What Guests Are Saying
Shell Creek Campground offers a beautiful and well-maintained environment, featuring clean restrooms and friendly hosts who go above and beyond to assist campers. The picturesque location, nestled among large pine trees and alongside a charming creek, enhances the overall experience. While there were some minor issues such as generator noise and biting flies, the positives greatly outweigh the negatives, making it a highly recommended spot for campers.

This spot is amazing! Camp hosts were extremely nice. Set up my tent right next to the creek. Great place to view wildlife.

Beautiful spot. The campground hosts did not bother us at all (thank you!), but we also didn't break any rules. Great times......

Quite and clean. Most sites are on the Shell River among trees keeping them shaded and cool. Some trees must be 80-100 ft tall. Campground is a good jumping off spot for exploring the west side of the Bighorns and fishing spots. We saw lots of mountain bikers. If you are looking for cell service and wifi this is not the spot for you. The campground hosts were friendly. I'd recommend 2-3 days/nights at Shell Campground.

Beautiful, and rushing river with fish close by. We were just disappointed with sharing parking with another vehicle. It was also extremely windy for tent camping. Our tent survived, but it was scary.
