Camping at Big Creek Campground
Surrounded by water birch, cottonwood, and Russian olive trees, Big Creek Campground is situated at the mouth of a canyon along Big Creek. A lot of deer pass through here to access the creek. There is trout in the creek.
To reach the campground, take US-50 west from Austin, NV about one mile. You will see a green sign for Big Creek Campground, then head south on Big Creek Rd. Continue south for 12.3 miles to the campground.
Road conditions to the campground starts out paved for the first few miles and then becomes hard-packed gravel for the rest of the way. It remains mostly smooth, and suitable for any vehicle. Once you get to the campground, the road beyond that becomes increasingly rocky as it rises elevation.
