Cody Trout Ranch Camp offers distinctive glamping accommodations in Wyoming's scenic Shoshone River Valley, approximately 40 miles east of Frannie. The property features beautifully appointed tipis situated directly along the riverbank, providing an upscale outdoor experience with comfortable bedding and rustic-luxury furnishings. Big Quiet Farm Stay & Campground, located near Powell, houses yurts and unique farm-based glamping options with amenities including drinking water, picnic tables, fire rings, and firewood provided on-site. Both locations maintain clean shower facilities and restrooms for guest comfort, with the Trout Ranch offering additional fishing opportunities in their stocked pond when the river conditions aren't suitable. A recent visitor mentioned, "The tipis are gorgeously appointed and so comfortable to sleep in. They are right on the Shoshone, definitely a great and five star experience."
The glamping sites provide convenient access to the region's natural attractions while offering distinctive on-site experiences. Cody KOA, approximately 45 minutes from Frannie, features teepee accommodations alongside traditional camping options, with guests appreciating the well-maintained facilities and proximity to Yellowstone National Park's east entrance. The Greybull KOA, closer to Frannie, offers cabin-style glamping with full amenities including a swimming pool, playground, and access to a two-mile walking path along the Big Horn River levee. Seasonal availability varies by location, with most glamping options operating from May through September, though some remain open year-round. One camper highlighted, "We loved everything about this campground. After a long drive, this was amazing to arrive at a well organized ground, very level with picnic tables and trees and calming surroundings." Visitors should note that advance reservations are recommended for these popular glamping destinations, especially during peak summer months.

GuideI can’t think of one negative comment, even the towns 9 o’clock curfew alarm was charming. The concrete sites are level and spacious with tables, fire pits and charcoal grills. The grounds are well cared with a small playground and dog run. Staff are friendly and helpful. There is a paved walk just steps out of the campground where we took a walk and watched deer. We only stayed one night but wish that all our campgrounds could be like this one.
GuideWe are currently staying at Cody / Yellowstone East KOA Holiday in Cody, Wyoming, and it has been a fantastic basecamp for exploring the area.
We booked one of their full-hookup Paw Pen sites, and if you're traveling with dogs, this setup is a total game changer. Each site includes a private fenced-in area where your dogs can relax outside with you while staying safely contained. The pen even comes equipped with a trash can, waste bags, and a covered shelter to help keep your pets comfortable during the hotter parts of the day.
The campground also offers plenty of activities for families. Amenities include a swimming pool, hot tub, kiddie pool, jump pillow, playground, large outdoor chess set, and gem mining. There is no shortage of ways to keep the kids entertained after a day of sightseeing.
One of our favorite perks has been the complimentary pancake breakfast served every morning. The kids made sure not to miss it, and for good reason. The pancakes are excellent, and the gentleman cooking them is incredibly friendly and welcoming.
If you're planning to attend the Cody Nite Rodeo, the KOA makes it easy. Tickets can be purchased right at the front desk, and the campground offers a free shuttle service that takes you directly to the rodeo entrance and brings you back afterward.
This was our family's first rodeo, and it exceeded every expectation. The atmosphere was welcoming, family-friendly, and packed with energy. The kids stayed engaged the entire evening and even had the opportunity to participate in activities down in the arena. Watching the cowboys and cowgirls work with their horses was truly impressive, showcasing a level of skill, care, and precision that is hard to appreciate until you see it in person. If you've never experienced a rodeo before, I highly recommend adding one to your travel plans.
While in the area, we also explored McCullough Peaks and Gilmore Hill. These scenic backroads wind through the McCullough Peaks Wild Horse Management Area, home to more than 140 wild horses roaming freely across approximately 110,000 acres. We were fortunate enough to spot a small herd of three horses grazing peacefully and spent some time watching them. We also saw an incredible number of pronghorn throughout the area.
If you have a capable vehicle and are comfortable driving on gravel and dirt roads, I highly recommend making the trip out to McCullough Peaks. The wide-open landscapes, abundant wildlife, and chance to see wild horses in their natural habitat make for an unforgettable Wyoming experience.
GuideThis is a great spot for a stop over! $15 to the USFS, clean vault bathrooms, metal fire pits, bear boxes—it’s a great set up! You are still really close to the road, there is no escaping it. But if you stay close to the mad rushing stream, you won’t hear the cars as much! We were the only ones here too!
TravelerStayed here 2 times. One time in the tipis In July and one time in an RV site in early May. The tipis are gorgeously appointed and so comfortable to sleep in. They are right on the Shoshone, definitely a great and five star experience. You can fish on the river if it’s not running too fast and there is a Trout pond you also can fish for free.
The RV sites are all pull-through and very nice grace ,but unfortunately can’t see the river from them. The showers and laundry are clean but laundry is limited. They have a coffee shack but not open. Lots of great birds of prey in the area. Close to Cody.
A hot tub and larger laundry would make this place perfect.
RangerVery nice little campground albeit a little pricey. If you are looking for a good base camp to go adventuring along the Beartooth Highway, this is a great option. Right along Beartooth Lake, vault toilets in each of the 3 loops and running water in Loop B. Loop C is set the farthest back and some of the sites aren't the most level. I opted for Loop B and it was quite pleasant. You have to get your payment envelope at Loop A. The road can be a bit rough. At $15 a night it seemed like a lot for what I needed. No service with Verizon. Great access to hiking trails.
RangerStaff was very friendly. Sites are gravel. Cute little coffee house. Laundry room was clean & spacious. Friendly horses as you enter. Nice size dog area, but beware of the attacking black birds!!!! We had Wi-Fi when we first checked in. Within a few minutes rain came through & we lost power. The Wi-Fi at the sites never came back on. We lost power twice while we were there. The local power company needs to trim some trees or update the grid. Close to a highway but pretty quiet. Nice little guns & ammo shop on site. Other than the power & wifi issue this is a great campground!!
ScoutVery helpful office staff, help backing in (the dreaded electrical meters☹️), very clean. No picnic tables ; pets allowed, but I did not find a pet area? Very clean place; only stayed one night, but would go back.
LegendA local couple told me that we should check out this campground. They said to take your time and enjoy the Chief Joseph scenic highway drive with all of its overlooks. The scenery driving up out of Cody is unique and inspiring. We stopped halfway down the highway at Dead Indian Campground and enjoy the scenery from camp.
The campground is split on two sides of the creek. The host is on the Cody side along with 5 sites. The garbage bin is also over there. We chose to stay in site 10 which is one of the other 5 across the creek. You take the main highway over the creek and then into this area. This site is large and has a short trail that leads right to the creek. We enjoyed the short walk on the campground road the continues past our site. We found a clear view of the powerful creek and a beautiful skyline. One site is a secluded walk-in for tenters. There are clean vault toilets on each side. Bring in your own water or purify some from the creek. The vegetation is a bit tall in the sites on this side. Site 10 was great but the others looked less inviting.
There is a hiking trail just down the road in each direction. One leads into the canyon and the other into the meadows. The trail into the canyon is the route that Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce used to avoid a trap by the military. Just as we were about to hike the thunderstorm rolled in. Thus we can only say that the start of the trail was good especially with the history adding value.
This year it’s cool but the host said it’s normally hot. She said all the green grass is usually yellow.
This is a nice stop along a beautiful scenic drive. This is grizzly territory so take appropriate precautions.
Frannie, Wyoming sits at an elevation of 4,200 feet in the Bighorn Basin, creating a high-desert environment characterized by dramatic temperature shifts between day and night. The camping season typically runs from May through September, with July and August offering the most reliable weather conditions. Winter temperatures frequently drop below freezing, making off-season camping challenging without proper cold-weather gear.

