Larson Park Campground

This was a special little campground along the water. We didn't golf but stayed across the bridge along the water with electric. These are not numbered sites so it was kind on random wherever you find an elec post. This is a shaded area of grass and dirt. We picked up Verizon and Dish satellite. For $15 it's a deal for the area. There wasn't a bathroom that we saw. We visited the Oregon Trail Ruts site across the street, the Register Cliff down the road and Ft. Laramie a short distance away. The lady working here is super nice!!

Great location on a nine hole golf course, next to the north platte river. Oregon trail ruts a short walk away and, register cliff two miles. Guernsey state park is less than five minutes west. I choose the back campground ( electric only) as the shade provided welcome relief from 95 degree days. I enjoyed my stay.
I’m driving ms. Lazy to the next adventure.

With COVID-19 restrictions still in place on many public land sites, we were happy to find this city park and golf course operated by the Town of Guernsey. Only a few of the water/electric sites were occupied on the Monday night we pulled in so it was no problem that we didn't have a reservation, however they do accept them as well as allow after hours arrivals and check-in the following morning. The sites are fairly deep with a little slope to the front but we were able to level pretty easily. The pedestal provides 30 or 50 amps; water pressure was good and the park provides picnic tables, a covered pavilion and a shaded playground. Free WiFi with a pass-code is provided at check-in. We are self-contained so we didn't check the restroom facilities. There is no dump station on site but there is one at the WY rest stop at I-25.

Just over the hill to the east is a military installation, Camp Guernsey, that broadcasts morning Reveille, a noon trumpet call and Taps in the evening; that's really cool if you have military family members. A short walk away is an overlook to the Guernsey Ruts from wagons following the North Platte River on the Oregon Trail. The golf course is a short nine holes but well maintained and inexpensive. We paid $18 for 18 holes, cart extra.

Overall this was a nice, quaint experience and we are very appreciative of the hospitality provided by the Town of Guernsey.

It turns out that there is a second section of campsites available at Larson Park. They are behind the old fairgrounds, next driveway north of the main campground. These are called dry camping sites and there are 12 spaces by my count. Each has 30/20 service but do not have water. Price is $14 per night.

Also the campground has WiFi that was showing 1mpbs up and down. Not speedy but a good solid signal.

Larson Park is attached to the Guernsey golf course. There are 15 sites. 30/50 power on the power pedestals. Please note there is NO RV dump available. Closest one is the Wyoming Visitor Center at I-25 or within Guernsey State Park.

The entrance to one of the Oregon Trail historic sites in nearly across the road and would be hikeable.

All sites are back ins. With relatively close spacing that might be challenging for rigs over 30ft, making the backing turn to get in.

Seems to get light to moderate use.
