"There are so many different types of sites, from those with several trees, lake side, open, or group spots. Water is available for filling bottles, but not campers."
"We were pleasantly surprised to find the favored spot open since it is walk up only in the park this late in the season. "
"We camped Memorial Day weekend and had an amazing spot well away from the main road. Very private."
"Definitely one of our most favorite Wyoming spots from the trip."
$20 - $100 / night
"Honestly, when we first pulled in, we were a little put off by the proximity to the highway, and a policy they have to keep your cc information on a handwritten card."
"Right off interstate on Exit 2, as you enter WY. Camp store has good supply of drinks, clothes and souvenirs. Cafe was closed but did look good."
"We were driving through the area and needed a quick/easy place to camp for the night. Even in mid-July, we were the only people there. Spots are labeled well, with great fire pits at every sight."
"You can buy camp permits or day passes at the front entrance."
$57 - $48 / night
"It was close to the showers, restrooms, and laundry room. This was very quiet and peaceful. The RVs didn't run the generators so it was great! The camp hosts were very friendly and helpful."
"Overall the staff was nice and the area was clean so we'd stay again if we go back to/thru Wyoming."
"This spot was a very pleasant surprise and quite frankly didn’t think this part of Wyoming would be so pretty! The sites are very well spaced so once you’re parked, you feel completely alone."
"Easy access, close to rest stop, tucked off next to highway but relatively quiet."
"Downside is the train tracks are close by. Not a problem though, it is a no train horn area. Nice RV spots with water and electric. Sewer dump on property as well."
"Nice near town everything you need is available"
$20 / night
"This is a great little campground situated right within the Happy Jack trail system. It used to be all FCFS which was great, but now some are reservable. There are 3 sites that are always FCFS now."
"The campsite itself was not extremely busy for a Friday night, but the nearby trailhead is extremely busy and people often drive/bicycle through the campsite."
"The washboard road coming off the highway is harsh but it smooths out when you get closer to camp. There are at least three camp site I saw that are all secluded by boulders and trees."
GuideThis is a nice campground, the sites are not huge but they are adequate. Dowdy Lake is really scenic and the trout fishing was decent, I saw a lot of people catching at least one or two fish. The vault toilets are cleaned daily. I had 1-2 bars of LTE on T-Mobile. Elevation is just over 8,000 feet.
TravelerGrandparents lived in Laramie, brought us here a Happy Jack road for picnics and rock hounding. Over 50 years ago! The area still looks the same, but much more crowded. We stayed a week and enjoyed watching the climbers throughout the day. Our 27' TT fit easily into the site. It is one of my favorite places and would recommend it to all!
TravelerThe road to lost lake requires high clearance. It is located 30 min away from Red Feather Lakes. There are a lot of dispersed camp sites. Ours was set back from the road, in a meadow, surrounded by boulders. Loved it! The lake itself is small, but had enough space for many groups of people to enjoy. Folks were swimming, paddle boarding, and we enjoyed a Colorado version of a “Beach Day.” My fav spot to camp so far.
ScoutGood but not great views. Interesting rock formations. Decent if you prefer front country, good number of available sites. Better places for hiking and site seeing in area.
TravelerThis spot was close to 80 but certainly off the beaten path. There’s a stunning meadow with a little pond at the end of the road. If you get lucky you can camp right next to that. There aren’t many spots, but they’re all lovely. 10/10
GuideStayed here on a Saturday night in June and arrived around 10pm. This site is awesome- there are many labeled camp sites and the dirt road was easy to drive down. Some of the secondary roads that go off the main dirt road are a bit more tough. Would not recommend hauling a big trailer down some of them (although I did see a lot of big trailers). The only problem we faced was that the place was FULL. There are many signs that say “camping in designated areas only”, but all of them were full so we ended up parking our van on the side of the dirt road, which was fine. So if you’re going to stay here, I would recommend arriving early.
Otherwise, it’s a stunning place. The stars are beautiful. The land is beautiful. There are even some cows that were hanging around us!
GuideNo host at the camp yet. The forest leading to the campground appears to have experienced a wild fire but the campground itself is green and thriving. The water was not working yet. There are vault toilets and dumpsters. It really is beautiful and peaceful though
TravelerAt the campground at the end of the road, there’s a picturesque little lake to admire, though not good for swimming. It’s conveniently located near the highway, yet it still maintains a secluded feel.
ScoutGreat area for trails, but very little shade in the campgrounds
