughter loved chasing around the prairie dogs around the park as well!" reports Brandon G.
Recreational facilities: Some campgrounds offer specific amenities for children. "Plus there's a basketball court, pickleball court, and cornhole to keep yourself or your kiddos preoccupied," mentions a visitor to Yellowstone Trail RV Park.
Water activities: During summer months, riverside campgrounds provide safe wading spots. "The kids all went swimming in the river and warmed up by the fire after. It was so much fun," shares Jennifer H. about Windhaven RV Resort, recommending "Get a river front spot for sure!"
Tips from RVers
Dump station access: For boondocking or partial hookup sites, availability of dump stations varies. At Warren Bridge Campground, "The dump station and several water spigots were really useful too. Perfect for a night or two," notes Brittany M., while another adds "Even an RV dump included in camp fee ($5 if not camping)."
Big rig accommodation: Most RV parks can handle larger motorhomes, but advance research prevents surprises. "Easy access campground with dump station & potable water available. Nice level sites with space between them, but no trees. Right off the highway so easy in & out," reports Moe F. about Warren Bridge.
Hookup details: Electrical service types vary between parks. "We pulled in 8pm on a Wednesday and there were about half the spots left and only two more filled in after us. Perfect for a night or two," notes a camper about Warren Bridge, which offers no hookups but convenient water access points.
