Great campground, nice tree canopy. Working water well. Very dark. Closest site to Buffalo itself. Well maintained

Got our favorite site. Quiet, small campground (10+/- sites). Nice facilities, great host.

our 2nd time staying at circle park, it is a very nice and secluded campground, we stayed in site 7 our first time and it is very very shaded which i liked but my wife wanted a bit more sunlight, the 2nd time we stayed in site 4 which was a very nice mix of sun and shade, both times we have been there the bathrooms have been very clean and not smelly hardly at all, campground host has been great both times as well, i would highly recommend staying here if you want to get away from it all and just enjoy some time in the woods

Great campground. Away from main road, along the edge of a beautiful meadow. Potable water and newer restroom. Very clean. Quiet! Only a few campers. Some completely shaded sites, some more open with some sun for solar.

Very peaceful and quiet. Site was clean and orderly. Vault toilets were clean and stocked. Visited by a moose cow and calf each evening of our three night stay in the adjacent meadow.

Site 9 was great and had a pretty good, only slightly sloped area for our large tent. Otherwise most sites were on the side of hills so had slope, even the parking areas on several. Our site was huge and most sites had a lot more privacy than other campgrounds we saw. Toilets were pretty clean and it was great to have the potable water. Meadow near toilets was great for star gazing. Campground host was usually gone except when doing his rounds and he did run out of firewood the last two nights but we had enough. In general, loved the campground and hope to go back!

Pretty location with good hiking to several lakes. Lots of trees for shade and most sites were well spaced apart. For tent campers, be aware that several of the sites don't have much of a flat area for a tent. We were in spot 8 and ended up putting our tent at the back of the parking area. The bathrooms were clean and there was water. The host was friendly and helpful with hiking recommendations. The only downside was there were a lot of biting flies. Bring plenty of deet or a screened room.

Campsite was closed and they cancelled my reservation less than 30 minutes before I showed up. There was no cell service and I didn't know it was canceled until I drove up to a locked gate. I had to back up my trailer on a very busy road to turn around and find a place to stay late at night. I'm had to request a reimbursement and they only partially paid me back. Complete ripoff.

Beautiful campground. The hiking nearby was spectacular!!
@HeidiA3217832 · Camped on Aug 23, 2022 at Campsite #8
Very clean and well kept campground. Campground host made regular rounds. Secluded area - would definitely stay again!
@LeslieK8428925 · Camped on Aug 18, 2022 at Campsite #8
Love the privacy, quiet, cleanliness, and access to the wilderness
@KristieH120358 · Camped on Aug 13, 2022 at Campsite #4
I loved this campground, it is tucked way off the beaten path, great views and secluded sides.

Nice staff, nice location. However, they have some problems with management. In the time of our staying (hot season- august, many campers with children), without our knowledge and more importantly camp staff knowledge, the gravel roads in the campground were treated for so called anti-dusting mixture with terrible smell. That made all roads muddy, and as a result all shoes (and even kids pants) were so dirty and smelly.... All fresh air to be outside was spoiled for several days.

Too busy at my site with the restrooms and pump, my mistake. Lots of people -not staying at the small campground -were driving in and filling multiple 5 gallon water jugs over the course of my 3 day visit. There are alot of boondockers in the area. Seems like the camp hosts would monitor this traffic a bit-doesn’t seem right for them to use the services (water pump) without paying some sort of water fee if they aren’t staying there.
@ShannonS994874 · Camped on Jun 25, 2022 at Campsite #4
Beautiful campground. Did not regret this stop during our journey. Vault toilet clean and well stocked. Did not need to speak to camp host but knew they were available if needed.
@SteveA2172208 · Camped on Sep 2, 2021 at Campsite #6
Our site was level for our small camp trailer. Not all are. Camp host was great. Nicest outhouses of any campground we have stayed. And we were far enough away from the highway that this was one of the quietest campgrounds we have ever stayed. We did an off pavement trip on the Hyattville road on the west side of the Bighorns. Plan on using 4 wd low. But really beautiful country. Such long views. Also, Crazy Woman Canyon is a great half day trip from Circle Park CG. We were there at the end of the season so can’t vouch for what it is like during peak season.

I was in campsite #3, which has a small tilt to it. Otherwise, the campgrounds were very clean and Walter, the host, was personable and helpful.
@jasonl2729902 · Camped on Aug 21, 2021 at Campsite #4
Our camp host Walter was friendly, informative, and took good care of the facilities. The two mile drive into the campground is breathtaking. We had a great experience and was sad to leave. We reserved site number 4, it was unlevel but worked for our popup. It has a good view of the meadow and we had moose within 100 feet. Sites 4,5, or 6 would be our preferred sites. Highly recommended campground!!

Outhouse was spotlessly clean. Beautiful setting with nearby hiking. Deer and moose frequent the nearby meadow.

Small campground with a lovely meadow and wonderful, attentive, and friendly camp host…however sites are not level, small and many have large grades…

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
