Great place for camping. Some sites are very nice and secluded. Bathrooms are very accessible throughout the campgrounds. Stunning views during the day and incredible at night. Can see the city light depending on the site you pick. Has cell reception most parts.

Nice affordable spot. Has grill, fire pit and picnic table. Close to hiking trails and offers some great views. Restrooms available. Trash bins nearby. No cell phone coverage so download the map and anything else you need in advance. Come with a full tank of gas too. No service stations nearby.

Beautiful place to escape the Vegas heat... went from ~110 in town to mid 70s with chilly nights that dipped into the high 30s to low 40s... again incredible break from the Vegas summer... would recommend to locals or tourists passing through. Met some cool folks at the sight next to mine, got some rad drone footage that I'm working on... great spot!!

Hey, so we took the kids to Mt. Charleston for a quick camping trip from North Las Vegas – about 45 minutes away. We found this cool spot, Hilltop, last year; it's got a toilet but no sink, but the views are amazing and it's so much cooler than the city. We grilled out and slept in our rooftop tent, but it got down to 49 degrees in June, so we left before sunrise. We'll definitely go back!
