North Las Vegas camping options range from urban RV parks to military-only facilities and nearby public lands. The Hitchin' Post RV Park provides full hookups in North Las Vegas proper, while Desert Eagle RV Park at Nellis Air Force Base offers military personnel clean, well-maintained sites with full hookups. Several commercial RV resorts operate throughout the greater Las Vegas valley, with Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area offering more natural camping experiences approximately 30 minutes from North Las Vegas.
Summer temperatures regularly exceed 100°F in this desert environment, making spring and fall the most comfortable camping seasons. Most established campgrounds remain open year-round but require advance reservations during peak travel periods. Winter nights can drop below freezing, while summer heat creates potentially dangerous conditions for unprepared campers. Cell coverage is generally strong near populated areas but may diminish in more remote locations. Air traffic noise affects some campgrounds, particularly those near Nellis Air Force Base. According to one visitor at Hitchin' Post RV Park, "Flight path to Nellis AFB is directly overhead so it is LOUD. Be prepared. If possible, look up Red Flag week beforehand - if you love plane watching, that's your week."

GuideWe only stayed here for one night, but it was pretty expensive compared to the other resorts we have stayed at! The pool was wonderful though. It was about a 15 minute drive to the strip- we Ubered because we didn’t want to deal with the traffic.
GuideWell run, clean older park. Mostly permanent rigs. Area for nightly rigs didn't have any shade. Nice, helpful staff.
TravelerSpent the evening off the beaten path, gathered around a campfire under a sky full of stars with an amazing show by the moon. The desert delivered incredible views, peaceful silence, and just enough adventure to remind us why we love escaping the city. Good company, mountain backdrops, and unforgettable memories made this one for the books. Just open skies and great vibes. ✨🏕️🌙
GuideStunning camp sites nestled among the red rock cliffs. Tables, shelter and fire rings. Bathrooms ( pit toilets). Stopped on way back from Utah on trip to San Diego. Pulled in after sunset and had to drive through to see what sites were available. They left a sign out saying campground full from weekend but had not taken it down yet and there were plenty of sites open. Self pay campground after hours. So warm that we slept in bed of truck with no tent to watch the stars!
ScoutWe found out about this area on this site. Traveling from AZ to OR with our toy hauler and dogs. We hate hotels with dogs. We always seem to get a smelly room. Once we arrived and picked a spot we really enjoyed our space. Getting here was a bit of a puzzle. The directions led us to a space that seemed to be private property. There were faded out private property signs. We kept going and went past a makeshift fence with huge wooden posts. No more private property signs. We drove a ways to find a flat spot. Once settled in, loved our stay:) on the way out we saw where most people stay. It is well before the fence we went through and the gps destination. Nice level space. If we come back, that’s where we will stay. Also, we have AT&T and had no cell service.
GuideEasy after hours check-in. I made a reservation about a month ago requesting Trees. They assign your site when you arrive. I got number 38 in the Trees, next to a beautiful desert garden. Long pull-thru, level concrete, FHU, picnic table. About half the park has small trees with no shade, the other half mature trees with shade. At 2 PM, 97° outside with a breeze. Will stay here again.
TravelerIt is hot and beautiful. I might stay again if passing through, it was 35$. I originally gave it four stars, but as the sunset, I appreciated the natural beauty around me. there is a climbing area and tonight the stars will be amazing. I think if you really need it a layover on a long trip you should be able to find a parking space here, there are about 15 parking lot spaces forbovernighters along with more spacious campsites some have sun shelter. Bathrooms are clean, limited water and no trash disposal
GuideOpen desert with some hills and mountains in distance. Site is off first main road pull off to the right from main road. Hard packed gravel and sand. Drive for thirty seconds to a minute to find large flat campsite with campfire ring. Very quiet. Lots of stars. Some light pollution from Vegas visible to the southwest. Only ones here midweek.
ScoutGreat campground - quiet and accessible, paved road in, though a bit far (20 min). Fit my 22ft camper just fine.
Just wanted to let everyone know that I just tried to pull in last night, May 18th, and it is apparently closed due to extreme heat until October 1st.
Good luck finding another site this summer everyone.
