There’s A Themed Hotel In The Middle Of Nowhere In Nevada You’ll Absolutely Love

Themed hotels and motels are all the rage. When one thinks of a themed hotel in the middle of nowhere, Nevada, Tonopah's Clown Motel comes to mind; however, this article is about lodging visitors will love. If you aren't afraid of creepy clowns or ghosts, then, by all means, consider checking out the Clown Motel. However, for those of us who are more, um, sane, here's a better choice.

In a state that loves its old western and mining heritage, it makes sense that there would be several such themed resorts. However, for a truly fun themed hotel far from the hustle and bustle of big-city Nevada, the Bonnie Springs Motel Resort is a themed motel in the middle of nowhere you will absolutely love. Take a look.

Bonnie Springs Motel is located at 16395 Bonnie Springs Road in Blue Diamond. Opened in 1989, this unique motel sits a mere 5 miles from Red Rock's Visitor Center.

Located in the heart of Red Rock National Conservation Area, Bonnie Springs Motel is the only lodging facility in the Red Rock Canyon.

The view of Red Rock National Conservation Area is jaw-dropping.

This fun, themed motel provides visitors with a taste of the old west. In fact, the motel sits next to Bonnie Springs' Old Town attraction-a replication of an 1880s mining town.

All of the rooms are Western or Indian themed.

Many of the Western-themed rooms have gas log fireplaces. Suites are also available which offer a master bedroom, queen-sized sofa sleeper, two television areas, and an equipped kitchen.

Several themed jacuzzi suites are available including Spanish, peacock, American Indian, covered wagon, and 1890s themes. Sorry, but children and pets are not permitted in these rooms.

What is an Old West motel without a swimming hole, er pool? The pool is open during the spring and summer months only.

The motel's restaurant is equally Wild West themed. Incidentally, following the 9/11 attacks, Bonnie Springs took all the money pinned to the restaurant's ceiling (a whopping $18,744) and donated it to the Blue Diamond Volunteer Fire Department.

Horseback riding is available everyday, and there's a fun petting zoo for kids of all ages.

Bonnie Springs Motel is part of the larger Bonnie Springs Ranch that is chock-full of activities (and some ghosts as well, as is the case with pretty much all of Nevada); however, there hasn't been any reported paranormal activity in the motel.
