Baker Creek campground is near the end of a two and a half mile long dirt road. It is somewhat washboarded, even though there is a road grader parked on the road. Even worse, the campground road looks washed out. Not a pleasant experience for hauling today’s cheaply made over produced Covid trailers through a national park. You would be better off camping somewhere else if you can’t get into the paved sights on Lehman Creek.

We love Baker Creek Campground, and the National Park. We were very disappointed this time to roll in just before dark and headed for our favorite campsite. We knew at this time of year there would at least be a few empty campsites and wouldn’t need a reservation. Well, the park has gone to reservation only camping. For this you have to be online and have an internet connection. But wait! There is no internet connection at the campground, even if you have a smartphone. So, after driving all afternoon, tired and hungry, we had to drive back down the road to make a reservation online before we could set up camp and make dinner. Luckily, we have smartphones. Many people still have only flip phones. We used to be able to just put our money in an envelope and start setting up camp. But they have had to reduce staff at the park in order to pay for golden leaf horse statues, gaudy ballrooms, and ridiculous and unwanted giant arches in D.C. It’s a tragedy that money for our national parks is being used this way. The staff at Great Basin, and all of our national parks are doing an amazing job in spite of this. The bathrooms in the campground are cleaned each morning, and are spotless! Thank you to all the amazing park staff who helped make our stay amazing as always!

Quiet campground, majority of sites well spaced out with trees inbetween. Enjoyed wildlife walking through our campsite (elk, turkeys). Restrooms were clean.

Lovely spot, despite proximity to outhouse. Too bad water was not available. Stream nearby was very nice. Sites all well situated, vary in size.
