The Ely KOA proves there's more to Nevada than casinos and neon. It's where high desert meets the mountains of Great Basin National Park, with meadows, forests, wildflowers, streams and lakes - and the fascinating marble/limestone formations of Lehman Caves. Explore ghost towns left behind from the 19th-century silver rush. Ride the Ghost Train of Ely for a trip into the past. Recreation includes hiking and ATV trails, garnet hunting, fishing, boating and swimming on Cave Lake. Fishing supplies available at KOA. Enjoy a beautiful RV Site with a patio area, private lawn and LP gas grill. Or choose an extra-long pull thru. If primitive is your thing, you'll love the lush, grassy Tent Sites and Camping Kitchen. This campground has rustic comfy Cabins and a Deluxe Cabin - complete with a full bath, kitchenette and LP gas grill. Family fun includes a playground, nightly outdoor movies, scavenger hunts and ice cream socials. Two dog walk areas and on-site corrals keep your four-legged travel companions happy.
Whether you prefer the rich smell of summer mahogany riding air currents blended with the vanilla of ponderosa pine, or the sound of a clear mountain stream babbling beneath a symphony of swaying white fir, you won't regret your stay at Upper Lehman Campground. At 7500 feet in elevation and three miles up the Wheeler Peak Scenic Drive a stay at Upper Lehman puts you within a ten minute drive of Lehman Caves and just a brief cruise from high alpine trails that will take you into the heart of the Snake Range. A stroll across the grounds may present you with mule deer or turkey, while a step out onto the viewing platform over Lehman Creek could offer a glimpse of brook trout moving gracefully through a liquid stage.
For guests at Upper Lehman Campground a number of recreational options present themselves. The jaw-dropping Wheeler Peak Scenic Drive runs right past the campground entrance, offering 12 miles of spectacular mountain and valley views while transporting you to near tree line at about 10,000 feet in elevation. From there a roundtrip trail walk of just under three miles will leave you with memories of iconic bristlecone pines, trees which can endure for over 4000 years, and stand for thousands after that. Another short stroll from the end of the Scenic Drive highlights Stella and Theresa Lakes, both fish free because they freeze solid during the winter months, but begging for a sunset photograph with colossal Wheeler Peak looming in the background. If a challenge is beckoning, you'll find ample beyond the Summit Trailhead. Beginning at mile 11 of the Scenic Drive the Summit Trail will launch you on an eight-mile, day-long endeavor to the top of Wheeler Peak, monarch of the Snake Range, where you may ponder the desperate lives of bristlecones, limber pines and Engelman Spruce gracing the rocky moraine below the summit. Renown Lehman Caves is just a 10-minute drive from your campsite (You'll want to make a tour reservation before you arrive.) along with the remote solitude of the less-travelled trails of the Baker Creek. The Snake Creek and Strawberry Creek Roads are a bit more distant, but worth the drive. Fishing in the park is legal with a Nevada state fishing license, but access is challenging in the small brushy park streams so consider a day-long excursion to Baker Lake. The experience includes a twelve-mile roundtrip hike to over 10,000 ft, but the trout fishing is fine and a more majestic venue could barely be imagined. Stop by one of the park visitor centers for regulations, and please treat the delicate alpine environtment of Baker Lake with respect. During the summer months beneath the uniquely black night skies of Great Basin National Park astronomy programs with park rangers draw large crowds to the Lehman Cave Visitor Center, just four downhill driving miles away. Bring a chair and dress warm as even summer temperatures can drop dramatically in the Snake Range.
Resting at the base of a limestone ridge anchoring 12,771 foot Doso Doyabi to the floor of Snake Valley, the sites of Upper Lehman Campground are scattered amidst a diverse forest of pinyon and ponderosa pine along with juniper, white fir, aspen and fragrant mountain mahogany. Upper Lehman Creek with its resident trout (It's a small dynamic stream, difficult to fish.) tumbles among the sites blending with the voices of pine needles, turkey, and the crackle of campfire to create a classic soundscape, perfect for the camping experience. Shade is easy to come by during the summer months followed by the gilded quivering of aspen leaves in the fall.
For facility specific information, please call (775) 234-7331.
Don't forget, Great Basin National Park was forshadowed when Lehman Caves was annointed a National Monument in 1922. The cave and its underground wonders are just a few miles away behind the Lehman Caves Visitor Center. Access is by tour only so be sure to book a reservation before you arrive, or stop by the visitor center to check on remaining availability.

