Best RV Parks & Resorts near Gillette, WY

Every site is a pull through. Generous spacing between sites. This is a first come, first served campground. We arrived at 2 pm on Fri Sept 6, and it was full by 4 pm. Flush toilets on site and water, but no showers or laundry. Access to hiking trails from the campground. Garbage dumpsters available, but no dump station. Payment (cash or check) is made at entrance, envelopes available. Campground management came through often. There are two loops. Loop B is more friendly to big rigs than Loop A. Cell signal was weak. Campground gets dark at night, perfect for stargazing. There is a KOA near the park entrance as well as some retail. From campground, you have to drive to the visitor center.

I camped here for two days recently with my wife in a 26 foot travel trailer.  We entered the campground around 10 am and were able to quickly find a nice spot at the outer perimeter of the campground with a view.  This was campsite B7.  It was level, with a fire ring, free wood, clean aluminum picnic table and maybe 150 feet from the clean and well-maintained restroom with flush toilets.  Water is available from nearby spigots.  There are lots of trees and the campground hosts maintain the peace and quiet.  There are no water, electric and sewer sites, which was fine, since we are used to dry camping.  I think that the lack of services makes it easier to find an open spot.  Of course, there was great access to Devil's Tower.  We really enjoyed the hiking trail around the base of the Tower.  It is easy, and is asphalt paved all the way.  There are other trails as well, but not paved.  I was very happy with our experience here.

Great location if you want to explore Devil's Tower and hike around. A short drive past the entrance of the park is this convenient first come first serve campground. 

The campground has 2 loops with all pull through gravel sites which vary in degree of levelness. 35 foot max RV length. There is no privacy but everyone there was really nice and neighbors chatted with each other. Lots of trees and some sites are shadier than others and some have amazing views of Devil's Tower. There are no hook ups and despite most of the sites being taken by RVs there was very minimal generator noise which is always a welcome surprise.

Each site had a fire pit though no fires allowed at the time we were there and signs posted and pits were taped off reminding you not to start a fire. There was also picnic tables at each site as well. Flush toilets, garbage and recycling as well as drinking water available. You can access hiking to the trails around the tower from this campground. 

Also near the campground is Prairie Dog Town where you can watch these cute critters pop in an out of their holes and run about screaming. Do not try to feed or touch them. They do not want to be in your selfie nor do they want to be your friend. 

You can walk a trail from the campground and a short distance on the road back over the bridge out the entrance gate to the 2 stores just outside the park. One is KOA run and had a cafe as well. Both had some camping supplies and souvenirs as well as beer:).

Decent cell coverage from ATT, Verizon and Tmobile

I enjoyed my visit and even extended it 2 days for a total of 5 nights. Park like setting with large cottonwoods, fire rings and picnic tables. I had a perfect view of Devils Tower from my site A9. The water spigot near this site was inoperable however. The bathrooms could be cleaner, but in fairness there were probably 100 people staying in Loop B that were using Loop A’s bathroom as well for changing and putting makeup on, etc. ~ it was some special tribal event, so the bathrooms got pretty gross. Can’t beat the price, $10/night with a senior pass. I will definitely stay there again when I am in the area.
