Our property sits on 2 acres in the heart of Las Vegas. It is one of the original homesteads of Las Vegas which we are trying to take back to a homestead. The original owners of the property played a huge hand in the building of Vegas. As we have cleaned up the property treasures of a 100 years ago have been found all over the property. On the property you will find a huge garden out front that you are welcome to pick from. We also have over 50 trees on the property you are welcome to walk around and enjoy. If you find yourself in the duck coop or the chicken coop and find an egg you are welcome to enjoy it. Feel free to enjoy the pool, bbq and outside bathroom which has a shower, and full size washer and dryers. We are a smoke/drug free site please be respectful of this rule and violators will be asked to leave without refund. Because we are a "working hobby farm" you will see some weeds and you may even see a project or two we are working on, feel free to join in but please be understanding that in order for us to improve things it will get little messy and can take time to complete. Also, please check the weather before you book, Vegas if very hot during the summer months, if your rig doesn't have AC you will not be comfortable as night temps can be easily over 100.

18mi from Nellis AFB · 1 site · RV

Las Vegas has been booming for years, but we snagged this quiet little gem before it got too wild. Nestled off the beaten path on a peaceful road, our spot gives you the best of both worlds—easy access to all the Strip’s action, yet far enough away to unwind in serenity. We’re proud to be home to the Southern NV Beagle Rescue Foundation, lovingly dubbed Beagletopia. You might even catch some adorable beagle vibes while you’re here! Perfect for campers who want a chill retreat with a dash of Vegas flair. Come pitch your tent, park your rig, or just soak in the desert calm—your escape awaits! About This Land: Roll up to your own desert oasis—a dry camping haven for self-contained RVs (pack your generator, no power hookups here!). Gaze out at endless desert vistas, with the neon glow of the Las Vegas Strip just 9 miles—or 15 thrilling minutes—away. You’re a stone’s throw from shopping, the Raiders practice stadium, and I-15 (5 min), with Red Rock Canyon’s rugged trails (25 min) and Mt. Charleston’s cool pines (1 hr) begging to be explored. Your Stay Makes a Difference: By choosing to stay with us, you’re not just escaping to the desert—you’re also supporting our local nonprofit dog rescue, giving lovable beagles a brighter future. As you settle in, keep an eye out for the desert’s wild residents—speedy roadrunners, curious jackrabbits, or coyotes if you’re lucky! You might hear the occasional joyful bark or gentle howl as the dogs greet the day, but it’s far from a constant clamor.

What a great spot! I can’t guarantee this place enough as a jumping off or landing pad for a Grand Canyon trip. The RV hookups are easy to find and use. The full working bathroom was an added bonus. Arrival instructions were super clear. No issues the entire stay, but the hosts were available for questions and helpful.

Weekend Trip to Beagletopia - Your Quiet Escape!

It was wonderful camping. close enough to civilization that I didn't have to worry if I forgot something, but far enough away that it was quiet all weekend - unless you don't like the sound of coyotes singing, and dark enough to sit out, watch the sunset, and enjoy a nice pour of Weller C.Y.P.B.. My trailer is 22 feet, so I would pull in, and still unhook, giving me a great view of the mountains. Some weekends, I just need to get away from the house and all the stuff, and I will certainly look for this spot.

We had a lovely stay at the farm. The outhouse bathroom/ laundry room is perfect and the swimming pool was a dream. Our 3 year old loved the stay with dogs, chicks, chickens etc to play with and a short taxi ride from the strip and all the action. The hosts were super friendly and even gave us some delicious scones. Highly recommend!

This was the best hipcamp spot we’ve ever used. Close enough to Vegas to take an Uber into town and much cheaper than one of the hotel casinos. The owner met us shortly after we arrived and was very nice and helpful. There’s dedicated laundry, a nice bathroom with shower and even a pool and two hammocks. Quiet neighborhood with good power and water. highly recommended!

We received a detailed email on how to get at Half Pint and where to stand. We were the only campers on the tiny campground so we had the bathroom to ourselves. De douche and toilet were clean, there was also a washingmachine and a dryer. Our host was n't at home so we had appcontact if necessery. Our stay in Las Vegas was very pretty.

Great amenities, great people, the pool was a godsend. Half Pint saved us from roasting during a heat wave. So cool to get a charming hobby farm experience and pop over to the Vegas Strip for a couple shows in the evenings! We loved our stay.

I have a small 17ft trailer and they let me pull straight through their back yard instead of having to back up. So easy! The hosts were very nice and accommodating. It was nice to have access to the bathroom and laundry so I don’t have to worry about the sewage. Loved seeing the ducks and chickens and their dog was so sweet. Would stay here again!
