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.

The campsite (#18) seemed fine until half of the tent pad turned into a pond during a night of rain (in September 2022). We were surprised to have a generator-running RV in the site right next to our tent site. The pit toilets were clean. The potable water was handy and of good quality.

Nice quiet campground. Not much to do unless you are planning on hiking though. I was also unable to see the campsite I was reserving online. It was handicapped and didn't have room for a tent. Unfortunately, my daughter's had to put their tent up where we were supposed to park one car. It all worked out, but was not ideal.

Wonderful campground in the Ruby Mountains. Lots of hiking trails from beginners to advance.

Awesome location! The campground is laid out nicely and sites are pretty private. The restrooms are super clean. We loved our site 33 and it was next to the trailhead so convenient, but was not bothered by the hikers.
I recommend taking the road through the Lamouille Canyon to the end. It's breathtaking.
There is no dump station, but there is one at the Airport Shell in Elko for $5.00.

Thomas Canyon is a real gem, fantastic hiking, fishing and swimming in the local swimming holes. Camp hosts we're great and it only gets better going up lamoille canyon. I feel stupid writing this review because I'd like to keep the secret, but I feel obliged to share it with you as well.

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.
