Timber Creek

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Hikers and creek-side campers have a straightforward setup at Timber Creek, a US Forest Service campground in Humboldt National Forest open from early June through mid-October. The campground has five large group sites and several single sites, with a creek running behind them. Trails climb the hills directly behind camp, giving access to valley views. Cell service is limited in this part of remote eastern Nevada. RVs up to 30 feet can drive in, and the site includes drinking water, toilets, picnic tables, and trash service. Those looking for campgrounds near Ely will find this a solid base for exploring the area's high desert terrain.

Gem in Eastern Nevada - Amazing Group Sites

Great find in remote eastern Nevada.  There are 5 very large group sites, and several single sites all with a creek running behind them.  There was even a wedding reception (lol) going on at the first few group sites while we were there.  There are some good hikes up the hills just behind the campground with creeks and great views of the valley.
