Stopped as we traveled across Nevada. Stayed below the dam. A bit busy but quiet at night. No cell below the dam but there is in the upper sites on the hill. Free dump with water across the road using the red hose bibs.

We got a quiet spot away from the dam near a boat launch, but few were there so it was so quiet and serene. Only power hookups, but there are water taps in between every 2 sites. The lake was surprisingly clear and refreshing even in July!

Peaceful place to spend a night without the noise from I-80. We did not put our booster antenna up for a one night stop and therefore had no cell or data signal for either Verizon or AT&T. As soon as we crossed the dam in the morning, the signal returned so it's possible with our booster that we might have had some coverage.

First campground below the dam crowded but had bathrooms and showers. Also free dump site. I stayed in the west cg with only two other RVs. Beautiful site on the lake with trails and gorgeous views. Water available but toilets and shower closed till May. One porta potty but it was almost overflowing. Why they charge without providing at least a funtioning toilet is beyond me. Otherwise I loved this place. Gravel, level sites. Covered picnic tables and fire pits. Paved road in. Go to the last campground.

Great stopover spot along the dry long expanse of I80 in Northern Nevada. The River campground below the dam was beautiful late September. No sign of flooding as mentioned above. The sage bushes are redolent in the late afternoon sun. There is good access to river for kayaking or swimming at the far end of the campground. Vault toilets. A few sites have water hookups and one site has full hookups including sewer! $14 non residents and $12 residents. No discounts. I had one bar of AT&T which stretched to four with my booster. Great spot for short stay.

Could be nice if you get a good spot. It was flooded in the lower campground loop. Several "On/above the River" sites or you can't see the river. Two loops, upper and lower. lower, albeit flooded a the time, looked to be the best ones. There's also a possible space at the top south of road, just wide open. Also, across on the West side... more

Two loops, upper and lower. lower, albeit flooded a the time, looked to be the best ones. There's also a possible space at the top south of road, just wide open. Also, across on the West side looked to be some better spots. East side of dam is for tent campers, but small units might be able to go, dunno. Has Restrooms, showers, Dump N Fill. Able to walk to dam to watch the water flow..

We needed an overnight stop between Lake Tahoe and our ongoing journey to Wyoming. As an alternative to the RV parks of Winnemuca or Lovelock, this is a great find. It's just a mile or two off the freeway but with no freeway noise, and serves as a little oasis in an otherwise uninspiring landscape.
The Riverside campground is a better choice than the West side campground, which is mostly just gravel. We found a beautiful spot right by the water which was roomy enough that we didn't have to unhitch. We sat and watch tons of wildlife from our site, seeing deer, coyotes, turkeys and lively jumping fish.
There are a few short trails, and a beach where people were swimming. The campground has showers and restrooms.
Not a lot to keep you occupied here, but perfect for an overnight stopover.
