    Jag's Red Carpet RV Park

    Best RV park in town

    By far the best RV park in town. Clean drinkable water. Clean shower and bathroom available to these who choose to not use their own. Lots of shade. Wildlife walk through the park often. Police patrol the area often. Owner lives on site and is very helpful when needed.

    Lake Alice - Sugarite Canyon State Park

    Nice campground with clean showers!

    Stayed: May 22, 2024 Cost: $18 Site: Lake Alice Loop - 01 Cell Service: None (AT&T and T-Mobile) Equipment: Tent

    We stayed in the Lake Alice loop in Site 1. We tented, but it looks like they have it split between tents and RVs, and this was technically an RV site. It had water and electric, so that’s why we chose this site. Sites were nice and clean, with a fire ring and table. Close to neighbors.

    Vault toilet in the loop and running water and showers located 1/2 mile from the Lake Alice loop. Showers were very nice for a campground. They were actual showers, not just concrete or dirty tile, and had plenty of room and hooks for clothing. Two showers per side for Men’s and Women’s.

    No cell service for either of our carriers, and I don’t think for any, until about a mile beyond the shower house, prior to the entrance of the park.

    Lake 13-Maxwell National Wildlife Refuge

    Easy access from I-25, not much privacy

    Great location about half way between Albuquerque and Colorado Springs. I snuck in late one night and napped 2 hours near the pit toilets and left before daylight, so as not to disturb the campers with my brief stay. Pit toilets a plus of course. Can be frosty.

    Great place to stop for the night

    This place sits upon a mountain and overlooks such a beautiful view! The staff are wonderful and make you feel welcome. The only thing that would’ve made the stay better, is if the spots were further apart. It was very busy so everyone was parked right up against one another. It’s a small place so it makes sense why it had to be that way, but still a great spot to spend a night or two!

    Carpios Ridge Campground — Trinidad Lake State Park

    Great Views! Nice hiking.

    Camped in a small RV in site 13 which had a fairly level gravel pad. There was a tent site, but it looked to have been washed away. This site had great views of the mountain and lake. Enjoyed the short hike on Levsa - a one mile loop with up high views of Lake Trinidad. The Carpios trail was steep and rocky. Didn't have time for the 3 other trails. Showers and Laundry nice. Saw some deer and a wild hare. Somewhat nearby is Capulin Volcano National Monument. Highly recommended.

    Overnight in Raton

    We called the day we were going through and the owner had a nice shady spot for us. Very friendly and hospitable. Would stay there again for sure.

    Lake Alice - Sugarite Canyon State Park

    Worth the price, kind of remote

    Small campground near CO border. Perks would be lake at top of mountain, 5-7 min drive from CG and showers, at entrance to park. Downfall is you need to drive to everything unless you want to walk along trails on the other side of road. Trails in park were nice - t-mobile service did not work at all, zero bars. Bear boxes provided, deer walked through campground often. I did see bear tracks while hiking but host said they’ve never been a human issue.

    Capulin RV Park

    Nice park, small, but convenient to Capulin Volcano

    Capulin RV Park is a pretty nice private RV park across the highway from the Capulin Volcano National Monument entrance road. We stayed one night. Some of the sites are shady. The park streets and sites are crushed limestone. The park was clean and quiet. The sites are very close together; fortunately, it was not full and we had room. Restrooms and showers were clean (did not use shower). Amenities include: common fire ring with seating and view of volcano, swing with view of volcano.

    Stayed in pull-thru campsite #25 which had evening shade and level. It was a crushed limestone site. There was barely enough parking for my 34 ft TT. Neighbors are VERY close. Utilities: 20/30/50A electric in middle of site. Water in middle of site, good pressure. Sewer in middle of site with 4-in screw-on fitting.

    AT&T had two bars of LTE service. AT&T Speedtest: 36.6 Mbps down, 7.5 Mbps up. Free WiFi is available, but did not use it.

    The town of Capulin, NM is very small. The closest restaurant is The Sierra Grande Restaurant in Des Moines, NM, which is open year round for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Other restaurants and fast food are available in Raton and Clayton.

    Would stay here again.

    Carpios Ridge Campground — Trinidad Lake State Park

    Close sites, but convenient location

    First off - we tent camped in this RV heavy campground. sites were a little too close for comfort. Coin-operated showers were nice but got dirty and gross quickly. Not far from town, and lake has lots of fun opportunities.

    Clayton Lake State Park

    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.

    Easy to access off 25

    Nice views, level, has a pit toilet, trash and recycling. It was a nice spot to spend a night heading home. There are several picnic tables too. We pulled in around 5pm on a Friday and there were 3 other vans in the camping area with plenty of room.

    GEM!

    2022 headed home from CO to Dallas and didn't want to stay in Amarillo again so we threw the dice and were able to snag an AMAZING spot (no hookups) for one night. Tha-t was all we needed to make this our go-to place to stop at beginning and end of each trip.  Lots of options for camping (we pull a TAB 400) - camp host was so cool and friendly. Absolutely beautiful views and clean facilities (we only used the toilets)  We were surprised and pleased with Sugarite!

    Carpios Ridge Campground — Trinidad Lake State Park

    Beautiful and Peaceful

    This is a beautiful peaceful place. I heard no road noise during my stay. All camping sites are nicely maintained. There are a few hiking trails that lead from the campground but stay away from 0.5 mile ridge trail that is very washed out and treacherous.

    Nice Stop for Volcano

    The couple running the park are very nice. Bathrooms are clean. The water is off for the winter season but they do have water to fill your tanks if you wish. It was $50 for our site for the night.

    Not much to see but good place for a quick stop.

    We stopped for a night on our way from Great Sand Dunes National Park to Palo Duro Canyon, needing to dump our tanks and do some laundry after boondocking for a number of days. Raton KOA was just what we needed. The staff members were friendly, bathrooms were clean, and the laundry facilities did the job. The close proximity to grocery stores was an added bonus!

    Carpios Ridge Campground — Trinidad Lake State Park

    Wonderful Place to stay!

    Well kept and quiet place to stay.

    Most sites have a gravel tent pad to use, if you do not have an rv or trailer.

    Several water spigots throughout the park as some sites are FHU, mainly near the front of the park. 

    Several trails to hike and wonderful views to see as well.

    Heads up, the main restrooms/showers and laundry close from Nov to Mar. There are smaller ones on the Eastside of the building that are accessible.

    Beautiful Views

    Nothing really to add to previous reviews; great location with absolutely spectacular views. Very friendly staff that is very helpful. Decided to stay here on the way back from Colorado. Again, great stay over.

    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

    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.

    Carpios Ridge Campground — Trinidad Lake State Park

    Great little state park campground

    This place has something for everyone: camping, hiking, fishing, boating on the lake, playground for kids, and close to Trinidad for supplies and dining. Camping spots are spread out enough and have some sites with great views of the lake and surrounding mountains. You can see plenty of wildlife walking around the campground and trail. Bathrooms, showers, and laundry are very clean and well kept. All the staff that we have met were very friendly and informative, and there is another state park opening near by called Fishers Peak which looks like it will have some good hiking. This is my second time visiting here (first was just an overnight) and we will definitely stop back here anytime we are in the area.

    Nice spot for a night.

    Stayed: 5/20/2022

    Cost: FREE

    Site: N/A

    Vehicle: Buick Verano

    Equipment: Tent

    AT&T and T-Mobile: Good service

    We had an extremely windy night that almost had us take the tent down and car it. If it wasn’t for that, this place was great. It’s a wide open area with trash cans and pit toilets. Nice little spot to setup for a night!
