    Grave Springs Campground

    Secluded Primitive BLM Campground

    Free. Camped here one night in early September 2024. Except for the views, there is nothing remarkable about this primitive BLM campground. This is a good overnight stopover for those driving on the beautiful South Bighorn/Red Wall Back Country Byway. It appears that the campsites have not seen maintenance in a while. The his/hers vault toilet was okay and supplied. I did not see any trash receptacles; cleaned up the mess left behind by previous campers. No cell service in this remote region. There are no established hiking trails, although one can explore a few of the tracks in the vicinity.  Stayed at the site just past the vault toilets. Dirt surface; can get muddy. Not exactly level but close enough for my campervan. Unless you area hunter, I don't consider this to be a destination. However, the journey along the byway makes it worth while to camp here. The byway was in great shape; no issues for my AWD van.

    Gebo Road - Thermopolis

    Remote, Historical, a little eerie!

    We camped here in early October. The skeletal remains of the buildings were on private property, however the roads and such were on BLM land so we parked right across from the buildings and set up the Truck Camper. There’s a plaque that explains the history of the town up the road from the buildings, and just beyond that a ways is the cemetery. It was sad to see all the graves as they were children and infants who died from the Spanish Flu or Diptheria. One gentleman we ran in to said the town wasn’t merely bulldozed but also buried! We had fun walking around and camping there for the night. There were no sounds! It was VERY quiet! No birds, crickets, insects, or wildlife. Just the gentle breeze, and one lone coyote at about 2 am.

    There are no toilets or water, so prepare accordingly.

    There was also a burn ban in effect so we used our portable camping stove. Make sure to check burn bans before you camp! We had so much fun, and hope other people visit too. Please be respectful of this historical relic so it can be around for as long as it can! Don’t damage your History!

    Definitely recommend 4 wheel drive to traverse this area. The roads are rocky, rutted, and worn down!

The sites are well-maintained, and the full hookups provide everything you need for a comfortable stay. For those looking for an extended stay, they even offer 15% off for bookings over 7 days!

    Activities & Attractions: One of the best parts of Crippled Spider Ranch is the variety of activities on-site and nearby. There’s something for everyone—whether it’s hiking on the BLM land that borders the property, petting zoo visits for the kids, or even learning to ranch and milk cows! The property is also a great base for rock hounding and exploring Wyoming’s natural beauty. You can even hunt (seasonal) or target shoot, making it perfect for outdoor enthusiasts.

    For those interested in history, the ranch is near the historic Oregon Trail, and there are great opportunities for treasure hunters like metal detecting and exploring old ghost towns.

You’ll feel like family from the moment you arrive. They even offer fresh, free-range eggs from their chickens and have a fun “catch-and-cook” option if you’re into farm-to-table experiences.

    Upper Wind River Campground — Boysen State Park

    Convenient for 1 night if you're traveling or fishing, otherwise no.

    Booked what looked like a decent site by the river and found it to be unusable when we arrived. I was considering just occupying a different site since the place was nearly empty. Thankfully a sheriff's vehicle was driving thru (which I mistook for a park ranger). He told me he'd try to help us get a different spot by calling the park office but on realizing that he had no cell service, he volunteered to drive to the office to see what he could get done for us. He returned after a short while with instructions for us to camp in an empty pull-through spot. We were very thankful for his help.

    The good-

    Beautiful canyon!!

    Shade from big cottonwoods (it was 97 degrees!)

    Some sites well spaced

    Vault toilet was clean and supplied

    There's good fishing there for big trout but unfortunately I was fishing this time around

    The bad-

    No cell or WIFI

    A lot of strangely laid out sites, some ridiculously close to one another and unlevel 

    Sprinklers in some areas that sprinkle your site, tent or whatever's exposed

    Highway noise is bad - in a canyon sound bounces off the walls, many trucks on the road with much use of jake brakes and to top it all off, the occasional 2AM freight train rolling by on the other side of the river

    If the water was lower I can see where it wouldn be a great place

    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

    Quiet and Easy for a Van

    This was a cute little spot! We arrived early evening on a Thursday and it was empty. Good lake access and view of sunset. The GPS location from the app takes you to 4 spots, one ADA, but there are a couple more around the lake. Well maintained pit toilet. The two spots closest to the lake were flooded so watch out for that. Good service for Verizon. Make sure your GPS is taking Bass Lake Rd in from 26. Ours found a "shortcut" down the gravel ranching roads. Not sure why the info here says showers and hook ups, we did not see that. Not sure a tent camper would enjoy this spot.

    Nice and clean spot by the lake

    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.

    beautiful for RVs, windy for us in a tent with rocky ground

    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.

