Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Indian Springs, NV

This RV park is available to retired and/or active duty…great sites, most are pull thru…dogs loved the dog park instead of leash walks…

The staff were very friendly and had hours until 9pm. This was refreshing as we got a late start to our trip and arrived in around 8pm. Most campgrounds this would be considered after hours. Maintenance and security were always around the park and friendly. The campground has 2 dog parks. They were both fairy clean! Thankfully we got a back in spot with grass since we did have our dog. Most of the park is just gravel. Just a 5 minute walk across the parking garage to get to the casino if you choose to go to the one that is linked up with it. Would stay here again

This is a one night stay for us and a last minute idea! Was a little worried about finding somewhere for an RV and peoples reviews scared me. This KOA is right off the Highway with easy parking for all sizes, 15 minutes from Vegas strip and there is a casino right next to us too. Friendly staff at check-in, 2 security men patrolling at 1am when we got in. Dog park and dog relief area are small but clean. Showers and bathrooms are well lit and clean. Pool looked good but did not have a chance to get in. Friendly neighbors too. Would definitely come back again.

The only way to this campsite is getting onto Nellis AFB. You have to be active or retired military. This is by far the best, cleanest, nicest, best shade coverage, mostly pull thrus, tons of mature trees for shade, and the safest. You will not need to tie down anything loose around your site for fear of being stolen here. Obviously reasons being on a military base. All spaces are large and trees in between in the circle park areas. Back in along the walls and a good amount of spaces in a parking lot style. Full hookups, playground, dog park, and many many more amenities. A perfect place to stay if you are able to get on base. Sleeping in can be difficult though, after 7am expect to hear planes, helicopters or jets starting to take off.

This RV park has everything! The spaces are large and mostly pull-through. There is lots of shade, which is very important in Las Vegas. There are two nice swimming pools with hot tubs, a bowling alley, a casino (which by the way is much friendlier than down on the strip and cleaner too). There is a dog park and an 18 screen movie theater (first rate movies for $5). There is a TGIFridays and several other good restaurants in the casino. The shuttle bus is large, air conditioned and comfortable and you don't have to worry about parking and paying the high fees to do so.

On a side note, we went without our RV last year and stayed in the casino hotel. We had a beautiful room and paid well under $100. a night (in fact less than $50. a night).

We have not stayed in a nicer campground anywhere!

This is a nice clean campground! Everyone has been so nice and wonderful. It’s Vegas and the pool closes at 10, we were told because the kids are screaming and playing. They need to offer adult hours after 10:00 pm. Probably would not do pet site again as the pet yards are toooooo small. Needs more trees and shade.

We stayed at this park twice while passing North and South of Las Vegas.  It's a no frills Thousand Trails park that could use some updating.  The spaces are very tight together partially because the occupants don't follow the site lines on the ground.  We saw several that parked on the line and extended their slide outs into the area of the next RV'er, therefore, they were unable to extend their awning.  Car parking is chaos, again because no one seems to stay within the space lines painted on the ground. We had difficulty even backing into our site because of the way the next door neighbor parked his rig and vehicle.  They finally saw us struggling and came out to move their car.  There is noise from a busy road behind the park and it's in the path of the airport.  Between the noise and the close quarters, we were ready to move on after a week.  The laundry rooms were decent but twice we found washers to be out of order.  Showers are OK.  Dog park is half grass and half dirt.  Pool was closed when we arrived but looks nice.  Some annual or seasonal sites could use some clean up.  Looked like they were storing everything they owned outside.

This place is literally in the middle of nowhere- which is awesome! We drove away from the campground at night for some amazing star viewing. The casino food was okay. This place is about forty five minutes away from Death Valley National Park. Campground is nicely maintained. Theoretically there are showers inside the casino but we have yet to actually find them 🤷‍♀️ My dogs had fun barking at the cow, sheep and donkey at the casino “petting zoo” which was really just a few poor animals living sad lives in a tiny fenced in area. The Mountain View is amazing for sunsets and definitely a plus!

