    Hilltop

    Amazing Views If You Know Which Sites

    This was my first time camping at Hilltop. I reserved online, which is great, so when I got there I just pulled into the spot. The camp host came by and asked for either my ID or the reservation.

    I stayed in Spot 1, which is nice if you want to be a little secluded, but I did have a lot of traffic noise when trucks or loud motorcycles came by. The tent area was level and smooth, which was a big help when Tent #1, which set up beautifully in my living room, refused to, in spite of much coaxing and cursing. 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. Spigots have been capped, and where there once were showers, there are now portable toilets. In the larger group areas, they (and the trash bins) fill up fast, but less so in the remainder of the campground. Walk a little bit farther and you'll likely find a cleaner portable. This campground is very tent friendly.

    If you want truly incredible views, reserve spots 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18. 22, or 23. All are on the outside edge overlooking the valley below. There are also deer that graze when the campground is quieter, and nearby access to a lot of hiking areas.

    Pahrump RV Park

    Decent rv park

    Gravel roads when you enter into this RV park as well as gravel spots, full hook ups, showers and bathrooms, a nice little grass area with barbecue grill and picnic tables nice little dog area nearby a lot of dust however it has everything you could need not to mention you’re very close to death Valley so it’s a great little RV park nearby to Death Valley without being in the heart of death Valley overall a well kept little RV park for a day or two

    Hilltop

    Nice Mountain Stop Outside of Vegas

    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

    Mahogany Grove

    Ranger Review: MuckBoots Fieldblazer Boots at Mahogany Grove, Mt. Charleston Campground

    Enormous group campground. Went for a family gathering. Lots of shade from the gnarly pine trees growing all over the campground. Plenty of spots to hang a hammock or put a tent. Lots of already built seating in the form of stone benches.

    Vault toilets were decently clean. Water is usually available but was not when I was there. Fires were also forbidden when I was there as there because of wildfire fears.

    Very close to the Mt Charleston North Loop Trail. Since I was with family I did not attempt it (it’s 10+ miles long), but we did go hike at nearby Robber’s Roost which is easy. I have done the North Loop in the past, and the Rain Tree is definitely worth seeing if you can make the hike.

    Gear Review: This contains a review of MuckBoots Fieldblazer boots, which were provided to me free of charge***

    I was extremely excited to win a MuckBoots giftcard from The Dyrt in the June contest for Nevada. After intense deliberation, I decided to go with the Muck Fieldblazer. Although I don’t hunt, I do stomp around in the woods near my grandmother’s in Placerville California. I have also experienced miserable wet and muddy days camping at Mt. Charleston while my socks are wet from the rain. I’ve had a few chances to test the water resistance when it rained here in Las Vegas last July. They handled the above the ankle deep running water wonderfully and kept my socks dry.

    After establishing their waterproof credentials, I decided to give their wearability a try on the Robber’s Roost trail, which is about short hike up to a cave, about a mile round trip. I didn’t get any blisters, and though they were somewhat tight on my calves it didn’t cause any issues.

    Overall they were excellent waterproof general use boots. Because of their size I wouldn’t take them on extended backpacking trips, but for hikes and tromping around in muddy or wet environments they are perfect.

    Las Vegas Bay Campground — Lake Mead National Recreation Area

    Nice facilities for a tent camper

    Nice campsite for tents or RVs. Flushing toilets and running water in the bathroom was nice. Beautiful sunset views, and the hills block all signs of civilization. You feel like you are in the middle of nowhere even though you are 20 minutes from Vegas. We stayed in late March which was a great time to stay. Low 70s during the day and maybe 59 at the coldest part of the nice.

    Las Vegas Bay Campground — Lake Mead National Recreation Area

    In the desert, but feels cozy somehow

    We landed in Vegas and headed straight out of the city to this campground.  I booked it online, not ever having seen it in person, but I'd stay again in an instant. 

    We had site 23 - very shaded and "green" - site 24 (not ours) was very open to the desert. 