    Boondocking for a fee

    Basic sites, both drive through and back in, as well as several tent sites. Each site has picnic table and fire pit. Essentially just boondocking for $32.25 a night. Pay station takes credit cards. On the plus side, it is next to a lake and the surrounding scenery (sagebrush country) is nice, like many BLM areas. Good Verizon connectivity.

    Wyoming Gardens RV Park

    Overnight Only

    We stayed here 3 nights in our RV and rented a cabin RV for family. I will start with the rental RV. It is pretty run down with no heat, hot water for a two minute shower and a wobbly toilet. Definitely disappointing fir $85 a night. While the showers and restrooms are dated they were clean and worked well. At one point the manager was going to have a very large bus RV with slide outs next to us which would have blocked our table and grassy area. The manager said we could just sit in the front of our camp. Well after a bit of discussion he moved them to a larger slot. We were not bothered by the road noise. There are a few full time residents who were very nice. I would recommend Eagle RV down the road if you can otherwise this is good for a quick stop.

    Remote dispersed camping

    Was the only person there when I stayed on a Sunday night. Rough road to get out there, but my Rav4 with no 4WD made it. Will be on your right with some wooden posts around the gravel area. Felt very remote which made me a little nervous as a solo female traveler, but would be a great spot with others or as a confident solo camper.

    Fountain of Youth RV PARK

    If you want Cleanliness, organization of the camp, functionality of facilities, availability of staff, provisions for toilet facilities, upkeep of grounds THEN THIS IS NOT THE PLACE THAT YOU WANT TO SPEND YOUR MONEY. THE TOILETS WERE FILTHY , THERE WAS NO TOILET PAPER, THE TOILET LEAKED AT ITS BASE AFTER FLUSHING, THE GROUNDS WERE UNKEPT, OF THE FOUR LAUNDROMAT NONE FUNCTIONED . TWO OF THE FOUR SHOWERS AVAILABLE WERE IN OPERABLE, AND THE OTHERS WERE FILTHY. I had booked for two nights, but I went to the office at 10 AM and no one was there. I came back later in the afternoon and requested a cancellation of the second night, and I explained why I was leaving. I do give them credit for giving me a refund. 

    It is unfortunate that this park is in such a state of disarray as its location and pool facilities made for a an attractive setting. Due to the overall filthiness of the facilities, I did not bother to swim in the two pools that were there. I could not recommend this facility for Camping.

    Ocean Lake

    Total surprise!

    I was not expecting much. I was in a rush, on the road, and just trying to get settled. I was expecting a flattened patch of grass. At first, that's exactly what I saw: a bathroom that looked like maybe it had a vault toilet, and a couple of campers in makeshift spots. I didn't want to be too close, so I figured I would see where the road led. I'm so glad I kept going! I couldn't believe my eyes when we ended up with what looked like an ocean view. Each spot had a building with a picnic table and a grill. It was very peaceful. We had the place to ourselves until some others rolled in around midnight. There were signs up saying that the algae in the water could be toxic (the sign was posted on the bathrooms, not near the boat launch, so I'm lucky I saw it when I did). My boys were disappointed to not be able to swim, but I didn't want to risk them getting sick on our trip. I'm assuming the algae is what makes this water the beautiful color it is, and I'm guessing the heat of summer makes it bloom to toxic levels. There are no garbage, so pack out. Watch for cows when entering and leaving, they are wandering across the road.

    Upper Wind River Campground — Boysen State Park

    too many signs!

    I had reserved site 54 through recreation.gov but at the time I thought it odd the site would not let me put in my rig size.  So I just went with it.  Mistake.  My 30 footer wouldn't begin to fit since the pull off the road is shared between 54 and 55.  I've never seen a CG where a pull through is split into 2-3 'sites'.  So I drove around the park (which was mostly empty) and in spite of the giant signs screaming RESERVATIONS REQUIRED MAY 1-SEPT 30, I parked in very large site 71 which had midday sun for my solar and some shade in the late afternoon.  Did the kiosk sign in thing and no one has bothered to check me out.  The signage here is ridiculous, even in the bathrooms - lists of fines for everything!  I guess they've had to put up with stupid, rude and inconsiderate people.  Sad.  No dump station (there's one at park HQ down the road south) but there are several water hydrants through the park.  Mosquitoes were quite annoying along with a plethora of nonbiting flying critters my dogs enjoyed hunting.  The Wind River runs along the park with a railroad on the other side.  The 2x trains a day were NOT that loud and were gone in about 3 minutes.  Road noise from the highway is moderate but most city folk won't notice it.  Fishing isn't much fun because the river bank is steep with only 3-4 sets of stairs to the water.  The birds, however, are numerous and very happy to be here.  Had a momma turkey and 8 fledglings walk up to and under my trailer!   I would stay here again but at a cooler time of year.  The frequent breezes ameliorated the heat to a survivable level.  No T Mobile here at all.

