Ponderosa Campground in Cody, WY | RV Park & Cabins

This is one of the nicest campgrounds we have ever stayed at. Customer service is fantastic clean bathrooms and showers and I am very picky. Great location and I recommend the rodeo and show we go back every year. You won’t be disappointed.

We stayed with our 39' RV at Ponderosa Campground and absolutely loved it! The location is perfect — central to town and just minutes from the rodeo, museum, and shopping. This is a welcoming, family-owned campground with such accommodating hosts. They gave us great instructions and helpful tips on what to see and do in town. The campground itself is beautiful, with spacious sites and a fantastic playground for kids. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!

Our first experience at the campground ~ it was a good to know the staff was available, accommodating and super friendly... They tended to every need/request (as I understood from other campers). All the bath houses were clean/well stocked. There is a wonderful gift shop directly behind the office.... The reviews I read about a "small dog park" is nonsense.  Plenty of room for dogs of any size (yes, even the Great Danes we saw)...Located on the main street, night noise wasn't an issue.  Definitely will be returning again!

It is very difficult to rate this campground in terms of stars.  The location is central to all the things we visited, but that it put it on the main thoroughfare which made it loud and bright.  The tent sites are in a privacy fenced and shaded area with excellent bathroom access.  However, that also meant noise as people traveled to the bathroom at all hours.  The staff is the friendliest, most helpful group of people you will ever meet, and the bathrooms were 5 Star.  The bathrooms were clean and well stocked, the showers were private and thoughtfully arranged, and the water pressure was superb.  If you are just looking for a one-night stopover, this is a fantastic choice.  If you are looking for a quiet and peaceful place to spend a few days, this is likely not a good choice.

This campground is a great location to walk all over town. People are super nice. Yes sites are close together but we spent very little time there. The dog park is tiny. They have plenty of room to make it bigger but it's maybe 10x20, I've had bedrooms bigger. Not good for larger dogs. Laundry was nice, store was nice with an ATM. Watch the trees, we backed in our motorhome and a tree just about took out our awning. 3 feet away at the base but leaning in, maybe more suitable to a class c not an A. Weird that all the utilities are not in the same area. Water towards the back of the RV, power in the center and sewer under the RV in the back. And it seems each site is a bit different. First site they gave us our hoses wouldn't reach the water because of a tree in the center we had to angle in. First world problems! All in all best for location location location

Customer service was great! We were very happy with how kind the lady was with us. We were supposed to camp in a tent but when we arrived it was supposed to hail that night (it had been raining)  so she accommodated us in the game room since we had our kids with us. We really appreciated that. The restrooms, (free) showers and laundromat are very clean, there's a little playground for kids and even a gift shop. If your wanting to go to the rodeo and not drive there is a bus that picks you up there. Cash or Check only. Definitely will be but this time in our RV! Thank you ponderosa campground.

Great place to stay.  The staff are very nice and knowledgeable about their town and Yellowstone Park

We called months ago, message said call back March 1st, we called today and they are already booked, not a very honorable bunch of people! Liers 

Well run business. They have all the details down. Best in Cody.

Great value with clean everything, you won’t be disappointed. Plus Cody’s a lot of fun!

$42.50 per night with Sams discount!! Full service with very close sites - no fire pits ... right in the town of Cody. They have Wi-fi which works pretty well, laundry area,  only RV park open until October 15. On a scale of 1-10, I give it a 6 because of the price and close parking. - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group

Cody, WY - Ponderosa RV Park. 1815 8th Street Cody, WY 82414. 307-587-9203. Open April 15 - Oct 15 (weather permitting maybe more). This is an in-town park with 137 sites – FHUs, level, mostly gravel sites (I saw a few concrete sites), some short, some long, some back in, some pull thrus. Offers AAA and Good Sam discounts. Has a good sized store, clean laundry and bath houses, rec room, picnic tables, cable and WiFi (although it didn’t work well for). We had a long pull thru on the end of a row so we didn’t feel crowded at all. Some of the sites in other rows looked tighter so I recommend looking at a map of the park online before booking and hopefully getting a site you like. We were happy to have a shade tree – not all sites did. We also had a narrow long concrete patio that worked well with our awning. We don’t travel with kids, but I saw a playground. The park also has tent sites, plus cabins and a few teepees guests can rent. The park is close to the awesome Buffalo Bill Center of West, to restaurants and downtown, and on the road to the East entrance of Yellowstone. The staff was helpful and friendly to us. They do not take CC so be sure to have your checkbook or cash.  - Review provided by RV Park Recommendations & Reviews Facebook Group
