Bosque Redondo Park
Bosque Redondo Park, near Fort Sumner, New Mexico, is a straightforward campground that offers a no-frills experience for those looking to unwind. With picnic tables and fire rings available, it’s a decent spot for a night under the stars, especially if you enjoy a bit of peace and quiet.
The area is known for its spacious sites, which are great for larger groups or families. Visitors have mentioned that the park is well-maintained, with clean facilities, although you should be prepared for a lack of drinking water and electric hookups. As one camper noted, “I stayed during the week and there were other people, but each site was very spaced out,” making it feel less crowded.
If you’re into fishing, you’ll appreciate the nearby pond stocked with catfish and trout, perfect for a relaxing afternoon. Just keep in mind that the area can get windy, so make sure your tent stakes are secure. Wildlife is also a highlight here, with sightings of coyotes and bobcats, so keep your eyes peeled while you’re out exploring.
