Camping Details

Great Basin's five developed campsites offer campfire grills, vault toilets, tent pads and picnic tables. Lower Lehman Creek is the only campground that is open year-round, the rest are open from late spring to early fall. There are no showers available inside the park, but an RV dump station with potable water and trash receptacles is located about a half-mile inside the park on the main entrance road and is available for use for a $5 fee. All campsites are available on a first come first serve basis, so if you plan on spending the night in the park, pitch your tent early in the day as sites tend to fill up quickly, especially in the summer.
