Nice quiet park to relax and get away from the summer heat. The park is in a small valley surrounded by pines. However there are no trees at the campsites. The WIFI worked well. I had no cell phone service with AT&T, but other campers told me Verizon had service. You have to go into Alamogordo for major shopping and groceries. If I came back to this area, I would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

When we drove up to the park, we were somewhat disappointed with the layout of the sites. The pull-through sites were strung along a narrow dirt road, rigs end-to-end but with some room between. If there were large rigs on either end of the site, a large rig may have trouble pulling in. There was little privacy. We were glad there were only 15 sites. The setting is very pretty, near national forest land, but rigs are out in the open. The hook-ups worked fine and there was cable and phone hook-ups for longer term folks. All sites but five, contained folks that had been there all summer. There is WiFi, with a strong connection, available for $3/day. There is a dumpster but no showers, office, playground, pool, etc. We stayed three nights and have to admit,the place really GREW on us. We could see why many of the campers return each year and spend the summer there. It was really quiet and laid-back and relaxing.The campers were SO friendly and the owners accommodating. I did not see any kids - seemed to be all adults that were QUIET. The male owner had a cynical sense of humor and he was a little odd, but that was ok. It is convenient to Cloudcroft, Ruidoso, and Alamogordo yet you felt like you were away from civilization. We ended up really enjoying our experience there and will definitely will return. I think this is the best campground with hook-ups in the area. I would have given it a higher rating if the layout of the sites were designed differently. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

A quiet and secluded RV park in the Sacramento Mountains of Southern New Mexico 6.5 miles east of Cloudcroft. The gravel road leading to the campground was very dusty in the dry season and washing of cars was not allowed. All hookups were relatively new and worked well. All sites had a picnic table and a semi-tire rim for a fire ring. Firewood could be collected in the nearby national forest. The campground is surrounded by mountains and forest, but the campsites did not have any shade. With the exception of a trash dumpster there were no facilities, not even an office. I would prefer to have restrooms. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Not too much to speak of here. Lake is fairly nice. More accommodations for tents and not too RV friendly. Enjoyed our stay nonetheless and would return for another visit. Daugther enjoyed the 'idea' of fishing as not too much was biting in the lake! We camped here in a Motorhome.

We really enjoyed the atmosphere and surroundings of this park. The sites are maintained and the staff is very professional and friendly. I wish they were open a little longer for the season; maybe depending on the weather, they could open a little sooner in the future. This is an excellent family getaway location. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

For the price real good. Its high in the Lincon forest 9000 ft above sea level. Always cool and the nights can get cold, even in the summer. The cg is old and needs some repairs, the showers and bath rooms are old but everthing works. They do clean them everyday but on the week ends they can get dirty. There is a stocked(trout) fishing lake. For us its the best cg in Cloudcroft that has electric. The National forest has some real nice ones but no elec. This one still has all the trees. Great for tent camping. Some of the sites need new picnic tables and grills (they have fallen apart) But for the price 12.00 its a good deal. Its a 45 min drive to Ruidoso so thats were we camp, and about half the price and 10 degrees cooler than ruidoso. Its a good campground overall. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We camped here for one night so we could get away to the cool mountain temperatures for a while. Overall it was a nice place to stay. Most of the sites are pretty narrow and close together, nestled on a hillside. However, most site are at different heights from the ones next to it so that adds a little privacy. Cable was good and WiFi was excellent. Lots of shade trees made it pretty. This is in the middle of a residential neighborhood which is quiet and pleasant. The house across the street does have a cluttered area outside, though. I agree with the previous reviewer that this campground is not within walking distance of shopping as the web site says. It's about a mile. Overall this campground is about trade offs. There are prettier and more spacious sites in the national forest campgrounds around town, but none of them have hookups. This place is a little more cramped but has good hookups, cable, and WiFi, and is just a short driving distance to the main shopping area. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Chose this campground because of what they offered even though their rates were considerably higher than other campgrounds in the area. Big mistake. The house next door and one a couple of houses down were occupied by people who were in some type of construction work. Junk vehicles, road equipment, lifts, etc. along with junk piled everywhere. Not scenic at all. Cable was fuzzy and no sound. Claimed they were within walking distance of shopping area. They were several miles from shopping. Only thing close was a restaurant and offices such as real estate, insurance, etc. No shops. Website very misleading. Would not go again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a small "mom and pop"-type park which we have been coming to for years. It's on the side of a hill and a few spaces may be difficult to back a heavy trailer into if you don't have four-wheel-drive; however, we've never seen anyone not be able to get into one. Some spaces are short and some are long, so its best to coordinate with the owners before you get there. We've never found anyone in the office, but check-in procedures are clear. They don't take credit cards but will accept checks. This is the only park in the town - we've stayed in some of the other parks nearby, but we think this one is the best. This is not a major park with lots of amenities, but if you like cool (9000 feet elevation), quiet surroundings in a simple but beautiful setting, this is it. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
