North Campground — Echo Canyon State Park

North Campground — Echo Canyon State Park, near Pioche, Nevada, is a great place for those looking to enjoy the outdoors with a bit of comfort. The sites are nicely spaced out, each with its own water access point, making it easy to set up camp and enjoy the natural surroundings.

This campground is perfect for fishing enthusiasts, with easy access to the reservoir just a short walk away. Visitors have reported catching a good number of fish, including bass and crappie, which adds to the fun of your stay. As one happy camper noted, “If you need to throw up a tent and wake up before dawn to go fishing, this is the place.”

Amenities include clean bathrooms and a centrally located fire ring, which is ideal for evening gatherings. Some campers have mentioned the presence of a little library on-site, providing a nice touch for those who want to unwind with a good book after a day of exploring.

4 stars campsites 1 star lake...

Was excited to finally make it to this lake. First, the camping sites are spaced out and each has a water access point. Plenty of shade on almost all sites. Staying near the top will give you easy access to the trails. Secondly, the sad sad sad lake....the water was sooooooo low, muddy all around the shores and lots of thick water vegetation that it would be near impossible to fish without breaking your fishing lines, let alone catch anything. Only 3 campsites occupied on the weekend.

Nice weekend getaway

We had site #6 - campground was not crowded, lots of empty spots. Easy walk to the reservoir. Large area for a tent, a centrally located fire ring and bbq. Each site had a nice covered table. We did have to kill a couple black widows that had setup shop under the table. And day 2 we fought some tiny little gnats that left some nasty bite marks on both of the dogs. bring bug spray in future All that did not put a damper on our visit. Bathrooms were an easy walk, and clean. The little library was great and had a nice selection and the Family had no problems catching fish (10 bass & 1 crappie) on this visit. We will be back.

Great weekend fishing trip

If you need to throw up a tent and wake up before dawn to go fishing this is the place. Enjoy some of the darkest and clearest night sky. Enjoy being along the shore with a fishing pole and pulling in some trout. And no need to build a latrine, there is a fully functioning bathroom at the camp grounds.
