Amazing spot for camping a few nights or even just an overnight adventure. About 35 mile outside of Las Vegas, and 30ish degrees cooler! Absolutely beautiful.

Heads up if you’ve recently had COVID: You may be more susceptible to altitude sickness at this elevation. My husband immediately had moderate symptoms once we hit around 8000 feet, so we weren’t able to stay more than 5 minutes last night. However, we stayed a night a month ago. We love the temperature there in the summer, and the views are beautiful. Our biggest complaints that trip were that we were unaware that firewood is only sold 20 minutes away from the campground (despite requirements to use “local” firewood) and the excessive quantity of flies in the vault toilets. It also got very windy 1 AM-6 AM, so we were glad we had our rain fly on to block some of it. I tried arriving 11:30 on a Friday for the first come first serve spots but they were already taken. I am really looking forward to camping there again but will likely only go if I have a reservation.

Las Vegas Local! This place was great! There were people around so we felt safe. Yet there was space so we had privacy. We saw a campground deer. The campground was clean and so were the bathrooms. We brought our dog. We used a tent and had a nice place to put it with a great view of the mountains and the valley. The grill was great cooked us up some hamburgers. We also used the firepit, and picnic table. I had not one complaint. Thank you!

No water no showers and the porta potties are horrible the worst I've ever been to. Hopefully she really needs to be fixed up. Go somewhere else.
