We fell in love with Bighorn Mountains over 20 years ago. Coming back to camp at Porcupine Campground was like a dream come true. It is so quiet and peaceful there. We hope to return again and again.

Beautiful campground. We stayed in site 8, which was a tent only walk in. The site was perfect, well kept, and the perfect place to spend the evening! Just keep your eye out for the squirrel that throws pinecones! Also don't expect any cell service(better that way in my opinion).

Quiet clean campground with plenty of trees and close to many things to do. We stayed in site 8, a tent only site, and our only complaint was that there was no privacy from site 9, the other tent only site. Renting the two together would be preferable if you want privacy.

Nice place host was very knowledgeable and courteous only one complaint there is no water for filling up your RV unless you go to the lodge and you will probably have to purchase something in order for them to give you water

Our reservation at Porcupine Pine
Campground was not correct due to a glitch on the website that I made in January. But our camphost, Pat, was amazing! He worked with us to get our reservation corrected and made our stay great! Amazing to work with!