Check in was rather seamless. The entrance is attractive.

Huge park with over 800 spots. Hard to see numbers after dark so make sure you have your map and know the street names to turn on.

Bathrooms are clean and the park in general is clean. No mention of a pet area and we did not find a good spot to take our dogs other than the pavement through the park and our small gravel patch in our site. We rented a standard site for our van and car. Spaces are close together like many RV places.

We had an okay meal at the cafe and appreciate that this is on site. Had a killer margarita at the cafe bar.

This is the worst RV park ever they are infested with cockroaches there's no maintenance whatsoever at the property they don't pick up trash they don't maintain sites they don't mow the grass for the pets it's utterly disgusting the bathroom showers are disgusting patched up drywall crumbling from the shower nozzles. Overall people in the office are rude when you make suggestion.

The campsites are located next to the vines and includes a composting toilet& picnic table. You are also welcome to plug in to a standard outlet for charging and use their hose for drinking water and filling tanks. T-Mobile, Verizon & AT&T work well and WiFi are available In addition to your site, they also offer guests an outdoor kitchen, outdoor shower, amazing night skies, and are pet friendly. The camp is 2,890 feet over Death Valley, offering lower temperatures at night, 15/20 degrees less than Furnace creek

I had been in this direction before and knew I wanted to camp here! It’s an easy drive from Los Angeles. We stopped right off the freeway at the super Walmart for supplies and then the campsite was only about 15min from there. Checking in with our incredibly friendly camp host was easy. The campsite was very clean and we had a fire pit. The bathrooms were also very clean! Red Rock State Park is only about 8 min away and I strongly suggest getting a scenic drive reservation. Once you go in you can spend the whole day there! Beautiful spot and pet friendly!

Red rock camping is super neat. We didn’t reserve we just went for it and found the host whom told us to find a spot and so we did and it was great! Being born in raised in Las Vegas it’s a must you know it gets really hot, so make sure you pack a lot of water and lights because it’s dark. Pets are allowed and children too ha ha. Besides that you have a tent pad so there is a nice flat area for you to camp and a fire ring. I recommend reserving and making sure you reserve one with a canopy if not make sure you bring a canopy. The sun is scorching. We hiked up the little mountain which gave us epic views of red rock, all the different reds and oranges make for a photo worthy shot.

For a casino campground, you can't beat this one. It's greatest attraction is that you are within walking distance of Sam's Town Hotel & Casino, which is a great local place with movie theaters, large selection of dining options (sit down restaurants & fast food), gorgeous 10-story indoor atrium with the Mystic Falls Laser Light Show, and of course gaming. As for the KOA, there's a pool, showers, laundry facility, full hook-ups, propane refills, Wi-Fi, cable, clubhouse, general store, pet park with bench & shade, and a Wal-mart right across the street (with a fairly large RV supply section).

It should be noted that Sam's Town KOA has 2 locations:  5225 Boulder Highway (which is discussed in this review).  And... 4040 S. Nellis Blvd (which is very much inferior).  Beware of your location when booking reservations!!

I stayed in Vegas for several months and found this to be one of my homes away from home. Sure I was close but I also wanted to get out of the house and camp where the weather was nice. During fall and winter this place is great, even into early spring (although rain can get you from time to time then). I visited with my friends constantly and hiked many of the trails.

I loved the camping spaces out here because they opened right up into the park itself and you could literally hike from there to an adventure or drive into the main entrance and find something deeper into the park.

While those are the pros, with that also come a few cons. Coyotes are very predominant in this area so you will want to make sure if you travel with pets they are not left unattended and you will also want to make sure you put food away.

Snakes, during fall and winter these are not bad because they are not out and about, but come spring they start to resurface. These aren't your nice little garden snakes either these are the really scary bad ones.

Spiders! yep they have all the scary things out here and they are the spiders which create webs that look more like they are taking over a tree. Again this begins in late spring so that is when my hiking always stopped.

During the right time of year this place is a goldmine of opportunity!!!
