Best Cabin Camping near Glendo, WY

We stayed here for 4 days. We weren’t sure what to expect from such a small town but we’re pleasantly surprised. This KOA Has putt putt golf for $2,activities, a tennis court, basketball and swimming. Also something extra is a s’more shack and coffee cabin. There are ample amount of RV and tent sites. They offer cable and WiFi. We were frustrated with the WiFi as it was very spotty. There are 3 cabins with picnic benches and grill, and a yurt that they use for activities. As there is a fire ban right now there were no fire rings. The shop has RV and other essentials needed if you need. Also has a few groceries and souvenirs. Staff are helpful and kind and we had a nice stay.

Its a beautiful state park and I’m glad to have camped here during my travels around Wyoming. I stayed at Newell Bay as its first come first serve. The price for the park is $30 for 1 day and 1 night which is a bit expensive. My only complaint is that the showerhouse is closed! I wish it had stated that on the website, it said it was open as of April 15th but they havent turned the water on yet. If you plan to use the showerhouse, call the park first and check its open!

I think I gave this park four stars out of low expectations. Middle of nowhere Guernsey Wyoming the state park wraps around a reservoir with beautiful rock formations. There are campgrounds scattered all over and around the campground. If you were in a big rig this is not the easiest place to camp… Be careful where the office places you if you are in a large trailer RV. There are many switchbacks and some elevation to climb. Once you’re on top at the overlooks it’s very scenic. Be careful of the weather change… Within 24 hours the forecast changed from 80° to 35° fortunately we had a Yurt with wood stove. 

Douglas KOA

Home of the Jackalope! Douglas, Wyoming that is. They claim the original “discovery” of the Jackalope and everyone else just followed suit. There is a Jackalope silhouette outside of town on a hill, there are Jackalope lick Nessie’s throughout town and there is a Jackalope Square that has Farmers Market on Saturday’s that has a huge statute of said Jackalope.

The KOA is a larger one and more so like a parking lot then anything else. The staff were awesome! Very friendly and informative. A few things of note, the trash receptacles are placed throughout the campground which is nice. The dog park is a bigger one and there were actually locations for horses.
Not much shade AT ALL, and the wind whip’s through a lot. I was informed though that’s a Wyoming thing anyway. Miniature golf, swimming pool and camp kitchen as expected. The WIFI , I’m sorry to say, sucks and is not private. I’ve noticed in my travels though that NONE of the KOA’s have very good WIFI. I was fortunate and got an end site, near the office/shower (clean w/short shower heads and counters)and I had shade. A few days before I arrived in early September it had already snowed and the temperature had dropped into the 20’s. It was in the 50’s my first day and is a comfortable 75 today with a lite breeze. Douglas has some interesting history and historical sites nearby so it’s worth a visit if your exploring the old west or just driving through. Make sure you keep your gas above 1/2, the highways are a long way between gas stations and the speed limits are usually 70-80 MPH.

No need to print receipt as the email says but if you don’t print it, call ahead. Also if you plan to use the lake, call ahead. It is drained once per year, usually in July. It’s only empty for about a week to ten days. We stayed at Sandy Point. Close to the lake, provided there is one. Also close to the train tracks. I like trains so it wasn’t an issue. Also they are going slow and are pretty quiet for freight trains. This is a great place to base to see numerous historical sites.

This camp site is not ideal for those who want a camp site away from it all. There are a ton of RVs that are setting up at all hours of the day and night. My camp site was near a very active railroad track. The bathroom facilities were clean and we were by the resevoir. Overall, just not what I was looking for. The site was super pricey once all the fees were included. Not worth it.

Easy access and views of the lake. Forested; private sites available. Interesting history/museum. Some short trails. Bring bug spray.

From the grumpy lady at the gate to the trashed campsite this could have been a bad experience but I didn’t let that get to me. Cleaned it all up and set my sites on a great weekend. Then the train came... and another one... all night long. At least there was water this time. All of the camper sites were supposed to be full so I decided to use a tent only option. So many open sites when I got there and they never filled. IDK maybe it’s a Covid thing. Not really a campsite I was to use again. I was at Sandy (should be called thorny) beach.

A wonderful place to tent camp. Very quiet area, and sites are usually secluded. Gorgeous views. The reservoir is not good for fishing, so we went to the nearby grayrocks reservoir and had luck there. Also, the water is freezing! We tried swimming. There was also a small wildfire while we were there.

It was absolutely beautiful. Calm and quiet. We had a wonderful time!

It was a weekend trip with a few of our friends. 6 Adults and 5 children. Three Rvs ranging from 16 ft to 35 ft. We got the group camping sites at Fish Canyon Campground 200A+B and 203A+B. We had planned on spending most of our time at the water but didn’t do much research. This was not the campground for that. Highly recommend going to Sandy Beach or any of the cove campgrounds if you plan on swimming. Watch out for high winds.

Fun place to go.

Cool hiking trails, fun biking trails, good place to explore history, swim and boat.

Campsites are spread out so you can find what you need.

Stayed in the Yurts here for part of my honeymoon. Great views and very peaceful. Close to the Oregon Trail Ruts

We stayed here and traveled to the local sites. The camping area has a great view. The RV sites are pretty level and some have power and water. At the entrance is a good place to fill up fresh water tanks if you are staying at a dispersed site. The dump station is at the entrance as well. The staff and Park Rangers were very kind and courteous as we visited the different historic locations. We will definitely return.

Check out at 11 and they close bathrooms 10 to 12, not smart since u have tent sites and they need a bathroom. Tent spots were nice with grass. No fire pits! Overall fine.

Although it was affordable for our 25 foot 5er, we barely fit in our assigned spot length wise. We parked the truck beside the camper which took up most of the outdoor space. The water tastes a bit funny even after our filter system. We stayed twice, coming and going so not a horrible place but also not a destination campground.

We have never been letdown with KOA sites. Always friendly staff and quiet parks.
