  Valley View RV & Mobile Home Park

  Close to town of ELY and very affordable, nice & helpful owners.

  It 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

  Ely KOA

  Standard KOA with a few surprises

  This 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.

  Ely KOA

  Nice location and great staff

  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).

  Wheeler Peak Campground — Great Basin National Park

  Wonderful High Country Campground

  The Wheeler Peak campground is a primitive campground up a steady and steep road in Great Basin National Park. If you are heading here I would do several things at the last major city you come to. 1)Buy all the food you will need. 2) Buy TP 3)Gas up the vehicle. You are literally in the middle of nowhere with a few small towns close buy but nothing really accessible to the park if you need supplies. Also, if you are going to go to this campground, bring your cold weather gear even in summer. You are really high up and it does get chilly at night.

  When I was here the park rangers told me it was full and that driving all the way to the top was just for the vies. When I got to the top, it wasn't close to being full and I got a really nice spot next to a stream. I say this so that you check the sites yourself instead of word of mouth. It is a first come first serve campground so you never know how things will turn out. The sites themselves are great! I had a level spot to set my tenet up on and there was a table and fire ring. I was told you can collect firewood here that is on the ground but I would check with the rangers first. The bathrooms are a pit toilet and they have no showers. I would definitely do the bristlecone hike up even if you are short on time. It is well worth the time and adventure.

  Lower Lehman Campground — Great Basin National Park

  Small secondary campground in Great Basin-

  Not a first choice, but handy to the road to Wheeler Peak and to the Visitor Center…probably all decent sites except # 11 which was poor.

  Many sites have pull throughs for small campers. I wouldn't put a large RV in here.

  No local provisions at all. Baker NV has nothing to offer. Small gas station is at least 15 miles from park entrance--- ask at Post office in Baker. 

  Lots of dust here from road. Vault toilets.

  Lake View Campground — Cave Lake State Park

  Lakeview campground

  Just spent a week there. Loved it! Very clean nice camp spots. Most spots not real big. If you have a big rig not recommend. Bathrooms with free showers, free dump for paid campers.

  Fishing was awesome! Great hiking trails, except no printed maps of trails. Great mountain biking too, we did all three.

  Lots to see close by. $15 a night. No reservations accepted, it filled up for the weekend.

  I will go back.

  Ely KOA

  Koas are where its at

  This 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

  Willow Creek — Ward Charcoal Ovens State Historic Park

  Pleasant Surprise

  The campground is very nice. Sites have shade from trees and picnic table covers. Vault toilets are very clean. I was the only one at the campground when I stayed here at the end of April. There are pull through sites and back in sites. There's water available, but when I was there they had just turned it on and it has not been tested yet to make sure it was safe to drink.

  Upper Lehman Creek Campground — Great Basin National Park

  Better than expected

  I 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.
