Foote Public Access Area Dispersed

Road in is an easy drive. I didn't have any clearance issues in a Prius. 🥰 Right fork: The coordinates will take you to a day use only area great for fishing from the river bank. Left fork: At the fork, go left for a little place for two parties to camp. There's a vault toilet at the entrance. No open fires or portable water. Very secluded and quiet.

Definitely only room for maybe 2

The app was also showing at least some bars for Verizon but it’s definitely SOS land

Had to turn around. Looks nice if you’re lucky enough to get a spot

This is a primitive camping spot with 3 to maybe 5 sites if you are pushing it. Free, with pit toilet. Close to the N Platte, probably good fishing much of the year. I saw a mink and an eagle while there.

Camp at designated sites only. There are no numbered spaces, just small round a bouts and pull offs to pull into. About 6 vehicles is max for this site. Pit toilet located here. The river view is beautiful but bring big spray as mosquitoes are here to share the space as well.

Ehh it’s alright. Next to the Platte river and some farms. Bring your bug spray, mosquitoes are relentless. Our poor dogs were getting bit all over.

Stopped here on my way through. Got here around 3pm only 2 other people. Only a few spots are larger for 5th wheels etc. road was pretty bumpy coming down, you pass a few farms and a lot of private property which can be confusing. Boat launch doesn’t allow camping, camping is right around the bend. Right next to the river and absolutely beautiful. NO OPEN FIRES. Close to houses, secluded but not entirely out in nature by yourself. Would definitely camp again! Easy to find, good Verizon cell reception. Quiet spot.

It was a nice area next to the river. Some tall grass but that wasn’t much a bother. I had no issues with mosquitoes. There are ground toilets, I do recommend packing in your own toilet paper because there was none while I was there. Several other people were camping nearby with no problems. It is next to a farm, which meant various wild and farm animal noises all night which kept me on my toes.

Video is of some of the noises going on throughout the night

this was our second choice for a camp site, our 1st was the bridge upstream, and it was so grown up with weed there was no place to put a tent

The mosquitoes here are something fierce but it’s a nice site other than that. There’s room for probably five vehicles and waterfront is pretty. Ground toilets. But wow, the mosquitoes make it unbearable.

This place is down a long dirt ride through private property so be kind and mind the hours. When you get to the end, take the right fork and you’ll find two, rather close together, camping areas. When nobody is here it’s wonderful - right next to a creek, dogs can run around, and it is so very quiet and secluded. If I’m ever in Wyoming I’ll head back to this little spot.

There’s also a boat ramp, and I imagine if you fish, the creek would be a nice little spot to fish.

A few sandy campsites by the Platte River - had we gotten there earlier, we could have parked on the river's rocky shore. Someone beat us to it though!

There are actually two separate camping areas of this access - when you get to the fork, there are sites in either direction. Both are denoted with the Foote Public Access area signs, so you know you found it. There was also a boat ramp. I am not familiar with this section of the Platte, but I would imagine fishing and hunting are probably great activities if you're staying here for a few days. Wildlife appeared abundant in September - luckily, mosquitos and flies were not!

It is a road through private land, which is relatively well maintained, but please respect private property. Also be aware of current fire restrictions - there are no fire rings here, and open fires are not permitted. A firepan or fuel-based cooking system would be good to have.

This tiny dispersed site is on the North Platte River with boat access and a few weedy, private sites spread out in this area tucked inside private property. Since you have to drive over private property to get here, be mindful of speed on the dirt access road and clean up after yourself. I did not camp here as all of the sites were taken but I did visit with a couple traveling from Canada. They liked how quiet it was and loved how secluded it was. They said the mosquitoes were horrific, but worth dealing with to camp in such a great spot. Just up the road is the actual public access to the river, but in the campground there is a small boat ramp that you could use to launch a small boat or canoe. I'm keeping this one on my list for future reference- free, beautiful, and secluded. Hope I can get a spot in the future.
