Pretty nice campground with the reservoir, adjacent dirt roads, and closeness(yet not too close to the 50)
Stayed their for a night while going across Nevada. Nice views, pit toilets, tables, some sites have shade structures, metal fire pits, easy dirt road in.
There are cows and in my experience RVs left their generators running quite late were the cons if you consider those as such, but I really thought it was a good site.
Interesting history of the campground. Kilns are well preserved and accessible. The camping is close by. No amenities, water, electricity but fairly clean composting toilets in camp area. A few trails at the kiln site and some hiking at the campground.
Nice spacing with trees between sites. Partial view. Couple of accessible sites. Garbage, picnic tables, fire ring, bbq, metal roof over tables, clean pit toilets male and female. Couple nice trails over by the historic wood burning ovens. Nice stream meadows to experience
Sweeping view. Dispersed site adjacent to road 19631. Gulley behind with a road. No services. Great 5G AT&T. Rough hill up requires 4wd. Consistent shape. Close to junction down to gulley.
Full hookups, clean and neat grounds with a beautiful view. SXS trails too
This is my second stay this year. With Las Vegas temps reaching 115, This is a beautiful respite with highs in the mid 80s. Well kept camp sites are also a welcome bonus. Bring your own water. Super clean restrooms too.
Super clean with bathrooms, water, dump, bbq's, covered what else would you want for free!! White Pine County takes better care of their dirt roads than California does their highways!!!!
Nice quiet park just outside Ely. As usual with KOA, it was bit on the pricey side. They could have used some dust control on the gravel roads as well.
Overall, the place was clean and quiet, sites were level, and the front desk lady was so friendly! I only stopped here for one night, but would stop again if I was in the area.
If they get the dust under control, I would have left 5 stars.
Great off road free campground
We loved this spot for an overnight. We drove our 25’ RV up and found a perfect spot. It snowed over night and we woke up to a gorgeous sunrise. We navigated the gravel road just fine, even with light snow.
Located outside of Ely, but close enough if you need to run into town.
Staff was great, informed us about facilities and also map listed restaurants that deliver.
Hometown Pizza delivers to your site, good pizza.
They do inform you that by state law they have to have water pressure regulators on the water hookups so no need to add yours. (in Las Vegas at the KOA they had no idea what I was talking about but since we were within the city limits may not be needed).
Great view of the night sky after dark, dog parks are decent size, but by the time we got their our dog had found a spot on the roads.
Site pretty level, site and roads are gravel. Appears to be quite a few long term campers.
We were only there one night, but with everything if offers appears to be a place to stay for a week if so inclined.
Gets chilly at night, high altitude (close to 7,000 ft in elevation).
Been camped here for 10 days and has been a good place to be Not many camp sites along the 3 mile dirt road to get here Weather and sunsets have been awesome
A 4 mile gravel road mostly up hill. We drove our 25 ft class C without a problem. Many places to camp with minimal leveling. Great views of the terrible Kennecot Mine Scars!
It it about 3 miles on a dirt road to the trailhead. As you are approaching the trailhead, there are spur roads with some good turnouts to park. There were 3 other cars in the area overnight, but I felt I had the place to myself with the junior and pine providing shelter. I am not sure how a take would fit, but there are some turnouts for a small trailer. ATT cell coverage was decent.
I chose this campground as a stop over close to Highway 50 on our way to Utah from California.  It was a very nice little campground, very clean, and well-maintained. The host was very friendly as well. It was a nice area to walk around in. The only issue was the mosquitoes at dawn and dusk, but we took care of that by hanging out in our clamshell tent.
Eli koa has been great to us each we've been here, the managers went above and beyond for us. Thank you TJ see you all in October
Checking in was great, the staff was very friendly. Nice site level clean and spacious. They had plumbing issues with one of bath houses, the other one was close. Great last minute stop in the first snow of the year.
Considering Eureka is in the middle of nowhere this place is ideal. All gravel very beautiful surroundings.
Great for a stop over for sure. Folks here for the water (low) and ATV. A quiet night and can’t get better for free!
Juniper and pine. Loop B is far enough from the road that we didn’t hear the highway. Quiet, lots of space. Nice fire pits, grills, tables. No water. Great trails for hiking and biking.
Wonderful host, clean and quiet!
Very nice NPS campground. My 30' TT and 20' truck found ample back-in FF spaces. Mostly flat. Table, grill and prep counter in good shape. Space is composed of small rock. A separate spot for a tent or (?) which is also covered with small rock is adjacent. Pit toilets were clean. At this time, the area lacks culinary water, hence the one-star deduction. RV dumps located in Ely at gas stations. Some sites can be reserved. About an hour's drive to Great Basin N.P..
T-Mobile's signal was good.
If you gotta go KOA, the Ely NV is as good as they go. Clean rest rooms and helpful owners.
We were greeted at our car as we drove in. Help guide me in to a pull through site. Collected the fees and brought us the receipt. Site is clean and level. Although it is gravel it is not too deep for me to use my 4 wheel walker or cane. A wheelchair may be tough.
Nice folks, very helpful and facilities are very clean!
Typical KOA with large sites, although not much vegetation in between. Close to town. Surrounded by BLM land for lots of roaming. Nice staff.
Well maintained campground located near the Ward Oven historic site. Campsites are all level with shade canopies. Picnic tables, and BBQ. Some pull thrus that can accommodate larger trailers. Road in is 6 miles of good gravel. Water available but no electric or sewer. Lots of hiking trails and the Ward Ovens are interesting.
