Clean, simple, full hookups. Hot shower, laundry, dog park. Easy on and off highway. It's not a resort but it's terrific for its purpose.
Retired And Free
Service rating is based on no one here to check you in on Saturday. Appears to be a grave parking lot with a severe downhill slope from left to right and downhill. Utilities are good as is Verizon hotspot. Most of the RV's here appear to be here for storage. Save some money and stay at Walmart.
S Smith
Fantastic experience. Easy in and out for our big rig at the last minute. Friendly staff, RV repair shop on site. Clean restrooms.
The Real Deal
Man, I do NOT understand the folks leaving poor reviews of this place. Pics are available online, so if you didn't look at them it's your own dang fault. Yeah, it's a "gravel lot behind an RV repair shop", but it's also a full hookup campground with an awesome staff (OMG, Boomer!), a fenced in dog area (which is NOT standard at RV parks, sadly), WiFi (which I didn't use or need, since I just used my phone, but I appreciate its availability), a FULL RV store with specialized parts and accessories, and a 24/7 staff you're not going to find at any other place. Jenna and her dad are great people, and you can bet your last sand dollar that the next time I swing through Wyoming I'll be staying there. Jenna and Dad also gave me some great flexibility when the previous camper had left an impossible to remove LEAKING Y-adapter on the water line for the site I'd picked. No problem! "Just move to whichever one you like and set up." Someone else was complaining about the view. I had NO complaints, and commented to my wife that it was amazing to see such a vista while at the same time being mere minutes from downtown. I think some people just can't be made happy. I'm not one of them. I loved the place.

An absolute great place to stay. The entire staff was amazing and friendly. The bathrooms and laundry rooms were kept clean. A nice grassy area for the dogs. Would definitely stay again
