"Good spot for an overnight"

Very busy CB, so the parking lot is gonna be tight! But still a nice spot in a great location. Three people arrived at midnight, but hey its free. And of course that one Jack wagon in the 45' 5th wheel who felt it necessary to deploy all 4 of his... Read more

"Very tight."

Overall the campground is ok, but the park boasts of tons of land, yet has everyone crammed into a postage stamp. Kind of silly. With the new camping charges, plus $7 a day "utility fee" and additional taxes, my spot was $37 for one night crammed... Read more

"Everyone can stop freaking out now. "

Oh my goodness. A boondock spot that has not been reviewed by someone who has ACTUALLY STAYED HERE since 2017? The last review (by someone who was never here) warning of dead bodies, crime and serial killers? Well; as a retired cop, that's right... Read more

"Wild, wild west"

As a previous reviewer stated....great potential but the place falls short as the management seems to maintain an anything goes atmosphere. They were great on trash pickup though, and you can expect the little white pickup trucks to be clanging... Read more

"Quiet place, tucked away."

NM State Parks have gone with "Reserve America" now, and thus if you don't get a prior internet reservation (and pay the ridiculous $12 reservation fee per stay on top of your camping fees) it will be highly unlikely to get into many of their... Read more

"Surprisingly nice stopover"

Stopped here for a night on my way to Big Bend. The station is fairly new. I went inside to ask if I could stay the night and the two ladies were extremely nice to me. The store was well stocked and bathrooms very clean. But here's the best part.... Read more

"Nice spot and close to town"

This is one of the better BLM spots in my opinion. Most of the road is paved, albeit with a few good sized pot holes - so watch for those. Lots of excellent spots. Next time, I'll follow the paved section to the east as there were some real nice... Read more

"Nice park on the southern border"

The park IS NOT CLOSED. The dump station and restrooms/showers are however closed due to repairs, which is a bummer but they have provided porta johns while they figure it out. It sounds like they have no idea when services will be fully restored.... Read more

"Nice staff, clean facilities"

Only stayed one night. Never got to use all the facilities, but did tour them and they looked nice and well kept. The road noise is not all that bad, I've seen worse. My only complaint is some spots have a concrete pad. Whoever poured the pad for... Read more

"Nice place, great location, beautiful scenery"

Only intended to stay one night - however once I realized how nice the place was for a reasonable price, I signed up for 2 more. As previous reviews state the bathroom could use a little freshening - but they are functional and not nasty, just a... Read more
