Lake Mead RV Village at Boulder Beach

There are two parks here, Boulder Beach is a National Park campground with no hook-ups and I heard the women in the office say you must have exact change and it is first come, first serve. Lake Mead RV Park is a private park, costs more per night, but has full hook-ups and clean bathrooms/showers. I didn't use the laundry room. The sites are gravel but was pretty level. The sites alternate in directions, are really long, and are really close together, so someone with slides next to another with slides, would need to maneuver in such a way to not hit the neighbor. The service is great, nice staff. The VIEW is beautiful. Well maintained and clean. Cell phone service was minimal, barely worked. The wifi they offered did not work. The park was pretty easy to navigate. And you cannot beat the location. Make sure you take the Northshore Drive (HWY 147), it offers amazing scenery and when you come out at the other end you are by Valley of Fire state park, so make sure to visit that area, the scenery was beautiful, they do close the park during hot days.

This is a huge mobil home/RV village with a couple hundred old-style mobile homes from the 1960's and many long term " snowbirds" in nicer RV's...There is a couple loops for us short term "campers".
All rock and gravel sites, old bumpy asphalt roads. Mantinance has not been done here for decades it seems. We came here for the full hook-ups, laundry, showers etc the only reason...The shower room was old, beat up with leaks under the sinks, 1 of 2 shower stall handle was upside down with either scalding hot or freezing cold and no in-between, again needs maintenance. We picked up trash on the grounds , I must have picked up 30 cigarette butts in our site #836 alone. We did meet so many nice residents here. And the staff were nice and helpful too. Just clean this place up and work on the bath houses! Not a recommended place...

However the adjacent Lake Mead Rec Area Boulder Beach Campground ( literally right next door ) is much nicer (but without hookups or showers) And has beautiful trees and bushes even. We recommend staying here not at the RV Village section if possible.

Called the morning of arrival to see if we could come in early as we were only about 1.5 hours away due to poor planning i.e. hard to get last minute reservations near the Grand Canyon South Rim. They let us come in before noon with no charge! We went right into the National Park area that showed up as a toll road on our RV GPS. It was no charge as we have the Access Pass. Campground (CG) check in was quick and easy. Since we were early they said we could wait for the escort who came on duty about 15 minutes later or proceed to our spot. We headed on to Lake View site 24 that was an easy back-in with FHUs. The utilities were spaced a bit far from the site and towards the back so I needed about 22’ of sewer hose and 25’ of electric and water hose. All of the lake view sites are made so you can either back in or pull in with utilities available on both sides. We had a beautiful site with great view of Lake Mead and mountain views. The very nice & helpful escort lady, Cindy, came by to ensure we were situated and gave us the unique rules like vehicles must be parked at the same angle as your RV (not crossway across the site) so the mobile home residents across the street can see the lake. The fire pit was at the utility side back corner of the site. They give you one WiFi log-in for free but you can call a number to buy a week's worth of data and ask to have it available for three devices for $14 a week. We hooked our Weingard Connect 2.0 into the WiFi and that ran our devices just fine. WiFi was fairly good for this size CG. They have cable with a lot of stations but some are admittedly a little fuzzy down on the Lake View row, but watchable. We checked OTA channels and only got four and they were also fuzzy. Great place to overnight or spend a few days like we did exploring Hoover Dam and Boulder City. If you like a great cheeseburger, check out the Pit Stop’s Pit Burger in Boulder City just up the road. They also have other goodies on their menu plus outstanding service! Even with a few hiccups, the service and views make this a highly rated CG for us.

Most of the staff here were very friendly and helpful. The site itself has a stunning view of the lake. The pads are set up kinda screwy in that the power is on the starboard side of the camper, but here is an outlet on the normal port side. Just took a bit to understand how it all connected. The wind does kick up here so be sure things are secured while in camp and away.

Some awesome hikes all around the location and it's super close to the dam. We recommend doing the Train Tunnel hike which is about a 4 mile one way hike utilizing the old train system that was used to build the dam. Bring WATER!

The only reason I didn't give this a five star had to do with a package I had sent to the facility, which contained my CPAP. Kinda need that. First, they said I couldn't have anything mailed to the facility... then they said okay. Then when the package arrived, the sent it back. When we inquired about this, they said we couldn't have packages sent to us. OMG.. so frustrating.

Over all, it's a good camp site. Pads are far enough apart... good water pressure.

The staff here were great! I originally was planning to stay three nights but had to cut my trip short so I was only able to stay one. They were very flexible and had no problem with my unexpected changes. I thoroughly enjoyed the lakeside site. My pup and I were able to walk down to the water (yes, it was about a mile walk one way) and sit on the beach during the sunrise. Gorgeous!

My wife and I stayed here 3 nights, We were parked on on of the spot that backed up to the lake. Our spot was clean and spacious. The spots on the water are by far superior to the others. We placed our chairs facing the lake. Nice vantage point. The restrooms and laundry were ok from what I saw (we didn't use them). The staff was courteous. We'll stay here again if we can get a water facing spot-4 stars. The other spots are 2 stars.
