Spread out and free

Great for a stop over for sure. Folks here for the water (low) and ATV. A quiet night and can’t get better for free!

Nice scenery in Nevada

Great free campground.  There's a dirt road going around the reservoir and one can go for a long walk.  (Driving a subaru impreza hatchback with 5.1 inches ground clearance.)

Windy but nice views

Free campsites along the reservoir, windy up on the high spots. Fire pits, picnic tables (some with shade) and wind fences. Great views, better for campervan or RV camping just because of the high wind and no pads, but you could do it. No cell coverage on sprint or Verizon while here.
