JMA Campground is located about 15 minutes west of Riverton, Wyoming. Outstanding views of the Wind River Mountain Range and the Owl Creek Mountain Range. We do not have trees or green grass - bring your own shade. LOL We have 30 and 50 amp RV sites (each site has water) along with primitive tent sites. Amenities at the park include WiFi, fire pits, firewood, shower and restroom facilities, picnic areas, trash services and a RV dump station available for $15. Visitors can take advantage of the various outdoor activities such as basketball, hiking, biking and stargazing. Our campers enjoy our quiet solitude - we're not located along a busy noisy highway! Jim and I established our place in 1983. We produced team ropings and barrel racing jackpots for nearly 40 years - we no longer produce rodeo events (due to health). In 2017, we decided to share our property with campers - we have cherished each and every moment - we have made so many friends! From the JMA Campground, it is 50 miles to Thermopolis (hot springs, whitewater rafting, fishing, buffalo, dinosaur museum, etc.); 60 miles to the National Military Museum in Dubois; 130 miles to the South Entrance of Grand Teton National Park; 45 miles to Lander; 70 miles to South Pass City - many other local attractions.

Weekend Trip to Camper By The Brewery With Pavilion

There was confusion on renting the RV site vs renting an RV. This needs to be made more clear in the description. As far as everything else goes, I would gladly stay here again. It was close to the music festival, (within biking distance) and a nice level concrete pad to park the van on. I have also looked into purchasing a spot here because it is such a lovely space and area!

We loved Thermopolis Stop. The name is perfect! Beautiful views. We went and took a soak at the Hot Springs. The laundry was a welcomed surprise. Peaceful. Easy access and hookup with our 20’ trailer.
