Best Dispersed Camping near Battle Mountain, NV

Free camping for up to three nights here and it’s beautiful! Lots of trails to hike around and a creek running through some of the spots. First come first serve but I got there late evening on a week day and was able to get a spot.

This wonderful 10 large spot free camp has a 9 hole disk course. The course has legit "tee pads" and manicured "greens" around each basket. But. .. the rest of the course is wild rough, I had to shoot for the 4' wide trail to avoid loosing my disks

This location reminded me of a county park. Maybe I'm jaded for spending too much time in the outback doing disperse camping. This reminded me of a lot of county parks in California. I looked at campsite 9 which was one of the better sites, and not much in the way of excitement came to mind. The creek was a minimal trickle, and lots of flies. It was hot and mucky and I decided to not camp out here and drive two hours north into Oregon and back to the wild. The positive about this location is the other campers who all wave when you drive by. That is nice hospitality.

We boondocked here for one night on our way home from a 12 day camping trip. It was a little hard to figure out where to camp at first; just follow the road up past the day use area which has a pavilion, parking and pit toilet. A little bit after that the sites begin. The sites are spread along the road, sometimes a single camp site and sometimes a couple of sites next to each other. It was dusk when we arrived and we actually didn't see the first couple of sites - we realized the next day on our way out that we'd driven right by. Then we saw some that were occupied. We ended up at site 8. It's large but quite uneven. It took us a bit to level out our A-frame pop up camper. It was gorgeous there. Surrounded by hills, Birch trees, and the stream running behind. Our site had a picnic table, fire pit, and BBQ area. The pit toilet and large garbage were just across from sites 8/9. The pit toilet is ADA, very clean, and didn't smell bad.

We would happily have spent a couple of more days here if we hadn't had to return home.

Heading south to Vegas from Bend OR and stopped in Winnemuka NV. This is. BLM managed spot. Free with fire pits tables and bathrooms. Most spots not level- but free! Good places for quick hike and saw several deer

Several dispersed campsite and pit toilets. Not too close to the neighbors. No problem for a Ram pulling a 30 foot travel trailer.

What an amazing camp site! Free, 3 nights, and by a creek. Unreal sunset. Super clean and sites are huge for big rigs (easy turn around)! Dirt road is an easy drive. We will absolutely be back!

Campsites are right on the main gravel road.  Maybe its COVID or maybe its just because its a free campsite, but there were cars going up and down the gravel road until very late and again early in the morning.  There were also several campers who appeared to be living out of their cars, no campers, no tents just lots of junk in junky cars.  Several guys felt that urinating beside the pit toilet was preferable, despite the toilet being clean and well stocked.

I did see antelope on the hillside and also had a late night visit by a skunk.

I was the only person there. Quiet. Secluded. You pass through a very nice upscale residential neighborhood to get here. Didn’t seem sketchy. No issues. Nice covered picnic area and fire pit. Good roads. No issues with an adventure van.

Nice level and spacious campsite with a covered cement picnic table and fire pit at campsite #1. Arrived during an amazing sunset and couldn’t believe it was both clean and available! Only concern was dog poo in the grass within 6 feet of the fire pit. People! Sign says 3 day limit.

Rolled in at night....got my pick of camp sites. Not too cold, but awesome morning view

Not too far from town which is good. Campgrounds are right next to a creek so you can get your feet a little wet. Each campsite is very large.

This was a handy stop over on the 80, easy access to campsites along a small stream. It’s just outside Winnemucca, which boasts a full range of services and stores such as Walmart. Will keep this location saved for future use when traveling through the area

This campsite felt like a little oasis after driving two days in the desert. The creek cools down the temperature a lot and the trees provide some relief from the scorching sun. There aren't very many sites, but they're fairly big and apart from each other.

This was a great pit stop on our trip from California to Idaho. It is free and first come, first served so get there early enough to snag a spot. Some spots are big enough for a few cars or vans to park, some big enough for RVs, most had spaces for a tent and every designated spot had a table. If you do get there and it’s full, there is space to get creative and find a neat spot off the main road. We stopped there for just one night and had a nice hike in the AM before leaving. It seems there is a lot you can do there! One dude looked like he was having a blast on his ATV. I think a dirt bike or a mountain bike would be lots of fun there too. Hiking was beautiful as you get a mixture of desert, cool rock formations, streams and beautiful aspen trees. We were there late October on a Tuesday and found the last designated spot around 6pm. Thankfully we didn’t need to pitch a tent because our spot was really slanted and small but it had a table, bbq pit and was next to a beautiful stream. We just parked our van and were happy campers. The limit on the sites are 3 days and your not too far from a grocery store. There are several bathrooms along the path, and a few dumpsters. I didn’t see showers and I found the bathroom to be disgusting but, hey, it’s camping. Drive slow as you pass campsites because it kicks up a ton of dust and pack out all your trash. I can’t say if the sites have spigots, our space didn’t. We were next to the stream so we gathered water, boiled it, and used that to wash dishes. We discarded all food scraps in trash bags and put in dumpster before leaving. I would not recommend washing dishes in the stream as it will affect the habitat. Lastly, star gazing is unbeatable out here. It’s worth checking out if you need a pit stop on your travels.

Really clean and well put together campgrounds. Has tables and fire pits around each site. There’s options between single camper sites to larger group sites. I stayed initially at a group site but realized some of the larger pull offs had people driving in during the day so I switched to a single campsite for more privacy. The only downside I have is that the sites are pretty close to the main road, but otherwise they are good.

Great campground in a surprisingly green area.  Sites are well layed out and sit right next to a small creek.  Nice play to stay when driving through Nevada.

3 pull out spots along the creek. Road is good enough for an RV. Barely an cell reception. Tons of mormon crickets. Some trash in the pull outs.

We enjoyed our one night stay. Just a short drive from town and up a dirt road it was easy to find. We had some cell service with Verizon. We camped in third pull out where the vault toilet is. There are a few trailheads further up the road which leads to some traffic on the road during the day. It looked like a few people have gotten stuck after recent snow but we had no troubles in my Subaru.

3 day limit, no water, pets allowed, dumpster, picnic tables, fire rings.
