#375 off Extraterrestrial Highway, near Alamo, Nevada, is a unique camping spot that draws those looking for a bit of adventure and some stellar views. With a mix of tent and RV sites, it’s a great place to kick back and soak in the desert landscape.

This campground is all about the basics—there are fire rings for cozy evenings and a trash can to keep things tidy. While some visitors were surprised by the lack of showers and toilets, many appreciated the quiet atmosphere and the chance to disconnect from the hustle and bustle. One camper noted, “Very quiet at night, did some hiking around the area and lots of desert wildflowers and landscape.”

If you’re into stargazing, you’re in for a treat. The location is right near Area 51, and some campers have reported seeing strange aircraft in the night sky, adding a touch of the mysterious to your stay. The drive in might be a bit rocky, but it’s manageable, and once you’re there, you can pick your spot and settle in.

For those planning a trip, keep in mind that the nearest gas station is about 30 miles away, so fill up before you head out. Whether you’re looking for a quiet night under the stars or a chance to explore the surrounding wilderness, this campground offers a simple yet memorable experience.

Great place - no showers or toilets

The drive on 375 was decent road, all uphill but not bad. Great views. Drive back down was super easy! A bit disappointed as the app had said showers and toilets.

Hidden gem

It’s about a 2 and a half 3 hour drive outside of Vegas depending on how fast you’re going. If you drive past the sign, you missed it! You pull in off the highway and just pick a spot. I’ve been here 3 maybe 4 times. This is the first time I wasn’t alone, but there was enough distance between the sites that I didn’t mind it. There is a couple of fire rings and old picnic tables. No water hookups, bathrooms, or cell service. Nearest gas station is about 30 miles in either direction. The road in is a bit rocky, but not too bad.

Quiet spot off the highway

Drove in and veered to the right to a campground that had a firepit next to a juniper bush that provided some nice privacy. Very quiet at night, did some hiking around the area and lots of desert wildflowers and landscape. Does have a trashcan but not much else. We had a 17ft sprinter van and accessed it with no problem. Lovely free campsite for the night.
