Black Mesa night sky
Not only were the stars and Milky Way amazing, but everyone was so respectful with dim red lights in yes. The facilities were very clean and modern. The site itself was private and comfortable. I’d happily book there again for future travel. I used a Thermocell bug device and it handled the bugs quite well.

Not camping

Corral RV Park (Dalhart)
Convenient Stopover
This RV Campground was very conveniently located on our route out of Texas. It was clean with well maintained camp sites. The staff were pleasant and helpful.
Our site was at the end, away from the street, and it was quiet with some shade.
We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent, clean, and safe.
There are many positive reviews about this place and I have to say they are true. Very clean and safe for a Solo Traveler. Two places to shower, use the one connected to the office as it has better water pressure. Excellent playground for families. All pull through sights for travelers. Really glad I stayed here and would definitely stay here again.

Nice Free Resting place
We stopped for 1 night on our trip from Albuquerque to our home in Michigan. Level parking area and clean pit toilets. No water available.

I'm sure it's prettier when the Grass is Green
Quick, one-night stopover. Adequate for what I needed. Toilets, but no shower or water. One big rig was there when I arrived, and a cartop tent camper arrived after dark. Again, fine for me in my teardrop.

Goathead Heaven!
We got there late last night, the management was friendly and helpful, the spot was nice and flat for the RV, it was quiet and peaceful… and good Lord the goat head stickers were plentiful. My dog was a victim!!

Great stop, peaceful and quiet
This is a bare bones campground but was a good, quiet stop on our drive. There are composting toilets, trash cans, picnic tables, and bbqs. Clean and just what we needed

Clayton Lake State Park Campground
Cute park and loved the dinosaur tracks!
Everything was very green in the 10 mile trek into the park. Our spot was in the Cove campground - noon-a and no water. We have enough solar power to sustain. The lake was gorgeous and the dinosaur footprints and tracks were really interesting! The spots are not right on top of each other - so very nice. They have potable water at the visitors center. There were candies with water and electric - we were too late to book.

Decent Stopover
Swing by on the way to New Mexico. The surrounding area is all flat grasslands, which don’t do much for me in terms of scenery. Bit boring. However, I would much have preferred to stay here overnight instead of the WalMart I wound up at instead! There is a toilet, picnic tables, and is very quiet and easily accessible. Wouldn’t make a trip to stay here, but would definitely use as a stopover.

Beware of Boyscouts
Only stayed one night. The whole place was booked mainly tween boyscouts and they were obnoxious but did settle at quite hours. We got up stupid early to leave before they woke up.

Just a stop over
Like everyone else has stated, this is just a spot to stop over for the night. Nothing special, just a gravel lot with a grassy area. There is a restroom, so that was a plus.
Jennifer W.TravelerBlack Mesa State Park Campground
Amazing view
Stayed in September, lots of goat head stickers. So those with pets be aware. Great campsites, bathrooms really nice (we rooftop tent camp). We stayed in the no lights area. Such an amazing view of the stars! We were lucky with a clear night. It’s a don’t miss if you are passing through!

Nothing special. Just a place to spend the night

Night Sky Viewing and Dinasaur Tracks
Clayton Lake State Park near Clayton, New Mexico turned out to be a pleasant surprise. It is a small state park with several small camogrounds spread around the reservoir which is popular for fishing. Our campground had about a half dozen sites overlooking the lake. The opportunity to see dinasaur tracks and attend star parties make this park unique. The campground host is an amateur astronomer who regularly hosts very well-attendedstar parties. Water and electric were available at our campsite, but the park does not have a dump station.

Clayton Lake State Park Campground
Nice comfortable place.
Beautiful area right in the middle of what seems like nothing but prairie. A canyon opens and there is the lake. Various sites, electric were all accounted for. There were plenty of picnic table/shelter primitive spots. Beautiful scenery. Good trails for hiking. Friendly host.

Stop over.
It is what it is. Arrived as a big storm was on the horizon. Rain all night so I didn't open my popup. It's really in the middle of nowhere and it's a giant rectangle gravel lot with log barrier. Picnic tables and a grills at some parts. Nothing but flat plains as far as you can see. Great for a stop over. No water.

Easy if you're Rollin through.
This is a great spot to do a quick overnighter while in the road. 30 per night. Tent or RV. Power and water. Shower house. Can't beat it.

Simple campground to get through Texas
Was heading through Texas to Utah and stopped here for the night. It’s a small picnic area that has plenty of space for tents, but not suitable for large RV’s.
Drove there in a small Chevy Sonic so any car will make it.
Pros:
- Small and secluded so not many people will be there
- Has lots of picnic tables and grills
- Clean Vaulted Toilets
- Has trash cans
Cons:
- Lots of bugs and flies swarming you
- No water fill up
- Extremely dewy mornings
Lee O.GuideWild Bills RV & Trailer Park
Easy, but limited in some ways
We’ve stayed a few times, there are always spaces. Just pick one and leave money in the drop box. That’s easy. But bathroom access is limited. Both times it’s been unavailable. Not the biggest of deals, but at times a little of an inconvenience. The place is clean and quiet. Stop in for a quick overnight. Oh and some spots have tables with a cover and shade trees too.

Completely check out for the weekend!
Small little park but if you’re looking to completely check out and chill, this is it. There’s a cute little river with swim bitch, nice private shower, and beautiful spacious sites. Every day we saw deer and wild turkey. There’s a nice lake, hiking, and dinosaur tracks. RV sites have 30amp and water. Most hookups are on the passenger side, so make sure your hose and cable are long enough.

Excellent small campground
One of the quietest campgrounds I’ve been to. People keep the light down to a minimum which makes for a very peaceful evening