This is an over all a good rv park off of the Main Street in ely. Full hook ups
Gravel roads throughout They do have pads that are not cement but gravel but they do have tables in them. Big trees for some shade which is always good. Close to the town and the rly airport. About 5 minute drive to the ely train station which is super neat and have plenty of things going on including polar express. About 5 minute drive to a gas station. Nice grass area through and a fog walking area.
TravelerIt is right along US-93 N. We stayed 13 weeks in February--May 2018 (spouse is a Travel Nurse) They offer long term stays as well as daily travelers stopping for the evening. I believe the daily rate was around $35.00 and the monthly rate was $300. + electric. They have full hookups and also have a shower house with laundry & propane fill ups. Staff is very nice & helpfull. Best place to eat RACKSBar and Grill there is a nice grocery store Ridleys. Las Vegas is 4 hours south and UTAH boarder is close. BEST Coffee Espresso is Flower Basket & Espresso Depot
Traveler
Located outside of Ely, but close enough if you need to run into town.
Staff was great, informed us about facilities and also map listed restaurants that deliver.
Hometown Pizza delivers to your site, good pizza.
They do inform you that by state law they have to have water pressure regulators on the water hookups so no need to add yours. (in Las Vegas at the KOA they had no idea what I was talking about but since we were within the city limits may not be needed).
Great view of the night sky after dark, dog parks are decent size, but by the time we got their our dog had found a spot on the roads.
Site pretty level, site and roads are gravel. Appears to be quite a few long term campers.
We were only there one night, but with everything if offers appears to be a place to stay for a week if so inclined.
Gets chilly at night, high altitude (close to 7,000 ft in elevation).
LegendThis place is great it has a pool, playground, so many family activities, a big grass area for the tent campers which is super cool, cabins available, propane refill station, amazing staff nice parking areas, nice RV spots with full hook ups, laundry room, tables at each spot, just so your aware the entire lots to drive through are all dirt and gravel so if you’re planning to bicycle it may be a little hard but other than that really great place up in Ely
ScoutWe have stayed here a few times with no issue. The people that answer the phone are nice and helpful. We stayed at this park along our commute to Oregon.
Full Hook Ups.
Easy to get into the park and easy to get situated. All dirty, with concrete pads for your RV or Trailer.
Not a bad spot, felt safe and headed out the next day during our commute.

GuideThis place is giant! There are tons of RV spots as well as a tent area and some cabins. We stayed here to visit Great Basin National Park because the weather was going to be too cold to camp in the park safely without hookups for us. We also used this KOA as our midway point to dump and refill our water between campsites without water. It had what we expected of a KOA - friendly staff, full hookups, easy level pull through sites, a playground, store, etc. The surprises for us: no pool (not that we wanted one), adorable neighbor goats, and two dog parks areas (one with grass). Our dog loved the dirt dog park. It was great giving him a chance to run around off leash for a bit on our trip since everywhere we went he had to be on-leash. The goats were a fun surprise, too, since we love watching goats.
Legend
well, it's not the best but it's affordable if you need a quick spot and nowhere else to go.
They do have showers
pull-through sites
full hook ups
Not much else to be said about this place... except your on the main street of ely so it could be loud.
LegendThis place is a little ran down but it does have pool through sites with full hook ups showers and bathrooms it’s nearby to a lot of things and it’s also on a main road so I’m sure you’ll probably get a lot of noise other than that if you need a place that’s affordable this place is here
Guide
I would add a half star if I could; if you like funky, then maybe 4 stars. This is a typical parking-lot style RV park sprinkled with elm trees. Very convenient to Great Basin visitor center and national park, which offers great hiking and views. RV park surface was a mix of dust and gravel. Hookups were fine. Laundry was excellent: reasonably priced and very clean. Nice to have shared clothesline available for use. Bathrooms / showers were very clean. Would have appreciated signage requiring masks in shared areas especially coming into another Corona spike.
