Owners keep Very clean and well maintained rv park with full hookups. Most sites are shaded. Good Wi-Fi and cell service and laundry. Close to town and right off highway but quiet. Lots to see and do in the area.
LegendAugust 8-14, 2019 Our truck slowed to a crawl in the middle of nowhere. We were blessed by having the Sherriff stop and advise us to go back to Worland rather than going forward into a very challenging ride through the mountains. We creeped back to Worland and were stunned by how friendly and helpful everyone was. We ended up at the Worland RV Park and Campground where the customer service was off the charts. The park was VERY clean. Site 6 had water, electric and sewer. They have a dump station, showers, flush toilets and laundry room. In the office, they have RV supplies and home made quilts, etc. We will be forever grateful for their great customer service. Verizon 4G and wifi with a good signal. Elevation 4,076 ft. They can accommodate all size RVs. TDC Diesel did a great job repairing our truck. See more details in RV Camping Journal.

We stayed at the Circle Park Camp for two nights on our western US tour last summer. The site is about 20 miles west of Buffalo WY off Highway 16. You take circle park road north and the campsites are in and along the tree lines. We opted for a beautiful open site between to wooded areas. The pictures don’t do it justice. It is an incredible site. The road going in is gravel and dirt with some rough areas. We observed deer and elk in the area which is popular with local hunters. The site does not have any facilities. So you need you need to pack everything into the site. The dispersed site has trailers, RVs, and vans. Some of the campers appear to be long term. The shear beauty of this spot makes it a good option for those who like dispersed camping and no camping fees. Not far from Cody WY which is a great place for fly fishing rods and tackle.

We pulled into this small town at 7pm needing a place to stop for the night and they helped us right away. They had a pull through spot with full hook up available for $34 for the night. We have a 38 ft fifth wheel and there is plenty of space. Their cabins look a little run down, but if you need a cheap, quiet, close to the interstate place to stay with your camper, this is a nice stop. Perfect cell service as well.

Facility Hosts are friendly and helpful. This is not really a campground but rather an RV parking area with all hookups available. It is located about 50 yards off of I-90 and traffic noise is pretty significant during the day but infrequent during late night. There are plenty of spaces in a large graveled lot and wide level spots. We called ahead 2 months before and made our reservation for our stay. We were able to pick our spot when we arrived. Hook-ups are good with water, electrical and sewer. They have 3 bathrooms at the facility, each with a shower. In addition there is a laundry room with a couple of washers and one dryer. Don't expect to set up a campfire and gather around since there is no fire ring available at any site. There are few trees for some shade in the late afternoon. Fortunately, it was a cloudy day and temps were cool while we stayed. There are no group sites at this facility.

Staff here is wonderful...friendly & helpful. Campground is cleaner than most, showers & bathrooms also were clean. Big Goose Creek runs alongside the campground, and downtown Sheridan is just a few miles away. But it's expensive (almost $60 for water/electric only), the campground is between the freeway and train tracks, & RV spaces are stacked together like sardines. But sometimes a night at a KOA is necessary, and the welcoming staff makes it bearable.
GuideThis is a great RV park with access to Worland and all it has to offer. If you’re in an RV it’s super convenient, very easy to find, and affordable with average size lots. Tenting wise, if you don’t have any other tent choices it’ll do, but tent sites- while cozy grass and intended to be private- were close together, between two busy lanes, somewhat distant from bathrooms/shower/laundry (which were all immaculate), and towards the front of property where highway traffic, train, and downtown noise were a factor. If you want space and quiet keep heading out of town an hour (nearly any direction) to make it to a USFS campground, but if you can’t Worland RV Park will be fine for an overnight stop. Staff was very friendly and all facilities, including WiFi, were secure also.
GuideOlder park that probably needs some updating, but nicest rv park in area. The other 2 are dirt parking lots. Lots of trees and greenery. The us here is the amazing staff. Couldnt be nicer or more accommodating! I mistakenly booked a site with water and power but NO sewer. This wasn’t going to work for us as we were there for 3 weeks. The staff worked their magic to get us into a full HU site.

This horse friendly RV park is right outside the Bighorn Mountains, which offers beautiful views (check out Crazy Woman Canyon!) and recreational opportunities. They have a small grassy spot for tents. Clean bathrooms with showers and 24 hour laundry are available. It is right in the little town of Tensleep with a couple restaurants/bars and evening entertainment (when I stayed on a weekend, there was live music playing right down the road). The owner was very nice and accommodating.

