Boulder Beach Campground — Lake Mead National Recreation Area

We stayed at 90,it's beautiful here. Peaceful,roomy,and beautiful landscape.

Easy reservations on recreation.gov, great campsite with bathroom and water access. No showers, but the price was great. Will be back for a longer stay.

We picked this campground for its proximity to a friend’s home in Lake Las Vegas; we enjoyed dinner with them and then headed to the campground (in the dark) for the evening. 

For quite some time, there had been no sites reserved at all but when we took a closer look at it several weeks before our stay, we found that all the best sites had already been snatched up! IMO, the best sites are D77, 79, 81, 83, 85, and 87 (for the best views of the lake). Site D65 had a sideways view of the lake and was on the end of the loop (so there was some traffic passing by). 

All sites were paved/concrete and mostly level. Sites were all in good condition. Many are back-to-back compromising privacy to a degree. A large concrete picnic table and fire ring complete each site. No hookups at all. 

The restrooms were basic but clean. No hooks, shelves, paper towels or hand dryers, or SOAP but for $10 (with the senior pass) I’m not going to complain too loudly. There is a dump station. It looks like there is a swimming beach, but I did not check it out. 

Overall, a very quiet campground(despite some generator use).

$20 per night no electric but has water, a dump station and clean bathrooms Some trails for walking and cycling about a mile from the beach and 3 miles from Hoover dam 

We enjoyed our time here, we had a spot overlooking the lake and saw the sunrise right in front of us, perfect!. It is quiet a way from the lake, and uphill on the way back, not walkable with all your picnic and swimming things. You can park lakeside but it's a rough road for RV's.

Staff were lovely, great little shop, nice T-shirts!

The laundry does not accept coins since covid, you can either download an App which didn't work on any of our 4 phones, or load a card to use in the machine, but needed to load a min of $25 to the card!!!. Madness. So couldn't do the wash we really needed (we were not willing to pay $25 for one wash!). This really needs sorting, several people we spoke to complained about it.

Also there is a weird set up in the shower area, there are no cubicles in which you can fit you and your clothes, you have to leave your clothes outside the shower. Not very private. There is another curtain which can be pulled across the 'changing area', but there are two showers, and if you don't know the person in the other shower you will still be sharing the changing area with them!! Needs updating.

Would recommend to pay for the front row lake view spots, worth the treat :-)

Easy to find, very clean, only 10 mins from Hoover Dam (worth seeing once in your life, go on the full 1 hr tour) and 25 mins from Las Vegas. 

Sadly there is no watersports hire on the beach (or none we could find) but you can book boat trips ahead of time from the marina and kayak the Colarado south of Hoover Dam. Google search for providers.

Nice clean campground the lake is about a 10 minute walk from the campground

Nice Campground with no hookups but the possibility do dump. Almost every slot has shade.

Arrived here after an adventure drive from Washington, camping along the way.

We have family in Boulder City and having the space 46 at Boulder Beach was fabulous.

Could hang with family, then head back to the Campground. Beautiful area, Campground is fabulous, very quite actually. Desert flowers in bloom. Able to do some Day Triping around the area. Great location.

Again at Boulder Beach! This is a favorite spot. Never disappoints!

Good spot near Vegas. Would only recommend in the late fall to early spring months as there are no hookups and this place would cook in the summer.

No full hookups, but water and dump on site! Love the views and how quiet it is. Being surrounded by eucalyptus trees was fragrent and beautiful.

We camp here regularly! Same great park but now has a reservation system that we like better. Although there are still 10 first come first served, the remainder are reservation only. Had a great time sharing thanksgiving with the family!

We stayed in the moon-RV park side. Much more roomy and shaded. Good cellular data with Verizon. You can use the RV park side laundry and store.

Have I said how much we love the place.

Took my kids and my mom camping for a little vacation away from the hustle and bustle of Las Vegas. I chose Boulder Beach campground as it was our first time and didn't want to be too far from home. It was perfect!! It was quiet, relaxing and no one was around us so it felt really secluded. At night we watched the bats flutter about and heard a lot of coyotes far off. When we woke in the morning, we had the most beautiful view of the lake. We absolutely loved it and can't wait to go again!! Only thing I wish we had access to were showers. There are bathrooms all over and water spigots really close to the campsites, but if you're tent camping plan ahead for no showers.

Stayed here for the second half of vacation. Lows in the 70s, highs in the 90s. Only thing is the new reservations required thing. Also did not see the camp host at all this visit. But it was still very pleasant.

