Best Glamping near Arenas Valley, NM

This KOA is a convenient pit stop when crossing Southern New Mexico on Rt. 10. The gravél covered acre has been nicely landscaped around the perimeter. Road noise from the highway is heavy. The very clean shower dressing area was barely big enough to turn around in. All amenities are available including propane, which was served up by a grumpy technician.

It’ll be nice when New Mexico opens its’ State Parks to camping again so touring the State becomes possible.

Friendly staff, well maintained. Nice weather.

I’ve been hitting KOAs across the SW and this is maybe the nicest one I’ve stayed at so far. Excellent customer service, clean sites, bathrooms and a nice area. Just not liking the noisy geese at a pond nearby. Nothing they can do about that though!

Friendly staff, great area. Campgrounds clean. KOA Kabin was better than I expected. Wi-Fi password available. Tv in cabin l, heated, toilet and shower. Great place to stay whether just passing through, or staying awhile. Definitely coming back.

Great place to stay on the way out of town if on the way to get on CDR. Stayed in camping cabin. Can Uber to town if needed. Clean all heating worked.

Very clean and quiet. Very friendly staff. Along the road, but it isn’t that busy and not really a problem.

The staff are top notch! Young energetic and as helpful as can be. Friendly service, the facilities are very clean.

Amazing! Super kind, knowledgeable and friendly. They even brought me wood. Close to town and a ton of hiking! Super clean!! Would definitely stay here again.

Nice Park just outside/south of the Gila National forest. Perfect spot if one wants to park and then drive into the Kila forest or cliff dwellings. Has clean showers and laundry, and a nice couple that runs the place. Just a few miles north of silver city. Nice drive to get supplies in town

This was a great find! Perfect location to leave our trailer and go out exploring! Cliff Dwellings, hot springs, cat walk, farmers market, super cute old fashion bar and opera house Pinos Altos

Lots of pull throughs, clean showers, friendly host! Laundry great too! This is a gem, quiet and peaceful to boot!!

Very nice campground with full hookups and inexpensive prices. Quiet with many amenities like laundry and super nice room built to hang out with others

a place like from some safari movie, beautiful sunset, you can see a herd of cows. plenty of room for everyone and an easy route

This is a solid little campground with 3 (maybe 4?) campsites and few amenities. This campground is a “little” more hidden from the road than other nearby campgrounds. Railroad Canyon Campground has many trails to access the wilderness from, and a small creek running behind each of the three campsites.

The campground does have a toilet and trash service. Please clean up after yourself, and leave no trace.

The four campgrounds in this area (Iron Creek, Railroad Canyon, Upper and Lower Gallinas) are all closed in December 2021. Perhaps just for the season. Contact NFS for status.

Of the handful of formal places to camp, this is very small but very nice. Trees, a decent hike on a maintained trail. Only a few spots to take but cute if you get one.

Only 4 sites available. Some privacy from the road, which was better than the other campgrounds near by. By a creek, which is nice. Vault toilet. There was a trail along the creek that eventually crossed it, but the water was too high to cross.

Clean, quiet campground not far from Emory pass. Pit toilets, fire rings, and picnic tables. Only a handful of people there on Friday night

Nice CG for our overnight stay. Plenty of amenities. Guy in the office was very helpful. Level gravel spots, FHUs were in good order. Road noise from I-10 and trains on the Southrn Pacific - not a bother for us. We would stay here again.

Nice campground convenient about half way between Tucson and El Paso for us. Campground was very easy in and out, town is declining but appears safe, sheriff vehicle just in front of campground. Campground was close to 10 but not to bad noise wise. We had a very scenic drive up into mountains to silver city, cute old town, we passed through Gila national forrest , it's about 45 miles, but a very easy nice drive on very good roads. I would stay here again passing through, only 3 channels on air tv, but they have included cable of about 20 channels. This campground is very close or in the dust bowl area, but was not bad while we were there and it was a little windy. Enjoyed our stay.

Tucked in behind a small neighborhood just off I-10. We'll placed signs direct you to the campground, just in case you think you're in the wrong area. Depending on the time of year, there may be some snow on the ground. This campground is in great proximity to the Continental Divide Trail, if that's your thing.

Stayed one night on the way to Tucson, nice facilities are nice and clean and the clerk at the counter was friendly. I would stay here again!
