This picture was taken in front of the Brownhouse adjacent to the campground. One early morning.

1 night at Water front on Topaz Lake

We booked upon arrival and tent camped for one night. We l thoroughly enjoyed our time. The bathrooms and showers were extremely clean as well as the entire site. We bought ice for $3 which was convenient. the site came with a fire pit a picnic table and hookups for water and RV electric hookup. We used the kayaks next day to enjoy the water before checking out. 10/10 experience

1 night at #1 Night Skies, UFOs, & Jets

A simple spot w/a great view of the skies. Perfect for a night’s stay on my travels. Had I brought firewood, the fire pit would have been used for sure. No cell reception (T-Mobile), but the directions were clear and I had no trouble getting there. If one is counting on cell service for directions moving onward, I suggest writing down/printing/screen shots while in cell reception in preparation for departure.

1 night at The Alchemist

Ideal spot and very welcoming! Highly recommended.

1 night at Model Farm

Fun night at the Model Farm. Rustic but charming, highlighted by the pond full of ducks and all the birds! Julie and Tom were flexible about where we wanted to set up - we chose across the pond as a windbreak and for more privacy. Yes, there are a lot of dogs, but after their raucous welcome, no problem with sound or interfering with our dog. Thanks for your hospitlity!

1 night at Havens Ranch

The entry to this property, with its chaotic assemblage of old and new equipment, camouflages the peaceful vista that awaits when you drop over the hill toward the camping area. A beautiful grass lawn under tasteful canopies and bistro lights, a pleasantly rustic but comfortable bathroom setup, a convenient supply of potable well water, and serene fields and longhorns across the way. We were not traveling with kids, but were we, they would have had a wonderful time in the natural play area. We were forewarned by Warren that sprinklers came on at 3:30 am, and when they did it woke me up... and because the grass is so lush, mosquitos were quite present in the evening... but these minor things are easily addressed with earplugs and mosquito repellant. 😁

1 night at Havens Ranch

We stayed here on the way to Oregon with our four dogs! We had the entire area to ourselves besides a camper that was up the hill a little. Huge open space and so much room for our dogs to run around! Beautiful views! We enjoyed watching the longhorns and listening to the cows! There’s very little light pollution so we could see all the stars at night. We would 100% stay here again!

1 night at Havens Ranch

We loved the laid back setting in the beautiful Sierra Nevada forest! The Camp Ground is very quiet and serene and is relaxing from the very start! The staff could not be more accommodating especially Xavier who was very helpful and engaging. We were lucky enough to camp next to Alejandra another very friendly staff member who helped us navigate the facility and local attractions. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

1 night at Cathedral Gorge Inn

Great spot to stop for the night! It’s so close to the park and right next door to a gas station.

1 night at Miss Kathy's Short Branch

It was very easy to find and Zachary and his family are locals & amazing 😁 I was there when a wind storm came through and event with the crazy winds I get to see the flower moon & reenergize. My pups had some free run time in the morning 🥰 What more can you ask for ✌️🫶🕯️

1 night at Water front on Topaz Lake

The lake was beautiful and our spot was nice and level for our van. It was crazy windy, so we didn’t get a chance to enjoy the fun amenities, but the shower was super clean and nice with lots of special touches. We would definitely come back!

Weekend Trip to Havens Ranch

Great spot! Warren is awesome and very accommodating.

1 night at #1 Night Skies, UFOs, & Jets

1 night at The Alchemist

The hosts went above & beyond to help us with all our needs. It is a very comfortable and inviting space to camp. Amazing!

4 nights at Miss Kathy's Short Branch

Very nice time there, very quiet and peaceful. If in the area again, I would stay a 2nd time.

#1 Night Skies, UFOs, & Jets

1 site · RV, Tent7 acres · Rachel, NV

Wide open desert with history. In the 1800s the area was prospected for lead and silver. It was also used as farmland decades ago, and now is infamous for it's world class night skies and Area 51 air force installation. Although you can see planes taking off towards the Nellis Bombing Range, or see jetfighter training exercises or even test flights, the US Government still hasn't acknowledged the existence of the facility... that you are not allowed to enter. This is also a UFO hotspot and required visiting for those that believe Earth may have visitors. This land means a lot to a lot of different people. For some, it means peace from city life. For others, it is the perfect setting for reflection on your life. Many find it to be the kind of adventurous or challenging tent camping they've sought. You'd be foolish not to count yourself among those the photographers, amateur astronomers, or souls that enjoy the continental United States' "darkest skies" with the least amount of light pollution in this part of the world. Some simply like camping and getting free air shows. Finally, if you enjoy UFO stories or stories of our men in black, there is an itinerary for you here that nowhere else can provide. This area is on many "independent researchers" must-visit list. If all that weren't enough, there is an indescribable feeling of bedding down for the night in this valley. Maybe 100% of people don't feel it, but so many past visitors who have spent the night near the Extraterrestrial Highway (the real name of Nevada State Route 395 that this land is accessible from) can vouch for it.
