  Jackson Hole/Snake River Park KOA

  Quiet campground

  Very quiet campground but tent sites are very close together. Tent sites can also get very muddy if it rains because there is very little grass at the sites.

  Jackson Hole/Snake River Park KOA

  Not motorcycle friendly

  All of the tent sites are not “accessible” by motorcycle, meaning they won’t allow you to try. We were on adventure bikes and were forced to camp in a small group site that I can only describe as a dirt corral. The prices were also ridiculous, however they had free showers and we were tired. Tent sites were $50-$65 and the rustic cabins started at $140. The tent sites are along the river, so there is deep sand and gravel. I would not stay again.

  Green River Lake Lodge - Bridger Teton National Forest

  One of my favorite places.

  16 miles of rough dirt road, I recommend tent camping only. It would be very hard on a RV. I would give 5 stars if road was better. This is one of my favorite places to camp. Clean well kept sites, fishing, hiking trails, and outstanding scenery. This is bear country, be prepared.

  Snake River Cabins & RV Village

  Beautiful tent sites along the river

  I loved the gorgeous river setting, and the fact that the tent sites seemed to be situated in prime spots along the river and creek. Great atmosphere with lots of kids running around. I had a few special requests and staff were extremely accommodating.

  Jackson Hole/Snake River Park KOA

  Horrible

  I would give this place no stars if I could! All of the spaces are crammed so tight. there is no room for anything. You would open your door into another camper! Do not camp at the tent sites if you have a tent bigger than a one person. Also be prepared to have trouble getting in and out if you don’t have a 4-wheel drive vehicle. Extremely dangerous road down to the tent sites. You can’t see cars that are coming your way and it’s barely wide enough for one car. This place is also the most outrageous campground I have ever stayed at. $65 bucks for nothing. Not even a site big enough for my tent and car. Mold all over the bathrooms. And extremely rude management. They have no idea what customer service is and do not care about you or your safety. Spend the money and stay somewhere else or make the drive and stay in one of the parks. This place is awful and noisy.

  Narrows Campground

  Cozy wooded campground

  We have tent camped and camped with an RV here. I really like this campground. It is well kept and the hosts are friendly. It is very beautiful with lots of trees. The campsite roads are narrow, a few of the sites are small, good for a tent or small pop up. If you have a large 5th wheel I would recommend a reservation. Our 20' trailer fits in the spots nicely. The boat ramp is easy to access with lots of parking for boat trailers.

  Trails End Campground Elkhart Park

  Tons of traffic

  Campsite is $7/night which isn't bad. Super calm and isolated sites. Tiny camp sites for tent camping. There was enough room for a tent, hammock and chair and nothing else. The rangers were very nice and everyone was friendly. Basically no privacy at these sites but everyone was quiet so it wasn't a big deal. The reason I'm giving the site 3 stars is because of how much traffic there was. I saw approximately 35 cars drive by 12 hours. This is a high traffic area.

  Jackson Hole/Snake River Park KOA

  Beautiful Location

  We pulled in for one night of tent camping, saw the tent area and decided to rent a cabin! We felt it was a bit to far from rest of sites and were fairly new to camping in the area so we opted for the safer site. Cabin was nice, nothing fancy but came with a bed, bunk beds, a porch swing & fire ring and was right on the Snake River. Price wasn’t bad considering you’re close to Grand Tetons/Yellowstone.

  East Table Campground

  Last minute find!

  The campground was full but we still thought we'd check to be sure there wasn't a last minute cancellation. The camp host was so kind. She had one more spot available across the road that was a group sight. She gave it to us! Although the site itself was pretty much a gravel parking lot (we were tent camping), there was water available, a fire ring, and VERY clean vault toilets/bathrooms.

  Jackson Hole/Snake River Park KOA

  Pitched a Tent

  Selected a great site w/o advanced registration - right on the Snake River. The staff was super nice, everything seemed adequate and clean. The upper area w/RVs and Cabins looked a little crowded, but the tent sites were tucked away. Really had a nice stay - our neighbors had SUPER whiny babies, but hey man... that's KOA sometimes. The river drowned out any other noises.

  White Pine Wyoming, Ski and Summer Resort

  Summer use also!

