Welcome Station RV Park

In the middle of the Nevada desert along I80, there's a nice RV oasis for a stopover for travelers.  Located just west of Wells, NV, this mom and pop run RV park has nice trees, grass and grounds including a pond.  There's a small store with goodies and wagyu locally raised beef.  We picked up some ribeye, t-bone and new york strip.  Woke up to blueberry muffins on our doorstep baked fresh by the hosts.  Would highly recommend. Highway noise was faint and not bothersome.  Spaces are a little close together, but it doesn't feel crowded.

One of the best camp grounds around. 95 when we pulled in 4pm. At our great site 86 and a wonderful breeze. No a/c needed. Steve and Nancy have it dialed in. We will be back.

Beautiful RV spots right off the freeway. Decently priced. Owned by a wife and husband who are very kind and helpful. Has a creek on the premises, showers, laundry. You can drink the water

Easy enough to reach from the freeway but that also meant it was very noisy, even from our spot further away and closer to the ‘nature’ end of the park. We had a very hard time falling and staying asleep due to large transit trucks flying by and hitting every pot hole and groove all night long. Spots are a little closer together than most would probably prefer but that didn’t change usability. The facilities were clean, functional, and we appreciated that the bathrooms were locked and also well heated. Wi-Fi was decent if you have to work occasionally like I did. Owners were nice enough but atheists/non-religious folks beware; they will be giving you a born-again agenda/proselytizing book upon arrival. This made us uncomfortable and we wished we had known before booking. It was a very short overnight stay so didn’t get to participate in any of the scavenger hunting or other games they have set up.

What a beautiful little place! Green grass all over, and big shady trees. Called in just before closing and they had a site available for the night. When we arrived, they came out to meet us and escorted us to our site: pull through, full hookups. Very friendly. Sites are long and narrow, room for the slide but you’re in your neighbor’s picnic table area. Can hear the freeway noise but it’s fairly constant so it was easy to tune out. Would definitely stay here again.

Highly recommend very friendly staff and awsome views

A wonderful place. Such a beautiful view out our back window. The grounds are the best part. Grass, trees, and a little stream running through. Best spots are the back-ins if you have a back window to look out. I want to come back for a week. But be prepared before you come. Just one grocery, a hardware store and Family Dollar - 8 miles away. That's it. But there is plenty of rest and relaxation available, no need to leave.

This is a tiny gem in the middle of the desert! It’s so deceiving even as your getting off of I-80 it looks kinda like a dump. It’s small but very pretty and relaxing. No pool, no kids playground, just beautiful grass, trees, and a little creek! It does have full hook-ups, bathrooms, a laundry room, and a tiny little store where they sell ice cream and home grown beef from the local ranchers!

Nancy and Steve, the owners, are just wonderful. It's seconds off of I-80. Yes, there's some traffic noise, but I don't care. I love it anyway. The bathrooms, showers and laundry room are all spotless. There are several pull thrus, multiple backin spots, and there are also a few tent areas. It's a small, older RV park and the spaces are close together. Again, I don't care about that. The acerage is covered with old trees, lush green grass, and a beautiful brook running through it. People describe it as an oasis and, to me, that's completely appropriate. I've stayed there 3 times over a two yr period and I will again if my trip takes me their way.

Welcome Station is the perfect stopping place between Idaho and places to the south! Just when you thought stopping in Wells was icky, drive a few miles west to the BEST little park operated by the friendliest people! Carefully tended grass, huge trees, a creek, beautiful flowers... just what you need when you're sick of driving in desert! Full hookups, quaint, clean restrooms - even a museum! Steve and Nancy are the greatest!

This little gem is an oasis of green grass and good shade. The rv spaces are a little close together but the expansive open green grass areas make up for it. The gardens and lawns are immaculate and the owners are very welcoming. We messed up our reservation on line (wrong day). The owner called when we did not arrive and graciously moved us to the next day.

Convenient stop, nice folks. We stop here when we are trying to get the heck out of the heat, and ususlly manage to get this far on the first day of driving. It's a sweet little spot; green and cool. Cute gardens and streams running through the property. In the middle of no where, but a great first stop when you are trying to get north.

Very pleasant RV campground in a grove of trees. Sites are close together, but friendly hosts and fellow campers make up for close quarters. Nicest. cleanest bathrooms we've seen in our travels. Beautiful shaded grounds with a mountain stream flowing along the edge of the campground. We stayed 2 nights and were glad we did.

We were able to to get a pill thru site for our 42 foot toy hauler. First night was great, and we had good views from our windows. The following nights we had neighbors, and slide outs were nearly touching, and require you to (for privacy) keep your shades drawn. The gardens, stream, pond, and very knowledgeable and friendly hosts make up for it.

Nice place to visit ghosts towns, and see Elko “ Star hotel “ for a real live basque meal ( a once in a lifetime meal) if you are lucky.

The perfect spot after a long day on the road. Nancy and Steve are wonderful hosts and the experience was such a positive one from the first phone call through our stay. Steve met us at the entrance and escorted us to our site. The grounds are very well groomed and there is ample room to relax in the shade or walk by the creek. Try the cute ladybug scavenger hunt if you have little ones….or even if you don’t have kids. It’s a great way to experience the property,

We’re likely to stay here again on our return trip.

This was an amazing surprise in the Starr Valley. After a long drive through a lot of desert, we were weary of this RV park. We were not only surprised and pleased with the lush green campground, but the stream and welcoming hosts made the campground one of the best! It is a gem in the desert. And we even got muffins in the morning! There were full hook ups and clean bathrooms and showers. There was even a free small Museum on site about the place.

We were traveling across the country as a family of eight in a tent. Called the same day upon arrival and was able to get a tent site. Planned to stay just one night and ended of staying three! This truly is an oasis in the desert. Beautiful kept grass, sites, bathrooms...great creek to play in and many places on the property to rest and just be. The owners and additional staff members are so kind and we loved meeting them all. They are all invested in this campground and it shows! We are from Virginia so we most likely will not pass this way again but if this place was closer to us, we'd be here all the time and recommend it to everyone!!

I got in just before sundown and was greeted by the owner. I booked online only hours before I arrived midweek (apparently the weekends are busier). I loved the creek and the clean well water. The men’s showers and bathrooms were squeaky clean! I really liked the garden near the creek where they were growing ingredients for strawberry rhubarb pie! Ummmm!

It's an Osis in the desert. Great place to stay and enjoy the cold breeze and night sky.

Compared to the surround areas, this place was truly an oasis in the desert as others have said. The hosts were super nice. One can see that they have put some work into this campground to make it so nice and pleasant. We were very glad that we made a two night reservation. This is a great place to lay over and visit the Lamoille Canyon which is known as the Swiss Alps of Nevada. It is located just south of Elko. There is a little train noise - blowing the horn when it gets to Wells, but this all stops in the evening. Some highway noise, but not enough to bother.

A lovingly tended oasis in the i80 desert. A year round creek, walking path, cows to wake up to, mountain views. On the way to California but the kids asked if we could just spend our vacation here 😂 Charming hosts brought us warm homemade muffins in the morning ...!

Grass everywhere! In a desert environment. Clean and functional showers and bathroom. Very inexpensive to park on the grass and throw up a tent or sleep out. I-80 noise is ever present so be prepared. Street facade is not as nice as the reality inside so go for it.

The owners, Steve and Nancy, have done a lot with this little campground to make it so beautiful and well kept. There were tree swings, benches along a stream, a garden, and beautiful vistas. The spots are mostly grass, which is nice. It’s a true diamond in the rough.
