Best Dispersed Camping near Devils Tower National Monument, WY

Last mile of gravel going in to site was pretty rough.  Sign indicated that the road would be impassible if wet/raining.  Site was flat and gravel.  Spot for tents just up the hill.  No fire ring, no picnic table, no hook-ups or garbage.  Dispersed camping / boondocking.  No fee.   Fantastic view of the country-side including Devil's Tower.  Site appeared secluded and unused.  Another vehicle with a tent did join us during the night, but there was room for both of us!

There are a few dispersed camping spots along this road which also holds the trailhead for Mt. Roosevelt Friendship Tower. There was one pull through site that has no campfire signs and then two or three other spots. We seemed to be lucky and got the last open spot. We got here around 4 pm. The site we got was beautiful and had a lot of room for us to pitch a tent. Plenty of trees to go pee in but also an open spot where we could stargaze through the tent. There was some traffic on the road, more than you would think for such a windy gravel road. The first part of the road up until the trailhead had quite a bit of washboard which was a little scary on the sharp curves with steep drop offs. Enough Verizon cell service to text and make calls. Enough AT&T service to get WiFi on our SubaruLink. No water that we saw that we could use or filter. Had some people pull into our spot at different times not knowing it was taken. 9:30 pm was the last one.

There were multiple pull off dispersed camping areas all along the Mt. Roosevelt road. The road is easy to drive if coming off the CanAm Hwy side of the mountain. Walking distance to the Roosevelt Friendship Tower hike which is highly recommended. Tons of bees in the wildflowers but they never bothered us. Pack in and pack out! Some traffic driving along the road but never overwhelming and quiet at night. Great base to visit Deadwood, Lead, Spearfish Canyon, and Devils Tower

struck out on any camping close to devils tower, so we ended up coming here. fun little dirt road coming up the mountain to the sight. really only like 2 spots. lower spot is medium sized and we saw someone else there in a jeep. friends and i took the top spot which was big enough for a truck, a large suv, and sedan.

very quiet secluded area. got cold at night in august, but very beautiful views.

in the dark we kept seeing a tuxedo cat randomly watching us, not sure if it’s a stray or an outside cat from one of the nearby farms, didn’t come over when we enticed it and ran when we shone the light but cute little campsite friend i guess.

This was a great spot to spend a night near Devil's Tower. The road getting there was rough but we were the only ones there. We even had a few free range horses and a donkey pass by in the evening.

The road said impassable when wet. It had just rained and was wet. We were able to make it up in our truck camper Used 4wd and yes, it was quite slippery. The site is nice and peaceful if you don't mind cows mooing. Lol.

There was a fantastic view of devils tower. The spot was very easy to access although it would be difficult without a 4x4

Pretty well maintained dirt road up to 2 sites that look across the Devils Tower. The drive up (at least at night) feels like you're in the middle of nowhere but you're actually pretty close to Devil's Tower. We got in after dark and the two spots were taken. One up on the grassy hill is a large flat spot that could accommodate a few camp set-ups, if we showed up in daylight probably would have asked. The lower one right off the road (west) has a turnaround and could accommodate 2-3 vehicles who are camping with eachother. We camped between the two sites since we came up at dark and wanted to give the folks camping there adequate space. Quiet, serene, mildy buggy.

Campground is nice and flat with a big parking and camping area and great view of the Devil’s tower but the road leading to it is full on slopes and potholes which makes it hard to get to the campground. There is also a sign that says that it is impassable when wet.

Drove up in a class c 30ft pulling a jeep no problems erwin rd was dry would not attempt that road when unless 4wd

The camping site is easily accessible by vehicle (note there was a sign that said impassable when wet). We were able to easily make it to the site in a small FWD van. The road was bumpy and had small rocks. Most standard vehicles can make the drive up. There’s a large lot to park and and a flat grassy area above for tents. We were the only people using the site that night.

If you walk up to the grassy area, you can catch a view of Devils Tower. Overall, nice place to stay for the night.

Loved this spot! The dirt road right off the highway is pristine, not even washboardy. Once you branch right for the last mile or so, there are a few small rocks and ruts but still smooth. At the top of the hill, there’s a left turn that splits - if you go right, you’ll go across a big flat meadow and at the end find a beautiful site with a great view of Devil’s Tower. We were surprised only one other car was here on a Saturday night. We experienced intense wind overnight, but still loved the locatiob

Great location about 15 minutes from Devil’s Tower. Great area that has flat grassy areas for tents or large flat-ish dirt areas that could fit a decently large camper. Was a great stop.

Road on the way in is steep and rocky. AWD recommend and would be very difficult to navigate if it’s super muddy.

It rained the last two days but I was able to get up the hill in an overloaded AWD. There were some pretty hefty ruts so choose your lines carefully. I rolled up pretty late, maybe 7p. There was only one other person here and of course they took the spot. The lower spot was a big mud pit and the upper field is overgrown. It looks like a fire came through here maybe last year so the grass has bounced back really well in some spots. Seems pretty quiet human-wise with lots of birds and big noises, which I prefer. Not too far from Devil’s Tower and a great spot for me to stop over for the night. If I stayed longer, I’d nab that good spot. LOL.

.. says the sign when entering the final road to the campground. But we were lucky, no rain before and got in without any issues towing small teardrop trailer. Upper area is flat with grass. A bit exposed to the wind but we were able to set up the trailer to protect it from the gusts of wind. The plateau is pretty large, especially when empty. Our Neighbour’s took the prime spot with a view to the Devils Tower. We enjoyed the place for a night nevertheless, especially when lots of other camp places are still closed for the season.

A heap of broken if I would have known about the road before traveling up it I would never have taken my 29 ft trailer to the top. However I did make it. It's a beautiful place away from everything very quiet. I will add more to this review after I spend the night or two.

There are 4 different sites in the area, with each accommodating multiple vehicles. Access to the local creek. Sort of difficult to find a level spot but we made it work. We fit comfortably in a truck camper but I wouldn't go too much bigger here. Good Verizon service!

The first pull of recommended was too steep for our van. We pulled off at a treat spot about 1/4 mile down the road with awesome views. Close to town but quiet
