Summary

Echo Bay Campground offers a beautiful and tranquil setting with great views and a variety of camping sites. Many campers appreciated the cleanliness of the facilities, including well-maintained bathrooms, and the presence of wildlife like burros and roadrunners added to the charm. However, some visitors noted issues such as limited shade, noise from traffic and wind, and a lack of camp hosts for assistance. Overall, the campground is seen as a hidden gem for those looking to explore nearby attractions like the Valley of Fire, despite some management and maintenance concerns.
I know there have bern funding cuts, so I understand thd problem, but, the bathrooms eere not cleaned and had overflowing trash. Otherwise the campground was clean and well kept.
Echo Bay lower campground is a nice place for an overnight stay because it is close to other attractions. The campsites are well positioned to be out of the wind and there are nice trees and bushes around the campsites to offer some shade. The bathrooms are old and some of the toilets had issues while we were there--which thankfully were fixed the following morning. It would be lovely if more money and resources were alloted to the upkeep of this nice campground.
The campground road is rough, as were the people camping. Lots of Oleander and Burro poo - Watch your dogs. Of all the national parks we’ve visited, this was the worst.
2.4 mi to hike to get to the water! This is NOT a water front property! And once I finally got there the gravel was slipping into the water and there were huge thorns and prickly bushes everywhere! Soook bad for small dogs!! 😭😭😭 other than that the sight I picked was nice and private and so quiet and shaded. But others were very small and very very close together so nice others moved it not so quiet lol. But I enjoyed the clear beautiful sky’s and the darkness and no one around! Wonderful clean restrooms! Just didn’t have a light inside. So bring a light! And no cell service u less you go back up the mountain behind it.
Upper campground was closed which is the better campground with the better bathroom. Didn't see the camp host at all. They are still residing in the upper closed campground.
The lower campsite is in bad shape, needs repairs and maintenance. Bathrooms are old and need a deep clean. No sign of any park rangers. Seems like the park has been abandoned.
Echo Bay Campground is accessible via State Route 167, approximately 24 miles from Interstate 11. Nearby Boulder City provides access to U.S. Route 93.
