We stayed on August 2nd. We took a chance and drove up on a Saturday. Needless to say we were afraid that we wouldn’t find a spot. We drove around for a while and finally found this spot. The group sites were closed due to the pandemic but they did have individual first come first serve sites - you had to drive in to see it.

The site worked for us as we have a rooftop tent so we always gain space and have no worries about setting up tents in the ground. Each site has a fire ring and a table. The vault toilet was a bit of a walk from our location but we were happy to have a spot, so it didn’t matter.

The views were nice and the night sky is amazing at Great Basin. Very little to no light pollution. Unfortunately we didn’t get any hiking in as we had the dog with us. Dogs are allowed at the campsite but not on a majority of the trails at Great Basin.
