What Guests Are Saying

Clearwater Campground is highly recommended for group camping due to its spaciousness and proximity to the river. While there are no water facilities on-site, clean vault toilets are available, and water can be accessed nearby. However, some areas may experience flooding, and the campground lacks tree cover, with limited availability of firewood and host presence.

Beautiful campsite nestled in between beautiful rock formations that are a pleasure to wake up to. Bear lockers provided did an excellent job. Very helpful campsite host as well. Will definitely be considering for future excursions in Wyoming!

Great place and fairly quiet. Why did I not get the veterans discount? I have the state and federal park pass. Camp host was a great help.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
