Very nice and peaceful! Has a nice little nature trail. Bathrooms were very clean . Make sure to throw out trash we did have a bear rub against our tent and go through our beer chest
I haven't camped here. But my friend and I drove through the campground to check it out in late August 2023. It is a beautiful national forest campground. There are so many tree. So green and lush. And let me tell you this: it was 98⁰ in Alamogordo and only 77⁰ in this campground. That's a huge difference. This is where I want to be during the summer.
It's a nice quiet place, it has a water station and clean enough bathrooms. The spot by the bathroom gets light up a lot in the night. There are a lot of silky worms hanging, flying and dropping everywhere. The manager said they are treating the area for weevil beetle, so is in recovering mode. He was helpful and agreeable. We got to see some deer in the morning. 😃
Our second time here. Love this campground. Peaceful nature trails within the campground and another just down the road. The camp hosts were very nice. Only downside is this is a no reservations campground- which is ok. But when other campers “save” spots for others isn’t fair to those that actually show up with their gear or trailers. This was over a holiday weekend where unfortunately several sites where like this. Luckily we got the last one.
Camp host was friendly and helpful. Vault toilets were clean and well stocked. Area was clean. Nice sites. Beautiful place! There were some pay showers at the beginning of the loop. Definitely going back!
