Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
**Hot Springs is on private land and because of disrespect for the simple rules of 'No Camping', the owners are seriously considering having a full-time caretaker and charging a hefty fee to use these Private Hot Springs.
Free camping area is east 50 yards away on opposite side of highway. Mostly level and good access. Look for old abandoned truck on the gravel island.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Wonderful spot to camp. Quiet. Not a lot of traffic on nearby road. We camped in the large pit with the rusty abandoned vehicle on the large mound. Looks like a sculpture. Super flat, there were a couple other campers here on a Friday in November. Could hear wild burros in the distance, in the morning we saw some by the dirt roads coming off the paved road. We drove over to hot springs in the morning across the road, less than 2 minute drive. It’s near the abandoned building with graffiti all over it.
Hot springs were awesome, we didn’t risk dunking our heads due to amoeba that’s been found in other hot springs in nevada.
Great spot, great time!
PSA: DO NOT CAMP on the HOT SPRING SIDE of the ROAD. The owner of this private property does NOT ALLOW CAMPING there. This helps prevent the hot springs from getting contaminated because where people camp, people shit and piss!
LNT! This spring didn’t have any trash around it when we arrived, let’s keep it that way! 🤍
2 small tubs for soaking. lots of burros and horses. Good internet on Verizon.
Report Check-InWe are full-timers and have a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow. We stayed one night here in mid May to enjoy the springs. This is a nice hot spring with no smell and the temperature can be easily controlled. Please honor the owner’s wishes, as others have posted here and on other sites, and don’t camp at the hot spring, but east across the road at the big area with the dump truck. It’s only a short walk to the springs. There is absolutely no light pollution and the stars are amazing. AT&T service was fair with 2-3 bars of 5GE and speeds up to about 4 MB/s. Starlink had speeds up to 13 MB/s. We had DISH coverage on all of the western satellites. There were no OTA channels to be had with our fixed omni antenna.
