Meadow at Baker Creek Campground

Baker Creek Campground
National Park Service - Great Basin National Park

This camp is located along Baker Creek only a short distance up a gravel road from the Park Entrance and the Lehman Caves Visitor Center.  The Baker Lake Trailhead is a 1/2 mile farther at the end of the gravel road.

Baker Creek is a nice campground in a scenic canyon.  The camp is clean and well taken care of.  I spotted mule deer all over when I was here.  The camp is a great option to the Lehman Creek camps, and is typically less crowded (barring holiday weekends, which fill up all the camps).

There is a group campground located downstream in Baker Creek Canyon called Grey Cliffs.  It can be reserved through the Visitor's Center at Great Basin National Park.  It can accommodate groups up to 50.

The sites along the creek appear to be the best. A few of the sites in the front loops are in the open.  There are bathrooms in both loops.  Reviewed SEP98.
