Best RV Parks & Resorts near Baker, NV
RV parks near Baker provide access to Great Basin National Park with several established options. Whispering Elms Motel, Campground & RV Park offers full hookup sites with 30/50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections on primarily dirt and gravel surfaces. Border Inn Casino & RV Park, located at the Nevada-Utah line, maintains year-round operations with full hookup sites that accommodate larger rigs. Lower Lehman Campground inside Great Basin National Park has some RV-suitable sites but restricts vehicles over 24 feet on certain loops. Upper Lehman Creek Campground presents challenges for larger RVs with notably uneven parking pads. "The grounds are mostly dirt and weeds and the worst part about staying here was indeed the dust that got kicked up everywhere. The sites are kind of close together, but everything worked great."
Great Basin National Park's remote location requires thorough preparation for RV travelers. Cell service varies significantly throughout the region, with stronger signals at Border Inn (up to 7 MB/s on AT&T) compared to minimal coverage inside the park. A sanitary dump station is available at the park's visitor center, though no hookups exist at park campgrounds. Propane refills can be obtained at Valley View RV Park in Ely, approximately 70 miles from Baker. Summer temperatures at higher elevations remain comfortable while winter conditions often close mountain roads and campgrounds. Most RV parks accept reservations, though national park campgrounds operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Visitors should arrive with full tanks and supplies as Baker offers extremely limited services with no major grocery stores or RV supply shops within 60 miles.
