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.

We have returned to Shell Creek Campground eight years in a row, during June. It is small, and away from the main highway, so is usually quiet. However, on this year's visit, we were close to a big "coach" RV that liked to keep the generator on most of the day, and sometimes past 10PM, the time when all generators should be off. If they need so much power, why do they come to this campground? They should go to one with electric sites. We didn't even want to sit outside because their generator noise overpowered the soothing sound of the creek rushing past our site. Very disappointing!
The rest rooms were very clean, and the campground was well-taken-care-of. Just hated listening to incessant generator noise.

Surprisingly beautiful! I couldn’t imagine there were places in WY this beautiful. All campsites are along the stream. It was cold for June however waking up to a dusting of snow brought the wildlife through camp. We had deer and moose come through to the stream. Make sure to stop at Shell Creek Falls before going to camp. It is stunning!
