Yes, I have made reservations. They have requested that I obtain a list of the people who want the following: Full hookup, Dry Camping, or Hotel Room. They will do their best to accommodate our needs. They currently have seasonal workers occupying the park so full hookup availability is limited. Please post or PM me for the type of camping you are requesting. Or you may call the park directly if you choose. Thanks, Don

Full hookups for me- it will likely still be HOT there in mid-October!

AB...Have you talked to Leo lately? I wonder how he is doing.

[Ajb9]

last oct we did not turn on ac at all, we needed heater at night Barry

[Maverick4me]

So here is the current status. They currently have no full hook up pending a company job schedule has them booked. This could change and we will have spots. They have plenty of dry camping and some rooms available. Last year we only used the heater at night and no AC during the day. It was an average temp of 70's during the day, and 40's at night. I will submit a hard count of full hookups when we have a complete list. I have been in communication with the manager at the park. Thanks.

So do you have to call for a reservation for dry camping, or just show up? This looks a lot more low key than Halloween weekend in the sandbox, going to put it on the calendar if there still room. Thanks.

Okay, been coordinating with the Manager at the park. We have 5 full hook-up spot and 2 with just electric and water. All the dry camping that we need is available. Only $7 to fill your water and dump. Otherwise dry camping will be free. So any and all that dry camping works for, we will be able to accommodate. There should be more Full hookup spots available when we are closer to the arrival date, just unable to confirm at this time. So at this point (FH)full hook-up, (DC)dry camp, or (MT)motel will be added to sign-up riders. All Full Hook-up spots have now been taken including the 2 with just electric and water. Please chime in if there needs to be a change. Thanks, Don

Maybe I spoke to the wrong person. I spoke to John whom didn't know anything about our group and said that all of his sites were rented out to geothermal workers for the year.

Okay, so I got some bad news. The Manager in charge of booking was fired. All of the so-called reserved Full Hookup sites are NOT available. The owner has a company "Ormat" that has taken a priority to our reservations. The Manager did not have the right to make our reservations. There is all the dry camping available, and water and sewer dumping. $7.50-$15.00 for water depending on tank size and $7.50 per sewer dump.

Sorry for the bad news, we are evaluating whether we are even going to go. Most likely not.

[Pipelayer]

Thanks for checking Don

So the whole trip is cancelled? Or planning on going somewhere else?

Lets all chime in and discuss this... no idea

[66Elco]

Having to dry camp is not a deal breaker for me. As long as this ride isn't cancelled you can count me in!

After the way those people treated you guys, I'm not sure that I want to stay there anymore. I'm thinking maybe just joining the rest of the crazies at sand mountain the week after.

I called out to coldsprings several times and gave them a cc # months ago.. they have me down for a spot but I can't have it...
The manager said it's $10 per night to dry camp $7.50 for dump and for 50 gals of water it's $10 but based on how much you need? Personally I don't think there over booking is on us and some of this nickel dime stuff should be comped under the circumstance... but I don't think they want our business it's just that simple!

maybe we can come up with something thats not too far away and in the same time zone to sm......theres always Verdi... Bull creek, Boca res, several places to stay...Gold ranch casino rv park is great place,Boom town rv or dry camp at lake... outside of Lovelock Nv theres a reservoir with a nice camp ground and lots of great trails...

Any of that sounds good to me, we still have some time to figure it out, I just got to know what days to take off work, already have 12&13 off, desert would be nice, a lot more trails to ride than the Sierra's.

we never made it to this that day we were riding outside Austin but we were only a mile or two from it. so I can't tell you what it looks like for getting trailers in there! looks doable from Google earth.. but this is a hike by car but considered it as a days ride proximity to the Ghost town Belmont.

[Dune Rider]

I'm in for making it to Belmont. Dry camping is no big deal either.

lol well the Austin baptist church rv park may look a little primitive but the trail head is right out the back door... it has full hook ups and near town.

[Ajb9]

Belmont is a cool little town.. The court house has quite a history. The saloon is still in operation. drove there once and tent camped off my maverick at the campground there.

I'm out for cold springs but I'm not opposed to the Austin idea.

So it's still on at cold springs? Who is going to be leading the rides? I can make some gps tracks , looks like a lot of good riding, still open to everyone's ideas.

I have some saved tracks from last year out of there on GAIA gps that I would be glad to send you Mike... pm me your ph# or email and ill go over how it works.
As for dry camping in that area there are many places other than cold springs parking lot. IMO the only point of interest destination from there is the http://parks.nv.gov/parks/berlin-ichthyosaur and a few canyon trials. The distance from there to the trails out of Austin is a few hours drive each way with lots of open road but one could gas up in Austin. For that reason ideally a day ride out of cold springs and then move to the Austin area for a couple of days or do the B&B and tent off our rigs in Kingston even. Im still on the fence for doing just that and still making this just waiting to see if my friend can get the extra time off.

I'm still a definite maybe!

I don't mind dry camping (if it isn't too hot!), but I'm still somewhat miffed by the way Cold Springs treated our guys. I'll stay on the list for now, anyway.

[66Elco]

Id be in for Austin!

I with Barry on this one too, would still like to go somewhere, I can dry camp just fine, think if we still stay with the same dates we should choose a different location, never road out of Lovelock, is there good riding,and camping there? Or Pyramid Lake area, I've heard is good riding,

[Cowgirlt]

We are good for going anywhere as long as it is the same dates. We have a room at cold springs, but we can take the toy hauler and dry camp somewhere else!

This sounds good to us!

[Ajb9]

so.. lets chime in on our options...
Coldsprings has water, dump, restaurant, useable showers for those who need it. the point of interest is the Berlin park. I will call and see if and when its open to view. it was closed before
Austin has 3 small rv parks side of hi way with hook ups that sound inexpensive. The Austin rv and the Baptist church rv is next to each other but would need to call on there vacancy. there is restaurants, bars, gas, store. there. Not the Hilton but would work. Points of interest: Stokes castle, Toquima Cave, Kingston bar, Spenser hot springs, Diana's punch Bowl (kinda a drive but what isn't), Hickerson suit petroglyph to the east and the Famous Belmont court house far south(this is serious long ride but doable)... not possible to hit all of these in one day but its out there.

[Mike621]

So what do you guys think about going to Boca Rest ? No reservations needed in October, dry camping, but does have tables and fire pits, plenty of trails to explore in the Sierra's, can ride all the way to Border town for lunch, and out in the desert, also some good forest riding. Just putting it out there for discussion it's a lot closer, and lake should still be pretty good.

agree Mike, theres never a bad time to go there... never been to border town but lots of great views from the FS manned look out, and the 3 other look outs, the crystal mine is great too.

Yeah I've been to two of the four lookouts, never been to the manned one, or the crystal mines, and I've road 100's of miles of trails in the area, and still more to explore. [emoji1417]

This is a great idea, Mike. Nice campground right on the lake, tons of trails (although most are fire roads), and really easy to get to!

[Dune Rider]

I'm up for whatever...

Yeah right, so is this what everyone wants to do? Works for me unless someone else wants to go somewhere else, Boca just seems easy, we should all be able to camp together. Plenty to go explore. [emoji1417]

I heard Moonrocks was closed and given to the Indians. but there was a rock crawl event there last May so...not sure what the status is.

Earlier this year we road out of Scott's house in Reno, he was saying that a lot of stuff is closed down now cause of Tribal land now.

Yeah it's no problem, big camping spots, paved road all the way to campground, just make sure you go to Boca Rest campground, there's another one called Boca campground on the other side of the lake. Easy to get to.
