About Lucky Boy
Lucky Boy is a ghost town located in Mineral County, Nevada, sitting about 5 miles southwest of the town of Hawthorne. Its proximity to a larger community makes it relatively easy to incorporate into a day trip for those already exploring the area.
Given how little documented history survives about Lucky Boy, visitors should arrive with modest expectations. The site offers a glimpse into Nevada's past as a former settlement, though specific details about its origins and what physical remains can be found on the ground today are sparse.
