Customer Reviews
Camp site was quiet, clean, with a creek running through the camp site and the campground was at the end of the road where past it requires 4X4 vehicles. As soon as the sun comes out it gets hot, however of you have a canopy, you will be comfortable in the shade. At night it cools down and feels really nice and you don't have to worry about being too cold in the month of July.
This was a pleasant surprise! The road takes you back off the highway quite a ways so that can be a little scary. But, the road was in good condition. I wish there were a few more signs early on to ensure we were going the right way. Beautiful area! Running water, amazing lighting on the surrounding mountains. Only about 12 sites. When we were there, only one other couple was camping.
Campground is 5.5 miles off Hwy 50, on a good gravel road. There are 6 to 7 campsites within the Big Creek Campground. Other cramping areas are available via boondocking. Campground has 2 vault toilets, no fee, most campsites are creekside. We camped Labor Day weekend, on Sunday 2021, had no problem find a site, by Monday everyone was gone, had Campground to ourselves. Quite, clean and in the canyon. We saw Jet fighters from Fallon air force base fly by at 9:30 am, cool/loud. Lots of Rabbit brush blooming, 🤧. In September
Very nice campground with great sites and views. Very well maintained and sometimes has live entertainment.
Nice campground, not very big, but good base camp for hitting the trails. Bring your off-road rides. Lots of trails to explore. Other places above the main campground to put up tents or good trailer with high clearance.
