What Guests Are Saying

Echo Bay Campground offers a lovely, quiet environment with beautiful desert views and entertaining wildlife like burros and roadrunners. The campground is clean and well-maintained, with spacious sites for a relaxing stay, although some sites are small and close together. While there are challenges such as limited shade, occasional maintenance issues, and the absence of a camp host, many visitors appreciate the peaceful atmosphere and convenient location near attractions like Valley of Fire State Park.

We ended up not staying in Echo Bay Campground. When we showed up, our campsite was occupied by someone else. In fact, the adjacent campsite was occupied as well, where Recreation.gov showed it was available. Due to the size of our trailer, there were only a couple of campsites in the campground that could accommodate us. So two campsites were getting occupied by people not paying for their campsite. There was no camp host on duty, nor could we find a park ranger anywhere in the area. We lost our camp fee. Not sure if we will come back to a Recreation.gov campsite ever again.

We have been camping at this area twice yearly for about 6 years. It has not changed much! Except the bathroom is cleaner with plenty of toilet paper! Last week there was a lot of micro trash in our spot and I picked up a bagful. The women’s bathroom has had a door off inside for last couple years!
It’s affordable with your senior pass! I only wish it felt a little more loved!
Good sunsets, big beautiful views!
