Sweetwater Events Complex

We stayed one night on our way through town. There wasn’t an event happening and we had our pick of corrals. The whole place is gravel and the sites are mostly level. Wooden dividers separate the vast space into sites of two. The hookups are located at the back of the site and required an extension for the electrical and sewer hoses. The entrance to the “campgrounds” is located in the livestock entrance past the main gate. The caretaker is located at the back and there was a doorbell attached to the gate. They have a dog in the yard that barks but is friendly. It would be an ok place for an event or in a pinch but the tractors were busy running back and forth until 10:30pm and the dust was heavy, so we won’t be returning.

We were here at Sweetwater Events Complex for a Tiffin Rally in mid June and went into the Boar’s Tusk Campground first before the rally started. It is a gravel full-hookup site for $30 a night. All the services are located in the back of the site and depending which site you have, you may need extensions for electric, water, and sewer. This campground wasn’t full when we arrived and you could pick whatever site you wanted and then pay in the office. We were able to get 6 OTA TV channels (usually) and ATT was 12 down and up but seemed like the tower was busy most of the time for using data.

Had a hard time finding a site with running water. Caretaker was very helpful. Sites are first come. 1200 sites, about 1/3 were available.
Safe and clean. Didn’t use facilities.
Easy to find. Gravel roads Gravel sites.
Hookups are centrally located. Good to have sewer hose extension/water. Mostly depends on site you chose.
Short drive to town (5 miles).

This is a huge camp area that is all gravel next to the Events center. There are tons of sites and I can't imagine they are ever full except for a couple of times a year during peak events. The host is really nice and the sites are super affordable. The parking at each site is a little wonky but they are not picky on how you park. We will definately camp here again on our trips through this area. They also have a nice dog park area.

Just follow the signs to the caretaker's house. Her CC machine did not work, so I wrote a check for the $28 (good sam discount). She pretty much said park anywhere, there were only a handful of folks there for a horse event. We could hear racing over on the other side of the complex, but we did not unhook to go explore.

We backed in at an angle, probably taking up 2-3 "spaces", so we did not stick out since we stayed hooked up to the truck. The utilities are in the middle, between the rows. We needed water and sewer extensions to reach; fortunately the electrical was ok with our standard cord.

We stopped in town at the Albertsons to get some food and also fuelled up since the even complex is on the north side of town. We just cooked a simple skillet meal in the trailer and then streamed a movie on Netflix. There is a cell site nearby so our Cradlepoint performed great.

Is it fancy? No. But it's a good place to dump the tanks and top off the freshwater on the way to boondock in one of the national parks. Would I stay there again? Probably, but if there was a more direct route to Grand Teton I might explore that next time. We basically drove across the southern end of Wyoming from Golden; the scenery is not very exciting.

What a disappointment. Drove 550 miles, needed to dump, and load water before staying in the national forest. Would have preferred to use the gas station dump station, no water. The caretaker is so sweet, if you are on the receiving end of sweet and unknowlegeable, it is just a bad night. Huge gravel parking lot, utilities are the wierdest placement in 10 yrs of rving. You will probably need extensions and the sewer is above ground of the units. Have fun with that when it is 98. Big discussion about the restaurant and when it opened, according to google and the caretaker, it was to be opened. Walked a mile in the heat only to find it closed. Watched dozens of rvs pull in and leave, wish that would have been an option for me.

We stopped for one night on our way to yellow stone. Pay by cash of check to the caretaker. Nice older man, he will tell you where to park. Wifi is awesome, it's the county events center so there is a giant wifi tower in the middle. Would stay here again if pass g through. City has all the necessary spots if you need anything. Other than that does not seem like the town has much. Has showers and restrooms did not use them so not sure if they were open.
