About this campground
This historic property, perched atop a scenic hill, offers a peaceful overnight retreat with ample, well-marked parking suitable for RVs and large rigs. The expansive grassy grounds provide plenty of room to maneuver, and guests consistently praise the serene atmosphere—an ideal spot to rest and recharge during road trips. Convenient access to nearby amenities at the base of the hill adds to the location's appeal as a strategic stopping point. The museum itself is a remarkable collection spanning Wyoming and western history, housed in a beautifully preserved cavalry stable built during the Great Depression and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