  This ski area has developed summer camping options. There is a camping area with several tent cabins, teepees, and 6 RV spots. Also a general tent camping area. Shower house is available to campers or $5 fee if just buying a shower. The 6 RV spots are very tight together and have zero shade (hence the three stars). RV spots with water and electric are $30, $20 no hookups. Tent cabins and teepees $30, bring your own tent $12. There are hiking and Mt biking trails for summer use. However, Fremont CG and Trails End CG are only $12/$6 senior per nite for "dry" RV camping and that is likely why the camping area at white pine was completely empty on a week in July. Too bad as it is a small local operation...but the close proximity to FS CGs is too much.

  Grey's River 10138L Dispersed

  Wonderful Riverside Dispersed Campsite

  Coordinates: 42.78898,-110.68746. Free. Camped here Sept 17, 2024. One of several dispersed campsites along Greys River Road (Forest Road 10138). Large dispersed site, set back from forest road; no concerns with dust coming into the site from passing vehicles. Should comfortably accommodate 3 or 4 rigs. Clean rock fire ring. Mostly level, dirt surface. Easy access from forest road. Open site surrounded by trees. Next to Grey's River; easy access for bank fishing. There is a set of trees that may accommodate hammock camping. Tent camping also possible. Area can get muddy after rain. Solar recharging possible in middle of afternoon. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. Loved this spot.

  Half Moon Lake Campground

  Primitive National Forest Campground with Sandy Beach

  $12 fee. Paid $6 with senior pass. Camped here for a few nights in the middle of September 2024. Camped one night in site #17, then moved the next day to site #13 along the lake. Beautiful wooded campground. Good primitive campground along a beautiful lake. Our site, site#13, backs up to the lake and has a private path to the lake's beach. The campground has a mix of pull-thru and back-in sites. Lots of trees on the campground. Several sites have enough foliage between them to offer privacy. Some sites are large; some are small. I didn't see any sites that offer good tent camping opportunities. Most sites are suitable for camper vans, car camping, RTTs and truck campers. I saw one towable. I don't think this campground can easily accommodate large rigs. There are two clean his/hers vault toilets, stock with tp. I couldn't find water. The campground has gravel/dirt roads and site driveways. Each site has a table, metal firering& bearbox. The forest road accessing the campground is gravel. The campground is well maintained. No hiking trails at the campground. The sandy beach on the lake was nice for a stroll. Also tried fishing, but no luck. No T-Mobile nor AT&T cell service. Would definitely stay here again.

  Boulder Lake

  Peaceful sites between the lake and two trails

  Gravel access road from the Boukder Wyoming area. Limited number of established sites in the formal campgound loop. Other folks camp near the Boulder Creek trailhead.

  Pit toilets, gravel parking, trail map displays. Picnic tables and fire rings. Suited for tents and smaller RVs. Bigger RVs camp near the trailhead parking area.

  The two trails up Boukder Creek and to Blueberry Lake go up into the Bridger Wilderness. Bring bear spray and fishing rods.

  Spring Creek Trailhead

  Solitude !

  Great dispersed camping area. Appears to be used by a lot of hunters. There is a nice big picnic table at one site and a few spots with campfire rings and meat poles. There are no other amenities. The Greys River is right near camp as well as Spring Creek. The Spring Creek Falls trailhead has a river crossing at the 2 mile mark, sign states it is 5 miles to the falls. I didn’t venture further than that. I stayed at this campground because I was hiking up Wyoming Peak in the morning. Wyoming Peak was a wonderful hike, highly recommend! This summer has had the most amazing wildflowers!

  Warren Bridge Campground and Picnic Area

  Nice little campground

  Very nice little off-ish grid campground in Wyoming. The camp host is super nice and there is water spaced out around the campground. All in all a nice place for only an hour south of Jackson Hole. Verizon At&t and Tmobile all had reception.

  Daniel Junction

  Affordable

  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!

  Wolf Creek Campground

  Close-ish to Grand Teton

  Close to Grand Teton but far enough away that it will likely be unfilled is the best thing about our experience here. When all the sites in Grand Teton National Park are full, hotel rooms in Jackson, WY are $500 a night and you are willing to make a little effort you'll find yourself on Hwy 89 turning into Wolf Creek Campground adjacent to the highway. You'll be squarely in the middle of Grizzly Bear** country, and you'll be reminded of this at the entrance with a lot of signs and a bear safe garbage dumpster with the roof smashed in.

