We truly believe High Plains Camping is your best option in Oakley. We also find this campground is better than average of the many campgrounds we have reviewed. Our good rating comes with some caveats especially for car camping/tenting. We found the tenting areas somewhat spartan lacking often picnic tables, fire rings and electric which are available for the RVer's. Also some of the features seen in the photos are not available off-season or limited hours of operation. We feel we were also influenced by arriving late evening in the off-season during stormy weather but our review stands. The wind breaks of conifers is of a huge benefit to the usability of this campground but not enough to offset everything else. Maybe during better weather we will stay here again. We visited May 2023.

Basic RV park open all year. Located next to the interstate full hookups with showers and toilets. Easy to find. Easy to get to from the northern Wheatland exit. Just remember to get off the main road through town at the truckstop and follow it south along the east edge of the interstate. Plenty of room to move and turnaround even large areas. The Main RV parking area is dirt with a side area of grass with tables (tent area??) According to the website the rate is $45 per RV. Tents are said to be ok but call ahead to confirm this is still an option. Considering what the Resort RV parks charge this might be a better option. We visited September 2022.

We stayed here September 2022. Warm night and no wind. Unusual for the Laramie Highlands. This campground is one of two in the area and tends to be more exposed but also less buggy and less crowded. Campground was clean including the vault toilets. Black bears are found in the area so no leaving items out or in a tent. No water. No electric. No camp host as it is off season. Nice to see a campground at normal usage which was three occupied sites out of fifteen on a weekday night. Fee for 2022 was $ 10 per night.

We took a look around this campground as we were camping in the area in September 2022. The campground was about one third full which is good for a weeknight. This campground is of lower elevation, many more mature shady trees and closer to I-80. Some traffic noise from the interstate and with the trees and stream may be more buggy but much more protected from the wind. No water in the off season and maybe all year. No electric. We saw a number of medium size RV's. only some spaces are pull thru. The rest are roughly 20 foot back-in. Three sets of vault toilets. There is a nice stream below the campground. Fee was $10 per night. We have included some photos to give you some idea of the facilities and sites.

There are two important features which are not obvious in the other reviews. First is the USFS has built a permanent vault toilet with two stalls here within the last year. A great improvement over the former portapottys. Second, this campground is not only for equestrians only. RV's and tent campers are welcome. The views here are stunning especially around dusk and dawn. We visited in middle May 2023 and we were the only ones there. The drinking water was also on which is not a given in the early season. Currently $10 off season and $17 high season. Well defined

camping spaces with fire rings and picnic table. SHHHH do not tell everyone about this nice quiet campground!
