Our quaint cozy Mini Motel is a space we are very proud of. It was created many many years ago to house the workers that were building Route 66. Historic charm is always a plus in my book. So we decided to perk it up a few notches and remodel it.
Each room is equipped with its own vanity area, sink, bathroom with shower & tub, closet space and beds with 3″ gel memory foam for a comfortable nights sleep.
If you need to heat something up there are microwaves in each room, as well as a desk area & chair, dresser, TV and blackout drapes. There really is nothing missing for you.! Also, in our Route 66 room we have a mini fridge. So if you might need a fridge, maybe for a longer stay, be sure to request the Route 66 room.
My most favorite about each room is that you can actually be in bed and see the west rim of the Grand Wash.! Its a site you need to see for your self!
$18 - $95 / night

Dark, quiet, flat and easy to get to
TravelerA great spot before visiting Valley of Fire. Leveled, gravel, Fire pits. On the other hand, busy all year round with people running their generators all night, be aware.
Scout
Beautiful scenery but under flight path for airport and motorcycles up early on weekend.
Guide
Numerous spots although quite busy. Lots of cars driving around. Our Class B van had no problems but we did not venture out too far. Very spotty cell signal. Great view of lake Mead and mountains. The sunset was incredible!
GuideWe stayed for one night, loads of space, fairly level as well. Just a little bit off the road and really quiet.
TravelerI spent 3 days and nights here at Kingman Wash in August and was nude the entire time. There were several other people camping there who were nude as well, and any neighbors nearby weren't really all that near at all and they didn't seem to mind. I did some nude hiking and spent most of the time just enjoying the area. It was hot here, but it was not uncomfortable when nude. ;) I love the Lake Mead area and I love the fact that nudity seems to be fairly common and accepted on the lake and the surrounding area. The burrows were a very welcome plus that added to the enjoyment of the trip. I'll definitely be back.
Traveler
I've spent a few all nude days here while traveling to various other locations in the area. (I'm just now getting around to publishing some reviews of those). I found that this place was ok for a few days' stay. Not too crowded and like other boondocking places in the area, my neighbors were not too close and didn't seem to mind if I was nude all the time. I was happy to see that several of them were nude the entire time as well. That fortunately seems to be quite normal for the entire Lake Mead area (which is why I spend so much time there). I'll be back soon.
Guide
A very short but kind of rough road right off of Valley of Fire Hwy less than two miles from the Parks north entrance. Free boondocking with no amenities. Follow the road and find your spot! You can see the traffic going to and from the park, but it is not a nuisance. The park is technically closed from sunset to sunrise so the only traffic is the occasional camper, arriving at the campground within the park. There are so many trails and points of interest to visit inside and outside the park. I highly recommend paying the price to drive through the park and then through the Lake Mead national recreation area into Henderson, Nevada near Las Vegas. The road along Lake Mead is as beautiful as Valley of Fire is!
TravelerNice, quiet, flat areas that are perfect for big rigs. 14 day limit. Road coming in a tad bumpy but not horrible if you take your time. Beautiful view of the Lake! Will come back here for sure.
GuideAccess to lake mead, plenty of little pull offs scattered throughout a small valley to set up camp in, a vault toilet, and a herd of Burros roaming around. Incredible views of lake mead and the surrounding elevation! Road was gravel and decently accessible for my van!
GuideThis area is amazing Between the rocks, the lake, the burros, the vault toilets, and the open space it’s beautiful!!! The burros are NOT wild 😂 & they get into everything. But we loved it. It definitely is a bumpy drive and I would not recommend trying to take a large rv down the wash road. I brought my 5x8 converted cargo trailer down and would do it again, but it was rough.
Traveler
We loved it here, stayed the one night to break up the journey. The directions are great, and there are two sites here, we stayed in the second. It was nice and level. The views were beautiful, and having all the space and quiet to ourselves was magical. Didn't see any snakes or other critters.
TravelerVery close to the water. Very few people. Gorgeous scenery!. The road is a little rough getting a camper down there but they do have volted toilets.
Ranger
Went at the wrong time of year because it was very hot and we had no AC, yikes. The rocks retain all the daytime heat and then release that stored heat through the night.
At a better time of year, when it is cool, it would be a great place to visit, hike and explorer.
Guide
We absolutely love this place. Need reservations early. Well maintained. Too hot in summer.
Traveler
One of the most beautiful campgrounds ever. We had campground 8 and it was great. Very isolated and it had shade in the morning and evening. Unfortunately we only stayed a single night because the temperature was 108° during the day.
ScoutSeems like a beautiful setting but we ran into a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake within feet of the campsite. They are aggressive and fatal. We left to go find somewhere else. Be careful.
GuideWhat a magical night spent surrounded by red rock. We stayed in campsite 21 from a previous reviewer and it was amazing. Gorgeous scenery and rams walking around. There was some toilets at the entrance, hot showers available for free at neighboring campsite. We had absolutely no phone service here. Private picnic table with cover and fire pit for each site. Definitely a must visit but be prepared for the heat and sand!
ScoutPerfect out of grid compert tu vegas xd
Guide
Convenient and safe parking for any size RV with power and water connection, dump station. Manager was very friendly shared lots of useful information. All equipment in a good condition!
Scout
I want to know if there is a camping gear rental service there? We want to ride a motorbike there slope game
TravelerGreat little spot to stop on the way. Far enought from main road. Fantastic sky at night.
GuideThis entire region is breathtakingly beautiful. The campground is small with a pit toilet at one end. My large, private spot backed up to spectacular rock formations. There was water at the site, but no electric. The dump station was located as you exited the campground and perfect for my needs. Absolutely loved it there. My dog and I were greeted by a pair of bighorn sheep that hung around the area the entire time we were there. Absolutely loved it.
TravelerVery windy, but large area so tons of room to spread out and camp. We drove closer to the water in our awd car
Scout
This campground is the worse in lake mead rec area! Nothing has been done, no lights in the bathroom half the toilets are half functional, the guys who drives around in his canam is always drunk an shirtless claims he is the maitance man for the area,
If you have children I do not recommend camping here better places for the same price. Las vagas bay! The parks service is a disgrace when it comes to keeping echo bay up to date will never return for my children to be exposed to drunk park employee,
The store is over priced an misleading as the sign says showers but you must stay at the rv park for those amenities this whole little campground is a joke! Most people don't even pay
ScoutThere’s a lake at the end of the sketchy road that makes it all worth while especially in the heat. Water is clear and plenty of space to park if you’re just there to visit. May feel too crammed if you have a camper though. I thoroughly enjoyed staying here for 2 nights.
ScoutThe two spots are about 1.5 miles off the highway on a dirt road, you'll see a spot off the right on a narrow trail. BLM property. Free-roaming cows, didn't bother us at all. Beautiful sunset on our nights stay. The second spot is just around the first corner after the first one, less used, but probably flatter. Could hear the highway, but wasn't bothersome.
