Come enjoy the peace and quiet of nature when you stay in this unique place. Local Deer and fox roaming the area if you are lucky to see them. Wake up to a gorgeous mountain/valley view , BBQ during the day and enjoy smore's with the firepit at night. Miles of hiking right off the property and in the surrounding areas.
There are virtually no neighbors. You will feel as though you have the entire valley to yourself!
4-wheel drive highly recommended as it is off-road/ off-grid driving. I have seen 2-wheel and Tesla's make it up there as well, you will need to be a confident driver.

Glamping Adventures— the name itself evokes images of luxury and customer-centric experiences. However, my recent interaction with this company has shattered any illusion of professionalism or integrity they might claim to possess. I booked a glamping experience with Glamping Adventures, enticed by their promises of unique stays and excellent customer service. Little did I know, this would be the beginning of a frustrating and deceitful ordeal. Initially, everything seemed promising. I made a reservation well in advance, excitedly anticipating a getaway that never materialized. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to cancel my reservation and was assured by Glamping Adventures that I would receive an almost full refund if they managed to find a replacement guest. Nef stated he was, indded, able to find a gust to take my spot. Here's where the nightmare began. What followed was outright negligence and disrespect for a paying customer. My subsequent emails were met with radio silence. It seemed as though Glamping Adventures had conveniently chosen to disappear rather than fulfill their promise or even communicate honestly. I have kept meticulous records of every interaction— emails detailing their refund policy, promises made and subsequently broken, and the growing frustration with their blatant disregard for customer satisfaction. These records serve as irrefutable evidence of Glamping Adventures' unprofessionalism and lack of respect for their customers. In conclusion, if you value your time, money, and sanity, steer clear of Glamping Adventures. Their enticing promises of a luxurious outdoor experience are nothing but a façade for poor business practices and outright dishonesty. The charm of glamping is tarnished when the company behind it fails to uphold basic standards of customer service and transparency. I urge potential customers to learn from my unfortunate experience and choose a reputable company that values its patrons. Glamping Adventures has lost not only a customer but any semblance of credibility they might have once had.
Lots of room too spread out. Great views!!!
We stayed here 30 days at half price because we have a senior park pass.
Hello this is the owner/property manager. This geodesic dome is great for the off road/ off grid adventurer. We provide cooking supplies, fun games, and the most gorgeous hilltop view in the canyon.
As an alternative to the NPS campground across the road, this mobile home park has some full hookup RV spots in the rear of the mobile home park next to the laundry/restrooms. Note that the restrooms/showers are closed but laundry is open. Office staff said campers from the NPS campground can use the laundry. Cost for RV as of Feb 2022 was only $29.38 for full hookups. Only about 9-10 sites are available for RVs and reservations are required either online or in the office upstairs at the Callville Bay Store. No tents, no open fires, no wifi. However, cell signal is very good on Verizon, TMobile and ATT due to the cell antennas by the NPS water tanks above the NPS campground.
This campground is very quite but seems to have smaller sites than others. When entering there are few spots to accommodate bigger trailers although some spots you can see where the site has been extended into the dirt. I like the no generator section as it is super quite at night. Quite time starts at 10pm in other sections.
Great experience. I arrived late at night and was still able to check in with a pay stub. Even though it’s mid/late November the weather was great! Just take a cool weather sleeping bag and you’ll be good.
This campground is reservable 15 days in advance, but if you missed that deadline, there is first come-first serve camping as well. There were many spots open when I came. When you get here, scout for a spot, remember your site number and license plate info, and then go back to pay at the pay stub center (at the entrance of the campground).
Its $20 a night to camp here. BRING CASH! :)
No showers, just bathrooms.
There is no water but they are kept clean.
A lot of spots but just enough privacy for your spot.
A beautiful view!
Good Campground 30-40 mins outside of Vegas. Pretty steep drive up the hill to the campground, but views are great. Hiking trails nearby. Only downside was that pavement was not flat for sleeping in the RV
This campsite is about 10 miles from the Boulder Campground and RV Village. All sites has prefect views of the surrounding mountains. All sites that are situated on the outer rim of the campground, be weary. Most have a good steep decline not to far away from the pavement. I would just be a little careful with kids or dogs. One section does not allow generators. They do have an on site dump station for rigs. No hookups though.
We loved this campsite, super clean and had a lot of privacy and room. We got lucky and snagged one of the last spots when we arrived around 5:30 PM on a Thursday.
Finally, got into this campground today. It has been closed for sometime. This campground is for groups only and by reservation, no FCFS. They did an amazing job getting this place set up. Multiple large group sites, each with water spots. All spots have great views of the surrounding area. All sites can accommodate at least 6-10 vehicles. This site is close to the wonderful Desert Overlook Trail.
Stayed two nights with a few friends and we had two campsites next to each other. Because one of my friends brought a huge tent for just her and her daughter, my wife and I moved our tent off the main section of where you are supposed to place your tent. After we got set up and in the middle of making dinner for everyone, the host comes up and makes us move our tent… we were only a few feet away from the designated tent spot. We had the only two sites in a curve, so no other campsites where around. He sees my obviously pregnant wife by our tent and continues to tell us to move, and didn't even give us time to assist with making dinner. There was a total of 6 of us with 2 kids between 2 campsites. He ended up calling the LVMPD on us for being too loud at 7pm. Metro saw 2 kids and 4 adults and one who was pregnant and sided with us. He saw we weren't being loud and said he would talk to the host. This spot is one of my favorites in Mt. Charleston but the host is not great. Not sure what the issue really was, as hardly any of the sites were occupied. Would not recommend pulling a trailer around this site, there are two extremely tight turns. All tent campers except for one pop up pull trailer that was about 10 feet long.
The sites are a first come first served basis. There are paved parking pads, concrete table, bbq grill, and fire rings at each site. View of a canyon stream, some coyotes heard at night. There is a restroom with flushable toilets that are clean. There is a free dump station. Rates are $20 per night, $10 for senior or access pass holders.
Our first night we had extremely loud neighbors and were disappointed the camp host did not shut the party down through 2am. That aside, the sites are very clean and level and the views are incredible. Plenty of shade trees to string a hammock. Bring your own water or fill up at lee canyon campsite (20 minutes down the road) for free. High altitude, does get quite chilly at night.
Great campground, each campsite had a table and grill. Bathrooms were clean.
There are bathrooms with toilets and sinks. The sites are a little close together but the views on the outside sites facing the water are incredible. Spectacular views of the stream. The campground host is also very nice. There are trails at one of the campground that are fun to walk.
I saw a coyote in the campground one morning but he ran away when I stood up. The last time I camped here, someone had a dog that they didn't leash and he kept running into my campground so that was annoying because my dog is afraid of other dogs and we ended up not staying the night because of that.
it's a little way to the water but it's central for all your exploring needs.
Clean bathrooms and paved roads perfect for bike riding.
oleanders trees separate your neighbors
each spot has tables and fire rings.
nice size spots for you to park at.
boulder beach is about a 15-minute drive from here and government wash is about 20.
lake las vegas is about 10 minutes
the strip is about 30 mins
lost to explore for sure
if you don't have a nation rec pass be ready to pay to get in.
We arrived with our 36 foot class a motorhome and we’re not sure if there was room. Met by the camp host or some very nice employee and told us which spaces we could pull it into. Was very quiet not a whole lot of people. No hook ups water nearby but a great place to relax and explore Lake Mead. The fee is $20 per night and with the senior citizen discount only $10 per night.
In my travels I would for sure say this camp ground is for the folks not worried about the lake or have a boat they need to launch. They do rent at the marina but it’s advised you reserve because pickings are slim to none. Besides that this is A really nice camp ground with picnic table, fire rings and bathrooms that are spotless. Bring your own soap and towel to dry your hands they do not provide. This spot is reservable and paved.
It’s still not open hopefully in the next month or so but it’s totally remodeled and have epic views. It’s reservable and perfect for large groups or small. They have bathrooms, tables and fire rings.
Here are my star ratings based on my lifestyle and what I like. I'm also a mother, dog mama, and a wife so it's not just me it's my crew and i. 1 star- AUTOMATIC relocate… the property is no longer there, trashed or/and I could never have my children there and I wouldn't ever think about staying no matter what. 2 star- Not really my jam, and would NEVER go to again… It probably more of desert life and not really my style for sure…Being from Vegas I can't stand being in the desert and I love the Trees and the Green more than anything. 3 star- Would stay there again in a pinch, but not really my style, the reason its not is because not enough family things to do, the scenery, or the location… but I would go again and feel safe having my kiddos here but only if I needed to in a pinch. 4 star- a really good rating for sure, maybe needed some improvements, minor things like being on top of each other, not a lot of privacy, but honestly little cosmetic things that aren't anything to sweat and would be back again for sure. 5 star- MY FAVORITE… love the location, safety, the surroundings, big camp spots available to fit toys for my kids to play, hammocks to hang, our big family tent, cases of firewood, our suburban or RV, etcccccc….. I would not only come back but would live if I could!!! Anyway thanks for reading and enjoy every moment like it's your last! CHEERS!
Currently they are not open yet after remodeling but the ranger said they should be opening hopefully this year since they were set back do to covid. I’ll go back in a few weeks to check when they will be opening but from what I heard stunning as can be.

