Havens Ranch

19 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents154 acres · Winnemucca, NV
Havens Ranch is a 154 acres in the Humboldt river valley just 10 minutes outside of Winnemucca, NV. We have a small outdoor wedding venue, and only rent our spaces when we are not hosting an event. You are welcome to utilize the grounds and facilities, which include a beautifully landscaped lawn, historic buildings and modern plumed bathrooms. We also provide access to fresh well water and use of our large fire pits! **Please note that our bathrooms are not insulated and so we winterize the plumbing the in the colder months and will instead be providing a porta-john. There will still be potable running water available at the spigot. ** The river is a short walk away, and our longhorn cattle will most likely be grazing in the adjacent field. We have incredible sunsets and a variety of wildlife living on the property. This is a great space to get away from the city for a weekend, or camp for a night on your way through town. We have both a guest suite and several camping spaces available. It's a large property and we love to share it! If you are looking for outdoor activities, we are just minutes away from the Winnemucca Dunes OHV area (also great for hiking!), Water Canyon rec site, the Bloody Shins mountain biking trail system, and about an hour away from the Paradise Valley rock climbing area. We are 10 minutes from Winnemucca, about half way between Reno and Elko.

Star Gaze Ranch

1 site · Lodging15 acres · Winnemucca, NV
Looking for a peaceful retreat with wide-open skies, mountain views, and just enough comfort to stay cozy? Welcome to our high-desert glamp site near Winnemucca, Nevada - a private, off-grid hideaway for campers who crave space, solitude, and a sky full of stars. We also have a place for your horses and pets if needed! Set on open land just 15 minutes from town, this spacious canvas tent offers rustic charm with modern touches: a real queen-size bed, solar lighting, and warm, western-inspired décor. Unlike crowded campgrounds, you’ll have the entire site to yourself - no neighbors, no noise, just sagebrush, mountains, and stillness. Wake up to the scent of fresh desert air and birdsong. Sip your coffee at the picnic bench while the sun rises over the peaks. Spend the day hiking nearby trails, watching horses roam, or exploring local ranchland. In the evening, settle in for epic sunsets and quiet nights by the fire (in winter), or take in some of the clearest stargazing Nevada has to offer. You’ll have your own private area with free parking, outdoor seating, and an indoor “loo” for convenience - so you can focus on relaxing, not roughing it. Optional add-ons like a fresh egg breakfast sandwich or a horse meet-and-greet are available for an extra taste of ranch life. Whether you're a weekend wanderer, road-tripper, or just in need of a quiet reset, this land offers something rare: real Nevada skies, total privacy, and space to just be.
