Best Campgrounds near Lander, WY

Great spot for a stop on your trip or as a base camp for exploring the area. Spaces are big and spread out. Everything was clean and well maintained,

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

Nice, clean, and quiet.  This campground is a high quality BLM site.  Spaced out well, in the pine trees.  Beats crowded, packed in gravel CG's any day.  The GPS coordinates  posted are wrong.  Use these instead.   42.305400 N   108432568 W   at 8,219 ft. elevation.  The camp host gave us things to do, and directions.  We didn't go to "Miners Delight", but did go to "Atlantic City", and "South Pass City".   Atlantic City has a walking tour map, that can be picked up on Main street near the Mercantile location.  It was fun to follow the map and see the sites.  South Pass City has a restored mining town section.  Very interesting to see.  It's more of a museum setting, vs the usual souvenir selling tourist trap.   Fun to explore and see how the miners lived back then.  Highly recommend.

Most of the sites are flooded the pit toilets are good not sure if they are holding back the water as it is controlled. Only spent one night as we had a very strong wind and did not crank up our top on our slide in camper

Stayed right at the lake for one night with my small RV. No hookups, but ok if self contained. Campspots are spread apart enough that running generators from other campers ( it was a hot day) weren’t to noisy.

Coordinates are accurate to site location. Getting into the first few spots the road is ok, getting down by the river it gets rough. We have a 4 wheel drive truck and it was easy for us. Area is small but no reservations needed. Beautiful views of the mountains and the river. It was very quiet.

Good WiFi, very clean and well-kept up campground. You can tell they take pride in the campground.

Nice free spot but mostly for RVs as there are lots of rocks/gravel. Spot to put in a boat too. They have picnic tables (most covered) and fire pits.

We didn't end up staying because it was too rocky for tent stakes and it was incredibly windy. The wind was everywhere though so not necessarily the location. We had heavy wind all day throughout our drive across NE and WY.

We found the spot on the west side by reading a previous review but there is another spot on the north side maybe.

We planned to stay for at least couple of nights but following morning after with beautiful sunshine, clouds gathered and viscus thunderstorm arrived from nowhere. Blowed our seat cushions away to nearby creek, which had pretty strong flow and current. It started to feel unsafe and we quickly packed and left. It was a shame as the site and location was very nice.

This campground has friendly and accomodating staff, nice bathrooms, laundry facilities, small camp store, water and sewer hookups, a small dog park and a splash pad to cool off! Spaces are all very level and a viriety of options including back in and pull thru and they can handle larger RVs as well. The owner/manager even gave us some local fishing tips and recommended a great place to have lunch in town. This is without a doubt the best campground in Lander and probably for miles around!

The town of Lander seems to have a little of everything in a friendly small town atmosphere.  I'll be back, maybe even move here someday!

Is a rather small but clean and tidy facility. Tent sites are small but fairly level. Liked that they had individual bathrooms. Didn't like the proximity of the park to the highway which made it somewhat noisy in the early evening. Is very close to town of Lander

It’s a nice RV and overnight cannot tent spot before you get to Jackson or Yellowstone. Showers and clean bathrooms

Quiet site in the Pinedale area, so that's a positive. It's also by a creek, so you have fishing and water. This area is used for fishing, hunting, trapping, camping, hiking, and wildlife viewing.

It’s a rough drive in down the last road. I recommend high clearance, 4WD even better. The main road in is improved gravel and easy, but there are hairpin turns on the hill, so I don't recommend long rigs or long 5th wheels. I went in with a regular clearance front wheel drive, but it was dicey.

We arrived super late at 10pm. And they have maps in the front office where you can see availability. The place is very cozy and clean. It has a great view and a little stream of water, dog area, playground, and store. It's 3 minutes from the town where you have plenty of restaurants.

Reservation is mandatory in summer. Spot 25, 26, 27 and 28 are directly next to the playground. Waterpump available, non-flush-toilets, no running water. Every space has a parking spot, tent spot, fire ring and picnic table. Costs: $28 for a night as non-resident

Nothing bad with to say about this place. Highly recommend staying here.

We had a spot that backs up to river and you could hear the sounds the entire night = heaven. We even had a little trail that goes down to your own little spring.

Everyone was super friendly and though no showers and fancy bathrooms, everything was clean.

We hiked in the morning and the views were to die for and the trail was a nice way to get heart pumping!!! Dogs allowed on trails and they have bags for you to clean up after them I highly recommend and we will be back!!!
