Best Time to Camp at Mcwilliams
Experience nature's natural air conditioning as temperatures drop a refreshing 20-30°F cooler than the Las Vegas valley below. Summer days bring perfect hiking weather with crisp mornings and comfortable afternoons, while autumn paints the mountainsides in golden aspen hues. Winter transforms this high-country retreat into a snow-dusted wonderland, occasionally delaying the campground's spring opening but rewarding patient visitors with pristine white landscapes and peaceful solitude.
Especially popular in summer; 20–30°F cooler than Las Vegas, ideal hiking weather.
Open through Oct 27; crisp fall weather and mountain views are attractive.
Opens May 15, so late spring visits are pleasant but season is shorter.
Winter access limited by snow; campground typically closed outside May–Oct window.

- Peak Season: May 15 to October 27.. Book 2-3 months ahead.
