Greybull KOA accommodates pets at all campsites with full hookup options for RV travelers. Tent sites, RV spaces, and cabins welcome dogs with minimal restrictions, requiring owners to keep pets leashed and clean up after them. Campground facilities include clean restrooms, showers, a pool, and a walking path along the Big Horn River where campers frequently spot local wildlife with their dogs. Shell Campground, located minutes from Greybull, offers similar pet-friendly accommodations across their tent sites, RV spaces, cabins, yurts, and glamping options. The campground features picnic tables at each site and maintains very clean bathroom facilities. Sites with trees provide shade for pets during summer months, particularly important as daytime temperatures can reach 75°F with nighttime lows dropping to 50°F.
Paved walking paths near the Greybull KOA provide excellent exercise opportunities for dogs, with a two-mile levee trail directly behind the campground. The nearby Bighorn National Forest offers numerous dog-friendly hiking trails, though pets must remain leashed in developed areas. Free dispersed camping options exist on BLM land near Cody where pets can roam more freely but without amenities like drinking water or waste facilities. Shell Creek Campground features tent sites positioned alongside a stream that dogs particularly enjoy exploring. Campers should be aware that wildlife including deer, moose, and occasionally bears inhabit the region, requiring vigilant pet supervision. Local residents note that while train noise affects the Greybull KOA occasionally, the campgrounds remain otherwise quiet and ideal for pets sensitive to loud environments.
"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."
"Access to 2 mile bike/walking on the levee behind."
"The host is super friendly (as is her sweet and playful dog!) and is continuing her late husband’s dream of creating a camping oasis. Bathroom is clean and area is out of the town and relaxing."

RangerSights are not too close. A little run down but fine for camping. Indoor pool for kids, bar and restaurant on property. $2 per shower, only 2 available and you go through the bar to get to them. Saw our first moose on the way from Greybull, which is where someone recommended this spot. Free WiFi, but only available near building.
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.
ScoutStayed for just one night. Great sites and a beautiful area with plenty of trails to hike. Had a big bull moose sitting in our site upon arrival and he stayed nearby all day and night so caution with pets is recommended.
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.
LegendWe pulled off of highway 16 to just explore and found that this area has a lot of options for camping. It is a vast stretch of BLM land between Cody and Greybull. The road in is rocky dirt but easily doable in our 26’ class C. Any size rig should do fine here. The road splits many times and we just used satellite view to check where the roads lead and decided on one.
The area we stayed in is flat and quite large with a stone fire pit. It did get very windy but died down through the night. The view is amazing. It was quiet and overall a nice place to hike or bike around. Saw some prong horns on the way in too!
There was a group of hunters that came around to check things out in the evening, then returned the next morning and shot an antelope from the next ridge over, then took a very long time doing photoshoot with the carcass. Antelope hunting is big in Wyoming. Not sure when hunting season is but something to watch out for if you’re exploring out here. Other than that we were the only ones here.
No water or any other amenities so pack in and pack out. The area was mostly free from litter but there were some bullet casings around which is almost a given in BLM territory.
Good cell reception with ATT, Verizon and TMobile.
GuideThis was a great base camp near Cody, Wyoming however, it does get extremely windy here. It’s a good location about an hour from the East entrance to Yellowstone National Park. Also the Outlaw mountain biking trails are really good and they are nearby. There is plenty to do in Cody Wyoming. It’s a great town and this is a wonderful place to stay. Just beware of the deer mice ensure that your camping situation is completely sealed up. This is easy in and easy out and would be just fine in the rain. This is searchable on Google maps as Eagle Pass South. Eagle Pass North is on the other side of the road.
LegendEvery time we passed this campground we saw empty sites. This came in handy on this holiday weekend. We grabbed a site and before we even filled out the forms the rest were taken. It’s nice to have found a campsite at late notice on a holiday but they did fill up.
The campground has a couple loops. We ended up right next to the road. Consistent traffic became background noise if we didn’t pay attention to it. We would have preferred a quieter setting but at least we found a campsite. The campers in the other loop seemed louder and more active. One site had a bunch of dogs and a couple of sites had large groups. Our loop was quiet and restful.
The hosts keep the place clean. With all the rain we’ve had, the trail that links up to Sibley Lake trail was too muddy to hike. We walked up the hill away from the road where logging is being done. It led to a series of trails that seemed to lead to more logging.
The highlight was finding a mother and baby moose grazing right through our campsite. The host told us that a moose killed a dog recently. I’m keeping a closer eye on ours now.
We loved the moose coming into camp here! This is an ok campground but the closeness to the road wasn’t the best.
LegendTen miles north of Thermopolis, WY, is a small turn around parking area situated in the rolling terrain of western Wyoming. Wouldn't recommend coming out after dark if it's your first time here, as it's hard to find. But when you do, this is a very quiet and remote boondocking area. There are no bathrooms, or water close by so come prepared. And bring your solar power, there's plenty of it. We found the lot to be a little un-level and bumpy but had a few quiet nights here.
Evidence of weekend activity -- lots of spent ammo, a few old appliances used for target practice and some random burn piles indicate that Friday or Saturday nights might get a little rowdy. This might be best enjoyed mid-week unless that’s your thing.
