Cute and convenient I-80 stop
This is a popular stop near the town of Ely (a couple miles north off the highway; the closest town is actually McGill). Because of its proximity to a major thoroughfare, and I guess what northern Nevada would consider a major town, it seems like it fills up quickly. There isn’t a lot of privacy…
Unexpected
Beautiful tailpipes and aspens with a flowing creek. Road is a bit rough up, have the trailer secured. Bathrooms were clean.
Location
Timber Creek Campground is located in Nevada
Directions
From McGill, travel north on Highway 93 for 5 miles. Turn on State Route 486 and continue 8 miles on the paved road. Turn left on Forest Road 425, at the Timber Creek sign, and drive up the dirt road another 3 miles to the campground.
