Best Campgrounds near Cloudcroft, NM

We ended up dispersed camping just down the road from this campground as all sites in and immediately around the campground were full. We opted to drive over a ridge and suddenly we were out of site of the main road and any other campers. The privacy and views were great! As other reviews have mentioned there are only 4 sites with more dispersed sites scattered on the road in and out of the campground. We got great views of Sierra Blanca. Best stars we have seen in a long while. High clearance would be needed and for a trailer a creative turn around could be required.

After half a week of boondocking we were in need of showers and laundry. This was our first time at a KOA. It was clean, quiet, and extremely convenient to White Sands National Park. The staff were super helpful and friendly. Our kids enjoyed the playground.

We visited on spring break with our 6 and 4 year olds. We scored one of the pull through sites with hookups after not finding a spot at Valley of Fires.

The bathroom facilities were very clean and well kept. This was a great place to camp and we really enjoyed the petroglyphs and the nearby village ruins. As a bonus our kids could run around and play where we could still see them. The view was breathtaking (mountains by day and clear stars by night).

Good little camp ground..stow your food away from tent had a bear visit while there..also the road getting there is prone to flash floods

Stopped in for one night for a cross country trip.

First KOA experience and it was amazing!

Bathroom ✅ Showers (small stalls) ✅ Laundry ✅ Store on site ✅ Nice privacy walls ✅

It’s very close to white sands main gate. The staff was very friendly and the campground was clean and manacured. The sell propane there and other odd and end things.

BEWARE: March is “Windy season”. We got caught on the first day of it I think! Big gusty winds at night for us. The drive there can get dangerous and could possibly expect a bumpy night in a camper there! Other than that it was a amazing experience!

This is not a concrete snowbird parking lot. It’s a campground with utilities. Comfortable and quiet for a reasonable price. The star gazing is fantastic.

Great views and very accessible. Although, at 1am as I was sleeping in my car, a UTV pulled up behind my vehicle and started flashing their lights. I quickly drove but they followed me down the dirt road. Pulled infront of slammed on their breaks but luckily was able to get around them and make it to the highway.

Great views with easy access for our overnight stop before heading into White Sands NP the next morning. A few other campers out on this cold January evening but it was quiet.

The coordinates are not exact. It's a little west of the air force base. Right next to white sands.

This is a very run down park, do not stop here! We stopped to dump and was told by the manager to go dump anywhere and then as soon as we dumped, it started back filling out. Then a lady came up to us and told us they were having sewer problems. Crazy that the manager would tell us yes when he knew it wouldn’t work for us.

Local to everything in Alamogordo. Propane available, laundry, cabins, hot as hell showers, water pressure is really high at around 155 psi. So definitely bring a regulator. Two KOA cats that are friendly so FYI

Everyone was super nice! Place was well kept and clean. Note: there is lots of railroad train coming by throughout the evening WiFi could be better. White Sands National Park is very close.

The pictures I saw didn’t do this park justice. That’s a switch. Yeah, the RV spots are gravel. But it’s southern New Mexico. There is an actual spring here. The trees around it have a couple of Great Horned owls who have come out nightly. But it’s the New Mexico sunsets and stars that make this such a nice place. Good price for full hook ups, and John our host is a really nice guy

Campsites are to close, Camp host DO NOT keep the quite hours. Parties destroy the quite. Parties going until 2AM.
Actually not really sure what the camp host does, they started a leaf blower during morning quit hours ( I could stay home for that). 

Saddle and Apache are nice with campsites further apart....but stay away from silver.
On a good note, if you are in Cloudcroft go to Mad Jacks BBQ.....the Beef Ribs are AWESOME, it is REAL TEXAS bbq.
