Four miles into the Medicine Bow National Forest, and 6,600 feet above sea level, there’s a small and cozy little campground along La Bonte Creek. Oh, and it’s inside of a canyon, too. This magical place is called Curtis Gulch Campground. While there’s tons of outdoor fun to be had, rock climbers in particular should check this spot out. If you’ve ever heard about climbing at Vedauwoo (or if you’ve climbed there), you’ll be intrigued to know that many climbers consider Curtis Gulch to be the best crack and slab spot on the Northern Laramie Range.

Little Ponderosa RV Camp

26mi from Curtis Gulch Campground · 2 sites · RVs · Douglas, WY

This property belonged to my grandparents. My grandpa and grandma ran cattle and sheep on the land and put up hay. They raised my dad and his two brothers on the place. My dad and mom built a house just West of the property, where I grew up, walking over the hill to visit Grandpa and Grandma. They sold the ranch when I was 10 years old. The place was sold 3 times before I was able to buy it back in 2021. The purchase included an RV campsite. My wife Lindsey and I thought, what a great way to meet people and share a little piece of our amazing Wyoming. There is nothing better in the world than waking up early in Rural Wyoming! Learn more about this land: Open views of hay meadows, cattle, sheep and sagebrush. The area around the campsite is an open field with easy interstate access. There are neighbors within view and our home is approximately 1/4 mile away from the two RV camping spots. We have kids, horses, sheep, dogs, cats and rabbits. There are also antelope and deer. We do offer electrical, septic and water hookups at both locations. Both sites are immediately adjacent to one another. Just a short drive from Douglas, Wyoming and Natural Bridge State Park.

80 acres with gorgeous views of Elk Mountain, the Snowy Range, Laramie Peak, the Shirley Range, and Como Bluff. A perfect place to get away from it all. You will very likely not see another human, but you will see plenty of antelope and maybe some coyotes, swift foxes, badgers, and jackrabbits. Pictures don't do it justice but it's a beautiful place to enjoy the sky, the horizon, and watching the weather change and roll in throughout the day. Bring shade for the day and warm clothes for the night! Watch out for rattlesnakes!!

Curtis Gulch is a magical place as it's described. The La Bonte stream runs parallel to the campsite and is a short hike. The only negative thing to camping there is the road leading into the area. It is very rough and narrow in some areas. Drive slow and a 4WD pickup pulling a camper can make it. Do not expect cell service. All the camp sites are primative meaning no water or electrical hook-ups. There is one (what I would call) updated outhouse. It's best to go during the week as it starts filling up on Friday. We drove over to another campsite but the campsites were closer together and maybe only one was big enough to back a small RV into. Fire rings are available. A pump is available with well water. The area is clean.
