Camping near Gillette, Wyoming
Gillette sits in Campbell County in northeastern Wyoming, along Interstate 90 in the Powder River Basin. The city functions as a practical base for RV travelers routing between Yellowstone, Mount Rushmore, and Devils Tower, the country's first national monument. Gillette lies about 64 miles from Devils Tower, roughly an hour by road, which puts most regional attractions within a comfortable day trip.
In-town RV options include High Plains RV Resort and Campground, All Seasons RV Park, Sagebluff RV Park, and Rangeland Court Motel and RV Park. These are typical full-service parks used by travelers passing through on I-90 or staging longer visits to the region. For a lake and state-park experience, Wind Creek - Keyhole State Park lies roughly an hour east of Gillette, 6 miles north of I-90 off exit 165.
Keyhole State Park has 10 campgrounds with a total of 300 RV and tent camping sites, and the Tatanka Campground is the only area with water and electricity hookups. Travelers needing hookups should plan around Tatanka or the in-town commercial parks.
Things to do near Gillette
Devils Tower stands 867 feet from base to summit about an hour from Gillette, is considered sacred by Northern Plains tribes, and ranks among the best places in North America for traditional crack climbing. The Tower Trail is a 1.3-mile paved loop at the base that winds through ponderosa pines and is suitable for visitors of all ages and skill levels. There is a voluntary climbing closure during the month of June out of respect for Indigenous cultural practices.
Keyhole Reservoir is the region's main water recreation site. Ice fishing, boat fishing, and shore fishing are all popular, with a large variety of fish including crappie, perch, smallmouth bass, walleye, and northern pike. There are five boat ramps at the park, with docks located at the Wind Creek, Coulter Bay, and Pat's Point Campgrounds and at the marina.
In town, families can visit the Campbell County Rockpile Museum, tour the Durham Bison Ranch, and take the Eagle Butte Coal Mine tour.

In Gillette, summers are short, warm, dry, and mostly clear, and winters are freezing, snowy, windy, and partly cloudy. Peak RV season runs from Memorial Day through Labor Day, when in-town parks fill quickly and reservations for Keyhole State Park's hookup sites need to be locked in well ahead of arrival.
Keyhole State Park is open to camping year-round, with reservations required for all campgrounds except Wind Creek from May 1 through September 30. Outside those dates, most sites revert to first-come, first-served, though services and water systems may be limited by cold weather. Devils Tower National Monument itself is open 24 hours a day year-round, and a full schedule of ranger-led programs runs from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend, with some programs continuing into September.
Late spring brings the wettest weather, with thunderstorms and occasional severe weather across the plains. Fire restrictions can appear in mid to late summer during dry years; check Wyoming State Parks and Crook County notices before arrival.
How to book campsites near Gillette
Commercial parks in Gillette, including High Plains RV Resort and Campground, All Seasons RV Park, Sagebluff RV Park, and Rangeland Court Motel and RV Park, take direct reservations by phone or through their websites. Summer weekends and event dates at CAM-PLEX book out early, so lock in dates before arrival if traveling in July or August.
Keyhole State Park campsites, other than Wind Creek, are available by reservation only from May 1 to September 30, with reservations placed by calling 1-877-996-7275 or online through the Wyoming State Parks reservation portal at reserve.wyoming.gov. A daily use pass is required to enter and use park areas.
Campsites at Wind Creek Campground are available on a first come, first served basis, which is useful for travelers with flexible arrival times.
What to expect on the ground
Gillette is a working energy-industry town, not a resort destination. RV travelers should expect straightforward commercial parks with full hookups, laundry, and easy interstate access, along with grocery stores, fuel, propane, and repair services in town. This makes it a practical resupply stop between national parks.
At Keyhole State Park, most campgrounds are basic. Only the Tatanka Campground has water and electricity hookups, and other loops rely on vault toilets and shared water spigots. Wind Creek in particular has no drinking water. Cell coverage varies around the reservoir, and the park sits in open, rolling terrain with limited shade at many sites.
Wyoming winds are a constant factor. Awning use should be cautious, and taller rigs should watch forecasts for gust warnings when crossing I-90 between Gillette, Moorcroft, and Sundance.

Frequently asked questions about campgrounds near Gillette, WY
How much does it cost to rent an RV in Gillette, Wyoming?
