Austin RV Park

Just off Highway 50 in central Nevada's mining country, Austin RV Park operates on the grounds of a Baptist church with 18 full-hookup sites arranged in tight quarters. The campground sits less than a mile from Austin's historic downtown, where travelers on the Loneliest Road in America find one of the few overnight stops with full services between major towns.

Sites pack closely together on a dusty surface, with some reviewers noting the challenge of achieving proper sewer flow due to sloped positioning. The hookups function reliably, and campers can access both older restroom facilities and shower areas that multiple visitors describe as clean despite showing wear. Road crews working on Highway 50 sometimes occupy several sites for extended stays. Cell service varies, and the compact layout means little privacy between neighboring RVs.

"Shower area clean but rough around the edges," notes Craig J., capturing the functional-but-basic character that defines this stop. The Pony Express RV Stop sits just down the road for those seeking alternatives. At $25-35 per night for full hookups, the park serves primarily as a convenient overnight base for Highway 50 travelers rather than a destination stay. Staff respond promptly to phone calls, and pets are welcome throughout the property.

A church-operated RV park offering affordable full hookups at $25-35/night. Several guests reported very tight spacing and challenging site conditions, though most found the hookups reliable and facilities clean despite being basic.

Ok site

The sites were close together, slope to back so it was hard to get the sewer to flow to the inlet, had to add blocks to back levelers to establish fall. Price was good for the site. Had a miscommunication with the camp operator so ended up only staying one night instead of two.

Rough and ready

Church parking lot packed in with RVs, several lived in by members of road crew working on main route through town. Dusty surface. Hook-ups fine. Shower area clean but rough around the edges. Convenient and cheap in the middle of Nevada. Did I mention that we were packed in like sardines? Staff available, responsive by return phone call, and friendly. All that said, the drive on Highway 50 through Nevada was austerely gorgeous, and we were happy to have hook-ups mid-state.
