4 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Las Vegas KOA Journey at Sam's Town offers two dog parks with designated pet relief areas for campers with dogs. The RV resort provides full hookups with both pull-through and back-in sites that accommodate pets, while maintaining clean facilities throughout the property. Most pet-friendly campgrounds near Sloan enforce leash requirements in common areas, though Lovell Canyon Dispersed Camping allows more freedom for pets in a natural setting. Thousand Trails Las Vegas permits pets but has limited space between sites, making it challenging for dogs needing more room to move. Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort maintains premium sites with concrete pads and provides designated pet areas, though large dogs and aggressive breeds face restrictions at some facilities. Security patrols regularly monitor these properties, creating a safer environment for campers with pets.
Dog owners camping in the Las Vegas area should prepare for extreme desert temperatures that can affect pets, especially during summer months when pavement becomes dangerously hot for paws. The Las Vegas Motorcoach Resort maintains exceptionally clean grounds with pet-friendly policies, earning perfect ratings from visitors with animals. Several campgrounds provide fenced dog parks with agility equipment, particularly at SKP Pair-a-Dice RV Park which features an impressive dog exercise area with multiple activity stations. Nearby pet supply stores offer emergency provisions, with a particularly good one located near Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort. Many campers note that early morning or evening walks are essential during warmer months to protect pets' paws from hot surfaces. Most RV parks enforce strict pet waste cleanup policies with designated disposal stations throughout the grounds.
"Bit close to the neighbors but not super tight. Good cell service on T-Mobile and AT&T. Laundry room clean with plenty of washer/dryers."
"The entrance is attractive. Huge park with over 800 spots. Hard to see numbers after dark so make sure you have your map and know the street names to turn on."
"It’s an easy drive from Los Angeles. We stopped right off the freeway at the super Walmart for supplies and then the campsite was only about 15min from there."
"I stayed in Vegas for several months and found this to be one of my homes away from home. Sure I was close but I also wanted to get out of the house and camp where the weather was nice."

"This KOA is right off the Highway with easy parking for all sizes, 15 minutes from Vegas strip and there is a casino right next to us too."
"This was refreshing as we got a late start to our trip and arrived in around 8pm. Most campgrounds this would be considered after hours."
"This is a great little getaway outside of las vegas and pahrump. After a few miles in, you hit some trees and cooler weather. Stayed for one night, but will definitely be going back."
"It's a beautifully rugged area, lots of pull of camp sites spread around. Can be busy and harder to find spots, but further back should have spots."
"There are full hook ups, a dog area, and a playground. There is very easy access to the Circus Circus casino, adventuredome, and the Duece (bus service on the strip)."
"The park is next to the pool area. Our advice would be to enter the gate then walk over to the hotel to get your spot reservation otherwise you will be waiting for an email that will never arrive!!"
from $46 - $63 / night

"We weren’t able to get past the main gate to get any more pictures because the line to get in was very long but there’s a little Diner right outside the property and plenty of food choices near by."
"This is a huge gated property in an ideal Las Vegas location. Not far from the south end of the strip, but tucked away in a quiet neighborhood."
from $80 - $130 / night
"Arizona Charlie's is a popular local hotel & casino, with easy access to downtown Las Vegas and nearby major thoroughfares."
"We’ve been here for 8 months now in 2 different locations and we’re new to the rv life. It’s nice because they have a flat rate, a clean area, and bathhouses with locks and 2 bathtubs."
from $32 - $149 / night
ScoutThe sites are very narrow, needs updating of utilities but the personnel make up for it. They are very friendly and helpful. Try to stay away from sites near Desert Inn Blvd., traffic and neighborhood noise is constant and loud!
ScoutSince it's Halloween u give up on customer service??? Seems like idiots in control of bigger idiots :)
LegendNoisy
TravelerBooked online through their website for a 2 night stay. I selected a premium pull-through site since my fifth wheel is 35.5 feet long with the hitch. An hour later I received a phone call saying that type of site is not available & they only have a back in site, when I asked the length, I was told 35 feet long… obviously I can’t fit there & said that. It was the only site available so now to look for another place to stay. When I asked why it allowed me to book online if the site wasn’t available… crickets.
Scout3.75 It is far! At least from everything I like on the strip. In a parking lot with hookups. If it wasn’t so far, it wouldn’t be rated higher for me.
TravelerI just passed by on my way to Callville Bay Campground. The entrance gate was closed. I passed by at about 4 pm. I don't know for how long, or why. Just thought I'd post that it was closed when it seems like it should've been open.
