The camp host was very nice and accommodating. We had booked a site that was actually part of a double site (we didn't realize this when booking). It would have been close camping to someone we didn't know. I started to drive around looking for another site that might be open. She approached us and when I asked her if something was available, she right away suggested another site that was available. She even guided us to it and changed the paperwork to make ot happen. We were very happy and the rest of our camping experience was awesome. Caught lots of fish and enjoyed our time at camp with two of our grandkids.

The Bighorns are a neat place with lots of things to see and do. Campground was nice and clean. We never saw the host during our visit. Moose are plentiful in the area.
