Summary
Reservations are recommended via ReserveAmerica; fees are around $20/night. The campground includes flush toilets, potable water, fire rings, grills, and picnic tables. RVs are welcome (max 35 ft) but there are no hookups. Nestled in a scenic canyon with lush greenery, red rock walls, and a natural spring, the park provides a peaceful, semi-oasis vibe uncommon in Nevada’s desert. Hike the Overlook or Canyon Trails, or visit nearby Cathedral Gorge. Spring and fall offer the best weather. It’s a quiet, family-friendly base for exploring eastern Nevada.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
