"I don't say it lightly, but... full disclosure, I'm from Lander originally. Camping here is like coming home, and you can't beat the fishing. Be sure to hike to The Falls!"
"Great place close to many very cool sites and activities! Amazing limestone climbing, although I prefer the Wild Iris crag. Fishing the Popo Agie is challenging but rewarding!"
$35 - $55 / night
"This was the perfect place to stay for the Lander area, especially if you plan to access the Wind River Range in Pinedale. "
"This RV Park and campground is about a mile outside of Lander Wyoming. The town is small but has wonderful small town charm. The campground is fairly large but the sites are close together."
"For Wyoming residents, cost is only $6.00 a vehicle. Not per site. It is $11 if you are from out of state which is still more reasonable than the surrounding forest service campgrounds."
"I looked for national forest land that would take me around. Sinks Canyon State Park was perfectly placed so we headed here."
"Peaceful lakeside spot – stayed here for one night while passing through the area. Loved the sunrise over the lake and the privacy of the sites."
"We would make the drive up anytime to stay here… bring the kayak the lake is amazing"
$10 - $17 / night
"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."
"This campground is located just inside the border of Sinks Canyon State Park, only 6 miles from the town of Lander.
This campground has a large group area with a very nice playground for the kids."
"Louis Lake is beautiful. There are some rustic cabins just next to it that you can rent out."
"Lois Lake is a great place to camp if it is not a major holiday. I have been here twice. The first time, there were very few people in the campground, so it was wonderful!"
$105 - $175 / night
"We're excited to have this campground on the Dyrt and ready for you to book, check them out and make sure to leave a review!"
"The GPS location takes you to a mostly flat lot with a view of the lake. Other reviews say the water is poisoned, but I saw no signs indicating this and people were in the water."
"It feels both safe and secluded at the same time. Pretty buggy, but hearing crickets ducks, and loons outside your tent is amazing. A little bit of trash around."
$25 - $62 / night
"Our site us full hookups but it appears some are electric only. Lots of nice green grass and big trees. Sites are very level!"
"We are full-timers in a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow and needed a place to dump, do laundry and take on fresh water after a week of boondocking outside of Rawlins and this place fit the"

RangerWe stayed at site 27. Picked it for its proximity to the river, though I didn’t realize it also had such a close proximity to the highway. Our site was a parking spot. This was stressful because we have 3 young kiddos.
The site was paved, but not level. Our plastic levelers kept sliding on the pavement when we went to drive onto them. Very frustrating after an 8 hour drive.
All that being said, we were only about 15 mins from lander. The sound of the river was beautiful and the views were incredible.
LegendGreat place close to many very cool sites and activities! Amazing limestone climbing, although I prefer the Wild Iris crag. Fishing the Popo Agie is challenging but rewarding! The hike into the Popo Agie Falls is worth seeing!
Cost is $15/night. Camp has pit toilets, pottable water and level sites. Each site has a fire pit, table and grill with grate. Dumpster available and bear proof storage is available in each site which is a bonus! The camp close to Lander in the state park is superior to this campground. But this is nice with average amenities.
GuideThis was the perfect place to stay for the Lander area, especially if you plan to access the Wind River Range in Pinedale.
OVERALL: Great customer service and handled our reservation over the phone- easy to work with and accommodating. Reasonably priced and used Good Sam discount. Laundry is$2.50/wash and$1.75/dry and the units were very good. They cleaned our clothes well, where most RV parks the washers are not good. It was super windy at times in the afternoon. We even lost power for a few hours one evening because of the wind gusts, but it wasn't too dusty so we could keep our windows open some of the time to let fresh air in.
SITE: Gravel roads throughout the park. Turns just a little narrow, but completely manageable- you just have to pay attention. There wasn't a lot of campground scenery at our site, but you can capture beautiful sunsets at the top of the hill at the park. Our site was almost level, we just needed one link on the left side. Lots of shade, along with a nice picnic table and fire pit(although no fires allowed right now).
WIFI: Works pretty well for campground wifi. Video calls and streaming were spotty and unreliable, but everything else worked just fine. We also switched over to our AT&T phone hotspot to help with internet speed at times during the work day.
NEARBY: There is a gas station right across the street. There is a Safeway or Mr. D's just a few miles down the road. Restaurants, bar and ice cream just a walk away downtown, along with a few cute shops- Dulce Ice Cream; Lander Bar, Cowfish and The Middle Fork(to name a few). They have gluten free options as well!
GuidePeaceful lakeside spot – stayed here for one night while passing through the area. Loved the sunrise over the lake and the privacy of the sites. Quiet place to camp, even though there were a lot of groups there when we arrived, we had no trouble finding a spot. Pit toilet on-site and walking trails around the lake are close by.

TravelerReservation 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
LegendThey have recycling!! This is the first campground I've stayed at that had recycling bins!
For Wyoming residents, cost is only $6.00 a vehicle. Not per site. It is $11 if you are from out of state which is still more reasonable than the surrounding forest service campgrounds. What a bargain!
This campground is very clean and in a beautiful setting with big limestone cliffs on one side and the Popo Agie river and forests on the other. The Sinks of the Popo Agie isn't far from camp, about a mile and the Visitors Center is located there.The rise is about another half mile away and has the biggest trout I've ever seen! The climbing in the area is spectacular! There are hiking trails galore in the state park and in the Shoshone National Forest.
It is my experience that state parks have the cleanest campgrounds! They clean the ashes out of each fire pit between each new camper. The pits toilets are stocked and maintained.
They have 3 yurts you can rent! Cost is $40 plus the $6/11 state park fee. Reservations can be made at www. Sinkscanyonstatepark.org
there is a very cool suspension bridge crossing the Popo Agie that takes you to a hiking/mountain biking loop in the forest.
Such a cool place! Check it out!
ScoutThis 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!
