Garden Oasis in the Heart of Vegas

1 site · RV2 acres · Las Vegas, NV
Our property sits on 2 acres in the heart of Las Vegas. It is one of the original homesteads of Las Vegas which we are trying to take back to a homestead. The original owners of the property played a huge hand in the building of Vegas. As we have cleaned up the property treasures of a 100 years ago have been found all over the property. On the property you will find a huge garden out front that you are welcome to pick from. We also have over 50 trees on the property you are welcome to walk around and enjoy. If you find yourself in the duck coop or the chicken coop and find an egg you are welcome to enjoy it. Feel free to enjoy the pool, bbq and outside bathroom which has a shower, and full size washer and dryers. We are a smoke/drug free site please be respectful of this rule and violators will be asked to leave without refund. Because we are a "working hobby farm" you will see some weeds and you may even see a project or two we are working on, feel free to join in but please be understanding that in order for us to improve things it will get little messy and can take time to complete. Also, please check the weather before you book, Vegas if very hot during the summer months, if your rig doesn't have AC you will not be comfortable as night temps can be easily over 100.

Mom's RV Spot

2 sites · RVs1 acre · Las Vegas, NV
Welcoming camp experience in the Las Vegas area. Private RV spot tucked away on a large lot in a quiet neighborhood, yet only 15 minutes to the downtown Fremont Street Experience, and about 25 minutes to the large strip properties like Caesars Palace and MGM. Las Vegas has a lot to offer, but we have you covered with the RV spot. We are in the NW valley with wonderful views of the surrounding mountains. When the sun goes down over the Spring Mountains and Mount Charleston beautiful colors illuminate evening clouds. We are in somewhat of a rural area, so you might see bats in the evening, and bunnies in the morning. We have even seen coyote, owl, and of course lots of geese flying between golf courses in the morning during many months of the year. We are away from the city lights, so nighttime can be quite dark, but the moon can be a spectacular site in the night sky. Red Rock Canyon is 16 miles away. Many of our guests enjoy the scenic beauty or climbing opportunities in Red Rock. Nevada's newest state park, Ice Age Fossils State Park, is just a few miles away and offers a glimpse into prehistoric time in the region. If you enjoy ziplining then check out Slotzilla at Fremont Street or on the Las Vegas strip at the LINQ. Our Hipcamp comes equipped with water, electrical service (both 30amp and 50amp), and a sewer connection.

Camping near Las Vegas with campfires guide

Overview

Las Vegas may be best known for its neon lights, casinos, and entertainment, but it also offers a surprising number of options for outdoor adventures. Within just an hour of the Strip, you can go hiking, biking, rock climbing, horseback riding, and off-roading on epic terrain, and enjoy all sorts of water activities. Even snow sports can be found nearby in winter. Camping options are just as diverse, from casino-affiliated and independent RV parks full of amenities within city limits, to dispersed and developed national park and state park campgrounds in and near the desert, mountains, and lakes.

Where to go

Las Vegas and Vicinity

Camping options inside Las Vegas are limited to private RV parks and resorts, including some that come with casino amenities and full hookups. Just 20 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip is the Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, which offers fantastic rock climbing, hiking, biking, and horseback riding. One seasonal campground offers space for tents, RVs, and groups. Campers can also overnight in the backcountry above 5,000 feet or get bivy permits to stay overnight on climbing walls and summit areas. For wildlife and free primitive, backcountry, and dispersed car camping, head north to the massive Desert National Wildlife Refuge.

Valley of Fire State Park

Set 50 miles northeast of Las Vegas and just 6 miles from Lake Mead National Recreation area, Valley of Fire State Park is known for its surreal red sandstone terrain of canyons and cliffs in the Mojave Desert. There are two campgrounds inside the park for tent and RV camping, including one open year-round. Dispersed camping options can also be found just outside the west and east entrances to the park.

Lake Mead National Recreation Area

Lake Mead National Recreation Area offers 1.5 million acres of mountains, canyons and two lakes, Lake Mead and Lake Mohave. Getting out on the water is the main draw here, though biking and hiking trails are also available. More than a dozen national park and concessionaire-run campgrounds offer around 900 tents and RV sites, including the convenient Boulder Beach Campground just minutes from Las Vegas. Campers can also enjoy vehicle, horseback, shoreline, and backcountry camping.

Spring Mountains National Recreation Area

Just 30 minutes from Las Vegas, Mount Charleston, as the area is better known, is part of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest. With snow-capped peaks, it’s a local favorite for escaping the desert and summer heat, and to go hiking, biking, and rock climbing. There’s a ski resort in the winter. Several developed campgrounds offer tent and RV sites, including the year-round Fletcher View Campground. Cabins are available at the Mount Charleston Lodge, while three wilderness areas are nearby for campers seeking solitude.

When to go

Summer is the most popular time for visiting the Lake Mead area. Summer temperatures can be brutally hot, making it unsafe for most other outdoor recreation, and many desert campgrounds will be closed. Spring and fall offer the best weather for being active outdoors, when camping is especially popular. In winter, head to Mount Charleston and the Spring Mountains to enjoy snow sports.
