It was beautiful and easy to get to, just recommend something a lil bigger than a sedan, it can make it, just kind of sketchy. Lots and lots of flies, keep that in mind, didn’t get a single bite but heard buzzing around our heads and near our food most of the time.
A little less privacy just because the open sites are pretty close to one another, just across the roads from each other, but enough privacy to feel comfortable, and it’s dispersed so remember there’s no facilities. Also states you can stay for 14 days.
ScoutDespite the misleading name of this place you don't have to be part of a reserved group to camp here! Plenty of small dirt roads with camping pull outs. Some of which have fire pits that can be used depending on the time of year. Some trash and some road noise but overall a great place to stay near Charleston!

Great
TravelerThis place is the best price and close to all the action in Armargosa Valley.
ScoutClean bathrooms, 10-15 degrees cooler than Vegas. Some trash left around campsites, but nothing disqualifying.
RangerFor just being under an hour outside of Las Vegas this campsite met our needs beautifully. It wasn't very crowded when we went in early March. Still had patches of snow on the ground.
TravelerGuadalupe's desert and a simple place to park.
ScoutHad an overall good experience camping here! Plenty of spaces, both big and small, with some far enough from the main road so you don’t hear traffic. Small pieces of trash left behind from other people here and there. Some hikes are located very close to camp as well.
Keep in mind that fires may not be allowed if a No Fire mandate is being enforced. Fire pits in this campsite will have a little yellow flag in them as a reminder as well as a large sign at the entrance to the camp stating the same. This does depend on the season or climate at the time you are going. Small propane stoves for cooking are still allowed nonetheless.
GuideI camped here this weekend for the first time. I have T-Mobile and was pleasantly surprised to have a bar or 2 of 4G LTE service. Most of Lee Canyon does not have any service. The sites were a little confusing to see where they were and some appeared to be in the middle of the road - but maybe that's the way group sites are laid out. I went to the end of the road towards the sawmill trailhead and found a great spot. There are more people here than Champion Road, both campers and hikers, runners and bikers. Also a fair amount of 4 wheelers. This place felt like a campground to me and less like dispersed camping. There are the cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen at the Sawmill Day use area. Overall, it was a great stay, with very clean sites, and cell service. I would definitely camp here again.
ScoutGreat area that is dispersed and isolated
LegendLots of open areas with flat grounds for tents and plenty of greenage between other spots and if you have 4 wheel drive you can go pretty much anywhere and find a neat camp spot. Great spot for RVs and Campers, the front spots do fill up quickly so make sure if you have a big RV you get there before the weekend if you need a spot. if you walk a mile or so to the spring mountain trail they do have bathrooms so take note of that if you like to be close to a bathroom. Check fire restrictions before going.
Legend
This is a private canyon that is only used by the park rangers and morning horse rides. Hence its name. It is blocked off by a gate but it can be accessed if you help with the Christmas Audubon bird count over the holidays.
There is a pit toilet and picnic areas with a flat ground area for tents. Not much flat parking space for RV’s and campervans though. There are also two fireplace areas and grills for cooking.