RV rental in Gillette is one of the most affordable ways to explore the Northern Plains. On RVezy, motorhomes in the Gillette area typically range from about $175 to $250 per night, while travel trailers and other towables generally run $95 to $150 per night, with many hosts offering weekly or monthly discounts. To stretch your budget, book midweek, travel in the May or September shoulder seasons, and sort listings by price. Pro tip: pairing a cheap RV rental in Gillette with free dispersed camping on nearby Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land in Thunder Basin National Grassland can lower your total trip cost significantly.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Gillette,%20WyomingDo I need a special license to rent an RV in Gillette, WY?
Good news: for almost every RV rental in Gillette, your regular Class C driver's license is all you need. Wyoming only requires a special non-commercial endorsement if the vehicle exceeds 26,000 pounds gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), and the vast majority of motorhomes, campervans, travel trailers, and fifth wheels on RVezy fall well below that. You will need to be 25 or older, and RVezy verifies your ID right inside the booking flow. International visitors should grab an International Driving Permit (IDP) from their home auto club before arrival. That's it, you're ready to hit I-90 toward Devils Tower.
dot.state.wy.us/home/driver_license_records/driver-license/classification-guide.htmlIs insurance included when I rent an RV in Gillette?
Yes, and this is one of the best parts of booking through RVezy. Every Gillette RV rental includes a renter protection plan plus 24/7 roadside assistance. You choose the level of coverage that fits you during checkout (not the host), and the protection plan covers most damage to the vehicle, giving you real peace of mind on Wyoming's open highways. It is not traditional auto insurance, but it removes the biggest worry first-time renters have. Pro tip: choose your protection tier before you head toward the Bighorn Mountains, where cell service can get spotty.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat happens if I need to cancel my Gillette RV rental?
You're protected. RVezy (not the individual host) sets the cancellation policy for every booking, and there is a money-back grace period right after you book so you can lock in your trip with confidence. Refunds after that depend on how far out you are from your trip start date. The full details are shown on the RVezy cancellation policy page and during checkout. If your host cancels, RVezy will refund you or provide travel credit. Pro tip: book early for July and August (peak Devils Tower and Sturgis season) so you have the most flexibility if plans shift.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037736674-Understanding-the-cancellation-policy-for-guestsCan I bring my dog on an RV trip from Gillette?
Absolutely, and Wyoming is a dream for dogs. Many hosts on RVezy offer pet-friendly RV rental in Gillette, just toggle the Pet-Friendly filter to see them instantly. Once on the road, dogs are welcome on leash at Keyhole State Park, in the Belle Fourche River Campground inside Devils Tower National Monument, and across most of the Thunder Basin National Grassland trails. Bring a tie-out, plenty of water (summer highs hit the mid-80s°F), and check Devils Tower's pet rules before the paved Tower Trail. Pro tip: Dalbey Memorial Park right in Gillette has a fenced dog area perfect for stretching legs before you roll out.
nps.gov/deto/planyourvisit/pets.htmCan the RV be delivered to my campground or home in Gillette?
Yes, RV delivery in Gillette is one of the easiest ways to start your trip, especially if it's your first time renting an RV. Many local hosts will drive the rig to your campground, your driveway, or even straight to Keyhole State Park or the Devils Tower / Black Hills KOA, then level it, hook up power and water, and walk you through every system. Use the Delivery filter on RVezy to see who offers it and their delivery fees (set by each host based on distance). Pro tip: delivery to the CAM-PLEX during the National High School Finals Rodeo or PRCA events sells out fast, book early.
wyoparks.wyo.gov/index.php/places-to-go/keyholeHow far can I drive on a Gillette RV trip, and is unlimited mileage available?
You can absolutely build a big Wyoming road trip from Gillette. Each host sets their own mileage allowance, and many offer RV rental with unlimited mileage, just look for it in the listing details or filter for it. From Gillette you're 60 miles to Devils Tower National Monument, 95 miles to Sheridan, about 150 miles to Mount Rushmore in South Dakota, 175 miles to Custer State Park, and roughly 380 miles to Yellowstone's east entrance via Cody. Pro tip: if you're planning a Yellowstone or Grand Teton loop, message the host before booking to confirm mileage and pick a package that matches your route.
travelwyoming.com/places-to-go/cities/gilletteWhere are the best campgrounds near Gillette, WY?
