Very nice campground, we used for an overnight stay and didn't want to be close to the freeway. This was perfect, a little bit of a drive off the freeway (8 miles I think). Beautiful area up in the mountains a bit. Way nicer than staying on the freeway corridor. Probably not the best for bigger rigs, were 33' with a Ford F-350 crew cab and we managed ok, only found one site available that would fit into easily (it was close to dark and I didn't want to try to wiggle into a site). Luckily site 16 was available and was more than long enough and easy to back into. Amazing view of the snow covered mountains right from the trailer door. No trash service, pack it in and pack it out. Water available, but not "tested" and signs recommend boiling water 5-10 minutes. We had enough water in our trailer already for an overnight stay.

Sites were well maintained fire rings and tables and some sites had shade. Angel Lake was still closed when we came. Had bathrooms no water, and had drinking water available but not tested yet.
Stayed two nights enjoyed the stay, would do it again.

We camped here so we could drive up to Angel Lake and hike. The drive up to Angel Lake was not recommended by other users for large rigs, which we can confirm unless you knew you had a reserved site at Angel Lake to fit your rig. There were a couple of larger rigs up there, but to get there you will need to use the full road to maneuver around some of the corners. Drop-offs are severe.
Angel Creek is close to Wells, NV where you can dump, fill up with fuel, and buy groceries. All of which we needed to do. It is also within driving distance to the ghost town of Metropolis. An interesting place to visit.
It didn’t appear that the campground host stays in the campground, only services it, which she does a nice job and is friendly.
We dated in the lower loop which was full on the weekend, but the campground never fully filled.
We setup our cell booster and had 2-3 bars LTE on Verizon and 4 bars LTE on T-Mobile. Internet was slow but eventually worked.

We have stayed here three times so far as a place to stay as we go through Nevada. It is a really nice, clean, quiet campground that is high enough to escape the heat of the valley. We have a small trailer, so some of the sites are too small and better suited for a tent. The scenery is beautiful with lots of wild flowers. There is an occasional cow inhabiting a campsite, but they haven't been a problem. Reservations are advised as it does fill up on weekends.

Stayed in the double campsite because it had the best view of the mountains. It had a nice secluded area bordered by aspens and brush. Sadly, there was a bit of garbage, including cigarette buttes.

I had a $20 bill and had to fork over the three extra bucks because they didn’t have change. Firewood is available for like 5 or 6 bucks. Each site has a fire pit, bench, a spot for a car, and a spot for a tent. There are bathrooms (no sink). They’ve got some running water as well.
