      Dream Catcher RV Park

      Escapee Park

      Nice level spot, but winds must blow year round in one direction, the trees are actually leaning. Nice check in clerk, but never provided a code to Showers. Locked by the time we tried the doors. Sitting outside at night the winds blew a constant Gasoline Vapor, even filled the RV. Great place for a one night stop, make sure you get the Shower Code!

      Rockhound State Park

      Nice Place

      Another really nice place in New Mexico. Near enough to the freeway, but far enough to not notice it. Near enough to town for a quick bite out or supplies, but far enough to not be bothered by it. Quiet and peaceful with good trails for walking the dogs.

      Facilities: Hot water, free showers, flush toilets, soap, dump station, not much more you need

      Cell Service: Good enough Verizon and T-mobile to work remotely

      Starlink: While we didn't need to use it, all sites are open to the sky if you needed to

      Solar: All sites are open to the sky for good solar

      Nice and easy to get there

      RSP is a nice state park. It’s quiet, the area is clean, and the hosts were great. If I were to do it again I would stay at a non electric site. They are closer to the mountains and more separated. For me the electric sites are too close with not enough screening between them.

      SaddleHawk Ranch

      Road Trip Campsite

      The animals are cute and the owners are friendly. It’s a quiet place to pull off the highway and spend the night. The night skies are very dark, so it’s perfect for stargazing.

      Hidden Valley Ranch RV Resort

      Very nice and not expensive, no tent sites

      2-night minimum, at the end of a maintained gravel road. I have a camper van, no hookups, and paid $48 for two nights. Large rec room with full kitchen, satellite tv, pool table, and pop/candy/ice cream for sale. Laundry and hot showers. Very friendly and a majority of sites are long time full timers. Cash or check only, no credit cards. Good wi-fi. Propane available. About 10 miles to town and 30 miles to City of Rocks state park.

      Overstay

      Clean, friendly, and flat. Planed an overnight stop but stayed 4 nights. Deming is in the center of many activities no matter your interests. Are you a rockhound or someone who wants a quick safe trip across the border or are you interested in visiting the chile capital of the world Hatch. Deming has you covered. Also a great museum

      Sunrise RV Park

      Desert camping

      I have to change my review, we spoke with Wayne the day before either he is forgetful or doesn’t listen well. We are looking for tent camping and always state that upfront because many camping grounds don’t allow it. He told us yesterday that the office closes early 1:30 pm, but just pick a spot and pay the next morning. When ever I go to settle up at 1030. Am he had forgotten the conversation. We have to pack up n leave. So no tents.

      Pancho Villa State Park

      Nice over night spot

      The camp ground, is down the road from Banjercito Mexico, nice place to visit. Camp sites are reservation only, except for 3 FCFS sites. The bathrooms, showers and dump station are closed until further notice. Nice museum and staff. Not much to see in Columbus, museum, restaurant and gas.

      Clovis, NM….Nice sized park

      Nice lady checked us in and we were shown to our pull through camp site. Nice size for our 42’ 5th wheel plus parking our Dually. They have an enclosed pool, laundry room and nice dog park that has a double fence. Playground was large. No grass. It’s close to Walmart and a cute little downtown area.

      Stopped on a whim

      Folks in office were exceptional. Didn't try any amenities, but park was quiet and clean and very reasonably priced. No grass or tables at site, but long and wide. Didn't have to unhook

      Great Stopover

      This Escapees RV park is right on the freeway and is a great stopover especially if you need hookups, a laundry and good cell signal. Facilities are excellent. It is not a beautiful place for camping, but it met all my needs including friendly, helpful service in the office. Wonderful dog park.

      Lucky to fine a site for one night, non electric but still fine. Excellent host and facilities. Sunset and sunrise are spectacular!

      Roadrunner RV Park

      Fine for an overnight

      We stayed for an overnight which was fine. It’s basically an unshaded gravel lot without much going on. They boast a club house with a hot tub and the game of pool—but the hot tub was in disrepair. They have a greenhouse but didn’t have anything going on inside it except some seating. There is laundry available but we didn’t take advantage of it.

      Because we had our AC running we didn’t hear all the traffic on one side and the train on the other. The sites were pull through and big enough to not even unhook. Close to your neighbor, but not too cramped. Lots of folks seem to live here.

      Claimed to have WiFi but we couldn’t connect to it once. That was a bummer. Didn’t try with the cable.

      Showers and toilets available and we’re in fine condition.

      Ultimately it’s not great, for the price, but it’s fine. It’s next to several options that all feel way more expensive than they should be for a stop over—but it’s too hot to boo dock without AC.

      We spent about $30 for the night. Sunrise RV park next door was $20 but no one was available to give us bathroom codes so we had to go elsewhere.

      Verizon kind of worked, ATT worked well.
