This site is actually called the “Walker Lake Recreation Area” by BLM. Sportsman’s Beach is the camping area nearest the water (which is still 1/4 mile away at current lake level). There is an upper area near the highway and a lower area best suited to RVs. There is a $6 fee for camping. Dumpsters are available for trash.

A “No Camping Beyond This Point” sign is posted just off the highway.

This campground has been washed out by flash floods. The area is beautiful but no “campground” exists. There are 2-3 dispersed pullouts along the access but be forewarned if you attempt to reach this area in a vehicle without high clearance or with a trailer ( over maybe 12’ long) you will be sorely disappointed and in need of a tow.