    There is a no generator section meant for tents, but we didn't stay there as it seemed fully booked so I picked an RV/tent site at the far end.  And it was lovely.  The site was in the middle of a turn around, so we were in the "donut center" so to speak and it was quiet, shaded and beautiful.  Lot of palms and oleander that gave a lot of privacy. A short walk to the bathroom (hundred yards maybe?) but they were clean and the toilets were the flush kind, not pit kind. Drinking water was available too. There were fire pits at each site and a picnic table. Our site - and I assume most - were dirt/sand mix that made for easy tent set up.  But don't count on getting your stakes into the ground. There were a lot of small rocks around the site - obviously used by many campers to "stake out" the tent with.  We did so as well. 

    The campground as a whole was a short drive off the main road, but very easy to get to. 

    Absolutely I'd stay here again.

    Las Vegas Bay Campground — Lake Mead National Recreation Area

    Every site has amazing views

    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.


Guide to Jean

Camping options near Jean, Nevada range from bare-bones sites to resort-style accommodations across varied desert terrain. Situated at elevations between 2,000-9,000 feet, the region experiences temperature swings of up to 30 degrees between day and night during summer months. Most sites lack natural shade, with daytime temperatures regularly exceeding 100°F from June through September.

What to do

Hike accessible trails: Las Vegas Bay Campground provides access to trails suitable for various skill levels. "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!" notes Bonnie C.

Enjoy lake activities: Callville Bay RV Park serves as an excellent base for water recreation. A visitor mentioned, "I'm surprised no one else was here. I decided to camp here and was the only one all night. Very nice spot to kayak."

Mountain exploration: During cooler months, Mahogany Grove offers access to higher elevation activities. "Multiple large group sites, each with water spots. All spots have great views of the surrounding area. This site is close to the wonderful Desert Overlook Trail," explains a camper.

What campers like

Proximity to Vegas with isolation: Campers appreciate the contrast between urban and wilderness areas. "Easy access from Las Vegas, but feels a world away. Lots of big trees and bushes make the campground feel like an oasis," shares Lance E. from Las Vegas Bay.

Developed sites: Kyle Canyon Campground offers amenities despite its rustic setting. "All sites are first come, first serve, with a picnic table, grill, fire ring, but no shade structures. Restrooms, water on tap, and concrete benches are scattered throughout," reports Colette K.

Wildlife viewing: The desert ecology supports diverse animal spotting opportunities. "At night I've always heard coyotes and owls. Access to Lake Mead is a 15 minute drive away," comments a Las Vegas Bay visitor.

What you should know

Seasonal closures: Several glamping facilities near Jean operate limited schedules. Mahogany Grove has a specific operating season: "May 4 to September 30," while Hilltop Campground runs "May 1 to October 12."

Water availability: Many sites have limited or no water facilities. "Bring your own water or fill up at lee canyon campsite (20 minutes down the road) for free," advises Logan R. about Hilltop Campground.

Temperature considerations: The mountain campgrounds provide relief from valley heat. "Love this campground to escape the Las Vegas heat in the summer. Camp is clean and has many first come first serve as well as reservation sites," notes Hannah D. about Hilltop Campground.

Security awareness: Some areas require additional vigilance. "Just be mindful of your area and belongings," advises a Las Vegas Bay camper who rated their experience 4 out of 5 stars despite noting some concerns.

Tips for camping with families

Temperature management: Prepare for significant elevation-based temperature differences. "We stayed in late March which was a great time to stay. Low 70s during the day and maybe 59 at the coldest part of the nice," shares Trevor J. about Las Vegas Bay.

Spot selection strategy: Wine Ridge RV Resort offers family-friendly amenities beyond basic glamping. "2 swimming pools, pickleball courts, mountain views. Well kept and managed. Free breakfast M,W,F," reports a satisfied visitor.

Alternative recreation: For families needing additional entertainment, "Winery has a restaurant" at Wine Ridge, making it more suitable for mixed-age groups seeking glamping in Jean Nevada with restaurant access.

Tips from RVers

Site limitations: Lakeside Casino & RV Resort provides full hookups but with space constraints. "Spaces were very small and there was very little greenery. No campfires were allowed so there wasn't much to do in the evening," notes Michele H.

Seasonal pricing: Extended stays at developed glamping sites offer significant savings. Wine Ridge RV Resort charges "$519/month plus electric, which was $78 in VERY HOT SEPTEMBER," according to Robert.

Terrain considerations: Las Vegas Bay accommodates larger vehicles with caution. "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," explains a reviewer.