"The park also has just enough amenities to make it a great location for couples or families looking for a central spot from which to enjoy adventures to the main attractions," notes Steel G.
Waterfall hiking: Five Springs Falls Campground offers a short half-mile trail to a waterfall above the campground. "There is a big waterfall up at the top of the campground, short hike. Spot had a bench, 2 picnic tables and a firepit. The creek was rushing right below the site," shares Kelsie S.
Boating access: Island Lake Campground provides water recreation opportunities. "We paddled our dogs to the islands and had the best time, saw 2 firepits on one... the hiking scenery is amazing," writes Bettina S.

River proximity: Beartooth Lake Campground offers sites next to running water. "We ended up in C19 and I'd highly recommend coming down to the last loop as there are only 4 sites and back here and two babbling brooks running down to the lake," shares Kathryn N. Another camper notes, "Site 19 is right on a rapidly flowing river that enters Beartooth Lake."
Walkable access: Greybull KOA provides convenient pathways for recreation. "Access to 2 mile bike/walking on the levee behind," notes Mary, while another visitor mentioned, "There is a paved walk just steps out of the campground where we took a walk and watched deer."
Weather variability: Beartooth Lake Campground experiences dramatic weather changes. "Hail greets us just after setting up- and this is July! It's 50 degrees at 1 so we're planning to try and stay warm," reports Art S. Another camper advises, "Up over 9000 feet, prepare for cold nights and large mosquitoes in the summer."
Road conditions: Access to some campgrounds requires navigating challenging roads. For Beartooth Lake, "Beartooth highway is narrow and closes due to weather at times," notes one camper. At Five Springs Falls, a reviewer cautions, "The big drawback for some will be the very narrow, extremely switchbacked and steep road up to the campground (no guardrails)."
Site selection: Perry's RV and Campgrounds offers varied camping locations. "The tent sites didn't have electricity but that was fine for us. The price was good & the owner was nice," shares Valentina H. Another camper advises, "The sites at the bottom of the hill by the creek are amazing. Makes you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere."
Kid-friendly amenities: Cody Trout Ranch Camp offers activities for children. "My littles (6&8) loved the playground, the fishing pond, it's far enough from the road to be quiet and safe," reports Elizabeth M.
Pool access: Greybull KOA provides swimming options for families. "My 4 yo son loved the pool and the playground. My 12 daughter loved the WiFi and extra clean showers and bathrooms," shares Vena B.
Wildlife viewing: Big Quiet Farm Stay & Campground offers unique farm experiences. Ashley F. notes, "So many ways to stay, from Tee-Pees to tents! We've heard the breakfast Rod & Mickey offer is one of the best (sausage from the farm, need we say more?!)"
Electric connections: Billings Village RV Park has some logistical challenges. "Only hiccup was how low to the ground the electric was- we had to bend the cord to connect," cautions Kimberly L.
Site layout: Perry's RV and Campgrounds offers varied spaces. "The tent sites didn't have electricity but that was fine for us. The price was good & the owner was nice," notes Valentina H., who was just spending a night on the way to Yellowstone.
