@NathanD4550007 · Camped on Aug 6, 2025 at Campsite #9

Beautiful area. Nice site.

@MaryE2458C773A · Camped on Jul 31, 2025 at Campsite #6

Porcupine campground was a nice, spacious, quiet campground. We will definitely be coming back.

@TiffaniJBA9AA1 · Camped on Jul 19, 2025 at Campsite #8

I stayed a Campsite #8, which is tent camping only. This site is right next to a dirt road with heavy traffic, big trucks and loud four wheelers. Also, this is the fresh water pump is broken. You have to haul your own water.

@DannyM5743726 · Camped on Jul 9, 2025 at Campsite #15

The only issue was that the water pump was not operational. Otherwise, a great campground, I will visit again. We had a great hike to Porcupine Falls, it was beautiful. Also saw Moose close to the campground.

Porcupine campground is wonderful. Plenty of space between campers.

@LindaKA0F790A2 · Camped on Jun 19, 2025 at Campsite #10

Everything went well! We had no problems with Campground reservations

@BRYANA8771519 · Camped on Sep 1, 2024 at Campsite #3

We fell in love with Bighorn Mountains over 20 years ago. Coming back to camp at Porcupine Campground was like a dream come true. It is so quiet and peaceful there. We hope to return again and again.

@MatthewO386420 · Camped on Aug 27, 2024 at Campsite #8

Beautiful campground. We stayed in site 8, which was a tent only walk in. The site was perfect, well kept, and the perfect place to spend the evening! Just keep your eye out for the squirrel that throws pinecones! Also don't expect any cell service(better that way in my opinion).

@NancyP3737622 · Camped on Aug 4, 2024 at Campsite #5

loved our one night in this perfect little campground. zero mosquitoes was a bonus!

@BrianP3895634 · Camped on Aug 2, 2024 at Campsite #8

Quiet clean campground with plenty of trees and close to many things to do. We stayed in site 8, a tent only site, and our only complaint was that there was no privacy from site 9, the other tent only site. Renting the two together would be preferable if you want privacy.

@LindaKA0F790A2 · Camped on Jul 21, 2024 at Campsite #2

Our reservation at Porcupine Pine Campground was not correct due to a glitch on the website that I made in January. But our camphost, Pat, was amazing! He worked with us to get our reservation corrected and made our stay great! Amazing to work with!

@curtisc4155868 · Camped on Jul 16, 2024 at Campsite #2

Nice place host was very knowledgeable and courteous only one complaint there is no water for filling up your RV unless you go to the lodge and you will probably have to purchase something in order for them to give you water

@Frederick406F7 · Camped on Jun 26, 2024 at Campsite #2

Wonderful site, Easy access to bighorns and a quick drive to the Falls trailhead.

@CharleneMA80E2 · Camped on Jun 21, 2024 at Campsite #2

Great, quiet, off the beaten path campground. Campground (including pit toilets) was clean and host friendly. We stayed in site 2 which was fairly large. Sites 13-15 all have open view of meadow with sunset...will try for those on next visit, although at least one of them is first-come only. We hiked forest service roads nearby, drove to Medicine Wheel National Monument (definite must see) and hiked to see Porcupine Falls (the trail is a significant descent but worth it). Campground was full during our June 21-23 stay, which was encouraging to see. We showered and got an afternoon snack at WY High Country Lodge (minutes down USFS Road 13); friendly staff. I was a bit nervous that Alt Hwy 14 would not be open for our June travel (because of snow) but it was. We saw snow up at Medicine Wheel. Have also heard Five Springs Campground is beautiful. Definitely would return to area.

@ShayFA09D37E92 · Camped on Jun 17, 2024 at Campsite #10

Pat the host was fantastic and knowledgeable about the area. Restrooms were well tended as well as trash removal. Great experience!!!

@FrankS93F17B5F · Camped on Jun 13, 2024 at Campsite #12

Campground was clean and host was great

@BrettM6000628 · Camped on Aug 31, 2023 at Campsite #2

Spacious campground. Water was far. Close to Great Horned Owl, deer and cattle. Cold!

@KarenN9769488 · Camped on Jul 27, 2023 at Campsite #15

This small campground is in a great location to explore nearby Porcupine Falls, Bucking Mule Falls, Paradise Falls and Medicine Wheel. We were in campsite #15. Unless you want to put your tent up out in tall grass and weeds with uneven ground, look for the small flat area under the trees, just big enough for our 11x9 tent. Easy walk to vault toilet, which was not as clean as others we have stayed at.

@CaseyK90F082B3 · Camped on Jul 21, 2023 at Campsite #11

Can't recommend this spot more. Right on Porcupine creek and only 5/6 miles from Porcupine falls (where you can swim right by the stunning waterfall). The campsites are so spacious and have beautiful surroundings. Two trash bins and two restrooms on either side of the campground. No service and no bear boxes. Will absolutely stay again.

@CherylD4270459 · Camped on Jul 18, 2023 at Campsite #10

Great place to camp. Close to Medicine Wheel and waterfalls.

@RoyalD50F9D450 · Camped on Jul 12, 2023 at Campsite #14

Our reservation was not held by the campground host and other campers were in our site when we arrived. The campground host was nowhere to be found. Luckily we got assistance from the good folks at the Wyoming High Country Lodge who directed us to other camping options.

@SethM9848452 · Camped on Jul 4, 2023 at Campsite #10

Ok, bathrooms needed cleaned

@JAMESS8693241 · Camped on Jun 29, 2023 at Campsite #2

I don't know how Gallatin Canyon Campgrounds are securing contracts with the Forest Service, but if my experience with their outfit is any indication of how they are operating other campgrounds on the mountain, I can't imagine they should remained contracted for long. I have never been treated so poorly as a campground, by a camp-host no less, in all of my years camping both in the Big Horns and around the country. I highly recommend you take measures to address the non-sense going on by these sites operated by Gallatin Canyon Campgrounds, they are giving the Forest Service a bad name, and bad image.

@CassieLEACC90E · Camped on Jun 20, 2023 at Campsite #3

Loved the camp hosts sense of humor and attention to detail. The campsite was so well situated and we loved our stay there!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado
