Best Glamping near Shoshoni, WY

Sinks Canyon State Park offers some of Wyoming's most distinctive glamping options with canvas accommodations and yurts situated between Lander and Shoshoni. The park's glamping sites feature picnic tables, drinking water, and trash service while maintaining a natural setting perfect for immersing in Wyoming's scenic landscapes. Boysen State Park's Upper Wind River Campground provides additional glamping sites with covered picnic shelters and access to the Wind River for fishing enthusiasts. Both locations accommodate glamping structures while preserving the rustic outdoor experience many luxury campers seek. Ocean Lake's glamping options include sheltered sites with panoramic water views that make it feel "like an ocean view" with whitecaps visible from comfortable accommodations. According to a camper, "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."

Activities near these glamping locations focus on water recreation and wildlife viewing. The Wind River tail waters at Boysen offer what one reviewer called "spectacular" fly fishing opportunities, with launch sites available for boat access to premium fishing spots. Safari tent and yurt visitors at Sinks Canyon can enjoy hiking trails and stargazing, with the advantage of being operational from May through October. Ocean Lake provides glamping guests with opportunities to witness "jumping fish" and abundant birdwatching where "seagulls fly over like at the ocean." Glamping resorts around Thermopolis, just north of Shoshoni, provide easy access to the town's famous hot springs and dinosaur museum. A visitor noted, "We had the entire place to ourselves and when we woke up we fell in love with the place. The sunrise was incredible over the water and the camp area had vault toilets and even grills to cook at."

    Fountain of Youth RV Park

    Hot Springs

    $55 night, full hook ups: electric, water, and sewage. Pull thru sites. All sites come with picnic table and fire ring. Sites are level. Not very private. Not a lot of shady trees so camper can warm up even with AC. Dog friendly.

    Lovely big hot spring pool. it has different sections with different temps. They clean the pools bi-weekly so make sure to ask when reserving if its a cleaning week because you will lose pool time.

    Didnt have much luck with wifi. at&t was very week, verizon was good in the area.

    State park near by with more hot spring views and bison views. We did the spirit trail just over a mile.

    Beware the whole area smells like rotten eggs due to the sulfer in the springs. It can be nauseating.

    Eagle RV Park

    Reasonable for non-electric

    With the only RV park in town, I was skeptical of a price gouging. $30 for non-electric/ no water. Amazing! One partially shaded site was available - the clerk let us pick. Fire ring available to have a fire. Woman’s Bathroom is clean & quaintly updated with fresh paint & cheery shower curtain. Laundry facilities & outdoor washing area (could be used for getting water). Grassy dog area complete with poop bags, shovel & rake.

    Popo Agie Campground — Sinks Canyon State Park

    One of my favorites!

    They 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!

    Sinks Campground — Sinks Canyon State Park

    Climbing, fishing, hiking, Oh My!

    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! 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.

    Sleeping Bear RV Park & Campground

    Comfortable stay on the edge of downtown!

    This 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!

    Popo Agie Campground — Sinks Canyon State Park

    Riverside nooks in a state park adjoining national forest - a hiking and cl

    I was looking to avoid Yellowstone because I’m traveling with a dog. I looked for national forest land that would take me around. Sinks Canyon State Park was perfectly placed so we headed here. The visitor center was very helpful and pointed us to a few camping options. I asked which one the ranger preferred and he went to Popo Agie right away. 

    The campground is right on the road - 20 feet over and 20 down. However the road only goes to the state park and into national forest. The roar of the river (20 feet to the other side) masks the minimal vehicles. 

    Augie, the camp host, immediately waved me over. We talked about my teardrop and his bus conversion. He pointed to the last two spots with shade. One was taken so I took site 5. 

    The site is a straight paved line. There is a wood chip square for a tent. The fire pit and picnic table are on a gravel pad. Just beyond that is the river. What a wonderful sound to relax to!

    There is a group camp closer to town and another state park campground further down the road. Is those are full, national forest campgrounds are further on but the pavement ends. There are yurts interspersed with the campsites. Vault toilets and garbage/recycling bins are nearby. Water is down the entrance road in one central location. 

    Hiking trails start across the bridge in camp. You can also drive down the road and find more challenging routes. A playground is by the group site. 

    An interesting discovery is to see where the river sinks into the ground and then reappears a quarter mile down the mountain. Dye tests show it takes 2 hours to go the distance - leaving speculation as to what happens in between. The heat was in during the day - 97 in town and a few less in camp. It cools down to the 50’s overnight. The sites have diverse configurations. This is a great place - just get a site with some shade.

    Sinks Campground — Sinks Canyon State Park

    A gorgeous night on a river

    We tent camped here for one night. We had to park a little ways away from where our site was, but it was so sweet and tucked away next to the rushing river we loved it!

    The bathrooms are primitive but clean, though can be full of flies.

    It's a gorgeous place to pitch your tent.

    Popo Agie Campground — Sinks Canyon State Park

    Tight little campground.

    In the Sinks Canyon, this is a nice little campground wedged between the highway and the river and mountains. Campsites are small and close to each other, but level and clean. Each site has the usual picnic table, fire pit, and bear box; but the concerns were less about bears and more about moose. There are Yurts for rent here too. The family I met that had reserved one was really happy with their yurt. There are nice hiking trails on the other side of the river (moose warning signs and all), and some nice trails on the other side of the highway. I’d camp here again even though it is so close to the road because the river drowns out the highway noise. Be careful if you decide to dip your toes in the river; the flow is really fast!! Just down the road about a mile is the Sinks and the Rise, where the Popo Agie River disappears into a cave at the base of the mountain and then miraculously reappears gushing out of the base of a mountain on the other side of the canyon.
