Guide
The farm road that leads into this area was once paved and is now covered in gravel with a few ruts here and there but easily avoidable. Sites all the way down to the river edge many with rock fire rings. We were all by ourselves about halfway down - quiet and beautiful!
GuideNice spot but potentially a flood zone. Vault toilets at entrance. Dispersed camp but sites with fire pits. No benches.
Traveler
We absolutely loved this small cabin. it had a fenced area and plenty of room. bathroom was clean. Must bring your own toilet paper, water and mattresses but it's worth the hassle.
ScoutI brought my dog here and he swam and it was great. beautiful weather and tons of space. There’s some different turn offs of that main road for the beach. 100% come again
TravelerPerfect for a Friday night last minute spot! Lots of dirt bikes and generators. Also the bend in the road seems to have a lot of traffic.
Scenic with a nice spot to launch watercraft.
Guide
This is one of my favorite places on earth. They have tent sites, van sites and a selection of shelters to choose from. Camping gets you access to the hot springs from check in until 4pm the next day. There’s running water in the bathhouse with a toilet and shower. There’s yoga classes included in the price as well. The bathhouse also has a nice little shop with snacks and gifts. They sell tinfoil dinners too if you want to really relax. Highly recommend! They offer volunteer days as well where you can camp and soak in exchange for volunteer work.
GuideWe stayed for 7 days. We stayed in the parking lot area as the campground was blocked by the snow mountains.
There was no verizon signal at all where we stayed, but starlink worked well.
Plenty of snowmobiles coming everyday along with locals walking their dogs

Just outside of Etna WY. Back-ins and Pull throughs. The usual, full hook ups and WiFi. Park is surrounded by mountains. Very very scenic. Office staff very friendly.
TravelerWell, we loved this spot! Only ones here. Travelling in an RV. Some shallow snow on the track but firm beneath. Muddy if offtrack and saw some big ruts perhaps of people that struggled to get out. But stay on track and would be fine. Good protection from wind Minimal road noise Toilets at start of unpaved track Lake half frozen, locals fishing
GuideAmazing view, and great fishing access. Many places along the reservoir. Close to the road so traffic can be loud. Free to stay on most of the campsites along the reservoir aside from the boat ramp site. Beach front available but be careful of tides. My tent site was a max stay of 3 to 5 nights.
GuideGreat spot off the highway. I think this specific area has like 10 or so designated spots. Looks to be pretty popular. I got the last one open, on a Monday. (There's a ton of other dispersed spots along the road, I initially had in the coordinates for the Palisade dispersed camping but all other areas were too mudy post rainstorm). My spot was closest to the road so it was kind of noisy but that doesn't really bug me much. The birds were chirping away and the sound of the creek made up for it. It gets really muddy so keep that in mind the closer you get to the water/ if it has recently rained all of the pull outs are a little sketchy. I helped push a girl out who was stuck near the water, and some other folks helped pull out a truck. Everyone around was super friendly (: there's vault toilets available for all to use as well as porta potties at a couple of the sites. I'd definitely come back, the lake is low but it is beautiful.
LegendMeticulously cared for family owned and run campground with log cabins. Many pros to this campground... Nice wide sites, most pull through, clean showers and laundry room. The people who run it are super friendly and helpful. Great liquor store and great food truck attached to the grounds. great hook ups, reception and even better WiFi. Only cons are that it is just off Hwy 89, but you don't hear road noise at night. No dog park and is over an hour to Grand Teton and Jackson Hole. We did find great hiking only a few minutes from the campground. We would definitely recommend this place. The owners are constantly out doing improvements, which impressed us a great deal
ScoutI was charged over $50 for a parking spot w/no water - there are no bathrooms here. Way overpriced for an electric site.
LegendWe were traveling from the snow in the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone and wanted to find a place close by with warmer temps. Found this campground on google search. Has a total of 14 RV sites, all full hook ups with a picnic table, some tent sites and about a dozen cabins. RV sites are gravel and very level. There is a playground and picnic area. There is a shower house and a laundry. The office has ice and some supplies. There is a package store in the front and the town of Alpine is about 10 miles away. The campground is very well kept and the owner is very helpful. Great view of the mountains from any site and in all directions.
Guide
Boasts some creek side sites. Sites are very close together, water pressure is not great. Lot of roadside noise. The creek has a nice flow. Site was pretty level, great cell service through Verizon. WiFi sucks. Very “rustic” looking campground. It was OK for one night but I wouldn’t want to stay here any longer.
ScoutSpent two nights. Slept one night in the cabin other night outside. It rained both nights. Stayed dry both nights. Bring a nice pad to sleep on for sure. Cows everywhere. Side by sides race up and down the road. Hike around the cow trails. No cell service and no water. Propane stove and electric lights. Not sure about heat, but I think so. I'm definitely going back.
Scout
I loved staying at the guard station! There is a spot to hang your hammock. You can relax by the fire pit or read a book on one of the two picnic tables provided.
Make sure to bring your own water.
TravelerFirst class campground. Has almost everything you could want. Has a great boat ramp on priest lake. Sites are spacious and well taken care of. No pull through spaces but back in large enough for big trailers. Nice beach to swim or sit on next to the boat launch. Does have a few boat slips.
TravelerOpen free camping all along the reservoir. Drive on the beach until you find your ideal spot and post up. Great views of the reservoir and tons of bird watching to be had
Guide
Pros: pretty creek, decent pool, and nice store.
Cons: lots of dead grass and weeds, trash in the fire pit, a full on junk yard on full display, and junk laying around.
Good enough for a stop over, but plenty of other places to try for multiple nights stay.
ScoutWe came here just after the 4th of July holiday and it was so much more empty than the week before. The roads in can be a little tricky without a raised truck and 4 wheel drive when towing a large 5th wheel. But once you pick a spot it is so beautiful. Cool evenings and crisp mornings make the hot afternoons worth it. Gas and groceries right down the road. And there is a dump station and trash bins at the gas station. Very convenient.
Traveler
Really nice people. Helped us out in a jam. Clean bathrooms and showers. Full hook ups.
TravelerLots of fun
GuideThe park is a gravel parking lot. Electric and water hook ups look new. Staff was unfriendly and not helpful if you wish to get answers to any questions. Also didn’t give wi-fi code. Dinner at The Den restaurant was scrumptious and tasty burritos. Good for passing through but not a destination stop.
ScoutCrew has worked hard on improvements. Decided to stay for a while. WiFi is good, better than anyplace I’ve ever been. Great restaurant “The Den”! Gas is cheaper than in Pinedale. Propane on site. Convenience store...beer, liquor, deli. The only drawback is the wind gusts (so watch your awning)but that’s Wyoming! Beautiful sunsets, view of mountains!
TravelerThe website is very modern and the camp looks awesome. Reality… gas station RV park. It does has a grill/bar but expectations vs reality is disappointing. Young staff member didn’t seem to be too enthused to help me check in and wasn’t sure that someone wasn’t still in my spot. I asked for a paper with a map and WiFi password on it… nope! However the sight watching the storm pass by was pretty awesome.
RangerQuaint place with full hookups and amenities. The men's bathroom was quite dirty but the owners were friendly and the wifi worked well.
