Google Map: Last Chance Camp, Cheyenne EXIT 16 / 211 staying RIGHT/EAST off the ramp - the next cross street is Yellowstone, take a Left-on Yellowstone Road. The Next Street is Coonrod Road on the Right (Large School on the West of Yellowstone. Look for North Star sign and mailboxes) Come on down 3/4 a mile and we will be on the LEFT/North Side. Our House is ORANGE - Look for our Signage Last Chance CAmp Camp; house number 11234. LOOK at the MAP- Please do NOT knock or ring ANY Doors!! There is NO Office to check-in. Go to the prairie and park by a picnic table. Message me when you have arrived. Review the Map in photos to get acquainted with the property if I am not around, or if it is after 8PM. RV campers enjoy open prairie camping to the West - Signage Tent campers have options to camp in the open prairie. You may still opt to come up for the firepit. Look for Signage. The tree row on the left side of the home is best for easy access to your vehicle, outhouse and shower. This area is more for those willing to see and possibly talk and share with other humans as well as our friendly dog, Brandon - he is super great. Parking along the circle drive is designated to the Airbnb lodging folks.
Christine was a great host! We had a wonderful stay and great experience! She made us feel just like home. Thank You Christine!!🙏 God Bless.
This property was amazing. We love staying here! The staff was kind, caring, and accommodating. We stayed in a truck bed tent and were a lot of the generous size spot. Will definitely be staying here again!
We travel the country. It's not always the places you see but the people you meet. Christine and her husband are great patriots/ hosts. We really enjoyed meeting them and spending time on there property.
Friendly horses, friendly dog, friendly chickens, friendly people. It's basicaly a big field with a handful of picnic tables. You'll have plenty of privacy if you want it.
It can get windy so be prepared. There's one porta potty at the front of the property, it can be a long walk if you're set up in the back. They have a decent communal area and kitchen. I retreated here when an active storm moved through with a lot of lightening. I figured this was much safer than a lone tent in the middle of a field. The overnight rain was very peaceful and helped me sleep.
Where is the shower? Aha, I found it! It's a small unmarked building behind the wall of the common area.
Last Chance isn't that hard to get to. It's a good spot for an overnight while traveling or a few days while exploring the Cheyenne area.
Highly recommend Last Chance Campground. Christine was very amenable to our late afternoon request for camping and welcoming when we got there even in the cold. Winter camping is great because we had the pasture to ourself. Woke to a perfect sunrise and a couple of grazing horses. Just wish my dog was more polite to hers as he was the welcome greeter. Would stay again. Thank you Google for popping Last Chance up on our map.
