There's no sewer at this park, but it was still a bargain for one night. We arrived early and saw the Trail Ruts, Register Cliff and Fort Laramie. Our Sprint phones would not work but our Verizon Air Card did. They said Verizon was the only game in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
You can't beat the price! Water and electric hookups only, and no dump station. All spots are back-in on dirt/gravel parking spaces. The spaces are very close together. The night we were there, all the spots were occupied, so there was no "elbow room". There is a small community grassy area with picnic tables behind the parking spaces. Check-in is at the golf course clubhouse. Great location for visiting the Trail Ruts State Park and Register Cliff. We also went to Fort Laramie National Monument, which is 10 miles up the road. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They were willing to do whatever they could to make our stay pleasant. We had great views of the golfers approaching the 9th green. I'm sure they appreciated my kids' noise while they were chipping and putting! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This park was undergoing repairs on the bath rooms and the showers. Still it was a welcome oasis after a day traveling. Water pressure and electricity were good. The park is directly across the street from the 'Oregon Trail Ruts' historic site and only a mile from Register Cliff. The city golf course is adjacent and the green fees were reasonable. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park was the second city park we have used. You basically get what you pay for – the cost is $15 per night for water and electric. If you stay a week, you get a substantial discount. The water spigots in some sites did not work and from what we have been told by other visitors, have not worked for at least two years. Maintenance on the RV park was not a priority. The priority was the golf course which was next to the campground. If you plan to see some of the surrounding sites, this is the best location and the cheapest. It is quiet at night with hardly any train noise. The golf course is one side and the North Platte is on the other. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Rating based on comparing to other city parks. Not a full service campground. This is a city-owned campground located right on the Platte River next to the city golf course. 15 sites, but they would be very tight if all 15 were used. We were there with 6 other TT and 5th wheels, and had plenty of room. All sites are back-in, but very long for any length. Parking mostly on very well manicured grass. All sites very level. 20/30 amp service good. Water at all sites, however they were working on a couple of hydrants repairing winter freeze damage. Nice location, as it's right on the Platte River, and across the street from the Historic Oregon Trail Ruts location. A nice walking trail takes you from the campground to the Ruts about 1/2 mile off the road. Off of Highway 26 through town, turn south on Wyoming Street for one mile. Follow the Oregon Trail Ruts signage to park on left. Check-in at the golf clubhouse. Open only April through October. No sewer hookup or dump station. Nice stopover point for the night, but if they've got a lot of other takers, the sites will be very tight. We would stop here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
