Vanderbilt Pond Road

As described in the previous review, this place is quiet and has a lovely view of wild birds and donkeys. It was also easy to access from the highway but the noise never bothered us.

This is locally known as Bombo's Pond, It is on BLM land with no permit required.  Guessing you need a license to fish.  Not sure.  This is a beautiful spot however I did take one star for the cell service.  I only had one bar on T Mobile with my cell booster.  Otherwise, it was an awesome spot.  I was there at the end of May.  Since it was already getting hot, I only stayed one night, It's 5 minutes from Beatty where you can find all the services you need. No amenities whatsoever.  When you pull in the pond is on the right with a large flat area you can use or drive towards the pond and there's a road to the left that takes you down to an area that looks like group camping right by the water.  There were about 15 burros with babies hanging out there.  There is a road to the right as well, but it is a dead end because of a deep wash. You can get around it walking if you go towards the water carefully and duck some brush to get back up on the trail.  I decided to move there for the shade but I backed my 28 ft Class C to the end of the road so I could just pull out the next day.  Little tight on the turn. Be aware this puts you right by the highway, but I had no issues with road noise.  The pond is larger than I expected.  Lots of trees, water plants, and birds. Several hiking trails.  Just watch where you step for the burro road apples.  Lol! Would definitely stay again.