GuideThere were two of us in RVs. We stayed in spots 3 and 5. We were able to park so that both of our RVs opened to make the area in-between us as the common area. There are several big trees so we had some shade some of the time. Rustic and a bit dusty, but for a base camp it fit the bill. We were there in end of June 2024. The weather was in the high 90s so we were so glad we had full hook-ups. We did not use the bathrooms so I have no comments about them. We did use the laundry room and they had several nice washing machines and dryers. All spots were sold out on the weekend so make reservations early. Jen, the manager, is super nice and friendly. Note about Lehman Caves: Lehman caves were amazing. Make sure you make reservations early and purchase your tickets for the tour of the caves before you get there. Several people that just showed up were not able to get tickets to go inside Lehman Caves.
GuideWe had wanted to camp near to Great Basin National Park, but decided against trying for something in the part, as we did not want to boondock for that many days. The TINY town of Baker has two small RV parks, and Whispering Elms was our choice.
It is a facility that is far from glamorous. The grounds are mostly dirt and weeds and the worst part about staying here was indeed the dust that got kicked up everywhere. The sites are kind of close together, and there's nothing like picnic tables or really any kind of amenities to beautify the place. It is quite humble. The bathhouse was pretty rustic, BUT, everything worked great. Nice hot showers, regular cleanings, plenty of paper products. No complaints. The electric we used was clean. Water pressure was good. Hook ups were convenient and close to each other.
Service was nice. We mostly interacted with Dakota and Sam; both were friendly and helpful. No issues there. And please note, the building where you stop to check in is ALSO A BAR! With a respectable tap selection of Nevada beers, a beer case full of interesting beers and some unusual bar selections too. We hung out there a little bit three days, just sit at a table and chat and have some drink service. I was so surprised to find a bar here!
Great Basin is way off the beaten path; I'm not sure my travels will ever take me this way again. But if we do come this way, and want to stay near the park(5 miles from Whispering Elms to Lehman Caves visitor center; less than a mile to the regular visitor center), I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Just drive slow to avoid kicking up dust.
RangerFull hookups, clean and neat grounds with a beautiful view. SXS trails too
Traveler
This is a great all in 1 stop clean dump station gas propane store and good food Has only 7 full hookup sites but a big open lot open for free dry camping
TravelerThis review is for the KOA Journey just south of town on 93. We’ve been dry camping and hitting lots of free and cheap sites for a few weeks with our 17’ trailer . We wanted one night with hookups, hot showers with good water pressure, a laundry, WIFI, and quiet. This KOA delivered! No reservation needed and $48 including tax seems like a fair price. Super clean. Lots of RVs in sites pretty close together but doesn’t matter when it’s 20-degrees outside.
Guide
Free campsites along the reservoir, windy up on the high spots. Fire pits, picnic tables (some with shade) and wind fences. Great views, better for campervan or RV camping just because of the high wind and no pads, but you could do it. No cell coverage on sprint or Verizon while here.
ScoutVery convenient for visiting Great Basin NP. Only option that had full hookups and allowed reservations (essential as we had our dog with us and wanted to be able to run AC, no dogs allowed on most of the trials in the NP). Plenty of space between sites. Camp hosts were nice, other campers were very friendly. There were showers and washing machines (we didn’t use as our trip was short and we had FHU). Nearest convenience store and gas station was 15 minutes away (Border Inn).
Legend
Beautifully managed because there is no concessionaire to muddle things up. This is a first class forest experience.
Arrive early--- No cell- No internet -- some sites restricted from RV's. Not many level sites.
Bring everything you need. No gas, no groceries for many, many miles.
23 sites--- (there is no site # 19.) numbered to 24. 18-24 are best for tents.
Exceptionally clean vault toilets. No bears in this park. There are 2-3 pull through sites and 2 good ADA sites.
Astronomy program is first class.
LegendI was apprehensive after reading reviews for this campground about how unlevel the sites were. We travel and sleep in our 17 foot van without leveling blocks so we need a level site. Yes, some were not level (but many of those were tent sites) but we found many that were just fine! Site 1 was very level (and could accommodate a large RV). Probably the cleanest pit toilets I have ever seen! Many sites had lots of privacy between them. We were there at the end of April so many roads and hiking trails were not yet open so we toured Lehman Caves which I highly recommend (reserve ahead of time at Recreation.gov). All tours were booked for a Monday in April (when we booked day before, there were still plenty of openings). Limited or no cell service.
LegendTHIS PLACE IS GREAT!
THE STAFF IS AMAZING AND YOU HAVE THE POLICE CONSTANTLY AROUND PROTECTING THIS AREA.
