The campground at Echo is a ways from the water now, about a mile, used to be right below the camp ground when the water was high. If you need the "facilities" then you're stuck to the camp ground.
I have boat camped on Mead many times, and there are places up by Stewart's Point where you can drive down to the lake, and camp.
I always get away from roads while boat camping at Mead as you never know what type of yokel you'll run into out there. Stewart's Point is far enough from Vegas that you shouldn't have a problem. Google earth it.
Willow Beach is a great place, if you haven't been there before. Camping isn't at the water's edge, but they have good facilities. Trout, stripers, and smallmouth bass down there. Need to check reservations on camping there, seems like a busy camp ground, where as Echo has been a ghost town when I've passed by it the last couple of years.
