This is a nice KOA. The sites are dirt/decomposed granite but are clean and level. There are a lot of trees for shade, which can be nice during the summer when it gets hot out there, but they do not interfere with navigation. The staff was very friendly and efficient. The camp store has a gift shop and food service. They have a nice clean laundry with 10 or more washers, which is not listed on there web site. There is a large playground for the kids with old ghost town buildings. Right next door is an Off Highway Vehicle area. This is a nice ½ way point for heading to or from Las Vegas.
