Still quiet and cheap and convenient, EXCEPT for the generators which always seem to be running here during the permissible hours. But really, a $10 (or $5 for seniors) nice campground 16 miles from the edge of Las Vegas ... gotta take the bad with the good. Checks not accepted, so make sure to have that $5 bill!

Nice spot on the edge of the canyon, ideal for watching the full moon rise!

a real find for me! Just a perfect spot for my purposes. Quiet and cheap and convenient, quite close to Las Vegas and to Hoover Dam. Much more congenial to me than Boulder Beach Campground, which is one of those giant marina campgrounds like Echo Bay.
