Many appreciated the secluded campsites and beautiful hiking trails, notably the one leading to Lamoille Lake.

Bathrooms were clean and well stocked with toilet paper. ( pit toilets). No We hiked the canyon trail to the end and back. Stunning scenery! Not easy on a very hot day, but worth it. Go early in the morning! Campsite 6 was fine for our 21 ft trailer with views of the canyon walls until the trees get taller.

This campsite is genuinely the most beautiful I have ever had the pleasure of staying in. I am not kidding. My campsite was surrounded 360° by rugged, gorgeous mountains. A creek wasn’t too far away from my campsite, which was nice to cool off after a long day of hiking in the heat. I stayed in late July, it was about 80 to 90° average. If you have a chance to stay here, do it.

The whole campground appears to be well kept. In general, it was a very chilled environment, not very noisy and everyone seemed very respectful of other.

We loved everything about Thomas Canyon campgrounds. The pictures don't even come close to doing the beauty experienced justice! My husband was very impressed with this campground and he is very particular. We chose a campsite that is pretty close to the bathroom, which was helpful with small children. The canyon is delightful and we only wish we had booked a longer trip to explore more of it. It was truly spectacular in beauty and simplicity and just what we were looking for. Campsites were clean and had plenty of privacy. I think a little bit more brush could've been cut back to enlarge the campsites a tiny bit, but it wasn't enough of a bother and we definitely plan to come back next time we go to Nevada.

The fire pit was full of ashes, there was trash left by the table. It wasn’t swept the table was falling apart. It’s not the same as when there is a camp host to keep things up.
