About Miller Lake Dispersed Campground

Once a traditional campground with marked sites, Miller Lake has transformed into a true wilderness escape where adventurers can claim their own piece of untouched forest. This dispersed camping area invites you to pitch your tent wherever the landscape calls to you, offering an authentic back-to-nature experience without the constraints of designated spots, amenities, or crowds. Here, the absence of restrooms and running water isn't a drawback—it's your invitation to disconnect completely and immerse yourself in Wyoming's raw wilderness.
Miller Lake has transitioned into a dispersed camping area where visitors must bring their own supplies and expect minimal facilities.
