Twenty Mile Beach

We had planned to stay at Twenty Mile Beach for a week, but the house flies and sand flies sent us packing.

When we arrived, we unhitched from the trailer near the dumpster to scout out a spot. If you turned right, there was a fantastic spot at the end that was large enough to accommodate a couple rigs, flat and had a great view. Unfortunately, it was already occupied.

To the left, there was also a spot at the end, but less appealing than the one to the right, and could also accommodate a couple rigs. There are also a couple pull-throughs in either direction.

We ended up going straight toward the water. The sandy road was fine for our 4WD truck, but while we were there, we saw a 2WD truck towing a trailer get stuck and it took them hours to get out.

This spot is fine for an overnight, and quite possibly could be ok for a longer stay if there's an off-season for the flies.

We were our way home (Oregon) from Death Valley. This was so easy to find and lots of places or RV's. We were there on a Thursday night. We got level without unhitching. There were a couple blacktopped "Roads", but we drove closer to the waterfront - needed 4W drive.
As far as cleanliness, there is a dumpster that I am sure helps keep it as clean as it is. The only problem is that there is quite a bit of broken bottle pieces - maybe from people target practicing?

We had an awesome site. There is too much loose sand and dirt if you want to be closer to the water. Beware! We saw three vehicles get stuck. Our campsite was to the left on the road (left of the dumpster). Looks like we got one of the better sites. Someone made a makeshift fire pit but we got rid off and made some major improvements. Hopefully it is still there for others to enjoy. We pretty much had the place to ourselves. Some RVs would come in and stay one night. We also had some tent campers. There are two vault toilets (pretty clean) and one dumpster. The dumpster got emptied when we were there. Be sure to bring your fly swatter. Lots of flies and we were not even near the toilets. We wouldn't recommend swimming in the water. Heard there is a lot of alkalinity and locals stated they don't swim in it. We did see a kayaker. Town of Hawthorne is about 20 minutes away. They have pretty much all the amenities. Overall it was a very peaceful site with beautiful views and we would definitely stay here again even with the flies.

Happened upon Walker Lake while making my way from Reno, NV to Las Vegas, NV on a route I hadn't taken before to visit my daughter. The sun was starting to go down, so it was time to find a place to camp for the night before it got dark. Was so happy I pulled off the road here. Camped down toward the waters edge. There were only a couple of other RVs scattered around the area. I loved the solitude, the quiet and the sense of peace I get when in Nature, where mountains, an expanse of water and sky dominate the landscape. The winds were strong and I was rocked to sleep, like a baby in a cradle, in my trusty Roadtrek "Bella Ella." In the morning there were whitecaps on the lake.

This BLM site is a gem! Located on the NE shore of Walker Lake, several miles north of Hawthorne, NV, right off of US 95. Easy access, large dispersed sites, great views We liked it so much that we stayed an extra day. Very clean pit toilets, large dumpster, clean area. Only drawback is the sounds from the trucks on the highway but even those weren't bad. We will be back!

Easy access on a gravel graded road. Some washboarding but not too bad, had no problems getting in with a large rig.

I stayed at the gravel pull-thru site located between the pit toilet and the lake, or if you're adventurous or have a smaller rig there is a decent road and sites closer to the lake. The GPS coordinates for the pull-thru site are 38.755967,-118.759542

Decent AT&T coverage, mostly 3G but will switch to 4G sometimes.
