"You can take that heat from Vegas and completely forget you are in Nevada when you travel just outside the city and to McWilliams Campground and Mount Charleston area."
"Really peaceful and walking distance to the Bristlecone trails. Besides an incredibly rude group of people who didn’t understand quiet hours we had a great time!"
$50 / night
"The dirt road takes you far out of the way and away from everything. Some of the sites are situated on the side of mountains so the views (especially at sunset) are breathtaking."
"As we SUV camp (and not 4x4) we didn't head a long way in, but discovered numerous locations that were easy to get to, but still secluded.
Very few cars, and a nice getaway."
"Got up there around 10:30-11:00am on Sunday. “Champion Road” is a decently maintained dirt/gravel road and there are camp sites scattered on both sides, all different shapes and sizes."
"When you pull into the empty turn around and onto the dirt road you could be immediately disarmed."
"Small pieces of trash left behind from other people here and there. Some hikes are located very close to camp as well."
"Lots of open areas with flat grounds for tents and plenty of greenage between other spots and if you have 4 wheel drive you can go pretty much anywhere and find a neat camp spot."
$19 - $67 / night
"I had to drive back into town and buy Tent #2, which was watertight even when the rain came pouring down.
There is no running water in the campground."
"Stayed two nights with a few friends and we had two campsites next to each other."
$33 - $58 / night
"Our first time camping in Nevada, and first time camping for my son. It's only 40 mins away from us. We went there the weekend before my son's school starts as last hurrah."
"Being close to your neighbors can have its positives and negatives, lucky for us it was all upside when we stopped here to check it out in regard to neighbors."
$12 - $80 / night
"Summer time might not be the best time to try to camp in southern Nevada but with mild fall and winter this campsite leaves a lot of options for those looking for an outdoor adventure."
"Great campground really close to Vegas (at night you can see that light beam from the Luxor)."
"They have tables, bathrooms and the location is now McWilliams.
Here are my star ratings based on my lifestyle and what I like."
"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"
"Here’s a breakdown of the hike: 17 miles | 11,916 ft elevation | 8,241 ft prominence | Highest peak in Southern Nevada | 8th most prominent mountain in the U.S. | Most prominent mountain in Nevada."
"Charleston is always the go-to during summer, as it’s 20 degrees cooler than it’s surrounding area."
GuideThere were some nice spots. we enjoyed our 2 nights there. Beautiful forest area.
TravelerJust a big asphalt lot. There is a small pool and pet relief area.
TravelerNeeded a place to best the heat while passing through Vegas, was a good 20 degrees cooler . Pretty busy area with alot of campers who may live there. If you have 4x4 and some clearance you can offroad to some pretty interesting spots up the mountain. All in all a quiet and cool night.
GuideYou'd think that being nestled in the Red Rock canyon area the views from here would be amazing. Maybe they are in one or two spots, but nothing of the sort in the RV area.
I choose the RV spots since they seemed the furthest from what is a dense camping area; made to feel more so since there are no trees or anything to block the views of your neighbors 15 feet away. To call these RV spaces would be a stretch. It was a gravel parking lot with picnic tables and a few fire pits. And again, with no views at all since it's in a bit of a bowl shaped recess.
No cellular service until you get a mile closer to the highway, so be prepared to go off line.
I will compliment the bathroom as being adequate.
No host on site. That didn't matter to us.
Conditions in the region change fast and can be extreme. Be prepared.
The access to mountain bike trails was nice, even though we had to cross into some disallowed spaces to access them.
GuideStayed here many times in the past several months worth of dates spread over 2005-2007, 2013, 2018, and 2025. Nice upgrades since my first stays including the shaded structure spots.
This place is clean, a bit noisy, and very busy (busy-ness, loudness, light pollution are my reasons for only 3 stars).
I don’t remember hearing the gun range in the past but heard it each time I stayed recently (8 nights Mar-May 2025).
Typically booked but have been able to find a spot that was unoccupied (but reserved by someone else) by coming in late night/early morning; 5/5 on that this season.
ScoutJust pulled in here looks really peaceful and quiet away from the highway should be a restful night
ScoutWe stayed at The Wild Mustang in our van and had such a great experience. After checking in with the host, we got permission to pull our van over the berm and onto the property—and it was perfect. It had amazing views and total privacy. You really feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere, in the best way.
The host was kind and responsive. The sunsets were gorgeous, and at night the stars lit up the sky—some of the clearest you will ever see. There’s a really peaceful, raw desert vibe here that made it easy to just slow down, unplug, and relax.
It’s easy to get to, but still feels remote once you're there. We’ll definitely be back next year!
ScoutIt is really next to the Strip, all Spots are Full Hookup, to enter the RV Park at First you need to Call the Frontdesk, there is a Phone next to Gate which connects you to the Front Desk. There is no Laundrymachine in the RV Park, even though it is written on their website. They have an external Laundryservict the hotel Circus Circus, they couldnt tell me what the costs are for the laundry. And there is no Wifi available in the RV Park.
LegendQuite a bit of trash at nearly every site--please pick up after yourselves! Most sites were occupied on a Monday night, but despite that we were able to find an okay spot and had a quiet night. The cooler temp at a higher elevation was a nice break from the heat. No cell service, no amenities.
