2011 President's Award
KOA President's Award
Awarded to KOAs that meet exceptional quality standards and are recognized by their guests for outstanding service.
Warm days, cool nights and a view of the soaring Uinta Mountains make this quiet grassy meadow an inviting spot to camp.
Warm days, cool nights and a view of the soaring Uinta Mountains make this quiet grassy meadow an inviting spot to camp. And when you spend a night, you're joining a steady parade of travelers who've stopped here since mountain man Jim Bridger built his trading post along the Oregon and Mormon trails in 1843. The Lyman KOA is a short drive from the re-created post (some original buildings) of Fort Bridger State Historic Site. Visit Labor Day weekend to catch the Mountain Man Rendezvous, complete with black powder and buckskins. You'll find plenty of comforts at the campground, including a pool, a game room, basketball, sand volleyball and a pet walk. When you're ready for more adventures, drive an hour east to 91-mile-long Flaming Gorge Reservoir for great boating and fishing plus hiking and biking along mountain trails.
Meet Your Hosts
When Mary and S. Clark Anderson purchased a hay meadow near Lyman in the 1960s, they thought the land would be better for growing kids than hay. The former teacher and drive-in operator were right.
All 11 of their children have worked at the campground that they opened in the former hay field in 1968. In fact, all 11 are college graduates and son Clint still comes home in the summers from his teaching job in Nephi, Utah, to help manage the campground.
"I liked the concept of owning a KOA campground, and I wanted something where I could have my family involved," said Mary.
The campground has grown along with the Anderson family, You'll find plenty of grass and mature shade trees - sometimes hard to find in Wyoming. And be sure to take advantage of the clean, warm swimming pool, too.