Gillette is loaded with solid options for RV camping. Right in town, Greentrees Crazy Woman Campground on W 2nd Street has 100 sites with full hookups, laundry, showers, and a dump station, walking distance from the Rockpile Museum. High Plains RV Resort and Campground on S Garner Lake Road has 64 pull-through sites and stays open year-round. All Seasons RV Park sits a quiet three miles off I-90. About 30 miles east, Keyhole State Park's Pat's Point and Wind Creek campgrounds offer 30/50-amp sites along the reservoir. And the Devils Tower / Black Hills KOA puts you a stone's throw from the monument. Pro tip: book Keyhole sites through the Wyoming State Parks reservation system.
wyoparks.wyo.gov/index.php/places-to-go/keyholeWhen is the best time to visit Gillette, WY in an RV?
The sweet spot for an RV road trip from Gillette is mid-June through mid-September, when daytime highs sit comfortably in the 75 to 87°F range and overnight lows are in the 50s. July is the warmest month (average high around 85°F) and the busiest, especially with rodeos at CAM-PLEX and overflow travelers heading to nearby Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in early August. May and September are smart-money shoulder seasons with fewer crowds and lower nightly rates. Winters are genuinely cold (December highs near 30°F with snow), so most casual travelers skip November through March. Pro tip: book July and August stays at least two to three months ahead.
weather.gov/cys/I've never driven an RV before. Is renting one in Gillette beginner-friendly?
You're in a great spot to learn. Gillette sits on the open high plains with wide, lightly trafficked roads (I-90, US-14, and Highway 59), which makes it one of the most forgiving places in the country for a first time renting an RV. Every RVezy host provides a hands-on walkthrough at pickup covering driving, leveling, water, propane, and the generator, and you can message them anytime during your trip. Choose a Class C motorhome or campervan if you want easier handling. Pro tip: do a short shakedown loop east on I-90 toward Moorcroft before committing to a big day to Devils Tower or the Bighorns.
dot.state.wy.us/home/travel.htmlWhat if something goes wrong with the RV on my trip?
You're never on your own. Every RVezy booking includes 24/7 roadside assistance as part of the renter protection plan, covering common issues like flat tires, dead batteries, lockouts, and tow service across Wyoming and beyond. You can also message your host directly through the RVezy app for quick help with things like the awning, slide-outs, or water heater, and RVezy customer support is available before, during, and after your trip. Pro tip: save the roadside number to your phone before you leave Gillette since cell service thins out around Thunder Basin National Grassland and along Highway 24 toward Devils Tower.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/34008759079835-RVezy-renter-protection-plans-in-detailWhat are the best road trips from Gillette, WY?
Gillette is a fantastic launchpad for an RV road trip. The classic run heads about 60 miles northeast via US-14 to Devils Tower National Monument. From there it's an easy drive into the Black Hills, with Mount Rushmore and Custer State Park within a few hours. Heading west, you're about 110 miles to Buffalo and the Bighorn Mountains, with Yellowstone's east entrance roughly 380 miles out via Cody. Cross-state travel into South Dakota and Montana is allowed on most RVezy rentals, while travel to Mexico is not permitted. Pro tip: confirm any cross-border or long-distance plans with your host before booking.
nps.gov/deto/planyourvisit/directions.htmHow much should I budget for fuel on a Gillette RV trip?
Wyoming fuel costs are friendlier than most states, which is a big perk of an RV trip from Gillette. Expect a Class C motorhome to average 8 to 10 miles per gallon (MPG), a campervan rental in Gillette to do 16 to 20 MPG, and a tow vehicle with a travel trailer to land around 10 to 12 MPG. Gillette has plenty of truck-friendly stations (Loaf 'N Jug, Maverik, and Loves off I-90 Exit 126) where you can pull a long rig through easily. Pro tip: fill up in Gillette before heading to Devils Tower since gas in Hulett and Sundance can run 30 to 50 cents per gallon higher.
eia.gov/petroleum/gasdiesel/How far ahead should I book campgrounds near Gillette?
For peace of mind, book popular spots two to four months ahead for July and August. Keyhole State Park sites are reservable through the Wyoming State Parks online reservation system and fill quickly on summer weekends. The Devils Tower KOA opens reservations well in advance and books up around the August Sturgis Rally. Belle Fourche River Campground inside Devils Tower National Monument is first-come, first-served with no hookups, suited to RVs up to about 35 feet. In-town parks like Greentrees Crazy Woman often have midweek openings even in peak season. Pro tip: aim for a Sunday or Monday check-in to score the best Keyhole sites.
wyoparks.wyo.gov/index.php/places-to-go/keyholeWhat are driving conditions like around Gillette?
