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.

Facilities very clean, and campground was well organized with clearly marked spots. The only issue is that it seems to be common practice for people to place “reserve” tickets at first-come-first-serve spots. Many had handwritten payment tickets to “hold” spots for dates that were in the future, but these were different than the printout reservation slips.

Two adults and two children in our family enjoyed our site with room for our vehicle and two tents. There was shade later in the afternoon (Site 29). We hiked from the trailhead nearby - steep at first, but beautiful. Restrooms were stocked and cleaned a few days earlier. The drawback was the lack of camp host for support when we arrived at our designated time and the previous occupants had stayed on, thinking that they had a longer reservation. Actually, they had reserved another site and had expected to move, but didn't have clear records where they were supposed to go. Within a half hour, they cooperated by moving and finding the correct site with their name.

Nice secluded & quiet campground. Quiet, that is, except for the soothing sound of the river coursing through the camp and tumbling over rocks on its way. Dark sky is great for observing the heavens. Recommend hiking the Thomas Canyon trail from the campground and driving further up the canyon from the camp to see meadows and beaver dams & lodges. Pit toilets in the campground are adequate, and water spigots are conveniently located to collect water for filling fresh tanks. We stayed in site 3 with a 35’ bumper pull travel trailer. Our site had a nice concrete pad for the picnic table, camp grill, and our camp chairs.

Great camping spot. Bathrooms are easily accessible and clean. Water available at spikets. River was nearby. Hiking trail was excellent beside river/up canyon right at campground. Camp table was in great condition. Friendly campers and close to town.

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.
