Don't forget your sunscreen, because there's not a ton of shade here. Don't forget to look up at the night sky! Thanks to the absence of light all around, you can count the stars. Basic but enjoyable and quiet campground a but rough hike from the lake. Camp host is friendly and helpful. A nice spot to get some reading and writing done. You can swim around the boat launch. Bathrooms have running water, toilets and sinks. Pack in your supplies because services are sparse.

It looks like an abandoned camping area but has running water. Has toilet rooms with toilet paper and sinks. Beautiful views! Convenience store open during the day. The sites are pretty sparse with vegetation but we used our vehicles for shade. Site 10 is a good spot because it is close to the restrooms, it’s elevated and has a good view, and is close to a water spigot which can be used for hand and dish washing.

No privacy, no shade. It’s a good place if you have a tent for shade. Don’t book site 21—it’s right between two roads. The lake is about a 10-minute drive away. There’s a gas station, charger, and store about 8 minutes away. The restrooms were okay, but only had cold water. The view is great. We stayed here to visit Valley of Fire Park, and it worked for us.

Echo Bay Lower Campground offers a rustic and tranquil experience for those seeking a getaway within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. While it may not boast extensive amenities, its appeal lies in its proximity to Lake Mead and the surrounding natural beauty. The campground provides a peaceful atmosphere, particularly during the off-season, making it ideal for campers looking to escape the hustle and bustle. Visitors appreciate the opportunity for dry camping and the basic facilities available, such as drinking water and toilets. Although some reviews highlight the variability in site sizes and the potential for a more primitive experience, the overall consensus is that Echo Bay Lower Campground provides a worthwhile option for those wanting to enjoy the serenity of the Lake Mead environment.

A peaceful yet not isolated camping experience. There's bathrooms with a toilet and sink but showers would be great. We used baby wipes instead. Toilet paper was stocked until the last few hours of our stay. If you go, pack a couple rolls just in case. There's a mini Mart near the entrance that has ice. Would have loved to be directly on the water , but that's not possible due to the lake receding. It is a 3 minute drive down there. Probably 15 minutes walk. The sites have fire pits so that was nice at night. Best part was the fresh air while we slept, I definitely recommend it.
