Please visit the new page to apply.
The campground is composed of two loops, winding around the boulders, slabs and cliffs of the Vedauwoo rock formation. The formation is made up of 10 square miles of weathered Sherman granite, providing lots of space to explore. There are 28 RV campsites and 20 tent sites with tables, fire rings, trash pick up, and vault toilets. This area is constructed to blend in with the natural beauty of the surroundings. The vegetation is a variety of Limber pine, Engleman spruce, Douglas fir, and Aspen. The general area was once used as a hideout for outlaws. Native Americans thought playful spirits piled up the boulders. There is access to rock climbing and a nature trail through the rocks.
Vedauwoo Campground is located about a 20 minute drive from Laramie, WY and roughly 45 minutes to Cheyenne, WY. Cell phone service is decent depending on carrier. Hosts will receive $20 per day for reimbursement. Propane, gas and mileage for driving around campgrounds, and gas bought for a personal generator can be reimbursed with receipts. The host has black water hookups. No power or water hookups are available. Potable water is available inside the RV campground from a hand pump. A black water dump station is available in Laramie.
