Ask about this camp →Bureau of Land Management lists this as a developed campground. Expect marked sites, a fee station or a reservation, and the usual campground rules. The dispersed-camping freedom of the surrounding forest does not apply inside it. What changes is conditions — roads, gates, closures, fire rules. Check those with the unit before you commit to the drive.

public land records
Confidence
Likely — The record is good enough to put a pin on, but thin in places. Treat the details as a starting point, not gospel.
How it was placed
BLM developed campground in Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, about 20 miles from the Las Vegas Strip -- a fee site, included because it is the only developed BLM campground in the Las Vegas basin and we carry nothing here. FEE, BLM's own words (read 2026-08-17): "Standard and RV sites: $34.00 for reservations made through call center; $33.00 for reservations made through recreation.gov. Walk-to sites: $21.00 for reservations made through call center; $20.00 for reservations made through recreation.gov. Group Sites: $89.00 for reservations made through call c[enter]" (BLM's field is truncated at that point). SEPARATE TIMED ENTRY FOR THE SCENIC DRIVE: "If visitors would like to visit the scenic drive, they must have a separate timed entry reservation for each day they plan to enter the scenic drive. Reservations are required October 1 to May 31, 8am -5pm." FREE ALTERNATIVE NEARBY, per the same BLM record: "Red Spring/Calico Basin is located 2 miles from the campground and is a no fee area" -- worth a separate lead once its camping status is checked. NEAREST TOWN: Las Vegas, NV. Coordinate is BLM's own published point from gis.blm.gov/arcgis/rest/services/recreation/BLM_Natl_Recreation_Sites_Facilities (read 2026-08-17). It is a recreation-area pin, not a surveyed campsite. SOURCE: https://www.blm.gov/visit/search-details/250877/1 | auto:agency-trust 2026-08-18: state agency GIS record with a source URL and coordinates, confidence not low. Fee value is the agency's own, not field-checked. Not field-verified -- confirm access, road conditions and fire rules before you go.
