About Campground

Uphill from the Horseshoe Bend Marina and picnic area, nestled in sagebrush and juniper woodland communities, the 68 campsites of the Horseshoe Bend Campground overlook the Bighorn Lake and the red sandstone cliffs of Sykes Mountain. The campground is located 14 miles north of Lovell, Wyoming via WY Hwy 37.

There are 28 large RV/boat sites that have water and electrical hook ups. Eight of the improved sites have wind fences. The remaining sites were left unchanged and are a perfect fit for small RVs or tents. All sites are available on a first-come, first-served basis except 10 sites that can be reserved.

Absolutely loved this place! We were in heaven! We had no cell service or WiFi for four days and nights! The scenery is gorgeous. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. There are lots of places to go and see. We took a two hour boat tour through the canyon. It was beautiful! We decided we were going back again before we even left.

Stayed here for one night in May. Great place. Huge lots. Quiet and clean. Beautiful scenery. Reserved our site online. Unfortunately nowhere it was mentioned that the whole campground wouldn't have water. So for that reason only 4 stars and a bit overpriced. Otherwise loved the place

Beautiful location! The scenery out there and the drive out there is gorgeous. There is no cell service, fyi. Campground has no shade and is very exposed. Can get very hot. Can be very very windy also at times. People running generators all night.Only one set of bathrooms there however they had porta potties in front of the bathrooms. I paid for a site with water and electric, however after being there less than 24 hours they lost power and the water was unusable due to contamination. Camp host nowhere to be found while I was there. Many people unhappy and left. Still trying to get a refund for the water and electric that I paid for that was not available. The company is not responding to emails I’ve sent. If you have a problem here don’t expect to be able to get a hold of anyone or camp host. Poorly run and managed. Would not stay here again. Very overpriced for what I got! They did not have available what is advertised.

One of the best campgrounds we have ever stayed at. The location makes this place! A hidden gem for sure. No trees for shade and it was a little windy for one day of our stay. Had bathrooms for both loops, but under renovations so only one was open. Had a camp store and marina with beach access right by the campground. Hope to be able to return one day.

Large open spaces. Many have great views. Plenty of first come first serve spaces that are awesome too! So don’t be sad if you can’t make a reservation, you can probably still get just as good of a spot.
