Guide
Campsites are simple and flat and alongside the river, which is nice. The campground is adjacent to the road so there is some road noise, but the river drowns out a lot of that.
Lots of oak tree shade.
Nice fault, toilets, and clean sites
Guide
Beautiful spot by the lake. Large sites well away from neighbours. We visited after the end of the season and just paid on entry.
Guide
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

We recently stayed at Crippled Spider Ranch, and it exceeded all my expectations. Nestled in the beautiful landscape near Thermopolis, Wyoming, this ranch offers a truly unique camping experience that caters to adventurers, families, and solo travelers alike.
Campsites & Amenities: The ranch has 71 spacious spots, including full and partial hookups for RVs, and plenty of space for dry camping. 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.
Staff & Hospitality: The hospitality here is second to none! The staff are friendly, welcoming, and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is enjoyable. 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.
Sustainability & Eco-Friendly Focus: Crippled Spider Ranch also takes pride in its sustainable practices, from responsible livestock management to preserving the surrounding wilderness. This ranch is a great choice for eco-conscious travelers who want to enjoy nature responsibly.
Overall Experience: Crippled Spider Ranch is the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and Wyoming charm. Whether you’re a family looking for a weekend getaway or a solo adventurer seeking peace and quiet in the great outdoors, this place is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back for more!
Tip: Be sure to book early for special events, and don’t forget to check out the nearby mineral hot springs in Thermopolis!
TravelerNice, 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.
Traveler
Free spot to stay so can’t complain. Bring some blocks if you want to be level the sites are good for an rv under 27 feet. Pretty sunset. Slight hint of manure.
Ranger
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
ScoutMost 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
ScoutThis 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.
Traveler
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.
Traveler
Our site was amazing right by the river. Good hiking and mtb trails right nearby. Busy road with paving going on. Toilet was lesser well maintained.
Traveler
Great free camp site. You’re allowed to stay up to 3 days at a time and have toilets right next to the site. Super close to the city and wild iris climbing area
Guide
Good WiFi, very clean and well-kept up campground. You can tell they take pride in the campground.
TravelerFriendly owner, water, no restrooms.
Traveler
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.
Scout
Tucked back in a quiet neighborhood. Friendly, helpful office manager. Bathrooms were big, modern, and clean with separate shower rooms. 50 cents for 5 minutes per shower with plenty of hot water. Sites were level & easy to get into. Nothing fancy - just a good overnight spot.
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!

ScoutWe staying in Lander city park with many other travelers. The parking lot is large enough to maneuver a large rig. Nice walk to downtown.
Guide
Great soaking pool with extended hours. Camp host Willy was great. It is next to the highway and train tracks but that didn’t bother us because the pool was so enjoyable. Meet some great fellow campers there that come back every year. The town of Thermopolis is fun also.
GuideGreat alternative to Popo Agie state park just a mile up the road. We have a 24 ft class C and there were multiple sites that accommodated us. 2 trail heads in the campground and a bridge over the waterway, which is accessible.
Guide
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.
Guide
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.
TravelerIs 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
ScoutIf 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.
Guide
This is one of my favorite campgrounds. You are right on the water! The spots are small, larger campers and some medium campers could have a hard time getting situated.
ScoutWe 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.
Traveler
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
