Boulder Beach Campground — Lake Mead National Recreation Area

Lake Mead camping

We picked this campground for its proximity to a friend’s home in Lake Las Vegas; we enjoyed dinner with them and then headed to the campground (in the dark) for the evening. 

For quite some time, there had been no sites reserved at all but when we took a closer look at it several weeks before our stay, we found that all the best sites had already been snatched up! IMO, the best sites are D77, 79, 81, 83, 85, and 87 (for the best views of the lake). Site D65 had a sideways view of the lake and was on the end of the loop (so there was some traffic passing by). 

All sites were paved/concrete and mostly level. Sites were all in good condition. Many are back-to-back compromising privacy to a degree. A large concrete picnic table and fire ring complete each site. No hookups at all. 

The restrooms were basic but clean. No hooks, shelves, paper towels or hand dryers, or SOAP but for $10 (with the senior pass) I’m not going to complain too loudly. There is a dump station. It looks like there is a swimming beach, but I did not check it out. 

Overall, a very quiet campground(despite some generator use).
