Mostly quiet, small campground

This little campground has 8 FHU & 2 water/elec sites. No “frills”, just fairly level sites, great rates & a friendly owner. A train track runs a 1/4 mile or so from the front of the campground, and 3-4 trains do go by at odd hours., so don’t stay here if you don’t like trains.

friendly and close to Bosque

This is a simple campground with sites very close to each other and without shade at the sites. It has a clean bathroom and shower available during the day. At night the only bathroom is a porta-potty which was clean and fine. It's out among ranch fields which were nice to look at and meant you weren't right on the road. It's a fine place if you are out all day watching the birds.

Convenient, clean, friendly

I took a chance and stopped here with no reservation after deciding that my planned camp reservation elsewhere was a dump. The nice owners were eager to fit me in for two nights during the crowded season for birdwatchers at the NWR. My site had only power and water, which was fine. There is a very nice, clean restroom available, so no need for sewage hookup, though most sites had it available. Very affordable and pleasant stay

Small and clean and convenient to Bosque del Apache

Very nice couple keep this place shipshape. We enjoyed their hospitality. Great price for the amenities and only 6 miles from viewing the migratory birds at Bosque del Apace.
