Some sites are close together with some more private, some are shady and some no shade at all. There small boulders scattered around the site and with the beginnings of the fall colors beginning to turn beautiful. There is a small creek that runs along the back side of some of the sites.
The road and sites are covered with gravel. Drive slow to keep the dust down.
This is a very peaceful site and great to enjoy all the Bighorn has to offer. You will find off road trails, scenic jeep roads and hiking trails. Meadow Lark Lake is a short distance from the campground. The nearest dump station is 15 miles at Powder River Pass. Watch for the majestic moose wandering around the campground.
Wonderful, and easy access to spacious campground and a breathtaking setting. Moose visit site so be aware and enjoy. Great family or individual camp locations.
This is a well maintained campground tucked away in the Bighorns. Our experience was very pleasant, quiet, and slept next to the rushing waters of the creek. Seen three moose while we were here!
Stayed here for 3 nights in July of 2019. Convenient location for the hikes we were doing and not too far from the west or east entrance to the park. Arguably the cleanest vault toilet I have ever seen. The campground host took pride in maintaining the place. Went in Mid-July, the campground was probably at 2/3rds capacity and we didn't have any neighbors on either side which was very nice. Warm during the day and cool at nights.
10-sleep is just a short drive away for gas and food and most importantly a spectacularly Wyoming brewery.
For $17 a night, try and get a site right on Tensleep Creek. Sites are pretty, and private-ish with lots of trees (some good for hammocking, some not). Everything was really well maintained to the point of everything looking new. All the usual amenities of picnic tables and fire pits and grills, PLUS there are pretty awesome prep tables for cooking and a lantern pole at each site, with super clean vault toilets where the camphosts have set pots of flowers to improve the setting. I suggest getting a site on the backside of the loop away from the road. The campground hosts were great, checking on campers a couple of times in the early evening and again in the morning. They rolled around in their golf cart stocked with firewood for sale so you didn’t have to hike back to the top of the hill to get your wood. There are some great family activities areas in the campground with horseshoes, cornhole, and other games set up in a central activities area.
