It was beautiful and really enjoyed sitting by the creek. It would get very windy. The dirt flying around was blinding. Bathrooms were clean.I was a little concerned that even though we had reservations, our site said open. Luckily we didn't have to run anybody out. But when we were getting ready to leave, a car driving by wanted our site. I hope no one had it reserved.

This is the sixth year in a row that we have camped the third week of June at Shell Creek. The fishing is good, the wildflowers are magnificent, and the scenery is breathtaking. The campground is small and quiet, because it's away from the highway. We plan to go back next June.

Absolutely gorgeous area. Site was clean and close to the water. Bathrooms clean.
No firewood for purchase that I could see and none laying around but with the weather beautiful I didn’t care to build a fire anyway. Love Wyoming

Great place to base camp from.

Very pleasant experience next to the creek; the area felt relatively secluded, yet accessible. But I am writing mainly to compliment our camp hosts. They are a friendly couple who keep the facilities clean and well-maintained. Noticing that our family has small children, they surprised us with cake. (Our hostess told us she had baked it for an event that same morning and had plenty leftover to share. The kids enjoyed it!) Would gladly return for both the scenic beauty of the area and the hospitality. One note - shade makes all the difference at this location. If you choose a site on the side of the road that lacks trees and creek access, plan for ways to keep yourself cool, as there is no natural shade on that side. (We were on the shaded side near the creek and had no trouble keeping cool.)

We stayed at Shell Creek in 2020 and enjoyed the campsite so much that we stayed again this fall (2021). Unfortunately not as desirable as 2020 was. The Big Horn mountains let cattle ranchers have open range for their herds to graze, that is fine, the campgrounds are fenced off accordingly to the keep live stock out of them. This year either the fencing was down or they were breaching the campground sites through the stream bank, I do not know for sure but there was not much effort put forth in getting them (cattle) or keeping them out. Everyday your campsite had cow crap around it, around the picnic table, fire pit, parking space. Other campers had their chairs tipped over, trampled on etc. You anticipate and expect wildlife, I do not classify cattle as wildlife. Never had an issue at the other campground in the Big Horns, just Shell Creek and just this year.
Hope they figure this out, if not, bring a shovel!

Dave was a great host. He had the camp facilities in perfect shape.
