Angel Creek Campground

Beautiful location. Close enough to the highway to stay here on a road trip but far enough that the only sounds I noticed at night were the deer or elk in the area

Overnight stay

This is 6,200 foot elevation 8 miles outside Wells, Nevada. Peaceful camping in an aspen grove with fire pits, toilet, trash receptacle. If you’re a birder it’s got high desert birds, raptors. I saw my first Lewis’s woodpecker, watched a Harrier hunting, a flock of soaring, bug eating Common Nighthawks, deer everywhere. Stunning views of the terrain. Designated tent pitching squares, kinda rocky but fine with a protective footprint. 


awesome!

Stunning view of the Ruby Mountains from the campground. Both loops have easy access to the vault toilets and dumpsters. There is water at the main entrance but it’s a hand pump. The only drawbacks are that the sites are not very level and it would be difficult to get a rig longer than 30 feet into most of the sites. 

Beautiful Scenery and Quiet

Quiet campground tucked away in some aspen trees. Definitely a good get away

Aspen Trees!

A little off the beaten path. Quite steep road, beware!
Amazing views!

Great views!

Pretty wildflowers, $17 per night, the site said it was all first come first served but some people there said they had reserved in advance.  There were still sites available until about 7pm on a Friday night.  Pretty close together, not much privacy.