The Medicine Lodge Archaeological Site is maintained by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. I normally avoid campgrounds and prefer dispersed camping or backpacking, but I gladly camp here. Sites are well spaced out with Medicine Lodge Creek running through the campground. A walking/bike path goes end to end in the park following the creek. It does not have electrical hookups or dump stations for RVs. There are no shower facilities, but it does have vault toilets and drinking water. You can also buy firewood onsite as there is really nowhere to gather your own wood inside the park. You can go down the 4WD road at the north end of the park to Black Butte a bit and usually find your own firewood, however. All fires must be within the campsite fire rings.
The Medicine Lodge Archaeological Site is a perfect place to camp to explore the Bighorn Mountains, being relatively close to the Medicine Wheel and Shell Falls. If you enjoy craft beer, Tensleep Brewery -- located in a refurbished barn -- is located approximately 20 - 30 miles south in Tensleep.

This is a great campground if you're going to be out on the lake or hitting the off-road trails. Its literally a campground in the desert though there are some great views in the surrounding areas. The campground itself if nice if you don't mind that there aren't any trees. There are some permanent shades in select campgrounds. Some sites have full water and power hook-ups and there's a free dump station on your way out. The campground was clean! Some sites are very very basic and some sites are updated and well laid out with plenty of room. We went over 4th of July weekend with no reservations and there were still a handful of open sites available though the good ones that would fit a longer camper trailer were pretty much taken up. The camp hosts were super friendly. The campground sits about a 1/2 mile or so from the lake. The marina/boat dock has a tiny store and there is a great area for day use (bring mosquito spray!). If you're going up for off-roading be sure to print out some maps before hand as there are plenty of great trails and views in this area! The attached pics are from Devil's Canyon Lookout area and from up the canyon in a boat.

We picked the Lazy R for a quick overnight stay on trip to Missoula, MT. We weren't expecting much, given that we were tent campers staying in an RV park. However, we were pleasantly surprised we arrived to find a nice grassy campsite for a our tent and clean restrooms and showers. The following morning, we opted to skip making coffee and oatmeal for breakfast and instead visited the onsite bakery. Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Hard to beat rolling out of your tent, walking 100 feet and getting reasonably priced gourmet coffee and fresh baked pastries for breakfast. I will definitely stay here again.

It’s what you expect from KOA, clean level sites. Restrooms and showers were clean and except for some train noises, very quiet. A nice walking path along the Big Horn River.
Traveler
Only area open was non electric sites. Closed down for season but still has access to sites and vault toilets. -fairly level site,with grill and fire pit. -lots of pine trees.and squirrels to torment the dogs -lake very close Stocked with many kinds of trout. Didn’t fish but many people were fishing. -seemed to be used by hunters while we’re were there. -I walked through the sites that had electric and they seemed pretty large and spaced really nicely. Not to crowded together -lots of hiking area. -no fee since no services

We were hoping to camp at Sibley Lake campground but it was full. And so was the next one and the next one... Finally it was after dark and we pulled into Bear Lodge Resort. For just $17 they gave us a pull through site with full hookups and a fire ring. It was just what we needed. The next day as we were leaving they helpfully gave us a tip about a great local sightseeing stop at Shell Falls.
ScoutNice green spot in the middle of nowhere! Be aware: There is NO dumping for RVs!
GuideAsked for sot with grass for our dogs when we made reservations. Gave us a quiet pull thru site at the back which was perfect. Full hookup Gravel pad Grass Extremely friendly owners Highly recommmend if passing thru

We just arrived here and have fallen in love with this place. Cozy, super clean, especially the bathrooms! And it’s not just for RVs. There are cabins and yurts. Host is very friendly and helpful. Totally recommend!