    The owners go out of their way to make your stay as nice as possible. I was requested by my Dr. to get a chest xray and needed add an additional day to my stay, the staff did everything possible to make this happen. I can't thank them enough to make my stay here great.

    Great place to relax for a couple days

    We went in the winter so traffic was super low. Mostly just us at the park so we got the 2 giant hot spring pools to ourselves. Soak in mineral rich waters up to 110 degrees in some areas. Full hookups, but no water in the winter due to frozen lines.

    Cheap Views

    This is a fairly cheap place to stay for a night.

    The mornings are amazing as the sun hits the mountain just spectacularly.

    Firewood is free and the showers cost around $5

    This is one of many places you can stay on this road but just a few miles west to toward Yellowstone is an indian reservation. Not too many places to stop there.

    There is a dump station and some spots have just electric or just water. I think the spots with both may cost more. but it’s $10 a night for just one without the other. Tent sites are the same.

    I would have liked to stay more than one night so we could have experienced more of this beautiful area!

    We are all about primitive camping but this one was a must see.

    Never returning

    We stayed in site 51, we tried to get site 53 but it said it was already reserved, turned out it wasn't. Some things are out od the parks control, rhe trains foe instance that sound like they are coming through your tent. Traffic is horrid and goes on moat od the night. But these two sites have a much bigger problem that the park can do something about. There is a giant light that makes it like noon at the dead of night, all night long! The only thing the light is good for is the bugs, which there are so many bugs, go to the light when it comes on. The bugs weren't of the biting type, most anyway, they just liked to fly into your face. Then there were the wasps. My son got stung and the neighboring site also got stung, all in a 20 minute span. They were everywhere. Even worse, shortly after 9 am on Monday, sprinklers came on! In the sites, 51 was OK, possibly due to a plugged sprinkler but site 53 was soaked. Their tent, their chairs, their concrete picnic table where they were cooking breakfast! Quite hours are not really enforced, leashed dogs aren't always enforced. They do have a giant list of fines for breaking rules but I don't see enforcement. We did visit the lake and didn't see a lot there that would have been better. We won't return to this campground though.

    Great sites right on the water

    I was lucky to find one of the sites that did not require a reservation available (only 2 tent sites are available this way). There is no reception here so quickly making an online reservation is not an option.

    This campground has spacious sites for tents. I stayed on one of the sites on the ledge just above the water. The toilets are clean and the campground host is a great guy.

    At 32.25 dollars it is definitely not the cheapest state park, but the location makes it worth it.

    Would recommend

    Fountain of Youth RV Park

    Great spot, but not fancy

    Fountain of youth RV park definitely has its charm, but also could use some amenity upgrades.

    Pros:

    Huge hot spring pools open daily from 7am- 9:30 pm. Lots of space and can use floaties even kayaks on the pools. Free use of staying here. Cleaned pools one of the days we were here. Awesome to use at night under the stars.

    The views from the pools are gorgeous.

    Sites have enough space from one another and full hookups. The owner is really amenable and lets you choose your site.. this is great if you’re looking for more shade or space from neighbors.

    There is laundry, showers, and toilets available for use.

    Location is awesome—right near the state park, close to the dinosaur center, grocery store is less than a 10 min drive, lots of water activities close by (we went kayaking)

    WiFi worked very well the entire time!

    Cons:

    The owner is definitely nice but runs the establishment by himself and therefore is hard to get a hold of initially and is very busy.

    The showers are coin operated. So you have to pay one quarter for 2 1/2 minutes of showering. You can also hop over to the hot springs state park for a free soak in the bathhouse and free shower afterward!

    The amenities themselves aren’t anything to write home about—laundry is fine, toilets are not amazing, nor are the showers—but everything works and there’s hot water!

    Close to the road and a railroad so you can hear sounds of traffic, but it’s not crazy disruptive. Nothing earplugs can’t solve.

    No Verizon or ATT service at the site.

    Ultimately, I think the hot spring pools and location are well worth the $$ and loved my stay.

    Hot Spring Pools

    Open camp-sites (very little shade).  Water, sewer, and electric hook-ups available.  Flush toilets and coin operated showers.  Garbage bins. The hot spring fountain and pools were amazing!!!  Thermopolis was a friendly community with lots of fun things to do!  We took in the dinosaur museum, and it was great!  We were there in the middle of the week, and there were quite a few sites available.

    We suggest you take in the Scenic Byway through Wind River Canyon just South of Thermopolis - it's amazing!

    Jim Moss Arena Camping

    Quiet and beautiful ranch

    This is an amazing property. We stayed one night along the back fence. There were a few open sites all with 30 amp, and two with 50 amp. There was water next to the electric and a dump station on the way out. The owners invited us up onto the porch of the house where we also met the caretaker and other campers.

    It is 20 minutes outside Riverton, WY for any fuel, groceries, food etc.
