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.

I was amazed in the Thomas canyon, beautiful, remote mountains with a lot of hiking trails. The campground was clean, we had good luck: our neighbors were quiet, the stay was very enjoyable. No cell service ( AT&T and T-mobile), no WiFi.

The Ruby mountains are so pretty and lush in early summer.. We were wishing we had our screen shelter as the bugs were out.. Not a lot of them but a few mosquitos, a few biting flies.. It was still very green with water flowing by our campsite. The bathrooms were clean.. so nice to that there wasnt footprints on the toilet seats and paper on the floor.. The dumpsters were not overflowing, fellow campers seemed friendly and considerate of others.. Just a pleasant, relaxing stay.. Hopefully we have more time to hike next time there.. Though relaxing by the river wasnt to tough.. As a plus, as someone that spends a lot of time in the eastern sierra,, its was nice to not have to deal with bears in camp

My favorite campground. It has everything I need - clean pit toilets, water spigots, NO cell service, gorgeous mountains, and a creek with trout in it. Elevation-wise it's one of the "coolest" campgrounds in NV. Hiking trails abound. I can beat my legs up by riding my bike up to the top of the road. No ATV traffic. A grocery store is 30 minutes away if necessary. Generally courteous co-campers. Usually not too much generator noise. Best 2 weeks of my summer.