Currently, it’s a perfect time to come check out MNT. Charleston, ’s not crowded and the weather is perfect. This area is day-use only as of right now. The rangers are not sure when it will Be open for the camping season but this is also a campground not just day use so make sure you check that it’s open for camping. It’s all first come first serve and it’s the cheapest place on the mountain when it is open for camping. The ranger said April or may they will open but not sure on a date yet. 12 during the week and 18-weekend prices. If you have a big spot I recommend the double spots, all spots are great for RVs no hook-ups but they have tables, grills, and fire rings. Super nice camp host bob who is there and super helpful. Keep enjoying nature and taking care of her along the way! Cheers… oh one more thing your about a hundred feet from the main road. So try to pick your spot closest to the mountain.

Free dump station and potable water. Dispersed spaces asphalt pads, concrete picnic tables, fire rings and gorgeous views. What more can we ask? It’s quiet except for the birds. Quail are everywhere. Close to the water and it’s peacefully quiet.
This is by far the best national Park campground we have stayed at. They have planted lots of trees in the campground for shade in the middle of the desert. So from the highway you come in at, it looks like a little oasis in the middle of the desert. We arrived on Wednesday and had about 3/4 of the campground to choose from. There were fire rings, picnic tables, and a trash dumpster, plus clean restrooms. There is a dump station and also fresh water to fill your freshwater tank. No hook ups, so bring everything you need. Highly recommended!
I’m surprised no one else was here. I decided to camp here and was the only one all night. People were in the area in the morning but everyone left at night. Highly recommended. Very nice spot to kayak.
We love camping at Las Vegas Bay campground at Lake Mead. The campground is very close to the wash that comes from Lake Las Vegas. Lots of wildlife!! Sites are small. RVs larger than 31 ft will have a hard time fitting. This is dry camp only. No hookups or dump station. Portable water is available. Sites are well developed.
