Billy The Kid Tent – Glamp Like an Outlaw on 15 Private Acres Saddle up for a one-of-a-kind desert getaway! The Billy The Kid Tent is a fully outfitted canvas retreat set on ten fenced acres of wide-open high desert—no other campers, just you, the mountains, and the silence of the wild. The tent is spacious enough to stand, stretch, and truly unwind. Inside, you'll find a real queen-size bed with fresh linens, extra pillows, a cowhide blanket for chilly nights, propane heater, solar-powered lighting for cozy evenings. There's even a private indoor loo, so no wandering out into the night. Need to stay connected? We’ve got a solar power system so you can charge your phone, laptop, or camera right from the tent. Outside, relax at your private picnic table, pizza oven and grill onsite or fire up the included firewood at the fire pit (season permitting), or warm up inside with the wood-burning stove with a cooking top. And when night falls, enjoy some of the clearest stargazing skies around. 🪵 Fire-friendly (when permitted) 🐾 Pets welcome 🐴 Horse boarding available – just give us a heads-up ☕ Extras include: fresh ranch coffee, egg sandwiches made with ranch eggs, and a bit of good ol’ outlaw West reading material to enjoy by the fire. And that view? It'll set you back a few paces—it still does that to us. Free parking is available just steps from the tent. When you arrive, give a friendly honk at the front gate and we’ll come greet you with a smile. Come experience the spirit of the Old West—right here where it actually happened. Did we tell ya Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid actually robbed a bank here in town :)

6. Antelope Run Ranch

12mi from Valmy · 16 sites · Tents, RVs · Valmy, NV

Welcome to Antelope Run Ranch, a one-of-a-kind off-grid escape tucked deep within Nevada’s Pumpernickel Valley, between Battle Mountain and Winnemucca. Spanning more than 40 acres of rugged desert beauty, this developing retreat offers vast open skies, endless exploration, and a chance to experience the high desert the way it was meant to be—quiet, raw, and unforgettable. Here, solitude meets adventure. Whether you’re off-roading, stargazing, hiking, or simply seeking stillness, Antelope Run Ranch gives you space to breathe, explore, and reconnect. The ranch stretches across an expansive section of open Nevada desert, with a dry riverbed winding through its heart. This natural feature tells the story of the land—once carved by flowing water, now home to soft sand, wild sagebrush, and the occasional curious pronghorn antelope. Everywhere you look, the horizon stretches without end, framed by distant mountain ranges that glow gold at sunrise and turn deep violet by dusk. When night falls, the Milky Way reveals itself in spectacular clarity, making Antelope Run Ranch one of the best stargazing spots in northern Nevada. Small young trees—recently planted and lovingly tended—hint at the ranch’s gradual transformation into a sustainable desert haven. Each visit offers a new glimpse of its evolution. Three operational campsites are available, each large enough for a travel trailer, rooftop tent, or ground tent. These sites are spaced widely apart, allowing guests to enjoy solitude and quiet while still being close enough to share meals and stories with others. Future upgrades will include a central communal area—a shared cooking and gathering spot where guests can meet, eat, and relax under the stars before retreating to their own camps for rest. Antelope Run Ranch isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a launch point for adventure. Surrounded by miles of BLM land, guests have unlimited freedom to explore. Bring your 4x4 vehicle, ATV, or UTV and dive into soft desert sands, rocky trails, and open valley plains. Whether you’re hunting, rockhounding, hiking, or just wandering, the landscape invites exploration in every direction. If you’re a stargazer, photographer, off-road enthusiast, or someone who loves wild open places, this ranch was made for you.

My goal on this trip was to get off the hwy and see new things and new places. This was a great spot and just what I was looking for. The host was awesome and came out to make sure I found my spot since I did not arrive until way after dark.

While not necessarily traditional camping, I enjoyed pitching my tent next to the long horn cattle. They proved to be good camping companions. The sunset from this location was spectacular. I found it to be a safe stop over for a solo female traveler.

We arrived after dark with our trailer and got a bit lost- Warren rescued us!! So grateful he answered his phone. Wonderful to wake up to a herd of cattle who escaped from a neighboring ranch. Our 9# chihuahua mix thought she was a ranch dog; she was off leash exploring and was in heaven with all the smells. A fun first stop on our 3 week road trip.

We enjoyed our one-night stay at Mountain View Hipcamp. We were the only ones staying for the night which made for a nice quiet evening. This is a wedding venue also so there are clean restrooms, a water spigot, fire pit with wood. Nice stop away from loud traffic noise. Really enjoyed it.

What a fabulous respite! Gracious host, beautiful country. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Loved the sound of coyotes, star-gazing, stunning silence, all in a well-appointed canvas tent. The bed was so comfortable and I was charmed to boil water for cowboy coffee on the wood stove in the morning. Road-tripping so a short one night stay, but I hope I get a chance to return!

Weekend Trip to Rockin' N Ranch Buena Vista Valley

I actually didn't get the opportunity to stay. We came into the area hours later than expected (dark) and immediately lost cell reception, no GPS, no email, no phone, making it to difficult to find. Once we got back into cell range I messaged host and they were ready to do just about anything to help us get back. Very friendly and when we are in the area again we will give it another try. Not host fault, T-Mobile's fault 😊.

So beautiful, silent and peaceful. I didn’t have the chance to meet Morgan but they let me know they would be in town when I arrived and to make myself comfortable. A great place for some reflection if that’s what you’re looking for. It is about 30 min off the highway so be sure to have enough gas to get you there and back.