***CAUTION*** Unless you are over the age of 60 or only here for 1-2 nights then I STRONGLY do NOT advise you stay here. Peter D is rude, genuinely does not like anyone under 60, and runs the campground like a military boot camp. I’m all for a clean, quiet, well kept campground and the campground is great itself. BUT Peter D ruins this campground. There is a list of rules but then there is a list of unwritten rules that is continually pulled from his head or“just because I like the way this looks better”. Everytime you turn around, it’s something else getting“talked about” or asked to do or not to do. From him throwing dog screw in the ground tie outs so far under the camper we were on hands and knees trying to get(that he said we were welcome to have in the grass), having no power all night in 40 degree weather and turning on our generator to keep warm but yet getting yelled at the next morning and being told“you have extra clothes, bundle up, it’s unnecessary when a breaker trips(however half campground had no power for 8-10 hours even after several calls to the office). Never place anything in his grass, don’t drive or have bikes in the grass and nearly impossible to pull a large Rv or camper out of the spots. If you go in the grass just know your a** is grass… He allows only select“friends and people” to back their vehicles into their site even if they are still driving the correct direction. Favoritism at its finest. Him complaining to campers about other campers is rude. Everything and all the signs is MY WASHERS, MY DRYERS, MY CAMPSITES, MY GRASS, MY ETC.. his poor wife.. Peter D on the first day/night will be super nice, offering you a“cold beer or drink”, giving your dog a treat, etc. but it’s all for show. Telling your campers,“I’ll help them find another campground” is beyond rude. There were a couple seasonal campers next to us and the insults he said about them to us was astonishing.. it’s only a wonder what he said about us. The amount of circles he will do in his truck to monitor what you are doing and how you are doing it is beyond annoying. He will stop, get out of his truck, just to ask why you are moving the picnic table,“why are you are eating outside when you have a big nice camper”. To give an example of his hate for children.. Our neighbors were staying for about a month, they were in their mid 40s with a 23yr old son. Almost everyday we would here from Peter D“this is a kid free park for long term guests, don’t understand what’s so hard about understanding that”. Always asking the poor couple when they are planning to leave, it’s kid free. Even after they would explain to him that the“kid” is 23yrs old. The response from him was“well he’s still being cared for and under your supervision so he’s a kid”. I could go on and on with the list of negatives about Peter D. But just be advised, if you are not over the age of 60 or only there for a night or two, DO NOT STAY HERE!! You will not enjoy it, you will be lectured for every move you make, every coming and going even if it’s just for dinner plans. And ever having a guest come to visit or stay with you in the park? Forget it! You will get 50 questions and every hour him circling asking when are they leaving, are they leaving soon, I don’t like having anyone else here, they have been here for an hour, are they leaving yet. Yet once again there are NO WRITTEN RULES FOR WHEN GUESTS HAVE TO BE OUT BY.. it’s a rule in his head. One of the many..The park is pretty, dog park isn’t bad, sites are VERY VERY tight when pulling in and out, he will tear you a new one if you make any marks in the grass. Make sure you have an extension for the sewer and water connect as it’s mid to more front of the camper, they were not designed and installed to be towards the back like all the other campgrounds. Your neighbors sewer pipe and tank will be right out your front door..He is very defensive and rude when attempting to bring anything to his attention. Again, I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PARK. You will not enjoy it if you are there for longer than a night or two or under the age of 60
GuideNice location for a quick overnight. Pads were level, sites easy to back into, 50 amp, water and dump all easy and functional.

Super level site with view of the lake! Huge sites with some incredible fishing to be had. Cleaning stations at each site and fairly quiet scene.
Scout
This is a great little camp ground with both RV camping and designated Tent Camping areas. the Campground is well maintained and with a creek running through. There a hike trails near by and easy access to fishing at Tie Hack reservoir. We try to go camp here at least once a year It is close to the main road, but insulated enough that you don't really hear the road noise. This fills up quick so reservations are a good idea.
GuideLevel sites. Nice staff. Good for overnight. Very small pull through sites with gravel only. Tiny dogpark. They advertise big open field were dogs can run off leash but as it is right off interstate I would not advise tbat.

This Forest Service campground might be OK in the heat of summer since it sits at 9100', but it's very windy and cold any other time. The sites are suitable for RVs and tents, and the toilets are clean, but there is the issue of the cows... Ranchers have grazing allotments in the Bighorns, which is fine, but you'd think the campground would have cattleguards to keep them out. When I was there, there were about a dozen wandering through the sites, and rubbing up against the pump and outhouses. I'd forget this campground and go to Porcupine, just down the road on the other side of HWY 14A.

Honestly, this campground is pretty awesome. I love Wyoming and all the great campgrounds and outdoor activities they have, but this campground is definitely one of my favorites. Tie Flume Campground is located in the Bighorn National Forest, with scenery and wildlife all around you. You can't beat that! There are also so many activities to do here. You can hike, fish, hang around your campfire, and they also have a few historical sites located nearby. When I stayed here, I did a lot of hiking and fishing. I did most of my fishing along the South Tongue River which is within walking distance from the campground. The campground itself is pretty clean and well kept. I'm not sure if they offer big sites for RVs, but we stayed in a single family site which came with a camp fire ring and a picnic table. My family and I really enjoyed making a big campfire and making smores! We also cooked some fish one night that I caught in the river. I hiked Lily Lake Trail which is part of the Cloud Peak Wilderness. Really enjoyed this hike, great scenery and awesome views during the hike and at the top. I would definitely recommend hiking at least one of the days of your stay. Great location, great campground, and great atmosphere!
LegendThis is, finally, a KOA that isn’t covered in gravel and dust! There is real, green grass! The sites are small, and tight, but there is grass. They have mostly RV sites, with some tent sites and small cabins. Electric and water, some with sewer. There is a small store, game room and pool. The shower would be better with a real door, not just curtains. They have a good size dog park, plus an extra area for dogs to run, unfenced.
