Very quiet and peaceful. Kids were able to run down to the lake and swim (even though there's nothing on the website that says swimming is an option here). Pine forest with little undergrowth = lovely visibility into the woods. A deer cruised by our site late evening. The nearby path into the woods from the lake was a highlight. Absolutely picturesque hike along a lovely stream. Bear spray recommended. Vault toilets were clean. Camp hosts kind and attentive.

Very nice campsite with lots of pines. Clean bathrooms and water available to fill your 5 gallon jugs. Many of the campsite have electricity. Beautiful lake with great docks for fishing although the fish were not biting the day we fished. We enjoyed the many hiking trails from the campground. Saw moose and Deer every day. Beautiful area!

Camp host came to our site and greeted us, which was nice. We were in site 5 so we were kind of off by ourselves. Site 4 is kind of off by itself, and I would get that one next time. Other guests were a little noisy. About 11:30pm some kid was crying and whining for about an hour which made it difficult to fall asleep. Very dark at night, lots of stars.

The camp hosts were awesome. The water wasn’t on when I was there and the electrical system was out most of my 1st day. It went on and off during the next 2 days. It sits right on Sibley lake which is really nice. Big spots with plenty of room between each spot. Plenty of moose and deer around and Plumb creek is full of nice fish.

The park was still under snow only opening just a couple days before we got there. The first sight we were assigned was covered in over a foot of snow and we were not able to pull in. We took the next open site next door (as it also had electricity) and it was open but 2 inches of mud and gravel. We pulled in and were unable to level the camper or use our camper's jacks due to the site conditions- so unable to put out the slide for the night (so no bed for us to sleep on). Then we hear from the camp host that the water is not yet turned on due to the late thaw.

This was very disappointing to arrive to these conditions especially after a 6 hours drive ending with 10 miles of driving up a mountain of switch backs. Had we know about these conditions we would have camped elsewhere - if even a parking lot.

Great stay at Sibley lake. Marty and Crystal were great hosts. They kept the restrooms clean and the garbage picked up. They also reminded us about the camp rules and bear awareness. Very clean campground and one of our favorites in the Bighorns.
