I know this location has been discussed in the past but i just have a couple more questions for those who have been there. Is it really as bad as some reviews make it out to be? I understand sites are close together but are there other horrible things about it as well?Many complaints state that you are only allowed 2 showers a day in the showerhouse. Am I missing something here? Is showering in your own rv with full hookups not allowed for some strange reason? Booked it for a week next July,wondering what to expect (or not to)Thanks!

Sure it is tight, but you're there to visit the Park, not the RV site.I thought it was okay for what it was. Used my own shower, too.

I believe you are given tokens to use at the shower house. If you want more tokens you'd need to purchase them.As for taking showers in your RV - have at it!! Water is not limited.There are no issues at the campground. I've seen 'tighter' campgrounds than this, for sure. The main thing to remember is that this is a wild area and it's home to wildlife. Keep your campsite clean. The rangers make regular cruises through - for a reason.Have fun!!

Yes it's tight. But were were rarely in the RV during the day. The whole point is to be out and exploring the park. Obviously you can take all the showers that you want inside your own RV, they don't have a water meter on your hose after all.

Wow, thanks for the quick replies! I feel much better now!Really looking forward to this trip, we will be incorporating it with the Cheyenne Frontier Days, YIPEE!

when I was there the showers were some of the strongest I have ever seen. don't remember how we got admittance but I do remember that they charged non $$ campers to use them.bumpy

They are not that tight - the sites are double wide and you park your tow vehicle / car next to your unit

The sites are small and the parking lot of a cg is nothing special. We showered, ate dinner, and slept there.. with so much the park has to offer we felt like we were wasting time being there. Have a great time!

Yes, you are only allowed two showers per day, but we used our RV shower too. The sites are tight, but as others have stated you're not there to hang out at the campground, you're there to see the park.

My biggest complaint (which I've not seen anyone mention in any of the FB threads) was the mosquito population. BE sure to take mosquito spray with DEET in it if you plan on grilling, eating dinner outside, or having your morning coffee outside of your RV. Taking the dogs out was a chore.

The must have reworked the sites then. When we were there we were about 3 feet from the unit parked next to us and neither of us had slides. We could hear everything that went on in that unit.

But again it's just a parking place for your RV while you look at the park.

Yes, I've read this as well! We have had an extremely rainy summer(if you can call it that) here in the Chicago area and the mosquitoes will carry you away. I guess I'll feel right at home ;)
