What an awful experience. We felt like we were camping by the road instead of in an RV Park. Would not recommend. We were in a 5th wheel. Loved Elko but would not come back to this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We got in but not much room here for short-timers! All filled up with mobile homes and monthly people. Gravel isn't good and restrooms are trashed. Does have a nice restaurant and gift shop and is right in town. Very dark at night and scary. We camped here in a Motorhome.
What a rip off!!! This was one of the worst parks in Elko and I've been to two now and am going to try one more before writing off Elko entirely. Nothing was clean, the staff were rude and the price was too much for a piece of dirt. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Overpriced at $36, wifi costs $3.99/day, dog is $1 extra, limited to one 15 minute shower token/person/day with your camping fee, extra "tokens" extra $. And you have to get out of the shower, walk to other end of bathroom, insert second token, and walk back to shower if you want more time. Much of the food in their store is expired. Good cable TV included, easy access sites, all gravel, does have train and freeway noise. Not beautiful by any stretch of the imagination, but the restrooms were clean. We'd been boondocking for 5 days and wanted long showers and cable/wifi without setting up satellite dishes. We got it, but won't stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Just a FHU park for a quick overnight. There were at least a dozen other rigs there with the same idea. WiFi for a fee, showers for a fee. Gravel sites are dusty and not level. Good thing our neighbors were friendly, because with slides out, we were right on top of each other. There are quite a few permanent residents, but those rigs are clean and well kept. Train tracks are nearby, and trains whistle starts at five in the morning. A guy in a utility truck pulled up to his friend's rig and left the engine running and door open while they had a beer. He got really pissed at us when we asked him to turn off the engine after forty minutes! We suggest this park only if absolutely necessary. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Second time we have stayed here and it was just as enjoyable. Same friendly staff and still all the same free stuff. They have a lot of brochures on other out of state parks so you do not have to guess where to go plus a lot of information on Elko and Elko's attractions just in case you have an extended stay you have something to do. They keep up the cleanliness in the restrooms,showers,office,lounge,laundry room and outside. Highly recommend it! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is a fine park if you need to spend the night at a place with hookups. Checking in after hours is awkward and confusing. It's just a big parking lot with the rigs parked next to each other. Not dog friendly either. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We didn't have reservations but they got us in off the street anyway even though they were full. Elko is fun at 4th of July because there is the Basque Festival which is quite interesting. Shower room was the cleanest we've seen, nice laundry and store. Front desk help was very nice. Loved the slot lounge and free casino shuttles. We were able to join our friends who had reservations and were staying there so it worked out great! We camped here in a Motorhome.
OK overnighter. Gravel throughout. I had no problem with 29' MH. The office was clean although a bit smoky from the adjacent bar/lounge. Simple continental breakfast included. Staff was friendly. I would return if I needed a place to stay overnight. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is the worst place I have ever stayed, even for one night. It is just a lot full of over heated gravel. The sites are tiny and not marked so rigs are parked haphazardly. The access roads are extremely narrow. It's an overnight stop on the way to somewhere else, so rigs come in at all hours. A 40' motor home had to squeeze in next to us at 10 p.m., and we had to pull in our slide and the fellow behind us had to move his rig in order to make it possible. Train whistles all night long. There was a nice laundry. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Elko itself is a good-looking little city, but at the Double Dice RV Park, the family traveler rolls snake eyes. The RV slots are stacked so close together, you can barely open your doors to get out. Forget barbecueing or sitting out, there is no room. The showers and laundryroom are very good, but the playground looked like something the school system dumped fifty years ago, in a hot dusty, remote corner of the property. What the Double Dice is first and foremost, is a slot lounge. My son complained the next morning that he could hear the slot machines going off all night. That's all fine and good, but it would have been nice to know that up front. Pity the poor tent camper that stays at the Double Dice, since the 'tent camping' area is a strip of grass out in front next to the busy highway. The only reason I scheduled to stay there was it came up on the internet. A billboard on the highway proclaimed a new RV park two and a half miles down (east) from the Double Dice. Though we never got that far, I would have liked to have seen that option on the Elko searches. If you're family Rving or camping through Elko, search out somewhere other than the Double Dice, or even maybe check out any National park camp spots in the Ruby Mountain area, or maybe Carlin, a town just a little further west. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We had no problems with the sites. Moderately level on gravel. Some long TT's had problems getting into their site. Sould have been deisgned for the longer rigs. