Fremont Canyon Campground

If you are looking for great camping, clear beautiful lake to fish and 8 miles to town this is the place for you. We loved this place.

Nice campsite with full hook ups. When making a reservation i was told i could have a tent at the site however once arrived we were told no. My guess is they expected the new showers and bathroom to be completed. The RV park shared a road with the town’s maintenance facilities so truck began coming in early.

Close to a small beach area and right across the street from the marina which was a huge bonus.

We enjoyed staying here as it was a change of pace from the rolling hills of southwestern Wyoming.  The reservoir that the N Platte leads into is actually Pathfinder Reservoir and not Alcova.  I think Alcova is the reservoir that lies further upstream closer to Lander.  Regardless of the name of the reservoir it was an absolutely gorgeous place to watch the sun rise and set as it lit up Fremont Canyon at both times!  Nearby there are plenty opportunities for boating and fishing, including about 20 m below the camp spots were dozens of fish swimming that we could see from above!  A little bit to the east there are also a decent amount of trad climbs that you can hike to the bottom of in low water or rap down to in case there is high water.

Now about the campground itself.  This was a completely primitive campsite/campground as all the spots were pull-offs on the south side of the road (N side is private, don't camp there!)  The only preexisting things at the campsites were stone fire rings and semi level dirt areas to toss up a tent.  While this is definitely not a place for glampers or RVers, if you have a tent or are car camping it is one  of the best spots in the area!

Camped on a pull off on Fremont Canyon road near a climb we wanted to do the next morning. We were nestled in between some sage brush and junipers and about a 10 minute hike down the side of a cliff was a beautiful river and our climbing spot. Many fisherman would visit thhroughout the day and wade in the river looking to get rainbow trout. Beautiful remote spot!
