As one of the most aptly named landscapes in the country, the vast scenery of Flaming Gorge may not fit into your camera. The Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area (NRA) is centered long the 91-mile section of the Flaming Gorge Reservoir and a rugged section of the Green River. The mix of climate and topography provide year-round recreation. The southern part includes colorful, narrow canyons, and conifer forests; the northern part is surrounded by high sagebrush deserts and rock mesas. Campgrounds, lodges, marinas, boat launches, swimming beaches, fishing areas, and hiking/ski trails are available along the 360 miles of shoreline and tucked into mountain retreats. Close at hand are the quaint communities of Manila, Green River, and Dutch John, which have accommodations and other services.

Dispersed camping south of Buckboard Marina.
Considered to be one of the most beautiful areas in Sweetwater County, this undeveloped camping area is a haven for camping, photography and stargazing. On average, 75% of the days are cloud-free for spectacular opportunities to see the stars. This is a fee-free site. Many camping areas are ADA accessible.
There are many types of camping areas with a variety of ground. This beach area was beautiful. We were greeted with a huge herd of sheep one afternoon. Lots of wildlife. Very windy but it’s Wyoming; about 11am-dusk. Lots of great rockhounding in the area. BLM land; so 14 day limit. Would definitely return.
Nice river side camping on a rock beach. Antelope, deer and birds of all kinds are plentiful. There are 2 roads each has at least one really nice dispersed camping spot.
Wide open BLM land. This particular spot is easily accessible, although I couldn't tell how friendly other campers were and you have to drive over sagebrush to really pull off the road if the one or two real pull offs are occupied. I ended up driving around rutted and rocky roads off the ones that are on Google maps, trying to find a good pull off but the few there are were already occupied, some by folks that seemed to have been there for a while. Some of the side roads were really rough and I was lucky to make it through them in my Subaru, although any vehicle could handle the main road to the spot tagged here.
It's also really exposed to the wind and elements with no trees. It's up pretty high and there's not really any wind break from the landscape. Very cold in mid September but I'd imagine really hot at times in the summer. I may have hit it at a particularly windy time but it definitely nearly made me look for an alternative spot, of which options are limited in the area.
Aside from that it was beautiful. Moon gazing and sunset and sunrise, smelled heavenly of sagebrush. I wouldn't count on seeing wild horses here- I read that recently they've been pushed out but you can look for them further east.
Great dispersed camp area with plenty of spaces and can camp right up on the beach.
Great dispersed camping. Beautiful views and we were able to launch our paddle board right from the shore. Homemade fire pits worked well.
During this stay at the Gorge we decided to do some dispersed camping on a peninsula on the west side. There were plenty of spots everywhere but nothing was really developed. Besides that there were gorgeous views all around and many good cliff diving spots. One of our favorite spots is on the east side after you pass the dam. Red Canyon is also another great place to take in the view and get some good pictures.
Dispersed camping on the Wyoming side is practically on a desert oasis so bring plenty of shade. Be prepared for a bit of noise from the ATVs, some dust, and a bit of fire ants during the day. Trust me, it's still so worth it. Spend both days there in the water. This rec area is amazing! Almost guaranteed to find plenty of space (well maybe not during a holiday weekend). Theres portapots by the entrance which depending on where you set up could mean a 10-15 drive so plan on hitting the bushes. Some wildlife, we saw 4 deer and a buck very close by. Cell phone service is available in certain areas. The Utah side is gorgeous but much more crowded. Maybe good to spend a bit of time here in day use and then close the day out over on the Wyoming side.

Forest service (dirt) road leading to Lost Dog day use area in Flaming Gorge. There are places along the road to pull off and boondock, with great sunrise and sunset views and occasional glimpses of the gorge. looks like it might be dicey after heavy rain
Very large dispersed camping area. As the starting point we chose Anvil Draw Boat Ramp. From here many roads bifurcate and you can select many other dirt roads - where to go and where to stay, by the water or on top of the hill with 360 views (google maps shows them pretty accurately). We stayed 5 nights - the longest so far and it wasn’t planned that way. But then the weather, surrounding areas and things to do made us stay longer - without any regrets. We had couple of days very strong winds. But others were hot and sunny to pull our inflatable kayak and paddle around. The waters were calm. Another day we explored to the other side of the gorge (Utah - gorge overviews, Red canyon, geological Sheep Creek Canyon Loop). There are many mosquitoes but as mentioned, they strangely don’t bite and are appearing in intervals and random places - behind protection of the wind and mostly at sunsets. Plenty of cows, pronghorn antelopes, variety of birds. Overall very quiet place with occasional sound of boat passing in the waters. Not much shade or trees around. Perfect view place to recharge and move on to next destination.
