    Iron Horse RV Resort

    Professionally kept RV Resort

    The  Iron Horse RV Resort in Elko, NV is a real gem in the Nevada desert. It's on the main highway parallel to I-80 on the north end of town. You have to keep your eyes open on the right side to catch the entrance signage. The Resort is tucked down a private road. The office folks were very professional.

    This RV Resort was extremely well kept and fairly quiet in the evening. Like many RV Resort these days, there are permanent or transient work related residents that are mostly out the perimeter sites.

    All sites have concrete patios, flat and level packed gravel pads, picnic tables and full hookups. There are even a series of mini bungalows.

    As you can see, Yoshi agrees!

    Iron Horse RV Resort, NV

    A beautifully laid out campground with gravel sites and nice landscaping. It’s nestled in the heart of Elko, Nevada, a short drive from the Ruby Mountains and a couple of smaller casinos and restaurants.

    The dog park was small, but well maintained and provided waste bags. There is also a spa/hot tub available to guests which is a nice addition. They have clean bathrooms and laundry available as well.

    Nice but noisy

    We spent a night in hot August here in our Westfalia camping van. There are no tent sites but cabins and RV spots. Nice bathrooms, showers, a playroom with a ping pong table. The cabins looked attractive. It looked like a lot of people were there long-term. It really is more for RVers and those that want to stay in a cabin. I would recommend, except there is a train that goes by at least two times and blows its horn (this on a Saturday night). The coyotes in the middle of the night were wonderful but the trains weren’t. Also I had trouble getting on the internet with my iPhone 6–couldn’t connect to their WiFi.

    Great price

    We only stayed here one night, it was just a half way stopping point for us going into Utah. What they consider to be a pool was extremely small. The pool and the jacuzzi were about the same size, however you do have full access to the Hilton next door. The Wi-Fi and the phone service here worked great. There are no fire pits and no fires are allowed. the park was extremely clean and well-maintained. And at the casino just down the street on a Friday night they had all-you-can-eat prime rib. very affordable prices. Would definitely return.

    Nice park

    This is a very nicely landscaped park with pull thrus and back ins. Each site has a concrete pad with a good picnic table (no butt splinters here).

    Perfect RV Dump/h20 Fill-up Spot

    We were just passing through and the people were super nice. $10 to use the facilities. We had lunch at a picnic table too. Didn’t stay but definitely would if we pass back this way. The park looked pretty darn nice. Nice shady trees in some spots. A must because it’s blazing hot.

    Great Place!

    Good amount of space, clean, nice playground, nice laundry area, pool table, ping pong, and other games. Has a “spa” but it’s a little disappointing. Just keep in mind it’s a spa not a pool. Office staff is friendly! Would for sure stay again!!

    Ultra Clean Traditional RV Park

    Stayed overnight here on the way back from Grand Teton. This is your basic RV park with RVs lined in neat rows side-by-side. The main office has a nice game room, laundry facilities and ultra clean bathrooms and showers. Nice leveled spots with concrete pads and some grass. Elko is a cool old Nevada town with, surprisingly, a lot to see. Please make sure to stop in at The Star Hotel for the best Basque dinner you will ever have! Bring your appetite cause it’s a TON of food!

What you should know
