Lahontan Campground is located on the shores of the Lahontan Reservoir, at Silver Springs Beach.

The park temperature reaches the 90’s in the summer, so take a swim in the cool reservoir waters. Boating and fishing are also really popular here. Bring your canoe and paddle from Fort Churchill to the lake for a fun way to explore the park! Cottonwood and willows offer some shade from the sun. The campground is near bald eagle nesting sites, and you may also catch glimpses of wild horses here, so bring your camera!

Sunshine, Serenity and Sierras

1 site ¡ RV, Tent12 acres ¡ Reno, NV
We love to pass our free time here in the sunshine and juniper drafts overlooking the Sierras. Some days we watch the electric storms across the valley, other afternoons we picnic and nap while listening to the birds and wind.  We love the peace and silence, which feels remarkably remote and only 20 minutes from Reno.  Learn more about this land: We would love to share our 12 junipered acres with nature enthusiasts like ourselves. Bring your tent or camper and spend afternoons watching beautiful sunsets and wildlife from our land.  Spectacular expansive views across the valley to the Sierras and Mount Rose.  Conveniently 15 minutes from South Reno (40 minutes from North Lake Tahoe), the silence and absolute privacy here are restorative and replenishing.  We do not have trash collection services available and we ask all guest to practice a “leave no trace” philosophy.  **Because of extreme fire risk in our area we ask guests to refrain from having campfires for now. As this area is home to beautiful wildlife (and a few other distant homeowners) please visit with an intent to respect the quiet and privacy that makes this area so pleasurable for us all.  Thanks for visiting and enjoy your time!
