We camp here almost every year and it's a great place! Plenty of shade and running water. Clean campsites and vault toilets.

GETTING THERE: It’s all dirt road from Belmont to Pine Creek Campground but Monitor Road (SH82) was in great shape, well maintained with no washboarding. Once you turn on Pine Creek Campground Road, the road condition is still okay but has noticeable decay. There is a wash halfway up that is of no concern for a car or truck but a long wheelbase RV will surely scrape. Considering the campground road conditions, road width and turn radius’s, anything over 30’ will have a rough trip just getting to the campground. IN THE CAMPGROUND: There are several sites to choose from with the creek running pretty much down the middle. Most of the sites are relatively shallow (20’ or less), slightly overgrown and with variable slopes that range upwards of 5 degrees. Tree overhang could be a problem for an RV taller than 11’. An RV over 25’ will be tight both length and in many places, width. Getting it level will be difficult. The campground layout is a traditional loop design but the East end of the loop requires one to go into a gully and cross the creek. Easy to do in a pickup or Jeep but anything with length could be challenging if not damaging. There is a turn around on the West end of the loop to go against traffic but that really limits where a towable RV can go. If you tent camp, this place is perfect for that. It has 3 well kept vault toilets, grilles and picnic benches at the sites and the fantastic sound of a mountain stream flowing. If you truck camp or car camp, it’s still a great place but your option whittle down. If you RV in a Class A or Super C, you won’t fit. Anything much bigger than a van gets tight. If we were tent camping, I’d give this a solid 5 if the overgrowth was better managed but since we RV, I can only rate it a 2 for beauty as the rest was a no-go.

We loved camping here, bring bug spray and a relaxing attitude. If you're big on hikes, they have a good trail, or you can just sit back at camp and enjoy the outdoors. There is no phone connection, so be prepared to be off line.

Pine Creek campground located in the center of Nevada is a classic Great Basin destination. Surrounded by 11 K mountains Pine Creek runs year round the campsites are somewhat rustic but well shaded by Birch and Aspen "quakies" , abundant campfire wood, few people use this site with the exception of hunting season, horse friendly and moderately challenging hikes right from the campsite. One could easily spend a week or more with day trips to interesting places. My family has been camping here for near 40 years and now it's time to share this place with others.

You might encounter lots of bears, mountain lion and rattle snakes. Best to stay away 😜

This is a good place for hikers that love remote back country. There is a trail that takes you back into wilderness right from the campground. The campground has great sites and a small stream flowing through it.

A coworker and I just did the 18+ mile loop to the Jefferson peaks. We had stayed at pine creek back in March. What a wonderful campsite! There was plenty of firewood around the campsites, and it was quiet. The campground comes with a toilet and a one way road that wraps around to all of its campsites. The trails on the backside are in ROUGH shape but we managed to power through and see the sheep at the top with the beautiful view.

Nice and quiet. An oasis in the desert
