    Indian Campground

    Good spot for an overnight

    We spent only one night here while we were on our way home from a two week long camping trip. We were in RV site 6, which was right next to the pool. The site was level, and included water, electric, and sewer hookups. There was a picnic table, but no fires were allowed (I think if you have a portable gas fire pit you can use that) and no fire rings are provided.

    The bathrooms were clean and in working order. We did not use the showers, but they appeared to be clean and in working order as well. We did enjoy a dip in the pool and it was very nice! There is a little general store and you can buy ice and even meat for grilling burgers and whatnot. The playground was also nice for the kids to enjoy. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    I will say that we didn't sleep well due to the noise from the very nearby highway. But we were in a pop-up camper. So if you're in a hard-sided trailer or an actual RV, this may not be as much of an issue to you.

    Sheridan/Big Horn Mountains KOA

    Finally, a KOA without all the rock

    This 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.

    Great waterfront sites available!

    Best to reserve your spot early if you want a waterfront site with power. If you are tent camping there are plenty of walk up sites. Fire pits and picnic tables at the sites and group sites are available. Outhouses are kept very clean and there is access to water throughout the State Park.

    Bighorn National Forest

    Dispersed Free Camping off Route 20

    Driving through Bighorn National Forest we found TONS of free dispersed camping off route 20.

    Sites are primitive… No running water, no electric, no restrooms. Sites consist of previously used dispersed site containing clearing and fire pits. There are camping spots for tents and RVs from large to small. If the first spot doesn’t suit you just keep traveling down route 20 to the next.

    Far apart and lots of privacy.

    We camped along a stream in a 32 foot RV. We were visited by a mother and baby moose.

    If you are seeking privacy, this is your place.

    No facilities, stores or cell service. You must be prepared and self sufficient.

    Buffalo KOA

    Great Cabins

    We arrived around 4pm with a reservation for a cabin. The host was great and a nice quiet place. Cabins are clean and the restroom/shower area is very well maintained. Stocked main office with good amenities. Our space heater in the cabin wasn’t working and was replaced quickly. There is a fire ban so no open fires or cooking. I opted to use my gas stove on the porch and there wasn’t a problem. Good location if your headed into Cody or Yellowstone within the next few days. TV also has a Roku adaptor. Laundry room/ shower open 24 hours.

    Tongue River State Park Campground

    Wow!

    Really amazing place. Thr vast majority of the sites are on the waterfront. Nice reservoir. I heard the fishing is great. Probably really busy in the summer. I visited in late October, so I pinky had one neighbor. Spaces are fairly private. Not many trees, fyi. Majority of sites have electric. Some double spaces on the water. Nice for groups. Picnic tables at each site. No wifi. ATT worked, my neighbor's Verizon did not. $30/ night with electric hookup.

    Greybull KOA

    Our little oasis

    We loved everything about this campground. My 4 yo son loved the pool and the playground. My 12 daughter loved the WiFi and extra clean showers and bathrooms. The laundry room was immaculate. We also got some fancy rocks for a very low price. After a long drive, this was amazing to arrive at a well organized ground, very level with picnic tables and trees and calming surroundings.


Guide to Wolf

Camping cabins near Wolf, Wyoming range from rustic to modern accommodations across the Bighorn Mountain region. Located at elevations between 4,000-5,000 feet, the area experiences cool summer evenings with temperatures often dropping into the 40s. Most cabin locations operate seasonally with limited winter access, though Shell Campground remains open year-round for winter cabin campers.

What to do

Fishing access: Mikesell Potts Recreation Area offers lakefront sites with excellent fishing opportunities. "Beautiful lake. You can camp next to the lake. There doing improvements to the campground," notes one visitor who appreciated the waterfront access.

Mountain hiking: The proximity to Bighorn National Forest provides numerous trail options within a 30-minute drive of most cabin locations. "The Bighorn Mountains are very close by and full of adventure," reports one camper at Indian Campground. "The couple who runs the campground were so nice and accommodating... The camp host provided us with maps and trails."

Wildlife viewing: The region supports diverse wildlife including moose, pronghorn, and various bird species. "We saw a moose by the lake one morning," mentions one visitor about the Lakeview campground area. Another camper at Mikesell Potts Recreation Area noted, "Saw lots of pronghorn. Did get a bit windy in the night, especially in a tent."

What campers like

Cabin quality: Many visitors specifically praise the maintenance of cabins at certain locations. A camper at Buffalo KOA noted, "Cabins are clean and the restroom/shower area is very well maintained. Stocked main office with good amenities. Our space heater in the cabin wasn't working and was replaced quickly."

On-site amenities: Several campgrounds offer additional facilities that enhance the cabin camping experience. "We had a pull through site with full hookups and a fire ring. The site was level, and included water, electric, and sewer hookups," reports one Buffalo KOA visitor. "There is an outdoor swimming pool and spa," mentions a camper at Sheridan/Big Horn Mountains KOA.

Natural settings: Campers value the natural surroundings at many cabin locations. "We stayed on a rainy/snowy weekend in September in our 17-foot RV and found that even though we had neighbors, there was plenty of room to move, and we heard little outside noise at night," shares a visitor at Sheridan/Big Horn Mountains KOA. Another added, "The campground sits along the Big Goose Creek, where campers can fish (mostly for carp)."

What you should know

Reservation timing: Summer cabin bookings fill quickly at popular locations. "Pulled in and it looked nice but it's right near the road. So pretty noisy at night with trucks going by," notes one Buffalo KOA visitor, highlighting why waterfront cabins away from highways book first.

Seasonal operations: Most facilities operate from spring through fall only. "This is, finally, a KOA that isn't covered in gravel and dust! There is real, green grass!" reports a visitor about Sheridan/Big Horn Mountains KOA, which operates April through October.

Bathroom facilities: Bathroom quality varies significantly between locations. At Foothills Campground, "The campground and cabins have been completely redone. The new owner is amazing and very welcoming. The cabins, bathhouse etc are all either new or remodeled." However, another visitor noted at a different time, "The only downside is the bathrooms are not very good which was a deal-breaker but overall we had a great time."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Some campgrounds offer better facilities for children. "There is a pool and nice playground for the kids. Pet friendly," notes one visitor at Sheridan/Big Horn Mountains KOA. Another camper mentions, "If traveling with family/friends, the campground offers quite a few activities on site. They had a basketball court, horseshoe pits, mini golf, swimming pool, and some fun looking tricycles!"

Tent shelters: For families mixing cabin and tent camping, specific campgrounds offer covered areas. "Each tent site has its own covered picnic shelter, which we thought looked unique. We had to eat inside our RV due to the rain all weekend, and were a bit envious of the tent campers being able to eat outside without getting wet!"

Local activities: Shell Campground provides convenient access to nearby attractions. "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."

Tips from RVers

Site spacing: RV campers note the varying density between campgrounds. "This KOA has nice wide lots and friendly staff. Laundry room was clean and cheap. Near a highway but not terribly noisy," reports one visitor. Another camper at Mikesell Potts Recreation Area appreciates that "Semi private. It appears there are long term campers here."

Camp store access: On-site supplies vary by location. "Stocked main office with good amenities," notes a Buffalo KOA camper. "There is a small store, game room and pool," mentions another visitor at a different location. This can reduce trips to town for basic supplies.

Terrain considerations: Ground conditions affect cabin and RV setup. "Picnic tables at each site. No wifi. ATT worked, my neighbor's Verizon did not," reports a camper at Tongue River State Park Campground. "Sites are close together, that would be my only disappointment, but that is very normal for these kinds of commercial campgrounds."
