Boulder Lake

6 ReviewsAdd Review

Accessible via a 10-mile gravel road from Cora, Boulder Lake Campground sits at the end of Boulder Lake Road with 15 first-come, first-served sites priced at $7 per night ($3.50 with senior pass). The narrow campground loop accommodates both back-in and small pull-through sites, though Chris S. notes "tons of RV and horse trailers coming out" during busy periods. Larger RVs often opt for the dispersed camping area near the trailhead parking instead.

Sites feature fire rings, picnic tables, and bear storage boxes, with vault toilets available but no potable water or trash service. The campground sits between Boulder Lake and Boulder Creek, surrounded by aspens that provide natural screening between sites. Multiple hiking trails branch from the area, including routes into the Bridger Wilderness that lead to high alpine lakes for fishing and backpacking.

The campground serves as a staging point for both day hikers and overnight wilderness trips. Campers seeking additional options in the region can explore camping near Bridger National Forest for more developed facilities. Cell service remains unavailable, making this location suitable for those wanting to disconnect from digital distractions while accessing quality trout fishing and wilderness hiking opportunities.

Multiple campers commented on the scenic lakeside location with good hiking and fishing access. A common theme was appreciation for affordable pricing and basic amenities, though some noted road conditions and site wear.

Small and rundown

This CG sites at top of Boulder Lake by inlet. The CG has 15 sites, half back in half small pull thru. No reservations, all FF. However the CG loop road is crappy narrow, lumpy bumpy. Overhanging tree limbs, sites are so what worn out. No water, trash or cell signal. However it is cheap...$7/$3.50 senior. 14d limit. Note that there does seem to be free dispersed camping back out where the backpacker parking is in an open grassy area. Seems the locals park there in their larger TTs and RVs instead of trying to fit in the regular campground. There is also a grassy boat launch site there also. The Boulder campground was almost empty and the grassy open free dispersed area was packed, wonder why!!

This is not a campground

Whomever set this location was wrong! There is no access to the west end of the amazing Fremont Lake, and thusly, no campground. The previous reviewer is describing Boulder Lake nearby.

Great location

It’s about 10 miles up boulder lake road. Road in good condition, tons of RV and horse trailers coming out. Great location on the lake and campground on the creek. Multiple sites with fire pits and pull over grated. Sites also have bear locks and picnic tables. Restrooms available. Great hiking and fishing. So many high alpine lakes you could spend weeks hiking to new ones every day.

Peaceful sites between the lake and two trails

Gravel access road from the Boukder Wyoming area. Limited number of established sites in the formal campgound loop. Other folks camp near the Boulder Creek trailhead.

Pit toilets, gravel parking, trail map displays. Picnic tables and fire rings. Suited for tents and smaller RVs. Bigger RVs camp near the trailhead parking area.

The two trails up Boukder Creek and to Blueberry Lake go up into the Bridger Wilderness. Bring bear spray and fishing rods.

Boulder Lake

This is one of my favorite places close to home for camping. My family and I have been going here for years, since I was a little kid. It's a little desert oasis, we always have a great time. Great camp sites with near by trails and close access to the lake.
