Boulder Beach Campground

I camped here for 7 nights so I could go see a few things in the area. It was pretty good place, quite and managed by really nice folks. I had good cell phone service her however, the WiFi for this camp just flat never worked the entire time I was there. I would camp here again but would make sure to save cell phone data so you can use it instead of the WiFi.

This is a dry camping only first come, first served BLM campground and $20/night (cash only). We really liked staying here even though it was very windy 4 of the 8 days we were there. We hiked the Historic Railroad Trail to the Hoover Dam, drove 60 miles north to Valley of Fire State Park, and it was easy to explore Las Vegas. No OTA TV channels, cellular was good with 3 bars AT&T, supposedly there was 3rd party WiFi available for purchase (expensive and not available at all sites). Restrooms were clean but had no showers. The sites were spacious and for the most part were level. We were in the “D” loop and had a great view of Lake Mead. When we were there, many sites were available each day. The campground has lots of trees/vegetation and the park had recently been renovated with new asphalt roads and cement pads. They are currently renovating the other side of the park and is expected to be completed by spring 2020.

We stayed here Sept. 4, our first night after picking up our rental RV. After we got our site we decided to see Hoover Dam as it was very close and with the sun setting it was beautiful. We came back to the campground after dark and only a few others were in the whole place. We saw jack rabbits in the morning and a road runner. The lake was pretty low but still pretty.

Flush toilet / water available / bathroom sink / no shower / table / fire pit / easy access / middle shade.

You have to pay 25$ to enter in the recreational area… America the beautiful pass accept. Campground is little bit noisy because a lot of people come here during week-end. Sanitaries have bathroom sink and flush toilets, there are clean. Sites have not a lot of shade, and lack a little of privacy. Try to be there early to have those with the lake view.

The real attraction of this campground is the Mead Lake: you can swim, water is really good and clean. After a hot day, or when you wake up, it's really pleasant! There is a nice beach just down the campground. The mineral landscape is amazing, especially at Sunset.

It's just 45mn from Las Vegas, it can be a good option if you don't want to take an hotel.

I stayed here three days. I got there early and was lucky enough to find a site that is closest to the beach. Great views. Place was very quite (occasional generator, but didn’t bother me), clean, level spots. I didn’t use the restroom as I have a self contained. From what i read there is no showers. Dump station was next to exist. Plenty of places to walk the dogs.
This is definitely on my list to stay again.

Lots of sites at this campground. Noise wasn’t bad at night and we were able to find a somewhat secluded spot showing up after 3pm on a Sat passing through. Worth the extra drive to get away from all the Vegas business. Our 2 year old loved the dinosaur adventure in Boulder City only about 10 min away. There are a few cute things over there, we went to ride out the heat of the day instead of running a generator for AC. The sunset was the best part! Magnificent! Would definitely stay here again. It’s all first come first serve and plenty of spots!

The campground is only 5mi from the Hoover Dam and 1mi from the waters edge of Lake Mead. All of the trails and some parts of the lake are dog friendly which is rare in a National Park. If you're looking for somewhere your pup can swim stay to the right of the Boulder Beach Swimming Area towards the "special event" beaches.

The park has free/open wi-fi through the National Parks Access Broadband. It was strong enough we streamed Netflix and were easily able to upload photos to social media. It is 4/15/19 and clearly it's still within the "spring break" window. Day time is full of families and lots of kids riding bikes, skateboards, etc...it can get a little noisy. By 9pm however everyone was settled for the night and we were easily able to fall asleep with all of the windows open.

The RV Park next door to the campground has full hook-ups but I hear that they charge for a "waters edge" spot...keep in mind the water level is about 1mi away from the edge of those sites.

In addition to the free wifi we had nearly full 4G service on Sprint and Verizon without the use of our Weboost. There is potable water at the very easily accessible dump station.