Driving around Gillette is mostly easy: I-90, US-14, and Highway 59 are wide, well-maintained, and rarely congested outside of shift changes for the coal mines. The main thing to plan for is wind. The high plains between Gillette and Buffalo regularly see crosswind gusts of 30 to 50 mph, and the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) sometimes posts light/high-profile vehicle warnings or closures on I-90. Check wyoroad.info before you roll. Watch for deer and pronghorn at dawn and dusk, especially on Highway 59 south toward Wright. Pro tip: if winds top 45 mph, postpone the Devils Tower drive (Highway 24 is very exposed) and explore downtown's Rockpile Museum instead.
wyoroad.info/What amenities will I find at campgrounds near Gillette?
Local campgrounds make RV camping in Gillette refreshingly simple. Greentrees Crazy Woman Campground, High Plains RV Resort, and All Seasons RV Park all offer 30/50-amp electric, full water and sewer hookups, on-site dump stations, potable water fill, hot showers, laundry, and Wi-Fi. Keyhole State Park has electric hookups at most loops, vault and flush toilets, potable water, and a public dump station near the entrance. If you need to dump or refill water mid-trip, Greentrees offers it to non-guests for a small fee. Pro tip: top off fresh water in Gillette before heading to Belle Fourche Campground at Devils Tower, where there are no hookups.
wyoparks.wyo.gov/index.php/places-to-go/keyholeWhat's actually inside the RVs I can rent in Gillette?
You'll be impressed at how dialed-in these rigs are. A typical motorhome rental in Gillette comes with a queen or king bed, convertible dinette and sofa sleepers, a full kitchen (fridge, freezer, stove, microwave, sink), a wet or dry bathroom with hot shower, air conditioning, furnace, and a generator or solar setup for off-grid nights at Thunder Basin. Most include a TV, and many list Wi-Fi hotspots or Starlink as add-ons. Seatbelts for everyone riding is standard, just confirm the sleeps-and-seats count in the listing matches your group. Pro tip: filter by Sleeps 6+ for family trips, and ask the host about a fully stocked kitchen kit so you don't haul pots from home.
travelwyoming.com/things-to-do/road-trips/What add-ons and pickup options should I know about?
Hosts in Gillette make customizing easy. Common add-ons include bedding and linen packages, kitchen kits, camp chairs and tables, bike racks, generators, propane refills, and Starlink Wi-Fi, each with a price listed on the booking page. Pickup is usually at the host's home or a meetup point near I-90 Exit 126 or 129, and many hosts offer paid RV delivery in Gillette to Keyhole State Park, the CAM-PLEX, or Devils Tower KOA. Mileage policies vary, with options for unlimited mileage on some listings. Pro tip: bundle delivery, setup, and a generator if you plan to boondock on BLM land south of town in Thunder Basin National Grassland.
blm.gov/visit/thunder-basin-national-grasslandHow does payment and the security deposit work on RVezy?
Payment is straightforward and fully handled inside RVezy, with no cash or side payments to the host. You'll pay your booking total (rental, protection plan, taxes, and any add-ons) by credit or debit card when you book. A refundable security deposit is pre-authorized on your card shortly before pickup and released after the trip, assuming there's no damage or excessive cleaning needed. Document the RV's condition with photos at pickup and dropoff to keep things smooth. Pro tip: dump tanks, refuel to the level shown at pickup, and sweep out the red Gillette dust before returning your rig to avoid extra fees.
help.rvezy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038106214-How-the-security-deposit-worksCan I rent an RV in Gillette in winter, and how do I prep for cold weather?
Yes, winter RV rental in Gillette, Wyoming is absolutely an option, and it can be magical with snow-dusted plains and zero crowds at Devils Tower. Look for listings marked as four-season or winterized, with heated holding tanks, enclosed underbellies, and a furnace, plus shore power capability for sub-freezing nights (December lows average 17°F). Greentrees Crazy Woman, All Seasons RV Park, and High Plains all stay open year-round with electric hookups. Drain or run RV antifreeze through the fresh water lines if temps drop below 20°F. Pro tip: park with the slide-outs facing away from prevailing northwest winds, and check WYDOT's wyoroad.info daily for I-90 conditions.
