River Ranch RV Park Introduce
River Ranch RV Park, located at 26876 US-70, Ruidoso Downs, NM 88346, is an RV park that offers a friendly and community-oriented atmosphere. As part of the "Campgrounds & RV Parks" category, it provides a place for both short-term and long-term stays, with scenic views and access to the Rio Ruidosa River.
Customer reviews highlight the park's friendly and helpful staff, as well as the welcoming residents. Many residents live there year-round, and some leave their RVs for the year, returning for the summer due to the affordable not-occupied site rates.
The park's location near Hwy 70 means that sites closer to the highway can experience some road noise. Sites vary in size, and it is recommended to book early as they can be hard to secure. Some RVs in the park are noted to be run down, but new owners are reportedly working on cleaning things up.
Cell phone access is limited, particularly with Verizon, and T-Mobile connectivity is reportedly non-existent. However, the internet service is described as very good. The park has only one bathroom with a shower, and there is no laundry facility on-site. The nearest laundromat is Cravens Laundromat, located 2 miles away, and Walmart is 5 miles away.
A significant feature of the park is its location along the Rio Ruidosa River, with some sites right on the river's edge. Guests can often see elk wandering on the mountain across the river and sometimes wild turkeys.
The campground offers nice big trees and a remodeled bath/shower room, and is considered good for the price. However, some areas are a little run down. Overall, it's a good place to stay for those seeking a friendly atmosphere and riverside location.
River Ranch RV Park offers a riverside RV park with a friendly atmosphere. Located at 26876 US-70.

Customer Reviews
A great RV park. Very friendly, helpful staff and friendly residents. Many live here year round but some leave their RVs for the year and come for the summer as their not occupied site rates are really low. Close to Hwy 70 so sites close to Hwy can be a little noisy. Sites vary in size so be careful in picking yours as sites can be hard to get so book early. Some RVs are run down but new owners are cleaning things up. Limited cell phone access with Verizon, I don't think t-Mobile has connectivity. Internet is very good however. Only one bathroom with shower and the one downside is NO laundry. Cravens Laundromat is 2 miles and Walmart 5 miles. The park backs up to the Rio Ruidosa River with some sites right on the edge of the river. You can see Elk wandering on the mountain across the river on many mornings and sometimes wild Turkey.
Close to Hwy 70 so road noise if your space is closer to the road. Nice big trees, by the River, a little run down, but small remodeled bath/shower rooms, adequate laundry area. Good for the price.
Very friendly manager we went looking for a travel trailer to buy and they pointed us in the right direction so hopefully soon we will be able to return.
We have lived at river ranch for about 31/2 years now. It is a great and friendly park with a beautiful river to go fishing. Gary and Carol (the owners) have always been kind to us making us feel like family. David and Donna Clements
Very pleasant experience. We stopped in to ask if we could shower here. Yes, $2. per shower. We were thrilled, as truck stops charge $16. per shower. Not your typical parking lot type RV park. This place has more of a camping feel with trees and grass.
