The Sam Tobias Memorial area is a fantastic place to set up shop for a camping getaway or a break from the norm stay-cation. It has fantastic scenery and plenty of room to get lost in the Ruidoso beauty.

Beautiful park with lots of trails. Rangers should be checking roads more as people kept parking at the entrance of our site blocking our sign for our group. Other people tried to park and even camp at our site that we paid for. Good group camping with plenty of spots for RV dry camping and tents. Rates for 80 people but 2 latrines really are not enough 50 let alone 80. Pump for well was there but it was really stiff. Electric plugs at pavillion were not working when we got there and the station was closed as it was evening. They did come get it fixed within about 2 hours the next morning.Nice fire pit though we did not get to use due to fire restrictions.

The park was closed, so I can't say too much about it. But we hiked one of the trails and it was well maintained and well marked. I would definitely go back and explore some more.

Great local area, but still close to town. Go camping up there once a year for 3 days. Great hiking and mountain biking trails.

A very nice campground. It was kept in very good shape and has many places to go for entertainment and seeing nature and exploring. I would definitely go again.
