Camping in Ely — what to know

Ely sits in Nevada, and like most Nevada camping stays, expect shoulder-season pricing through spring and fall and tighter availability in peak summer. Most operators run their own websites — we link straight there. Reviews surface on each listing where available; if you spot a property with stale info, the "verify with operator" disclaimer on the listing page links to their direct site.

We track every kind of outdoor stay nationally — yurts, geodesic domes, treehouses, conestoga wagons, safari tents, RV parks, primitive sites — but each city has its own mix. Use the links below to pivot to a different stay type in Ely, or jump to camping in another Nevada city.
