General Information
Great Basin National Park has four developed campgrounds with vault toilets, picnic tables, tent pads, and campfire grills. There are no hookups or leveled parking sites. Campsites are limited to eight people, three tents, and two vehicles per site. There are three campgrounds that have accessible sites.
There are also two primitive campgrounds along Snake Creek and Strawberry Creek Roads. Sites have picnic tables and fire rings.
Lower Lehman Creek is the only campground open year round. Other campgrounds are generally open from May until October, weather permitting. Water may not be available early and late in the season, and is not available in the winter at Lower Lehman Creek. Fees are reduced if water is not available. Since exact opening and closing dates are dependent on weather conditions, contact a visitor center at (775) 234-7331 or check the current conditions for information specific to your arrival date.
Reservations
All park camping is on a first-come, first-served basis. No reservations can be made, except for the Grey Cliffs Group Campground. Campsites may not be "saved" or reserved for family or friends arriving later. Campgrounds often fill on weekends and holidays in the summer months. Visitors are advised to find a campsite early in the day.
Camping Fees
$12.00 for developed campgrounds per night/per site.
$6.00 for Golden Age/Golden Access card holders.
Primitive campgrounds have no fee.
Group Camping
Large groups can be accomodated at the Grey Cliffs Group Campground. Three designated group sites provide privacy, and ensure that groups do not disturb campers in the regular campgrounds. Go to the Group Camping page for more information.
