Overview
This is the park’s RV sanitary dump station—an in-and-out utility stop near the Lehman Caves Visitor Center. It’s the spot to empty tanks, top off potable water, and toss trash before or after your stay.
What to Know
- Located about half a mile inside the park along the main entrance road (NV-488), close to the visitor center.
- Services include a sewer dump, potable water, and trash receptacles.
- No overnight parking or camping is allowed here, and no reservations are needed or accepted.
- Restrooms are not listed at the dump station itself; use the facilities at the nearby visitor center.
- There are no hookups anywhere in the park, so most RVers rely on this station during their visit.
Season and Fees
- Typically open late May through October, depending on weather.
- The fee is $10 per use; discounts do not apply to this fee.
Best Time to Visit
There are no posted hours in the research, but your safest bet is to use it during the regular operating season (late spring through fall). If you’re visiting in the shoulder seasons, verify status before you roll in.
