Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Battle Mountain, NV

Take 305 south from Battle Mountain 20 miles. You’ll see the Mill Creek Recreation Area sign and turn left/ East. When you get to the stop sign, turn right. A couple of miles further and you’ll veer right at the entrance to the park. There are a number of level campsites near the creek, with BBQ and fire pits. There are two bathrooms, one on each end of the park. We were here on a Thursday in November and only one other camper in the park. For dark sky enthusiasts, this place is awesome. No services.

I love the ability to come in and pick a spot and pay in the morning. It was so easy and convenient especially being the closest place. Loved i didn’t have to get online or talk to anyone at an office. They are VERY organized with arrows, labels, and instructions. Highly recommend. And yes, everyone raves about the dog park but i don’t have pets but it was really big.

Large RV park. All sites are paved and level. Trees in between sites are young so not much privacy. Clean. Dog park. Laundry.

Right off Hwy 80. Quiet, spaces for very large rigs and a full service restaurant on site (Wingers) that has some vegan options. The dog park is all gravel and the pups didn’t like it too much.

Nice quiet location near Battle Mountain to rest for the night and enjoy really beautiful night sky. Our experience was very quiet with only three other people there. The creek is mostly dried out but provides a nice ambient noise. Really clean restrooms but not much else to do.

Please read fully so you know. It was definitely a cute spot. stopped here from our trip from Indiana going to California. THERE WAS SELF CHECK IN WHICH WAS SUPER Convenient because we got in at 1130 pm & checked out at 8 am. I do really like the spot, the electric worked fine. It was a VERY quiet spot. But there is a lot of people parked, but you don’t really see them. There’s some swings & a basketball hoop. I would probably stay again. Only downfalls, the dog park & the showers. The dark run is HUGE but it isn’t that secure, there’s spaces under the park which dogs can easily slide under. But it is a very big dog run. The showers, they do cost money which kinda sucks when you are paying for a spot. But I’m not mad about it. For the complaints about the staff, I had no problem with the man in the office, but boyfriend & I talked to him because he stopped us & he was very nice.

Nice for middle of desert. All asphalt and gravel. A few patches of grass that you a supposed to stay off of. Not so friendly for pets. But...park is well maintained, clean and plenty of nice showers and laundry. Good overnight stop.

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.

Easily accessible from I-80 in Winnemucca, Nevada. I was greeted with friendly service & a cute dog at check-in (immediate WIN in my book).

Check-in was quick, and the facilities were quiet & very clean.

It was a nice place to stop driving from California to Idaho.

This place is well maintained - spaces are a little close but not bad. Gravel, few trees. There’s a HUGE dog run that’s really nice. I was surprised that the showers were coin operated.

Called ahead, but that was not necessary. The reviews say it all. Pull in, do self check in. Great pull thru spots. Plenty long 90 ft! and wide. Fenced dog area was a very big plus!

We pulled off I 80 at around 7:30 on a Friday night, we found the last open site out of 13 official sites. They are first come first serve. A few other people pulled up later and just slept in their cars down the road.

We had a few dogs with no issues. The tent spot was a little sloped but not too bad.

The sites have picnic tables and a firepit and grill area.

Next time we will get there earlier to have more options for available sites.

The nicest RV park on our trip from Connecticut to Nevada! Clean and modern with paved streets, nicely spaced with mature trees (something you don’t often find in the desert!). Located behind a small casino that has a restaurant, and only $40.00 per night. You won’t find anything better on I 80 in Nevada!

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.

Perfect place for an overnight rest on the way through Nevada. Only about 4 miles off of NV 305 on a well graded gravel road. Vault toilets, picnic tables, fire pits all in good condition. Oh, and a little babbling brook running behind the sites to whisper you to sleep.

This campground rates a 4.0 I give it four stars because it will be a welcome Haven and oasis after a 7-hour drive from Klamath falls Oregon to winnemucca Nevada We will be very happy to see it. it has clean reviews and I'm really banking on this being a winner

Located just around the corner from a full service (Def pumps) Maverick truck stop, this quiet RV Park is a convenient stop along I80. Pull into an open spot in the overnight section and then walk over to the office to fill out an envelope, deposit cash or a credit card slip (4% fee) and then hook up for the night.

The sewer, water, electricity and cable TV hookups are all in great working order in all the sites we saw. Wasn't busy the night we were here.

We are full-timers in a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow. We were in site 54 for one night in late May. The CG is very clean and well maintained. Although, the CG website says they don’t take reservations, as they always have spaces available, but there were only a couple open when we arrived. 

AT&T coverage was pretty good, ranging from 2-3 bars of 5G, with speeds up to 9 MB/s. Site 54 had access all 3 western DISH satellites.

Great place to stop for an overnight stay. All self-check in no staff when we were there. Good price for full hookups. Has super clean bathrooms with showers. Expensive $1.50 for 3 minutes, 50 cents for each additional minute. We chose not to use the showers at that rate.

First, the campground is geared towards rv"s and RTTs and trailers. Most of the sites are pull thru, with several back-in. Normal tent camping wont work.

The facility was clean and welcoming. However, couple bones of contention kept me from giving it 5 stars, here's why:

1. If you are in a RTT, there is a lot of light in parking lot. The back in locales are right near office, so street lights, cars pulling in, etc.
2. The two bathrooms were amazingly clean. However...YOU MUST PAY SEPARATELY TO USE SHOWER! 1.50 to start, and a quarter each additional minute.
3. No change machine!!! Good thing I had 2.00 in quarters, and I take fast showers!
4. The back in spots are near the dumpsters...so you get an occassional whiff of garbage.
5. Union Pacific main tracks are about 2 or 3 blocks from the locale, and the sound the whistle all night.
