Guernsey State Park Campground permits pets throughout its extensive camping network, with options ranging from lakeside tent sites to comfortable yurts. The park features multiple camping areas including Sandy Beach, Skyline Drive, and specialty accommodations like the four rentable yurts for $40/night that welcome pets. Sites are generally well-spaced with varying levels of shade and privacy, particularly at Sandy Point loop where campsites are nicely spread around the water with partial tree cover. The park maintains clean restroom facilities with a single shower house that operates on a pay-per-use system ($1 for 4 minutes). Dogs must remain leashed in all areas of the park and are not permitted on designated beach swimming areas, with rangers regularly patrolling to enforce these rules.
Grayrocks Reservoir Public Access Area offers dispersed camping with pets in a more primitive setting for visitors seeking fewer restrictions. Campers report having secluded spots with private beach access despite other campers being visible in the distance. Weather conditions can change dramatically at these campgrounds—temperatures at Guernsey State Park have been known to swing from 80°F to 35°F within 24 hours, requiring adequate pet shelter preparation. The region provides excellent opportunities for historical exploration with pets, as multiple campgrounds serve as convenient base camps for visiting nearby Oregon Trail Ruts, Register Cliff, and Fort Laramie National Historic Site. Larson Park Campground in Guernsey provides a quieter alternative with 15 RV sites featuring water and electric hookups adjacent to a golf course, offering a good fishing spot and grassy areas suitable for exercising pets.

Nice view bad access roads
Although the sites are nice getting to them could be a problem. Alot of the access roads to the sites are washed out. Some you can get around driving onto the grass. I use tmobile and cell service was spotty.

great overland spot close to north platte river on state of Wyoming land trust. labeled horseshoe ranch.stay to the right and you’ll be fine. ise of onX for property lines advised. 100% primitive zero hooks ups do not advise two wheel drives
You can’t camp there
There is a sign at the entrance that states no overnight camping. And if you do decide to camp, there is a railroad by the river that have trains quite frequently.

Pioneer Park
Beautiful camping Next to the Park
First come, First Serve. $25/night. Level pads and easy to back into. Creek running behind the campground. Public Internet is available. There is a train nearby, but the whistle is not too loud. Would stay here again.
Hillary F.GuideLower Spotted Tail — Guernsey State Park
Beautiful views
Clean and comfortable for dry camping. It doesn’t have any restroom but it does have a water outlet. Blue skies and birds all around. It’s a pay at the kiosk and charges higher for out of state visitors.

Riverside City Park
Closed for Grant Road construction for awhile
It's our first night in Douglas, Wy. We planned to stay here, but found significant road construction blocking the south part of the road. The park is closed (apparently there's signage somewhere about that). This is Sept 22, 2026.
Otherwise it looks like a great stop.

RangerSandy Beach Dune and Willow — Glendo State Park
We loved it!
We stayed one night at a power plug in as a treat and then moved to the no reservation area for a week or so closer to the water and had a wonderful time. Super soft sandy roads coming into the camp sites so had a few times getting our car stuck, probably not the best in that area for heavy rigs. The walk to the water is surprisingly long lol but lovely. The water was warm and pleasant during August. We had a wonderful time on the weekdays, weekends were a bit loud due to other campers. The Marina restaurant nearby is cute and everyone is really nice. Check out the nearby trail in the dam area. Trash on the way out which is great. Self serve pay.

Larson Park Campground
Different kind of campground
Was weird camping by a golf course, small cute, clean area. Had electrical and water, no dump station. Nice dog park across the pond/creek/river and access to a trail system that took you to historical sites in the area.
Could not book online need to go into golf house to reserve a site. They will give you a sticker/paper to put on your camper. Glue did not come off when peeled the paper off the camper.