  Just saying. Know your environment. First come, first serve for $16/night.

  Our site was directly next too the highway. There was no shade or trees to block the road. There was a bit of a mound but not enough to block the lights from truckers passing by all night long. The campground was completely overgrown with weeds including the tent pad we didn't even realize was there until the next day it was so overgrown. The ground is rock and hard pack dirt. Bring the good tent stakes.

  Each site had a campfire pit and bear-safe storage box. As we've found to be the case in Wyoming the bathroom was impeccably clean. This may have something to do with the bears.

  The campsite is across the road from the Snake River but it does not (as advertised on the Reserve America site) have a view of the river. It is in the valley along the highway with some towering cliff/mountains on either side. You can cross the street to check out the river and there is an overlook walking distance down the highway. There is a place to sit there, and a CLOSED trail down to the riverside. There is likely another access point to the trail but we didn't see it.

  The best thing about this site was the night sky. When there wasn't a truck passing by it was one of the darkest spots we've camped in awhile. The stars were pristine and since you had mountains blocking out light on both sides they seemed even brighter.

  *Pro-tip: Just down the road is the Yankee Doodle Cafe. It is a unique place. The food is exactly what you'll want from a diner after a bad night's sleep. The portions are big, and regardless of your political views you'll likely get a kick out of the Americana all over the walls. The owner, Gary and his Wife, will regale you with local stories if you're lucky enough to meet them.

  **There was a bear in camp while we were there. Be aware of bears.

  Fremont Lake

  Best large developed campground in area

  Nice large developed CG on a beautiful lake. Only 6.1 mi from Pinedale on paved road entire way but some potholes along the way. This is the best CG in area for most folks with TTs and RVs (tents not so much), as cg loops are paved and amenities/camp hosts present. 50 sites total, 16 sites are FF, rest can be reserved. $15 nite/$7.50 senior, 14d limit. Water spigots scattered around but no TT/RV dump and no full hookups. Cell signal is dependent on location..closer to lake or more on south end the cell signal is better. Very nice boat ramp area with parking and a dumpster (only one for entire CG). Day use beach at north end of cg is best for kayaks and other non-motorized water craft launches.

  Fremont Group Camp area is on the upper gravel rd just outside the main entrance to the regular Fremont CG. Group camp rate is $35 nite but camping is better suited to TT and RVs as the tent spots appear to be very limited.

  Super Accomodating

  Staff assisted getting us a campground last minute, so helpful. We were right on the river and were able to maneuver the campsite for our two tents. Bathrooms were clean and showers had hot water. Staff gave recommendations for rafting, sightseeing, etc. and office/store was filled with helpful items.

  Narrows Campground

  Nice shady CG

  Nice shady campground with 19 sites, most FF but did see a couple with reserved signs. Vault toilets, tables, fire rings, but no water or trash dumpsters. No cell signal. However an issue is the loop roads are narrow sandy-lumpy one- way and would be risky for a larger TT or RV without some advance recon and a spotter. Most sites are sized for tent/van or truck campers. $12 camp fee /$6.00 senior. 14 day limit. No camp host.

  Dubois-Wind River KOA

  Unique area

  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.

  East Table Campground

  Easy access to Alpine Canyon

  1/2 a mile from the West Table boat ramp. Too small for 5th wheels and big motorhomes - more appropriate for tents and Sprinter-sized motorhomes. Can hear the highway. Campground host made a solid effort to manage the Labor Day deluge.

  Group campsites are on the north side of the highway, individual campers should use the south side of the highway.

  Granite Creek Campground

  Remoe and relaxing

  The best thing about this campground is not even the campground - the scenery, the creek, the hot springs! Of course the campground itself is wonderful, with nice spacious sites and plenty of accessible vault toilets. Being October, the hook-ups were off, although that should be expected late season in Wyoming.

  The paid pool stays open until the end of October, we made sure to use it. The hot pools in the creek are also an option.

  Be aware the road does close to cars in winter.
