About

Holmes Campground is a small primitive campground situated in the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest in Albany County, Wyoming, near Rob Roy Reservoir at approximately 9,500 feet elevation. The campground is located in the Snowy Range area of the Laramie Ranger District. Historically, the campground reportedly offered 11 sites suitable for trailers under 22 feet, with basic amenities including picnic tables, vault toilets, fire grates, and drinking water. Trash service was not provided, requiring campers to pack out their garbage. Fishing access to Rob Roy Reservoir and Bear Creek was available nearby. The campground is not currently listed on official USFS recreation pages or recreation.gov, suggesting it may be closed or no longer maintained as an active campground. Campers seeking to camp in this area should consider nearby Rob Roy Campground, which offers 65 developed sites with vault toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and seasonal potable water.
