Atlantic City Campground

This small BLM campground has no hookups, but it is extremely well serviced. For 18 spots, there are 3 bathrooms, 3 water spigots, and 3 bear-proof trash bins. There are a few pull through spots, but the rest are back in and many are quite small. The sites toward the back (ours was #6) are the most private, but all are fairly private. Each of the sites has a fire pit and a picnic table. There were a lot of tent campers and unfortunately one overly large fifth wheel that ran its generator quite a bit. Other than that one generator, it was quiet and peaceful in the campground.

The cost is quite low at $6 (or $3 if you have a senior pass as we do). The campground is just a couple of miles away from historic Atlantic City (with a nice but expensive restaurant -- the Mercantile) and only about 5-6 miles away from the South Pass City State Historic Site. It's also only a couple of miles away from the ghost town of Miner's Delight. There is hiking everywhere surrounding the campground. There's another, even smaller, BLM campground closeby, but the campsites are more out in the open. And, of course, there is dispersed camping for free all around. We liked the convenience of the campground and felt the cost was very minimal for such clean and well-maintained sites.

There are no reservations and there is no cell service.

We stayed here the end of July in 2014. We wanted to go to South Pass city, and this was the closest spot to camp. The campground is small, but well maintained with flat, easily accessible spots. Water is available, and there were bathrooms. I can't say anything about the bathrooms though, as I didn't use them.
We had deer around the campground, and there were nice places to walk nearby. South Pass city was not too far away, as well as Atlantic city.

No cell service at all.