IT'S A SMALL RV SPOT AND THEY TAKE CASH ONLY.
THEY HAVE AVAILABLE A COOL PLACE TO WALK YOUR DOGS.
100 FOOT WALK TO THEIR STORE AND GAS STATION
THEY SERVE FOOD AT A GREAT PRICE
THEY ALSO HAVE AREAS WHERE BIGGER RIGS CAN PULL UP AND PUMP GAS AS WELL.
PROPANE FILL-UP STATION
IF YOU NEED TO STOP JUST TO EMPTY YOUR RV THEY DO HAVE A CHARGE BUT IT'S EASY TO GET TO AND ONLY COSTS 15$ IF YOU WANT TO DUMP AND FILL UP FRESH WATER AS WELL.
They have a dispensary as well.
TRASH CANS AVAILABLE
I REALLY ENJOYED THE GUYS WHO WERE WORKING IN THE FRONT SUPER NICE AND HELPFUL.
THE STATE PARK IS ABOUT 2O MINUTE DRIVE
CHARCOAL WARD IS ABOUT 35 MINUTE DRIVE
THE ELY TRAIN STATION IS 10 MINUTES AWAY
THE FISHING HOLE WHERE EVERYONE IS FISHING IS ABOUT 10 MINUTES AWAY
OVERALL A REALLY COOL PLACE TO PULL IN AND STAY FOR A NIGHT OR TWO
THE CONS OF THIS PLACE IS IT'S ON THE MAIN DRAG OF THE CITY SO CARS ALWAYS DRIVING BUT THAT'S THE ONLY CON
LegendIt’s a KOA Journey, so, close to a “major” road (RT 93), which was very quiet despite proximity. It’s got nice views across the street, so if you’re on the first row of campsites, you’ll get front row seats. The spaces are quite close together, so privacy is minimal, though everyone was very respectful and quiet during quiet hours. Nice spot for access to Great Basin NP (which is a jewel, btw). Lots of options for fishing, kayaking, and other outdoor activities nearby too. We went to Cave Lake and were not impressed but... maybe it was just the wrong time of year (end of May). Sites are mostly level and big-rig friendly, hookups on site were reliable!
Ranger
About 6 miles off the main highway on a good road. Lake is not much, but the area is beautiful. Lots of hiking in area. No hookups but there are flush toilets and showers. Would not recommend for large trailers as the CG road is a little tight. We have a 22 foot trailer and were OK.
Ranger
Well maintained campground located near the Ward Oven historic site. Campsites are all level with shade canopies. Picnic tables, and BBQ. Some pull thrus that can accommodate larger trailers. Road in is 6 miles of good gravel. Water available but no electric or sewer. Lots of hiking trails and the Ward Ovens are interesting.
Scout
This is a very small campground with only about 10 sites. The sites are perfect for tent camping or for trailers and RVs. There are pit toilets, but no water available. At the present time no fires are allowed in the fire pits. Only propane cooking is allowed.
Scout
Nicely dispersed campsites tho dusty. No reservation campground with fire outs and picnic tables. Sites can accommodate RVs but not very level. Accessible via dirt road.
GuideI see so many negative reviews for this place because the park itself looks a little beat up. Our neighbor even canceled their reservation because of “weeds.” If you can look past that, you’ll have a wonderful experience.
The entire staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Everything works - showers, laundry, hookups - so even if it’s not recently updated, the important thing is it works.
The highlights are proximity to the park, the on-sight bar where you can mingle with the staff, locals, and travelers, and the quiet, super dark star-speckled nights.
We love this place so much that my husband is considering workamping in Baker next Season. We will be back.
GuideNice quiet park just outside Ely. As usual with KOA, it was bit on the pricey side. They could have used some dust control on the gravel roads as well.
Overall, the place was clean and quiet, sites were level, and the front desk lady was so friendly! I only stopped here for one night, but would stop again if I was in the area.
If they get the dust under control, I would have left 5 stars.
GuideThis was a beautiful campground with sites that were very private. It is great for tents and RVs. There were wildflowers around my site. It is located at 7500 feet elevation. I checked the campground website before going here and it said there was drinking water. There was not! The water was turned off for the season. Luckily, this has happened to me several times before, so I always bring extra water with me now. Since the water was turned off and it had vault toilets, I can only give it a 3 star rating. If the water was on (or the website information accurate) I would have given it a 4 star.
