Place to stop near Rawlins, WY?

[Bionic_Man]

We leave for our Tetons/YNP next week. I would like to find a place to stop somewhere near Rawlins, WY. We will be coming in sometime between 8 pm - 10 pm, then leaving by 700 am.

Any suggestions on a safe place to spend the night?

We found a large rest area just east of Sinclair and stayed there.

There is also a Walmart in town that looks to allow RVs. The flying j is on the west side of town, and we went up 287.

Thanks for the advice.

If you are in lander stay at the city park. Stay free for up to 3 days. Camping spots are right on the creek

^^^^So you are saying you can stay overnight in the visitor center parking lot?

Sorry should have said Sink Canyon SP has one of the best small visitor centers. The river going underground and then coming back up a 1/2 mile away is interesting and yes it's near Lander.

I've Googled the heck out of the Sinks Canyon visitor center and all I can find is the state park. Is it in Lander?