Great stop at the top of a small mountain. Easy dirt road access to many camping spots. Att had great service, very windy and some road noise from the interstate. 10/10 would recommend.
I don’t think I’ll ever get over the anxiety of heading to a dispersed campsite on the basis of the Dyrt alone. That air of mystery always puts a little know in my stomach. This spot quickly alleviated that the minute we pulled up to the area, with the clearly defying directions and rules on the sign, I knew that it’d be good. You can even see the water from a long distance, so you know what you’re getting. The spots are not defined at all and there are campers strewn all around the area, left from locals who stake a good spot for the weekend. That being said, there’s still plenty of room to find a spot along the beach. The water is crystal clear, there are spots of Greta sand, along with rocky patches of beach too. The paths and trails all around lend me to thinking that on the weekends the place is teeming with off road era, but being a Tuesday night it was quiet. HUGE drawback, and really was the only one, was the mosquitoes. Literally hundred upon hundreds swarmed our van around 7pm and didn’t let up all night. For some reason they weren’t landing on me, but I don’t know if that’s my condition or theirs. Saw antelope, pelicans, and plenty of other birds too.
We dispersed by boat launch. By ourselves on a Wednesday after labor day. Construction at east and west campgrounds. 5g cell T-Mobile. Roads only slightly muddy but after a rain. Yikes.
Those are nice dispersed campgrounds. Although there were quite a few RVs while I was there, I managed to find a spot for myself with a great view on the reservoir. It seems to be quite popular. (Driving a subaru impreza hatchback with 5.1 inches ground clearance.)
I came from the north and did the scenic drive and was looking for the campsite. One camper was already parked and that was my signal. No signage. But you'll see stone fire rings. Beautiful views, but this particular night the wind beat the camper up all night.
Seemed like there were plenty of spots for campsites and RVs. The gravel road was well maintained. It was EXTREMELY windy but it had calmed down by the time the sun had began to set. The walk along the water was beautiful and we had found some incredible rocks. The sunset and the stars at night are definitely the worth the visit.
Easy place to camp if you live in southwest Wyoming
We were on the Wyoming side not too far the Buckboard Marina . About a 15 min. drive. We have a 30 ft class A RV and we tow a jeep. We parked at the marina and took the jeep to scout out a site. The " roads" are just dirt, some in better shape than others. So it was easier to be able to pick our spot in advance and then just go get the RV. We had an amazing spot right on the water. No other campers on site. The views are spectacular. Sunsets/sunrise breathing. And the dark skies were mesmerizing. Its desert like. The silence was deafening. There's no shade. We didn't see very many pit toilets. No shopping very close to where we were. Its a great place to boat or kayak. We saw lots of pronghorn sheep and deer. We don't fish so unsure about that. We can't wait to return.
Great views and quiet enough for a night. It does not have any services. Tmobile service is good. We had a little trouble finding a level spot. It is gravel and some parts are more compacted than others.
It was really windy the night we stopped, but it was nicer than a truck stop!
Not level but tons of space. Several other rigs here and no one is close to each other. Getting over 400mbs on T-Mobile 5g
It's fairly quiet except when trucks are driving by which can be often at times. it's nice and open but when the wind shifted i got a smell from the refinery that was unpleasent. i don't believe i would stay here again unless i needed to. good for a short stop if needed. plenty of room.
It's just a little area to pull out directly behind an oil processing facility
Why is this even on this app?!
I had a great quiet night at this spot. When packing up to leave in the morning, an oil (?) company pickup truck stopped by and asked a few questions. I said I was just heading out - got the sense camping wasn't allowed. Probably best to leave first thing in the morning.
Not too busy, terrific views of the city below. Great experience, great site. Would recommend
A great little spot with a wonderful view. Little bit or driving on a rough dirt road. Would go to this spot again, would not go back for rent camping though. Too windy
Large enough for multiple rigs. Cool overlook down to Green River. Quiet. If this site is full there are other areas to you can pull into. Dirt road with some washboards and ruts.
A little bit more breezy and cool than down below. Lots of great places to pull over. Great views.
