3 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Wheatland, Wyoming provides several RV parks with varying amenities and hookup options. Mountain View Park offers full hookup sites with 30/50 amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections on a level parking area just off the highway. Peak View RV Park, located about 13 miles from town, features big-rig friendly sites up to 60 feet in length with full hookups including 50-amp service. Lewis Park in downtown Wheatland maintains six gravel pad sites with 20/30/50 amp electrical hookups and operates on a donation basis with a 3-night maximum stay. Arrowhead RV Park and Chuck Wagon RV Park in Fort Laramie round out the options with additional full-hookup sites for motorhomes. "Spots are just off the highway but it was quiet, pull through parking lot with no trees. Clean bathrooms, coin showers and laundry right across the street."
Most RV parks in the Wheatland area remain open year-round, though some like Pony Soldier RV Park operate seasonally from May through September. Cell service varies across the region, with most parks reporting adequate Verizon coverage. Dump stations are available at Lewis Park and near Glendo State Park headquarters for those staying at electric-only sites. RV travelers should note that train noise affects several parks, particularly those near the Union Pacific line. According to one visitor, "The sites for the most part are level and gravel and some shade. There are picnic benches scattered throughout the campground." Potable water access points are limited at some locations, so filling fresh water tanks before arrival is recommended when staying at electric-only sites. Many parks accommodate pets but have specific restrictions regarding outdoor fires and grilling.
"Right of rt25 in Wheatland with beautiful mountain views. Super friendly and helpful owner would definitely stay again. Very clean laundry/bathroom building."
"We stopped at the RV park on our drive home and stay for a night. Nice white box with hook ups for water and for power and a nice laundry room close by an offer less than 50 bucks."
"While traveling through the Big Horn Mountains we stayed at this gem! Holy smokes there were a lot of negatives... No cell service, thin air, wild animals.... And then... the Adventure began!"
"Mostly long term campers, only 6-8 sites available. That is pretty standard for this area. Traveled to Oregon Trail tracks, Pony Express stop, and Fort Laramie on a day trip."
"Spot has full hook up 30 and 50amp. Laundry facilities only had 2 washers and 1 dryer but wasn’t a down fall for us. The view is amazing, mostly quiet with the faint sound of the train going by."
from $30 - $32 / night
from $35 / night
"Parking is on dirt but it’s level and well packed sand. Full hookups at each site. Everything is clean and well manicured."

"It's barely a mile off I-25 in Wheatland. This town park campground includes six gravel pad 20/30/50A electric sites for RVs and numerous sites for tents only."
"Located in the city park, there are a few tent camping spots and about RV 15 camping spots, some with electric hookups. There is no charge, but donations are accepted."
"The gps will bring you down a 2 track road on the edge of a field there is a sign that says keep out. Ignore it that is for the field not the road."
"We loved it here, nobody else camping close to our site. Water was low we sat in the trees peaceful lots of geese roads to campsites are bad big pot hole. Nice sunrise and sunsets."
GuideFirst come, First Serve. $25/night. Level pads and easy to back into. Creek running behind the campground. Public Internet is available. There is a train nearby, but the whistle is not too loud. Would stay here again.
RangerWe stayed one night at a power plug in as a treat and then moved to the no reservation area for a week or so closer to the water and had a wonderful time. Super soft sandy roads coming into the camp sites so had a few times getting our car stuck, probably not the best in that area for heavy rigs. The walk to the water is surprisingly long lol but lovely. The water was warm and pleasant during August. We had a wonderful time on the weekdays, weekends were a bit loud due to other campers. The Marina restaurant nearby is cute and everyone is really nice. Check out the nearby trail in the dam area. Trash on the way out which is great. Self serve pay.
GuideWas weird camping by a golf course, small cute, clean area. Had electrical and water, no dump station. Nice dog park across the pond/creek/river and access to a trail system that took you to historical sites in the area.
Could not book online need to go into golf house to reserve a site. They will give you a sticker/paper to put on your camper. Glue did not come off when peeled the paper off the camper.
GuideI stopped here on my way from Florida to Shoshone National Forest. It was very convenient and provided water and electric. All the sites were back in but with plenty of space.
RangerWould be 4 stars if there were at least some kind of direction. The first entrance you come to is technically the end of the campground if you consider the higher number sites being the end. The second entrance has a line of dumpsters and starts with the camp host. There are no signs at the forks telling you which numbers are which direction. So we guessed and thankfully were right. Although the gravel road is mostly smooth for a gravel road there is a little washout in some areas and we'd prefer not to drive around the whole place just trying to find our spot. Only saw one sign while riding our scooters through the park that indicated a set number of sites in the teens so make sure to save or screenshot a map. Its not a huge campground but who really wants to drive the whole grounds. Vault toilets dotted throughout but we never used them. There is for sure a water fill station at the first entrance. We were already full but someone was using it to fill when we drove in so it appears to be in good working order. Dumpters at both ends. Newer boat ramp and plenty of parking available for trucks w/ boat trailers either in the paved lot or on the beach. Rangers with invasive species check station in operation. Water level was very low during our visit but still beautiful. Was also clearly stated on the website along with other alerts such as the bloom and fireban. The bloom did not seem to affect the area we were at. The water was clear and clean. Our site #4 very large pull through and its quite sloped. We had to use 3 blocks on the right side to level. Can see the water through the trees. Every evening the deer made a loop around us for dinner grazing. They even came quite close. Very cute. Only other complaint is some of the people would drive by quite fast and kick up a lot of dust. There is only one dump station for the entire park located at the park head quarters after shelter point campground and the marina.
RangerRight of rt25 in Wheatland with beautiful mountain views. Super friendly and helpful owner would definitely stay again. Very clean laundry/bathroom building. Gravel dirt lot with cement pads, full hookups and picnic tables. Very long sites can accommodate big rigs. I reserved by phone a week in advance. No credit cards so bring check or cash $60 at the time of my visit.
GuideHere's a place to drop anchor when it's been a long day of driving. For $25 bucks (July 2026) you get a level site, electrical power and water. And, you get access to a black tank dump as you leave. The surrounding park grounds are wonderful to stroll in the cool of the evening to get rid of that "been sitting & driving all day" blues. Torrington the town offers services & food. When it's time to stop, this place offers the solice needed.
TravelerHad two sites at end of road with great views , no shade but always pleasant breeze. Almost secluded with nearest other camper 1500 feet away. Bathrooms were very clean and didn’t smell at all .
ScoutThe place is beautiful. There are no trees for shade. You may be the only one there as it takes a bit to get there. The road is good except if it rains or is wet. Very peaceful place as you may be the only one there. Would go there again. There is a restroom there and is maintained
