Stayed for a week in January with a group of 33 Escapees in 20 rigs, for a service project in the caverns.
The owners were very accommodating, and although the amenities are few, we enjoyed 7 very quiet nights in the dry camping loop, with our group able to gather for evening social events in the large pavilion. The staff even bought two large kerosene heaters to help keep us more comfy in the cold.
It's clear that yes, there are oil field workers here (we had no issues whatsoever with their presence), and also that the new owners are making improvements as quickly as they are able. I'm sure that as with any renovation/improvement project, their list is far bigger than their budget and time available.
I took a peek into the bath house, and it looked clean and serviceable, but lacked a little privacy with the shower stalls. I did not use them.
The laundry facility at the top of the hill (in the main shopping strip) is clean, very reasonably priced (1.50 wash, 1.00 dry), and the only machine that was out of order was clearly labeled.
It's a no-frills experience to camp here, and we'd do it again. We look forward to seeing how the place has improved if we return for this service project next year.

I’m not sure why people give this little RV park such poor ratings other than the fact that they haven’t traveled much in rural New Mexico. Although it is gravel the pads are level and the full hookup sites are full hookup. The electrical boxes are all wired for 50 amp, but as long as you have a 30 to 50 amp adapter that’s not an issue. If you don’t have an adapter you should get one as I have been in many parks where one is needed. So complaining about that just shows your inexperience.
The location is perfect for visiting the Carlsbad Caverns as they are just up the road 7 miles. We stayed in the back lot away from the road. The number listed for the RV park was outdated and we couldn’t call ahead. The new number as of 01-19-2020 is (575) 361-3665.
Even if you don’t call I would check it out in person. Stop at the gift shop where the big green aliens are and check in there first. That is where you pay for an RV slot. My understanding is they also have some dry camping RV sites as well if you are just doing an overnight and don’t mind boondocking. We found the staff very pleasant and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

Need to register at the store. First question from the kid was"do you have a reservation?" The website says they do not take reservations. Told the kid that I wanted a pull thru with 50 amp. Kid had to go ask someone for help. No pull thrus but back in. Went to the site, was level but had an incline right behind it. To back in, the utilities were on the wrong side so I pulled in and the truck was on the incline. Good that I didn't get sites 1 thru 6 since they were so narrow, I wouldn't be able to put the slides out. In the area I was at there were mostly permanent junky campers with tires and junk laying around. On top of that, WiFi didn't work at all. Wouldn't stay here again if they paid me.

We stayed on BLM land just south of here for 2 nights, then moved here for the hook ups while visiting the Caverns.
A little pricey for what you get, but it's the only option. They do give a good Sam discount.
Was disappointed in the spot. They put us in what's basically a parking spot on the main road. There are other rigs back in the park with spots that are more shaded with trees and spaced out, but those seemed to be for long term campers.
Laundry room was very nice. Super clean and inexpensive ($1.50 wash & $1.00 dry)
Minutes from the caverns
ATT LTE was full bars and fast
The only gas for a while is next door. A little more expensive than most other towns, but again, it's your only option.

After 3 days of dry camping we needed a night with power to charge the battery, fill up with water and dump the tanks. After 10 days on the road we needed a laundrymat. White’s has all these features and a very basic but adequate shower. It’s on the turn-off to Carlsbad Caverns (7miles up the road). Saw bat flight at caverns in evening, then toured the caverns the next morning. Check out is at noon so we could leave the camper at site. We were in a gravel parking lot right off the road but it was very quiet at night. Not a place to hang out, but fit our needs perfectly.

Stayed here to in order to dump tanks and replenish fresh water from boondocking.
Back in sites, had to disconnect trailer (not a big deal). Someone had dumped black tank on our site and no clean up had been done. Yes, it was dry but at the very least paper residue should have been cleaned up and site raked and washed down.
Convenient to Carlsbad Cavern. Very clean and new laundry machines. Store prices very high.

We stayed at a tent site with our RV since the hook ups were full and paid $21 dollars with the Good Sam discount. It’s $42 for full hook up. The bathrooms could’ve been nice, nice tile floors and walls, but they were soo dirty. The showers are locker room style showers with no curtains and face out to the rest of the bathroom. Definitely not worth the money.

We arrived at this location around 6PM, the gift shop is their RV park office. After they close at 7-8pm, you have to check in at the hotel across the street.
We travel in a converted cargo van. We do not have all the amenities a travel trailer has so we typically get an RV Site/campsite once every two weeks or so to refill our waters, hookup to power to top of our batteries, to dump trash, & do laundry all at once. Otherwise we are boondockers.
What we liked:
• Easy check-in
• Had daily sites available (Currently under a Gov. Shutdown so the Caverns aren't busy)
• Water
• 15-30-50 amps hookups.
• They let us park two vans on 1 site at no additional cost (with the condition only 1 van was hooked up, which make sense)
• They gave us a late checkout without problem.
• Really nice laundromat
• Convenient gift store with some grocery items.
• Sites were leveled.
• Road noise was not terrible despite daily sites being right on the road.
What we didn't like:
• The showers!!! We had two options: the shower room closest to the daily sites was frozen and/or not working. It was just a small room with a toilet and a shower, just one hook to hang your stuff otherwise it was on the bathroom/shower floor. It was cold out, but assumed that shower house would be heated but it wasn't. I only figured the water wasn't working when I got undressed and froze in the room trying to work out the shower.
They do have another shower facility further back in the park and they worked! Unfortunately, like another reviewer mentioned, they are awful. The 2 showers stalls have no privacy at all. I had to shower with my bare back exposed to other campers that were using the restroom. The shower drain is huge but not secured so it kept moving out of place while trying to shower. I could see an accident waiting to happen with someone slipping and getting their foot stuck in there (or children!).
The toilet stalls had shower curtains. Which they should spare a few more dollars to install 2 curtains on the showers as well. Because of the temps outside and the moisture in the bathroom, there was water from floor to ceiling and all the counters were wet and very slippery.
• Daily site is just a gravel parking lot on the road and a bit close together. Those sites are not part of the pictures above.
• The RV park itself is outdated and have long term tenants which really messy surroundings. Oil cans, trash and rubbish items scattered around the sites. Looks like the park owners don't mind if the campers clean up after themselves…
If it wasn't for the horrible bathrooms/shower I would had given this place a better rating.
If you have everything in your rig and only spending a few days and are willing to pay $40-$45/night to park in a lot with hookups, this place will definitely be convenient and good for you.
If you're like us and tend to visit RV park for their amenities, there are better ones elsewhere.

On the positive side, we arrived at 3:30, unhooked and were able to spend the rest of the afternoon at the caverns.
No wifi, although online listing indicated they had it. Verizon signal was good enough to get by.
