Best RV Parks & Resorts near Hawthorne, NV

Stopped for one night of a 4 week cross country trip. The staff were friendly and helpful with local information. The sites are full hookups, 30 & 50 amp electric, concrete pads (not entirely level), grass areas and trees. They have clean showers and bathrooms, and cable tv. There is WiFi, but it is very slow. It isn’t strong enough for the number of people trying to use it. After midnight it was better. They also have a “dog area” which is just a sandy area near the office, right in busy US 95, but it’s not fenced in! I would not let my dogs run there. The bathroom/shower code did not work in the evening and there was no one in the office to get it corrected.

Besides the beautiful scenic lake spot that offers fun on the lake during the day and star gazing at night it’s a well ran campground with amentities. Has lots of camping style options between RV hook up spaces and non hookup. Also has tent spots. Great restrooms and showers. Moms with babies and toddlers would appreciate the restrooms. Showers are their own private room with space and a changing table. Camping spots are roomy and come with a fire pit. Campfires are allowed. Generators in RVs have to be off at 10 pm. Pets are allowed but need to be on a leash. Grass area for kids playing or throwing the ball or frisbee. Horse shoe game area. Big lake side beach. You can set up badminton or beach volleyball. Cell service is spotty at the campsite but oddly great on the beach and at the Lake.

Lake offers boating, fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking, jet skiing, and swimming. Boat launch and fish cleaning are a good distance from camp sites. Has a cleaning station for watercraft for invasive species.

This campground has a lot to offer. Pack the sun screen and the life jackets and have fun!

Campground was empty weekdays, then packed for the weekend. Lots to do even if you don’t have an OHV. Free Shooting range, Five Stand skeet/trap shooting, River access for fishing and swimming, golfing in the tumbleweeds, horseshoe pits, access from campground to OHV trails. The bar and swimming pool were closed during the week, but opened on weekends due to the pandemic. Dog friendly. Staff available by phone and very responsive to questions and requests. Can’t wait to return during normal times for the full experience, but overall a peaceful and relaxing trip. Grounds were clean and well kept. An oasis in the middle of nowhere!

Lots of spaces here with picnic tables and hard top awnings to give you some shade. Stopped here on a Tuesday for an overnight and it was very smoky due to the fires in Cali but there was a nice breeze and we still enjoyed the little bit of Mountain View that you could see from the sites. It was 90 degrees F when we arrived on September 16th around 4:30 pm and around 6 pm the breeze started to pick up so it was very comfortable. There is a fee station but there were no envelopes, no way to pay so I think normally it is 6$ but we couldn’t figure out how to pay. We’d definitely return here when the smoke dissipates. Several pull thru sites. We have a 26 foot tr with a Ford F-150. Gravel road, picnic tables and fire pits available. Some restrooms were closed. Sites are gravel and dirt so you will likely need to level.
