    Oil Road to the Mines Dispersed Site

    All alone

    This is our first true boondocking experience and we were hesitant about pulling off into the middle of nowhere but WOW, what a nice surprise. This spot is approximately 2 miles off main road and I can’t hear any of the traffic. There appears to be some other campers down the road another 1/2 mile but we chose to stay at this location. Hopefully there is no issues overnight and this will be as good as I think.

    Dam Camp

    Solitude with Signal

    A&M Wildlife Project site.

    The site has decent LTE on T-Mobile, and is very unused. I counted two prepped fire rings for dispersed.

    The road up us very bumpy and makes the drive feel longer than it is, but there is plenty of wildlife to see on the way.

    Watch out and make sure you don't park on holes and block critters from coming out.

    Twin Pines RV Park and Campground

    Nice Little Campground Lovely Area

    Camp host Annette kindly waited for us as we arrived nearly an hour past her usual leave time. (Campers may arrive after hours and pick up registration packet at the front door alao.) We had a good pullthrough site out of 12 total RV spots. There are also cabins, playground, bathrooms with showers, and laundry. Neat host building with lots of wild animal heads! Full hookups. Pleasant stay.

    Atlantic City Campground — Bureau Of Land Management

    This is Coach, the Host for the past two years. RATE INCREASE!

    Just wanted to let everyone know that the price is going up to $20 a night due to inflation, contracts for trash pickup, vault toilet pump outs, cleaning and trash disposal.  If you have the "America the Beautiful" Pass or another one that gives you 50 percent off BLM, use it!  You can stay in the park for 14 days out of 30.  Most regular campers go to Louis Lake or disperse camp then come back to Atlantic City CG or Big Atlantic Gulch CG.  I host at both.  There are improvements coming but I haven't been given the timeline yet.  Hope to see you all and we will open for the Memorial Day weekend.

    Cottonwood Campground Wyoming

    Beautiful, quiet, and remote. Loved the small bubbling creek.

    This is one of the most amazing campsites I've stayed at. The bubbling creek is so peaceful to be around. It's small enough that you can find places to cross over. So much fun. The campground is spread out along a straight dirt road. Most of the sites have a lot of privacy, and some of them are so far apart it feels like you are the only person in the park. The hike back to the registration station from my site (17) took almost 10 minutes! But there are vault toilets spread throughout, and they are immaculate. The drive in was about 20 minutes of gravel. The views from the road are awesome. It is washboarded in some spots. It shook things loose in my RV that had never come loose before. But it was worth the trouble.

    There is no cell service at this campground.

    Cottonwood Campground Wyoming

    worth the drive

    The site is somewhat remote with a 10(+) mile drive along a rough gravel road.  Once you get into the treeline it's becomes very scenic especially in the fall with the Aspens turning colors.  Great campsites with tables and fire rings set along a mountain stream.

    Great campground

    Very nice small FCFS campground. Clean pit toilets, water (can attach hose to fill tank). Quiet spot, good spacing between sites. Host was great - took good care and offered great suggestions on things to do in the area