I spent one night at this campground as I was passing through the area and assumed a campground this size would at least have shower facilities. It is a typical large more for RV than tent camping sites but was OK for a one night stay only because of the view (note only a few of the front sites have a decent view of the lake).

The campground has lots of trees, vocal birds, and free WiFi. I saw a rabbit, hummingbird, and even a roadrunner!

My partner and I stayed here last night. This morning, we decided to stay another night, so we paid again. We were going to leave the campground to go hiking, so we took a photo of our receipt on the site post in case someone removed it. Sure enough, when we returned later, a couple were in our site. There was no receipt on the post, but they clearly had been there long enough to set up a pop-up shelter. I told them we had paid for the site. The man said they chose the site because it was empty. I mentioned their receipt wasn't displayed, and he said he just hadn't put it up, but I suspected he was lying, so I went to the camp host. The host I talked to was friendly, and said the other host was actually driving around, so she would meet us at the site. I returned to the site to see the man driving away, so I thought he might be going to pay. The camp host arrived and asked the woman where their receipt was. She said the man left to pay. I told the camp host what happened, and she said she had taken our receipt because the site was unoccupied. I told her we had paid, but she yelled at us that we hadn't left anything at the site, so we would have to pick another one. We had specifically chosen that site for shade and proximity to the bathroom. I explained that we sleep in our car, so we didn't have a tent or trailer to leave, but she just kept yelling at us. Ironically, she didn't seem to care much that not only had the other couple not paid at all, but they even lied about it. The camp host later apologized, but made excuses for her behavior. (The thieves didn't apologize.)

I would not stay here again due to the ridiculous "occupy rule," lack of amenities (no soap in bathrooms and no showers), and large amount of RVs (despite an RV village available nearby).

Also, Boulder Beach sucks. I sunk into knee-deep mud just walking into the lake.

It’s a very large campground with a good amount of trees in some locations. There are plenty of bathrooms and places to get water, no showers though. Lots of places for RV’s to park, so keep this in mind when tent camping, there is a lot of people RV camping right next to you. I enjoyed the convenience of the location but it was not a quiet camp ground.

We live close by Lake Mead NRA and love to camp here for a quick wind down getaway.

Nice concrete pads with water and partial shade. Not too crowded. Beautifully groomed.

Camp has trees Pull through sites and back in sites. Campground full most of the time I was here in March

We went for a couple nites as a year end thing. To end 2020 on a good note. Found out quite a few spots, mostly pull thru, have their own water. This is a plus went wanting to leave the fresh tank empty for winter.

It’s a very nice camp a little crowded but people give you your privacy. They have internet but you have to pay for it and can only use PayPal. Would love to stay here again!!

Just beginning

Wonderful views of a beach that you can swim in 31 mile trail with other Trails off of it Hoover Dam it's about 6 mile walk from here super clean sites with clean bathrooms and great host say hi to Teddy she's the nicest

This review is for Lake Mead - Boulder Beach Campground.  Disperse Camping. No hookups.  We chose site 87 as it is a back in site with a beautiful view of Lake Mead.  Very level, paved site with some shade from the trees.  Only stayed one night as the RV got to hot during generator quiet hours 10 pm - 6 am. We had to pick up some trash left behind by previous campers.  AT&T and T-mobile coverage. Has running, walking, biking trails available. Near the Hoover Dam.  We visited the Marina Restaurant one night for dinner and drinks.  Good food and great service!  Would stay longer in the fall/winter months.

The Dyrt has the listing for the same spot. There are two completely different areas, the campground site is directly next to the RV village. The campground has potable water spots throughout and is completely shaded with lots of foliage. The RV village has a few permanent residents, but there are many spots in the front, rear and side of the village for rv campers. There was no tent camping in the RV village, but you can tent camp in the regular campground next to it. The best spots are right in front of the village, which had at least 20 spots that are able to be reserved. Full hookups in the RV village. All front spots are on concrete pads, so no guessing if your rig is balanced. There is a little general store on property and its also where you check in. Went in the spring, when the weather isn't too bad at Lake Mead. You can walk to the lake, but it is a looooong walk. You can drive your vehicle right onto the lake shore and park directly next to the lake. I did this a few times when there. It was great to back up the truck, open the tail gate and sit right on the lake shore. Boulder City is a short drive with plenty of food and activities to check out.

Went camping for the first time in mothers day weekend and we had a gd time the campground is clean the bathroom are clean

I purchased a travel trailer for my wife for her birthday and this was the first trip. We stayed at the NPR campground at Boulder beach. Campground was excellent! Potable water is close to all sites and all have partial shade. As we pay 10 per night with senior access it was perfect!