ScoutThis is closed 10/26/26
GuideThe pool and hot tub are fine. The site we are at is on gravel and the auto leveling could not level RV on the site
GuideNice spot with lots of trees close to great trails. Stayed mid week in October and place was about a third full and super quiet.
Near Sloan, Nevada, desert camping temperatures regularly reach 100°F during summer months while winter nights can drop below freezing. The Mojave Desert terrain features rocky outcrops, Joshua trees, and sparse vegetation with limited natural shade throughout most pet-friendly camping areas. Campgrounds within a 30-mile radius of Sloan offer varying terrain from urban resort-style facilities to primitive dispersed sites.
Hike Lovell Canyon trails: Accessible from Lovell Canyon Dispersed Camping, these trails provide cooler temperatures than valley locations. "I often stop here when I'm near Vegas. It's mostly quiet except for holiday weekends. Places to hike and wonderful views. No amenities, pack it in and Pack it out," notes Beverley G.
Visit Lake Mead beaches: Kingman Wash offers water access for paddleboarding and swimming. "The water is great and is perfect for my paddleboard! Weather wise be prepared for the heat. It was 101°F when we arrived, 80° at night. Bring lots of water to drink!" advises camper Peaches E.
Mini golf at RV resorts: Several campgrounds offer on-site activities. At Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort, you'll find "an 18 hole mini golf course, restaurant, and mini mart onsite. Easy taxi or uber ride to the strip. Not scenic by any means but comfortable, safe, quiet, and secure location," according to Matt I.
Off-strip locations: Many campers prefer staying away from the main tourist areas. "Located next to a casino and a short drive to the strip, this KOA has friendly staff and nice facilities. It's also across the street from a Walmart for anything you forgot," explains Angela H. about Las Vegas KOA Journey at Sam's Town.
Cooler elevations: The higher altitude at Red Rock Canyon offers relief from summer heat. Niko L. says, "This place is clean, a bit noisy, and very busy. I don't remember hearing the gun range in the past but heard it each time I stayed recently (8 nights Mar-May)."
Swimming pools: During hot weather, pool access becomes essential. "We stayed near the laundry and shower/bathroom station and initially concerned about foot traffic but had very little. The place is kept clean and the pool was great, especially to cool down to beat the Las Vegas heat," writes Mayu at Oasis Las Vegas RV Resort.
Road conditions to dispersed sites: Access to natural areas requires preparation. At Kingman Wash, "The road is about 3 miles, but takes about 25 minutes to traverse. It's hilly, bumpy and holey. High clearance vehicle suggested, but we made it in a Kia Soul!" shares Amy G.
Security considerations: Casino campgrounds often offer enhanced security. "This RV park is gated with a person at the gate 24/7. The restrooms were very clean and the swimming pool was not crowded at all," reports Andrew W. about Las Vegas RV Resort.
Wildlife encounters: Some areas have unique animal residents. At Kingman Wash, "We had a good time here. We had two burros that visited us (please don't feed them!) and were a delightful change of wildlife from the bears and deer we are used to back home. You could hear them 'talking' near the water later that eve."
Age restrictions apply: Not all campgrounds welcome children. "Not family friendly at all!! You must be 18 or older to come here so it's cool for people without kids or families," warns Brittney C. about Las Vegas RV Resort.
Consider shoulder seasons: Extreme summer heat makes outdoor activities difficult with children. "Early morning or evening walks are best during summer months when ground temperatures can exceed 140°F by midday, making it unsafe for children's activities on asphalt or sand," advises a local ranger.
Book casino RV parks with amenities: Red Rock Canyon Campground provides a natural setting with recreational options. One camper notes, "love this campground!!!! A lot of nice hikes to go on and things to see. Always very clean and quiet as well! Just be careful if it's windy as the dust can kick up pretty bad."
Level site challenges: Many parks require significant leveling equipment. "Our spot was very hard to get level in even with auto level.. we had SO many leveling blocks under the back," reports Alyssa S. about Thousand Trails Las Vegas.
Tight spacing concerns: Site dimensions vary dramatically between campgrounds. "The spaces are very tight together partially because the occupants don't follow the site lines on the ground. We saw several that parked on the line and extended their slide outs into the area of the next RV'er, therefore, they were unable to extend their awning," explains a reviewer at Thousand Trails.
Electrical demands: Summer temperatures require reliable power. "They do upcharge a few bucks if you are using 50amp," notes a camper, important information when temperatures regularly exceed 100°F and air conditioners run continuously during daylight hours.
