CAMPGROUND AND TOUR REVIEWS

Great tour with great hosts that are very knowledgeable about the history of the ranch and surrounding area. I highly recommend this to anyone traveling through the area.

We recently were on a road trip to the US planning places to camp and spend time and tour. After spending 4 nights in the Black Hills we were planning a drive to Teton/Yellowstone. We are avid watchers of “The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch” so googling the extra distance we had to go! So we booked a site at UFO Valley Campground. If anyone has any knowledge of the Ranch, the history of the area or watches the show this is a MUST camping destination! The campground is super cool and you’re so close to the Ranch. The night we stayed we did see some activity from the ranch with a rocket and drone. Also seen a few “streamers” in the night sky. While there the 2 hour tour of the Mesa is also a MUST!! The knowledge that Jodi has of the area and background of the Ranch was so informative being her husband Stacy and family have been there for generations! It was super cool being on the Mesa and being able to see the past activities as well as the Ranch. Thank you so much to our host, Jodi and Stacy for an amazing stay!!!

This campground is awesome and the hosts are incredible. Beautiful at night here. My UTV tour with Jodi was so fun! As a bonus they had 2 week old baby goats to love on - so cute! Wish I could've stayed longer.

UFO Valley campground is a unique experience. The host Jodi and Staci are wonderful hosts and make you feel right at home they have developed a wonderful boon docking experience for both RVs and tents providing smokeless fire pits, picnic tables, tiki lanterns and large sites all over looking the Skinwalker ranch. We were welcomed by Marshall a friendly cow dog and a herd of adorable goats - 15 baby goats and their herd - all so friendly. Our first evening was extremely cloudy and we went to bed pretty early so nothing interesting to report. Our first morning we meet several regulars to the campground and got a warm greeting and lots of great info about the area and activities in the sky ! At 9am we were picked up by Jodi and started our adventure to the mesa ! Jodi gives a fantastic and fun tour filled with great stories and insights from generations of stories from folks in the area. Jodi is very respectful of both the Ute population and the filming crew on the ranch. We were able to see most of the Skinwalker site we have become familiar with while watching the History channel show. The afternoon was spent doing a wonderful drive to Flaming Gorge - it’s a must see don’t miss Dowd mountain trail overlook ! That evening we enjoyed a great evening around the campfire with some regulars in the area and were pleasantly surprised with activity in the sky starting around 10pm! We saw several things we can’t explain - extraterrestrial? Maybe - but we had a blast talk discussing the possibilities. Forgot to mention another must-see excursion - McConkey petroglyphs wear your boots and enjoy a trip to the past imaging the hands that developed the art. Highly recommend the campground whether you are a fan of the show or not - great experience we are so glad we stopped by!

Camp at UFO Valley campground for a couple nights the host are super friendly. It’s a really cool place to camp. I would. I will definitely be back would highly recommend this place.
