    Circus Circus RV Park

    Perfect place to explore Las Vegas

    It’s a 30 minute walk to the Strip, you even have a pool (which is very nice when it’s that hot)

    Kingman Wash — Lake Mead National Recreation Area

    Beautiful location . . .

    Used this as my base camp for exploring other nearby areas such as Arizona Hot Springs and Goldstrike Canyon. I prefer to camp naked and everyone was cool with it.   It has vault bathrooms, amazing sunsets, safe water, great skinny-dipping/snorkeling.  Great spot to paddleboard to nearby Hoover Dam.  Great for SCUBA.  The burros rarely bite.  They just want food, if you ignore them, they'll go on to the next car.

    Mack's Canyon Dispersed Camping

    Vegas' Secret is Getting Out

    Mack’s Canyon Campground is a convenient and easily accessible spot just outside of Las Vegas, making it a popular choice for campers looking for a quick escape from the city. 

    The sites themselves are quite spacious, which is a big plus if you’re setting up multiple tents or bringing along larger vehicles and gear. That said, campers relying on tents should be prepared for a bit of a challenge. The terrain can be rocky and is almost always uneven, with limited flat ground, so finding a truly level spot for a tent can take some extra effort. It’s definitely doable, but requires some patience and creativity. 

    Because of the easy access, this campground does see more people than one might desire in a mountain canyon. More people unfortunately more noise—music, vehicle noises and voices tend to carry through the area, amplifying the sound beyond a single campsite. 

    On top of that, the area seems to attract a fair share of rowdy “hold my beer, watch this” drivers. I noticed some campsites with remnants of donuts, not the edible kind, but the ones left by thrill seeking drivers, which can disrupt the peace and quiet. While there, there were also some drivers driving far faster than what any driver should be on those roads, just be careful! 

    Overall, Mack’s Canyon offers beautiful mountain surroundings and roomy sites, but comes with trade-offs: less seclusion, more noise, and some challenging terrain for tents. Great for groups or quick getaways, but those seeking solitude and serenity may want to look elsewhere.

    Desert Pass Campground

    25 Miles away...But a world of difference

    If you’re looking for a peaceful escape from the heat and bustle of Las Vegas, this campsite 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. The elevation makes a huge difference in temperature—what feels awful and unbearable in the valley becomes a refreshing and comfortable summer retreat here. 

    The site itself is well-maintained, with clean and convenient pit toilets that make camping much more pleasant for families. The grounds are spacious, with plenty of room to spread out and set up camp comfortably. The trees not only provide shade but also add to the serene, scenic setting. Be smart, bring water, there is NO water available at this location. During the summer months also be cautious of the bees. We had a MASSIVE presence of bees once we brought the water and cups out, they are just as thirsty as you are up there! 

    Whether you’re relaxing at camp, exploring the trails, or just enjoying the cooler mountain air, this spot offers the kind of quiet and beauty that feels like it’s worlds away, even though it’s only about 25 miles from Las Vegas. 

    A great location for families, adventurers, or anyone wanting a quick but refreshing reset in nature!

    Stewart’s Point Dispersed Camping — Lake Mead National Recreation Area

    Lots of room, great views

    After a bumpy drive down a chopped up paved road you will go past a few houses that may or may not be lived in, some of them give off a bit of a suspicious feeling if you’re not from around the area.

    There is a spot you can walk down to the water and go for a nice swim with a little beach, great when you’ve got it to yourself. We didn’t stay because of the sketchy feelings being international travelers. Due to the nearby buildings with sketchy people and remote location. Close by valley of fire park which is a plus!

    Boulder Beach Camp Grounds

    Starter to my camping life

    I stayed the max time on and off. 30 days. This is where it all started. In that time I have toned my camping skills.

    Bathrooms where good to do your morning necessaries. Views of the lake, roadrunners, quails and a bird I don't know.

    I wish more people "packed out what they packed in" but what ever.
