Customer Reviews
A decent campground with good size sites. Really better suited to RVs bit with a few tent areas. It is worth it to reserve early to get the sites nearer the water. Wind is also an issue. We were instructed to take down our tarp whenever we left camp. No showers or flush toilets here bu there are showers in another campground you can uses. They are pay.
37 sites: 29 pull-through sites, 3 back-in, and 5 designated tent only; 7 of the sites are reservable, the remainder are available on a first come-first served basis, so you always have a chance of getting a spot here. Recommend getting there earlier in the day. ||$17/night for non-residents, $10/night for residents||||The reservable sites are the only ones with electric hookups. All the rest are primitive. Restrooms, water fill-up and a dumpstation are available.||||Sites are on 3 loops and all have pavement drives, have a picnic table, and fire ring. Plenty of drift wood on the beach for campfires. ||||Beach is rocky, so bring your watershoes, but water is gorgeous and refreshing! The views across the Reservoir are spectacular with mountains in the distance. Our dogs loved cooling off i
This is our 2nd year we stayed at Buffalo Bill state park site 7. We warned site 7 is on a hill so being level may be issue for some. We parked backwards so our door faced away from the road. Our campsite has a nice view of the lake and the mountains. We love it here. There is no flush toilets on the campsites closest to the dam. It's all pit toilets. The other campground has one shower house with bathrooms in the showers.
So many great things to say about this campground! We extended our stay another week to enjoy in this one-of-a-kind place. We will look forward to returning. 18-minute drive to downtown Cody and anything you could want, but wow - you feel like you are in another world out here. The drive to Cody is beautiful in every direction, going through tunnels and alongside the rocks. ∙ Large, pull-through spaces (our 28ft vintage Airstream was smaller, lots of big rigs pulled in with ease) ∙ Very well spaced out and quiet campground. You don't need to know your neighbors here if you don't want to. ∙ Non-flushing, very clean, top-tier camp toilets ∙ Free dumping station that was clean and easy (included hose) ∙ Campground is situated above lake, so you can do a scramble down to the shore line or dr
Check in until 8pm, we were late and they kindly left our car tag at the gate. The #7 campsite is fine for the night, very sloped, the campsite, fire ring, picnic table, are on the driver's side so if we were planning on staying here I would be disappointed, but there are many beautiful campsites with incredible views looking over the gorgeous reservoir. I'm quite nervous about grizzly bears and rattlesnakes... Bathroom was horrible.
