Stayed there one evening on our way to Idaho. Nice spots to camp. We were the only ones on a Wednesday. Great place to hang out for the afternoon and evening and our dogs we’re probably the happiest of all! Would stay there again
There was a clean restroom available. There was a fee pay station. In-state overnight camping was $10 a night and $20 a night for out of state.

Overall Rating
We stayed here on a Friday night on October and were completely alone. The reservoir at the time as very low and we found a flat spot some ways out from what is probably the "typical" shoreline. (Flat spot meaning we didn't unhitch or do anything to level the trailer because we were already perfectly level.)
There is a parking area containing a pit toilet; the area around the toilet has space for several RVs. However, we took the road leading west and downhill from the pit toilet area and then turned toward the reservoir. As long as it's not completely dark you won't have any problem finding a place just about anywhere. Note that we didn't head into the sandy area (which is probably normally covered by water) out towards where the low water was. I walked out there in the morning and it was a little softer than what I'd be comfortable dragging a trailer onto.
Note that this is dry camping. There is no water available here, nor is there a dump station. There are dump stations at other areas in the recreation area and in Fallon (18 miles east).
The entrance road may be a bit tricky to find; there isn't a sign readily visible from Hwy 50 (and the sign that exists isn't visible at all if you're heading east). The coordinates of the entrance (from maps.google.com) are 39.457893, -119.082608. If you driver past the entrance heading east (like we did) you can turn around a few hundred yards down the road.
According to the state website dispersed camping is allowed anywhere along the shore so there is plenty of space. For non-Nevada vehicles the "entry" fee is $10 and the camping fee is $10 so we put $20 in an envelope and put it into the steel pillar near the entrance. The fees noted above are from the sign at the entrance (or maybe the envelope - can't remember for sure). Looking at the state's website the numbers are different (camping is more).
