Thomas Canyon Campground offers stunning scenery, clean facilities, and a peaceful atmosphere, making it a favorite among visitors. Many appreciated the secluded campsites and beautiful hiking trails, notably the one leading to Lamoille Lake. However, some noted the lack of a camp host this year, resulting in maintenance issues and a need for improved care of the grounds and bathrooms.

Thomas Canyon is a beautiful campground with the sites nicely separated by lush vegetation. The hiking trail that starts at the campground takes you to beautiful waterfalls and beaver ponds. Wonderful location in Lamoille Canyon!

Campground location is beautiful but management this year poor. Dumpsters overflowing, bathrooms not cleaned regularly and FF sites 'pre-claimed' but not occupied by campers.

Absolutely stunning views and beautiful country. Vault toilets are well maintained and as clean as is possible. Not having useable water from the spigots is the only negative

The Ruby Mountains are beautiful, snow capped gems in Nevada! We used Thomas Canyon Campground as a quiet peaceful base camp for day trips - to Lamoille Lake, Island Lake, Thomas Canyon’s lake, the marshes of upper Lamoille Canyon, Ruby Lakes, and Angel Lake in the East Humboldt Mountains. The creek in the campground was a great place to cool down after a day of hiking. We couldn’t have had a better time! We’ll be back!

Thomas Canyon campground has great views of the Lamoille Canyon and is close to trailheads. Campsites are well-spaced so are not too close to each other.

The campground is accessible via I-80, with the nearest exits in Elko, followed by a southbound route on State Route 227 for approximately 25 miles. The final approach is via Forest Road 660, which connects to Lamoille Canyon.
