Peavine Campground, near Round Mountain, Nevada, is a cozy spot that offers a peaceful escape for those looking to unwind in nature. With its picturesque setting alongside a creek and surrounded by mountains, it’s perfect for tent camping or small RVs, though big rigs might struggle to find a suitable spot.
Visitors often rave about the tranquility of the area, with one camper noting, “It was so quiet and peaceful with the creek running through it.” The campground features picnic tables and fire rings, making it easy to enjoy meals outdoors and gather around the fire at night. Just remember to bring your own firewood and water, as amenities are limited.
For those eager to explore, there are trails nearby, and the Arc Dome Wilderness Area is just a short trip away. While cell service is spotty, this adds to the charm, allowing you to truly disconnect and soak in the natural beauty. Just be prepared for cooler temperatures at night, especially in the fall, as one reviewer suggested bringing heavy sleeping bags.
Though the roads can be a bit overgrown, they’re manageable for most vehicles, and the secluded vibe means you’ll likely have the place to yourself. Whether you’re camping solo or with friends, Peavine Campground offers a laid-back atmosphere that’s hard to beat.
