Pony Express RV Stop

How often do you come across an RV stop that perfectly balances practicality with a touch of local charm? The Pony Express RV Stop in Austin, Nevada, delivers exactly that, offering a no-frills retreat for those traveling along the famed "Loneliest Road in America" (Highway 50). Located on the eastern edge of this historic mining town, the campground features full hookups (including 30- and 50-amp options), alongside level pull-through and back-in sites, ensuring ease of use for RV travelers.

The campground offers essential amenities like clean restrooms, potable water, and access to Austin's nearby City Park, providing additional space for relaxing or stretching your legs. While the site focuses on simplicity, its tranquil surroundings and low noise levels make it a noteworthy stop for road trippers seeking a restful overnight break. What it lacks in elaborate features, it compensates for with convenience and a prime location near Austin's small yet inviting downtown, just minutes away.

Situated at the gateway to Nevada's rugged Great Basin terrain, Pony Express RV Stop positions visitors to experience the natural beauty of the surrounding Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest within a short drive. For those exploring further, local attractions like Bob Scott Summit and Big Creek Campground provide opportunities for hiking, wildlife observation, and immersion in the state's dramatic landscapes, all less than 30 minutes from your base. This stopover is ideal for cross-country adventurers, history buffs, and outdoor enthusiasts passing through central Nevada.
