Albany County Fairgrounds

Don’t expect much from a fairgrounds campground and you won’t be disappointed. Just appreciate the low price for FHU 30 amp. Sites are gravel with weeds and level for the most part. Some road noise but otherwise peaceful mid-week. Convenient to downtown Laramie. Lots of OTA channels and able to stream with AT&T. Come in under the fairgrounds arch and head left then work your way back past the beef pavilion to the single row of RV sites.

We stayed here for two weeks. It was easy to pay using their QR code /or u can pay by at box at the pay station. All sites are back end, our 37’ class A didn’t have an issue. Full hookups for 30 a night isn’t bad at all. We stayed after their fair so there was animals here which was a treat for the kiddo. Very close to stores, downtown, mountains, Colorado, and easy access to the freeway.

Nice that they have full hookups. Quiet even though you can hear a little road noise and train but it doesn’t blow the whistle. Absolutely no shade and bath house was not open. With little else around for full hook ups it was a nice stay and we would stay again. If there was a rodeo or anything going on at the fairgrounds you would not be able to stay, so plan accordingly.

From Jackson WY to Austin, Laramie is a good stopping point for the first night. Google maps gave us bad directions to the rear of the campground, but common sense then took us back to 287 and south one street to the clearly marked Fairgrounds entrance. The back in full hookup sites are pretty level when you back all the way in. The water connection at site 24 had stripped threads making it impossible to hook up to water without a lot of spray, so we just used the electric connection. 30 amp and 50 amp on the pedestal. It was quiet the night we stayed. So far one train has passed by, but not that close and not a big deal. There were plenty of sites to choose from when we got here around 5:00.

Convenient and, unlike some fairground 'camps' it was easy to find. I find $30/night a bit steep for a fairgrounds but full hookups are hard to find at that price. There is a restroom but I didn't use it. Trains. Also, Saturday night there was a live band very near with a throbbing bass that went on until about midnight. Otherwise, no complaints and will return for a day or two. But not on a Saturday.

The fairgrounds in Laramie WY has about 26 back-in sites with hookups for $30/nite. There is a pay station similar to that used in state parks where you fill out your own registration info and deposit money in an envelope at the pay station kiosk.

The RV section at the fair grounds was closed for a special event when we arrived on Aug. 1st, 2021. Since we are self-contained and don't need hookups for a one night stay, I asked for permission to park our Class-A motor home in the overflow parking next to the main entrance to the fair grounds.

Not much to see, but we had a safe place to level the coach, deploy the slides and relax until the next morning.
