Buffalo Bill State Park is a scenic destination located in northwest Wyoming, just east of Cody. The park features well-maintained campgrounds, including North Fork and Lake Shore, both offering stunning views of the surrounding mountains and water bodies. It is an excellent spot for stargazing, with dark skies away from city lights, perfect for observing celestial events. Amenities include picnic tables, fire pits, and access to fishing. Weather can be variable, so visitors should prepare for cooler temperatures and windy conditions. The park’s proximity to Yellowstone National Park makes it a great stopover for travelers heading west.
