bobsallyh Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 The Prospector RV Park adjacent to the Prospector Hotel and Gambling Hall in Ely, NV. on US 93 was demolished last week and will not be rebuilt. This was a popular stop over for Rvers heading north and south to Arizona and the Pac NW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missourijan Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 We stayed there a couple of times, wonder why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobsallyh Posted April 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Well the Prospector and the downtown Nevada Hotel were sold some time ago to members of the Gaughan family, South Point Casino in Sin City. That might have something to do with it. Only 22 sites but when we stopped there just about every spring and fall, by 7 PM. they were full.

docj Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Thanks for the information. I have now edited the listing for this RV park on RVParkReviews to reflect the closure. In the future, I encourage anyone who leans of similar situations to please send a message to the RVPR Help Desk using the Contact Us link on every page of the site. Or you can simply send a PM to me and I'll take care of implementing the changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twotoes Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Wow. I’m at the Loves truck stop at the intersection of I-15 and US 93 right now. I was heading to Ely. Guess I’ll park here for the night and head all the way to Twin Falls ID tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou Schneider Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Valley View RV Park is a good alternative in Ely. About $30 a night last time I checked, lots of shade trees and large sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LindaH Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Sorry to hear about this. When we first started using this RV park, it was free for one night (may have been more...it's been many years ago and my memory is fuzzy). While it wasn't anything fancy by any means, it was a convenient stop and the price wasn't too bad. The last time we were there was in November 2015 for an overnight stay. It snowed about 6" overnight, though, so we spent another night before heading on our journey south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobsallyh Posted May 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 Found this in the Ely, NV. newspaper today. Sounds like the Shoshone Tribe will be putting in a small RV park. Should be a good location since it is near the US 93 and RT. 6 junction. http://www.elynews.com/2018/05/18/prospector-donates-rv-hookups-to-the-ely-shoshone-tribe/#respond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