Hiking, or mountain biking opportunities abound, as well as the nearby ruins of an old mining operation. While these structures are private property, the BLM two tracks and walking trails wind through the remains. Super cool to check out!
Thermopolis is the largest town in the region and offers all the services you’d expect, food, restaurants and even a natural food store. The downtown state park offers some really great hot springs for soaking. There are three different places offering multi-temperature pools and water slides for the kids. Great place to spend the afternoon and grab a shower. Cell phone service dropped out a few miles back down the road, but was available if you walked up to the south ridge.
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.

Trail exploration near Medicine Wheel: The northern Bighorns contain numerous hiking paths with Tie Flume trail located just a quarter mile from Tie Flume Campground. "I liked the tie Flume trail just a quarter mile down the road. Follow that road and go on a dirt road trip. Black Mountain fire tower is 10 miles down. Continue and get back to the main road," notes one visitor who found the location "centrally located to explore the northern Bighorns."
Wildlife observation: The region offers excellent wildlife viewing opportunities throughout the year. Visitors to Shell Creek Campground report, "Beautiful dear in the area. Chipmunks and birds too. Host said there are moose and coyotes in the area but we havnt seen any yet." Some campers have been fortunate: "We were lucky enough to have a momma and baby Mose right in the woods in the campgrounds."
Fishing in mountain streams: Several campgrounds provide direct stream access for fishing enthusiasts. "I did most of my fishing along the South Tongue River which is within walking distance from the campground," reports one angler who stayed at Tie Flume Campground and "really enjoyed making a big campfire and making smores! We also cooked some fish one night that I caught in the river."
Quiet mountain atmosphere: Many visitors appreciate the peaceful setting of dog friendly campgrounds near Greybull. At Porcupine Campground, campers enjoy "listening to birds and chilling out. Nearby are hiking and ATV trails, history in the form of remnants of an old flume used to transport logs from the surrounding forest, and both river and lake fishing."
Stargazing opportunities: The limited light pollution creates excellent night sky viewing. "It was very quiet at night. There is a highway to the north, but the hills block most of the noise," reports a visitor to Cody BLM Dispersed camping areas. Another notes the "vast long and wide grasslands valley and a humongous 360 degree sky view."
Stream-side camping: Access to running water enhances many camping experiences. "Great NFS campground. Nice travel sites, pretty level. Amazing creek behind the majority of the sites," writes one visitor about Shell Creek Campground. Others mention "We stayed right near the stream, which was beautiful" and "The creek is mesmerizing and loved falling asleep next to it."
Limited services: Most forest service and BLM sites lack amenities. "No water or any other amenities so pack in and pack out," warns a camper about Cody BLM Dispersed areas. For Tie Flume Campground, visitors advise: "Be aware that you will have to arrive with water in your tank if you are in an RV. The hand pumps at the campground do not allow you to attach a hose."
Cell service variability: Connectivity differs significantly by location. "There is NO cell service within 18 miles of the campground. Additionally, there is no grocery store or even stocked service station within miles as well. Come prepared with what you need for your entire stay," notes a Tie Flume visitor, while Cody BLM areas reportedly have "very good phone reception."
Weather considerations: Mountain conditions change rapidly year-round. "This campground might be OK in the heat of summer since it sits at 9100', but it's very windy and cold any other time," reports a visitor to Bald Mountain Campground. Another adds, "It was windy and even for late July it was 45° at night."
Select shaded sites: Summer heat requires protection, especially with children. Shell Campground visitors appreciate that "there are cabins and yurts. Host is very friendly and helpful." One family noted their experience at Greybull KOA Holiday: "This campground has cabins, full hook-ups(pull-thru, back-in sites) water-electric sites, long-term sites, and tent sites."
Choose campgrounds with amenities: Facilities matter for longer family stays. "My 4 yo son loved the pool and the playground. My 12 daughter loved the WiFi and extra clean showers and bathrooms. The laundry room was immaculate," writes one parent about their experience at pet friendly Greybull accommodations.
Consider noise factors: Sound sensitivity varies for children and pets. One camper noted about Tie Flume Campground: "It's centrally located to explore the northern Bighorns." However, others warn about noise issues elsewhere: "The only negative thing is the noise of the trains through the night."
Dump station locations: Plan for waste disposal before arrival. For Tie Flume Campground, "The Burgess Junction dump station is great and you can fill water tanks there on your way in and dump on your way out." Another camper notes that for Shell Creek: "No electric or RV dump here you must go to Burgess station to dump. (No posted price/donations appreciated)."
Site selection for larger vehicles: Some areas accommodate bigger rigs better than others. "We're in 15 with plenty of space to not have to unhook our 26 foot trailer," reports a visitor to Shell Creek Campground. For Cody BLM areas, "The road is rough in just a couple of spots, but we saw vans and a large Class C make it up here no problem."
Solar considerations: For boondocking or dry camping, sun exposure matters. "There are several sites that are great for solar," notes a visitor about Tie Flume Campground. This is particularly important since most dispersed camping areas near Greybull lack hookups of any kind.