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Double Dice. We took advantage of the free shuttle service that runs all night to the downtown casinos. The laundry room and restrooms were extremely clean. They have picnic tables under a canopy with barbeques so that we could be in the shade in the grass area and cook our hamburgers while my niece and nephew played catch. The staff at the Double Dice are extremely friendly and go out of their way to help you with anything. I will definitely stay there again. I highly recommend the Double Dice in Elko Nevada. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Good place to stay when you are headed elsewhere. The first line of spots are popular so that you can escape easily the next day. Don't go to the second row to the right - you may get stuck if you are long. coachconnect wireless connection was pretty good - ~500k up and down. Late checkout policy was very lenient. Friendly staff. Would stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice park for a quick overnight stay. All gravel and no grass. WiFi connection was a nice surprise and free. Laundry facilities were old and many didn't work. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not much else in Elko, so it was the best for an over-nighter. Level gravel sites, full hookups, cable TV, phone at site for $2, no shade. Showers were clean, $1 for 15 minutes. They separate the over-nighters from the long-stays, which is good. RV store in lobby, and a free buffet breakfast starting at 7am. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Good for an overnighter. Level gravel sites/roads. Sites are very close together. No playground or arcade for kids. Would've been much better had the kids had an area to throw a ball around or something for them to do. They couldn't ride bicycles or scooters because of the gravel roads. Registration office reeked heavily of cigarette smoke because of adjacent casino. Used the showers (3 available showers in men's room) The one I used I had a hard time of finding a warm setting- wasted 4-6 minutes (of a free 15 minute shower) trying to find a comfortable setting. Employees were friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is O.K. for a short stop over. Good view on hills around park. No road noise, RxR track to South but no noise problems. Staff was nice and sites were clean. We camped here in a camper.
We liked the pull throughs that faced each other so we could go back and forth with our friends. We were in a motorhome and would come back to this place time and time again...what a nice resort... We camped here in a Motorhome.
It's hard to believe I stayed at the same park as the folks who posted other reviews here. Sorry that they didn;t have as great a time as I had when I stayed at Iron Horse, and I hope they'll try it again some time! We found the staff to be really great, very friendly. Our site was really great also, and we had no problems at all. Brand new park, and the best one by far in Elko. Elko itself is a nice town (you've got to eat at the Star! UNREAL steaks there). We'll stay here again, no doubt about it. We enjoyed our stay very much! We camped here in a Motorhome.
Not a chance of staying here again. Too much money in the first place with special perks. You would think that with a name like Hilton standing behind it they would make this place irresistible. I guess they just want to charge a Hilton name price. We had trouble getting into the park it is not easily marked. The sites are made up of sand so there is no way of getting level(maybe if you are staying there for ten years the sand might get hard enough). I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Highly over-rated! They wanted $65 per night to park next to the train. The train rattles the windows all night long and makes the stay miserable. The entrance is treacherous with a hairpin turn going down a steep embankment. Sites are back ins when they advertise big rig friendly, hah! Checked the monthly rate which is $650 per month with a $650 deposit. They aren't in Palm Springs! Crazy. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Visited here just to see what it was like. Way out of town, 11 miles. Facility is trashed and no transportation to town. Very old and run-down, but nice view of river and mountains. Large sites and they are secluded because there was no one really there even in the busy summer. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park is at exit 314 on I80 in eastern Nevada. This has to be the worst park that I
have seen. It has 27 overnight sites that are not too bad but the hookups have to be worked on all the time, the water sometimes does not work or it leaks. The rest of the park is so over run with weeds and spaces are covered with stickers. They have a play ground for the kids but there you find stickers too. The swings are very old and look like they might fall down.The tent spaces are hard to find sence the weeds are so tall. So unless you are driving very late and just need to stop I would suggest that you go another 14 miles into Elko where you will find some better RV parks. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We spent one night here on the way to the Black Hills in South Dakota. The restrooms were in terrible condition and you had to get the key from the office to get in. This RV park has many permanent residents. The police were in the park twice on calls during our overnight stay. THe park is squeezed between I-80 and the Union Pacific rail yard. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is why it is $14. Place is for Long-term people staying by the month. Lots of dogs outside barking and trashy places. Right next to the train track and the freeway so you don't get any sleep. No facility to speak of and restrooms were locked. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This place is very crowded. They only have one shower for the people in the park to share. We had to park with the long term people and there were coming in and out all night long. The only plus was that they did have free shuttle service. We camped here in a Motorhome.
