Best RV Parks & Resorts near Encampment, WY

375 Reviews

Several RV parks near Encampment, Wyoming accommodate various motorhome sizes and travel needs. Deer Haven RV Park in Saratoga offers water, electric and sewer hookups on riverfront sites that can accommodate big rigs. The park operates seasonally from mid-May through October with full hookup RV pads throughout the property. "The campground was easy access to get to. Site is right on the river with beautiful views," noted one visitor about Deer Haven. Red Desert Rose Campground in Rawlins provides full-service amenities including 50-amp electrical hookups, sewer connections, and potable water at their pull-through RV sites, while Sentinel Mountain RV & Quick Stop offers more basic electric and water hookups with a nearby market.

The mountain terrain around Encampment affects road conditions to several RV parks, particularly during winter months. Many campgrounds in the Medicine Bow National Forest area close seasonally, with most operating from late May through September. Cell service varies significantly between locations, with stronger signals available in Saratoga and Rawlins compared to more remote mountain sites. Dump stations are available at Red Desert Rose Campground and at the forest station near Laramie Overlook. According to one RV traveler, "The sewer receptacle is not threaded, so you'll need to otherwise secure your sewer hose" at some facilities. Pet-friendly policies exist at most parks, though restrictions may apply. Roads to some destinations include gravel sections with washboard surfaces in curves, potentially challenging for larger motorhomes.

    Dugway Campground

    Peaceful Tent Camping near Sinclair

    WY BLM Campground Nestled near Sinclair, Wyoming, the BLM campground offers a tranquil escape with five sites, including a convenient pull-through option. Situated at Exit 219 on I-80, follow signs towards Seminoe State Park on CR 351. The campground is roughly 6 miles from the interstate(N 41.86077 W 107.05328) and accessible even for small cars, even in rainy conditions. 

    While there's no drinking water available, the free campsites are worth the slightly bumpy road. The area is dog-friendly, perfect for those traveling with their furry companions. Basic amenities include scattered picnic tables and a pit toilet deep within the camp. No cell service (Verizon). 

    Be prepared for mosquitos, but the serene and picturesque surroundings more than compensate. For those seeking a nature-focused experience, this spot is ideal. Consider it a playground of natural beauty. Restrooms are limited to the pit toilet, and picnicking is a joy with tables dotted throughout the area. Despite the insect presence, this campground offers a peaceful haven, making it an excellent choice for tent camping enthusiasts.

    Steamboat Springs KOA

    Just a minute outside of Steamboat

    Right outside of Steamboat Springs is Steamboat KOA. This campground has so many perks. Not only is there a beautiful Mountain View but it also has the Yampa river running through it. It has Rv sites, cute cabins, and tent sites. The Rv sites are separated in areas by what you need(electric, water, sewage). The RV sites each have picnic tables and a fire ring. There are regular cabins and deluxe ones which both include tables and fire rings. The tent area is located across the river and is so peaceful. There is a general store, putt putt, propane fill, a small dog run, bikes for rent, swimming in season and the city bus comes to take you to town for free. Although it is located right off the road, it was still peaceful and I felt safe. My favorite part about this campground is the fact you can stand on the bridge or sit by the Yampa River and enjoy the beauty and sounds, and watching people fly fish.

    Hidden Gem!

    Absolutely beautiful small BLM Camping right on the River Platt. We pulled our fifth wheel toy hauler with zero issues and parked in a large dirt pad.

    Encampment River Campground — Bureau Of Land Management

    Nice secluded spots with trees next to the river

    With a total of 8 well-maintained sites, each equipped with picnic tables and fire rings, this campground strikes the perfect balance between comfort and wilderness. The availability of essential facilities like a vault toilet and trash cans makes roughing it a bit easier. Plus, the added convenience of a boat ramp is a definite bonus for those looking to get out on the water. 

    Whether you're in a small rig or a larger one, you're covered here. There's a convenient pull-through site for ease of access, and the remaining spots can easily accommodate rigs between 20 to 25 feet. What's more, most of the sites are nestled beneath the cool shade of majestic trees, offering a cozy respite from the sun. The combination of well-equipped sites, riverside tranquility, and a touch of shade makes for an decent camping experience.

    Big Creek Lakes Campground

    Beautiful, remote gem in the Rockies

    We camped here July 25th-29th, 2018 with our 5 children (4-13) in our pop up camper. 

    First thing to know is this is a remote area of CO at 9,000+ ft. elevation. It is also an area that has been affected by wildfire (2016). It is still absolutely gorgeous!

    Worst part—> You will have to travel down a gravel/dirt road for ~30 miles to get to the lake and campground. Sections of it are TERRIBLY washboarded. Plan for over an hour to navigate through. You will be rewarded at the end! 

    There is zero cell service (we have Sprint and Verizon), no electric/water/sewer hook ups or bathhouses. There are pit toilets throughout the campground that appeared to be very well maintained and cleaned often. There are also numerous water spigots throughout with potable water. 

    The sites are all HUGE, almost all are pull through and many offer beautiful lake views with trails directly from your campsite to the water. We were in site 14. It did not have a water view, but was still amazing. All sites are gravel and appear to be fairly level. Most have pine trees, boulders and other natural landscaping that adds to the beauty of the campground. Very nice metal fire pits and sturdy, large picnic tables (though many are slightly bowed) were present at each site we saw. Bear proof dumpsters were easily accessible. 

    We had hundreds of chipmunks visit us each day to clean up the kids’ crumbs. We also saw antelope and deer on the drive in and several moose, elk and a coyote off the highway heading to RMNP. 

    There are two trailheads in the campground, lots of areas to fish, a boat dock and horse corral. 

    This was our very first run at dry camping. We were 10 hours from home with 5 kids! We may be crazy, but lots of memories were made and we are calling this trip a big success! 

    This campground was only $10/night and a true hidden gem in the Rockies. (Those roads though...ugh!)

    Steamboat Springs KOA

    Great for Winter Camping

    Women’s restrooms were great and hook ups were awesome. Camped here in our pop up truck camper for a ski weekend and it was great - the free city bus stops by the campground so was super easy to ride to the ski resort and downtown for dinner!

    South Brush Creek Campground (Wy) — Medicine Bow Routt N Fs & Thunder Basin Ng

    Drive north to visit the springs in saratoga

    South Brush Creek Campground offers a secluded escape, reachable by a 2-mile gravel road off the beaten path. The journey from a paved road adds a touch of adventure to the experience. Keep in mind that the campground operates from Memorial Day weekend through September, so it's perfect for a summer getaway.

    20 sites, including 6 pull-through spots for smaller trailers, complete with picnic tables, fire grates, and even toilets and trash service. But what really impressed me was the range of activities. 

    The Brush Creek Hiking Trail System had me exploring the area's natural beauty, and the Stump Hollow and Cedar OHV trails has a burst of excitement for off-road fans. If you're into fishing, the nearby streams are perfect. The Brush Creek Visitor Center's just a stone's throw away on Hwy 130. If you're looking for a mix of relaxation and adventure, this campground's got you covered.

    Teton Reservoir Campground - CLOSED

    Serene views of the reservoir and landscape

    There are probably 7 or 8 spots with picnic tables. Most have fire rings and a grill but not all. Bathrooms within walking distance. Dry and bare ground scape so no wood scavenging to be done here. Bring in firewood for sure! Also wouldn’t recommend tent camping as the ground is gravel with lots of rocks of various sizes! Easy road in so could bring a trailer or RV of any size. Pretty views. Only one other group here so quiet and lots of space
