"Flushing toilets and running water in the bathroom was nice. Beautiful sunset views, and the hills block all signs of civilization."
"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."
"At an elevation of 6200 ft this is a great place to get away from it all. But there are some things that those coming here should know. There is NO RUNNING WATER."
"There is no running water, cellular service, or firewood, so come prepared."

ScoutHello this is the owner/property manager. This geodesic dome is great for the off road/ off grid adventurer. We provide cooking supplies, fun games, and the most gorgeous hilltop view in the canyon.
TravelerAs we descended toward the river with our Scamp in tow, the thermostat rose. 87°, 92°, 96°, 98° oh boy! We pulled into our site, filled with beautiful rigs and large air conditioners, lol. The facilities, store, docks, beach, nature were excellent. Optimistic it would cool down at night.. Long story short, it didn’t. Wouldn’t change a thing. It was an adventure I would do again in a heartbeat with my reconditioned, air conditioned 1964 Avion!
GuideThis 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.
GuideGreat stretch of river that has several sections suitable for beach access. There’s a dock and boat launch area with beaches on both sides great for day camping but no overnight camping. We parked at a nearby parking lot and took our things down to the water and found a semi-shaded spot under a willow tree. The water was pretty cold but very clean and refreshing. The far side of the river is only accessible by hiking or kayaking across so the view was pretty much undisturbed. We saw a small group of big horn running across the hill side and down to the water for a drink. Very cool. As the day progressed the shade diminished so a canopy would have been very useful. We went in May and it was very full by the time we arrived at 11am. You can’t have open fires but charcoal or gas grills are fine. There are dumpsters but no running water or trash receptacles near so bring what you need and pack out what you bring.
GuideStayed in site C3. A very clean and well maintained campground. Visited in December and spent 3 night. Full hook ups for all drive thru and back in camp sites. There are tent sites also and everything is well maintained. There are tables and fire pits at all sites and lantern pole in all tent sites. Very quiet, within walking distance to Lake Mead, but all up hill on the way back. Great scenery, and a lot of recreational things at the marina. Boat, kayak, paddleboard rentals are available. Fishing dock close by. Can even visit the fish hatchery up river, which is a short walk. Store with about everything you need and a small restaurant. Campground has showers and laundry. They take passes and the price is going up next season. But still a good deal especially with a pass. Reservations thru the Campground website. No cell service, but internet is available. Will be going back.
LegendGood 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
TravelerAt an elevation of 6200 ft this is a great place to get away from it all. But there are some things that those coming here should know. There is NO RUNNING WATER. Be prepared to bring your own if you are staying for any length of time.
There is NO CELLULAR SERVICE. The "toilets" are vault toilets (fancy outhouses) that are not regularly maintained, but were also reasonably clean.
There are 7 sites total. Two up one side on a small hill, two by the first vault toilet, one in the middle, and then a group site with two tent pads by the second vault toilet.
Each site has a picnic table, fire ring and tent pad. Bring your own firewood. Pack out your trash.
I was there for 3 nights, when we arrived we were the only people there until late in our second day.
The roads were passable with a hearty 2wd truck/SUV, but 4wd is recommended. You will NOT get to this campground in a car. You need ground clearance to make it up the rough roads.
Weather was pleasant & dry. Nights were cold to cool. Lots of sun. Pack the sunscreen - ask me how I know.
Overall a great place to getaway to if you need a break from civilization.
TravelerNice 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.
RangerThis campground is more for RV. There is also space for tents. This is an ok campground in my opinion with showers and running water. The price is on the low side of 20 dollars
Visitors to North Las Vegas, Nevada can find temperatures that reach over 100°F in summer and drop to the 30s in winter, creating distinct seasonal camping considerations. Area campgrounds span elevations from 1,220 feet at Lake Mead to over 8,000 feet in the Spring Mountains. This diversity creates multiple microclimates within an hour's drive of the city, affecting what to pack and when to visit.
Hiking trails access: Las Vegas Bay Campground connects to several trails, including one "about a mile and a half long starting behind campsite number 74," according to one camper. "The sites are on the outer rim of the campground with perfect views of the surrounding mountains."
Water activities: Callville Bay RV Park offers access to Lake Mead for boating and fishing. "We have camped here many times but particularly enjoy this marina over any others on the lake... Nice boat ramp although since the lake is lower than it used to be it can be a long walk to park your car after you put your boat in the water," notes Jeremy M.
Night sky viewing: The high elevation campgrounds provide exceptional stargazing opportunities. At Desert Pass Campground, one visitor noted, "Too many stars to count, you'll be up all night." The elevation and distance from city lights creates optimal viewing conditions.
Temperature relief: The high-elevation sites offer escape from valley heat. "If you're looking for a peaceful escape from the heat and bustle of Las Vegas, Desert Pass in the Mormon Pass is the perfect getaway... Just a short drive away, you're instantly transported into cooler mountain air surrounded by beautiful pine and juniper trees," explains Ryan F.
Natural surroundings: Hilltop Campground provides a forested environment unlike the desert below. "The campground has tons of trees for shade and is at altitude, so is usually 20 degrees cooler than the valley itself," notes Christina S. The contrast to typical desert camping makes it popular during summer months.
Wildlife viewing: Multiple campgrounds report wildlife sightings. "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!! Sites are small," writes Bonnie C.
Fire restrictions: Rules vary by season and location. "Fires were also forbidden when I was there because of wildfire fears," reports a Mahogany Grove visitor. Check current restrictions before arrival.
Water availability: Many sites have limited or no water. At Hilltop Campground, "There is no running water in the campground. Spigots have been capped, and where there once were showers, there are now portable toilets," explains Denny B.
Bathroom facilities: Quality varies widely. Las Vegas Bay Campground has "clean restrooms with flushable toilets" according to Minda B., while other locations offer only vault toilets or portable options.
Season selection: For desert camping with children, avoid summer heat. At Las Vegas Bay Campground, "We stayed in late March which was a great time to stay. Low 70s during the day and maybe 50 at the coldest part of the night," reports Trevor J.
Shade assessment: Check campsite descriptions for shade options. "[Hilltop Campground] has smaller sites, closer together, no water, smaller scrubby pines (limited shade), but it is still a great escape from the Las Vegas heat," notes Colette K.
Security considerations: Some campgrounds report safety issues. At Las Vegas Bay Campground, "1/2 of the campers are folks passing through and either keep to themselves or are kind. 1/4 are homeless from Vegas, that kept to themselves... Just be mindful of your area and belongings," advises Imerie T.
Size limitations: Many mountain campgrounds have tight turns. At Hilltop Campground, "Would not recommend pulling a trailer around this site, there are two extremely tight turns," warns T K. Similarly, at Las Vegas Bay Campground, "RVs larger than 31 ft will have a hard time fitting," notes one reviewer.
Hookup options: For yurt camping near North Las Vegas, Nevada, or those seeking more comfort, Sage Desert Dreams provides a geodesic dome with electric hookups. "This geodesic dome is great for the off road/off grid adventurer. We provide cooking supplies, fun games, and the most gorgeous hilltop view in the canyon," explains the property manager.
Surface conditions: Tent campers should note ground conditions. At Las Vegas Bay Campground, "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," reports Amy G.
