Atlatl Rock Campground

Beautiful area. Spot 21 and 22 are tucked back in a corner but you have to walk in all your supplies - which is worth it for the privacy. Space 22 has nice fun nooks to climb for kids and a good amount of shade. They have WATER 🌊 💦 provided at the entrance of each space. There are elevated, well maintained areas to place your tent. There are PICNIC TABLES, GRILLS and FIRE PITS. There are restrooms nearby. I heard there were showers but I never went and saw those. There were MOUNTAINS GOATS 🐐🐐 everywhere. We saw the most around 2 p.m. There were newborns the end of March. A leash is required for dogs 🐶🐕. Beautiful , desert camping 🏕️🥾. Many places to hike nearby. Lots of climbing for children. It was $10 for a day to enter the area. Sometimes local libraries will have a special to get in for free but I didn't take advantage of that.

Made reservations for a tent spot. Ended up having two trek all of our gear from the parking area. The tent spot was so small my two-man tent would not fit in it. So we had two corners hanging off the edge. The tent spot is also raised up off of the ground which we thought was very odd. The website did not notify us that we would be needing to carry all of our gear to get to the camp spot. We would not have reserved this if we had known So FYI to others. But it was a very cool secluded area to camp. We awoke to a Fox running through our spot. Also some mountain goats were in the rocks when we woke up.

A wonderful campground. We had the visit of several bighorn sheep. Very clean bathrooms and showers.gorgeous scenery all around. Walking distance to the petroglyphs up a flight of stairs .

It's in agreement between my husband and I that this was a good campground that we've come across. It's four stars due to the lack of privacy between campsites, no real accessible paths for leisurely walking (no hiking trails near the campsites), and minimal shade for the tents. The actual trails are several miles away from the campground, so don't forget to pay the entry fee if you're still camping the next day or with a receipt that expired at sunset on your way out. :X If you're a passport holder looking for a stamp, the Lake Mead National Recreation Area is the entry before Nevada State Park (the state park and national park entrances are right next to each other). Pros: Clean showers, clean restrooms, bottle refill stations, water spigots at each campsite, well-maintained campgrounds, a chance to come in contact with wildlife (i.e. white-tailed antelope squirrels, bighorn sheep, common ravens), fantastic views of the red rock Cons: Minimal shade at the campsites (bring LOTS of sunscreen and bug spray), no hiking trails near the campground, lack of privacy between campsites (especially when people disregard the 'NO DRONES' rule) Each campsite has a water spigot, a shaded picnic table, and a raised platform for tents. The water temperature varies from lukewarm to hot (same for the showers). There are six private shower rooms in total, one specifically built with a seat for the handicapped, and restrooms with water refill stations next to them. Wi-Fi prices vary on the amount of time and number of devices. Reservations must be made 3 days' in advance; otherwise it's a first-come, first-serve basis, payment for one night at a time. P.S. My husband said that any campground with showers automatically gets 3 stars.

Camped here on a weekend in January using a tent. We were at an RV/tent no utilities site. We enjoyed our stay very much. The views were spectacular wherever you turn. Some sites are really close to one another. Each site has a water spigot, picnic table with shade, barbecue grill and a firepit. The shower was not working that weekend. Not sure how long there was no water available at the shower area. There was no hot water in the bathroom, but it was very clean and well-maintained. In fact, the whole campground was clean and well-maintained. It was cold, so we really needed the coats, hats and gloves that we brought.

Top Camping. Very quiet, Campground was nearly empty, good shower, amazing Nature! Hot in the tent in June (42°C)

We ended up staying here one night with our 3 year old and 1.5 year old. This place was absolutely amazing. Our 3 year old loved climbing "the mountains". We didn't expect much assuming the kids wouldn't be able to climb much, but this place is very accessible. There are so many places to hike around and climb, we had a blast! We were also fortunate enough to see the ram that roam the park. I will say that the bathrooms could use a little touching up. I took one of the kids in with me into the bathroom and got close to touching a Black Widow spider. Other than that this place is breathtaking and should be experienced.

Most of the campsites are basic, offering a shelter over the picnic table and a fire pit, with easy access to toilets. Although when were were there, one of the toilets was being worked on - or so it seemed. The electric/water sites cost extra, but worth it especially if it is hot. Highly recommend getting a reservation well in advance if you want/need W/E. Most of the sites seem pretty level and many are tucked up amongst the rocks.
