It's March and this park is in beautiful bloom. I have never experienced such spicy, fragrant and…read moregrassy smells in one short walk. Also, the bumblebees, birds and ladybugs were busy doing their thing. The dirt, small hill trail is to the right of the parking lot and the main complex of fields. It's dotted with exercise equipment, benches and covered picnic tables. It connects to a rugged trail along a fence toward a washout/open area. It also connects to a cemented path around the grass fields. Lots of parking. There are toilets. Playground. Not too much shade. Lots of people walking their dogs. Lots of families enjoying the grass field.

I went to The Refuge with a few friends, and the way the guy at the front desk treated us was bad…read moreenough that I think people should know before they go. I'm under 18, so my waiver has to be filled out by a parent. I was texting my mom so she could do it, which is the only way it can actually get done. He saw me on my phone, decided that meant I was filling out my own waiver and doing something wrong, and refused service over it. He never asked me a single question. He just made up his mind. That's the part I could get over. What I can't get over is how he treated the people around him. He talked to me like I wasn't a person, just an annoyance in his day. He also talked over the woman working next to him, answered for her, and bossed her around like she didn't count. If someone treats a paying customer and his own coworker like that in one short visit, I have a hard time believing I'm the only one it's happened to - in both a coworker and customer way. A climbing gym should feel welcoming. Refusing people over wrong assumptions and being condescending while you do it is going to quietly push people away. I'd really hope whoever runs this place pays attention to how customers are being treated at the front desk, because this felt like a pattern, not a bad day. I believe his name was Goreio, he's a short asian male with glasses and was wearing a green shirt. Hope this helps someone.

I'm a big fan of the dirt running track around the perimeter of the natural desert landscape (minus…read morethe cacti, which have been completely removed). I'm also a fan of the central grass area in the developed corner of the park. Unfortunately, the edge of the grass is currently littered with poop from small dogs. What is the solution? Maybe there needs to be more conspicuous signage and waste bag dispensers. Maybe a park custodian can be employed to clean up the dog poop on a daily basis. In any case, the underlying problem is the park being overrun by dog owners, which includes the irresponsible ones who don't clean up after their dogs. Especially, the small dogs, which are less conspicuous when they poop. The grass provides enough anonymity for their irresponsible owners to look the other way. I have emailed this concern to Clark County Parks & Recreation.

There are several dog poop all over the trail, left by irresponsible pet owners (Come on people! pick up after your dogs!) Come here early and if the weather is nice. It's an easy trail, just be careful you don't step on something gross.

There's also a swing made for children who are in a wheelchair, which is pretty awesome, allowing all children a chance to swing and have fun. The one downfall of this park is that it's across the street from a high school school. As soon as the high school got out, this park was filled with older kids playing on stuff that is obviously made for small children, almost knocking kids over, and being a little too free with the language. I'm not a prude, but c'mon you can't hold off on the F-bombs for a few minutes? Still a great playground with a lot of things to do and plenty of disable parking spots.

There is a park and water area here with some walking paths (I come for the walking paths) as it's in a convenient location for me. Not the best park in the city, but nice and clean. If you play soccer this would definitely be the spot for you. Lots of dog walkers come here that want a quieter park. There's also a very nice and new park with a splash pad, and musical instruments on the far side of this park (look for location on the signs or you may miss it).

May, 2024. This is a campground managed by BLM in the unique Mojave Desert environment. It features…read morestandard, RV, and group campsites in the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. Just 3 miles from the Red Rock Scenic Drive & Visitor Center and about 20 miles, and a world away, from the Las Vegas strip. The conservation area features hiking, rock climbing, bike riding, horseback riding. and scenic driving (reservations required October 1-May 31, 8 am-5 pm). Be mindful of the weather. Temperatures are scorching in the summer, and the campground closes seasonally during the hottest months (June 1-August 31). All standard sites include picnic tables, grills, and fire pits. (Some, but not all, picnic tables are covered -- a welcome sight on a HOT day). There are common vault toilets, trash cans, and drinking water (but no facilities to fill water tanks or to dispose of RV waste). All sites are nonelectric. The views within the campground are of a unique and pretty desert landscape, but they are not as spectacular as the scenic drive area just a few miles away. Temperatures were hot but bearable during the day and cooled nicely at night. The price was reasonable for a standard nonelectric site. $25 camping use fee, minus $12.50 discount for senior NPS pass, plus $8 online reservation fee = $20.50 for one night. Only two small quibbles to mention. (1) The signage within the campground could be improved. We had site 42 and drove around a few times before finding it. (2) There were quite a few restrooms with vault toilets. Each building had two separate rooms with toilets -- BUT the campground locked one side on two of the restrooms that we tried so only one toilet was functional. This created a queue in the morning. We would stay here again.

You're better off just driving another 15 miles and parking in blm areas. Or just pull up and don't pay.

Although it's one large splash pad, there is lots of space for everyone to enjoy and get wet. There are grassy areas where you can spread out a blanket, set up chairs, and relax while keeping an eye on your kids. There are also a few picnic tables available for seating. The shaded areas are especially nice during the Vegas heat. One downside was that the sprinklers in the grassy area turned on around 11:30 a.m. while people were still sitting there. It would make more sense to run them when the splash pad is closed or when fewer visitors are around. Overall, it's a great place for families and a fun way for kids to cool off.