North Las Vegas camping options extend from urban sites to dispersed public lands within driving distance. Visitors can expect temperature ranges from below freezing in winter to over 100°F in summer, with spring and fall providing the most comfortable camping conditions. This desert region features minimal natural shade and vegetation at most campsites, making preparation for sun exposure essential regardless of season.
Golf practice for campers: The Hitchin' Post RV Park offers a unique amenity for golf enthusiasts with their on-site practice facility. As one reviewer noted, "they do have a golf practice facility, horseshoes and recycling bins, dumpsters, newspapers available." This gives campers a chance to maintain their skills while staying in North Las Vegas.
Swim to beat the heat: Several campgrounds maintain pools as essential amenities during hot desert days. At Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort, "Fun times at the separate swimming pool area for adults and kids which is open late for some night swimming. 18 hole mini golf course, restaurant, and mini mart onsite."
Wildlife viewing at Lake Mead: The natural areas near Lake Mead provide wildlife viewing opportunities. Las Vegas Bay Campground visitors report, "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!!" Another camper mentioned, "At night I've always heard coyotes and owls."
Military accommodations: The Desert Eagle RV Park receives consistently high ratings from military personnel and veterans. One reviewer described it as "by far the best, cleanest, nicest, best shade coverage, mostly pull thrus, tons of mature trees for shade, and the safest." Another mentioned, "Sites are large and perfectly level. Grounds are spotless. Laundry and showers are perfectly maintained."
Affordable Vegas access: Budget-conscious travelers appreciate options like Las Vegas KOA at Sam's Town where "It was quite and calm. Not many people around but it's in the middle of boulder hwy with a Walmart across the street. 10 minutes away from the strip." Another review highlighted its family-friendly nature: "They welcomed our kiddos when booking, unlike another local RV venue."
Desert solitude: Dispersed camping at Government Wash provides isolation for those seeking a more natural experience. A camper reported, "We outfitted our travel trailer with solar so we can RR at dispersed sites like this." Another noted you can camp "right along the water" though they warned to "beware, there are lots of bugs."
Flight noise considerations: North Las Vegas experiences significant air traffic noise, particularly near Nellis Air Force Base. A Las Vegas Bay Campground visitor found relief, noting that "from the highway you come in at, it looks like a little oasis in the middle of the desert... 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."
Heat preparation: Desert temperatures require careful planning, especially in summer. One visitor advised having "good ac. It was 112f and the sun was beating down, even at night it was 90+. There is no shade." For tent campers, Las Vegas Bay offers some relief where a visitor reported, "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."
Water conservation: Most sites have limited or no hookups, requiring water management. At Red Rock Campground, "This campground is located near the park, but unfortunately is not in the park itself. Sites are first come, first serve. The campground itself is not particularly scenic, but it has what you need (firepits, vault toilets, water faucets)."
Family-friendly security: Many parents choose gated campgrounds for additional security when camping near North Las Vegas. At Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort, visitors appreciate that it's "Easy drive/stroll this campground, large sites with full hookups and concrete pads for easy level setup. Fun times at the separate swimming pool area for adults and kids which is open late for some night swimming."
Age restrictions apply: Some RV parks have age requirements that limit family options. For example, Las Vegas RV Resort specifies "18 and older only. Not family friendly at all!! You must be 18 or older to come here so it's cool for people without kids or families."
Kid-friendly amenities: Facilities with recreational options keep children entertained. The Las Vegas KOA at Sam's Town impressed one family who reported, "We booked this last minute and had a great time at the park. The pool was closed, but they gave us access to the Sam's Town hotel pool... They welcomed our kiddos when booking, unlike another local RV venue."
Pull-through preferences: Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area offers distinct site layouts worth considering. One camper advised, "Unfortunately, we went to visit at prime climbing time so the campground was full of climbers. Instead, we had to camp at the overflow area which is about 10 minutes away and a little rough for a 2WD car to get to."
Spring/fall timing: Experienced RVers recommend avoiding summer unless necessary. A Las Vegas Bay visitor shared, "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."
Reservation requirements: Due to limited spaces at many campgrounds, advance planning is essential. Some campgrounds like Las Vegas Bay Campground operate on "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."
