Awesome little campground in the high desert just west of Carrizozo. I arrived around 830 pm on a Saturday night in the middle of August and had my pick of spots. Fellow campers were quiet. RV hook ups available and showers/toilets available for both RV and tent campers. You can hear infrequent cars on the nearby highway (US 380) but it didn’t bother me. There are little grill tops near picnic tables, but the wind kept me from getting a good fire started. There is a roof shelter over the picnic table as well. Amazing sunset and sunrise and incredible stargazing. Only complaint is the bugs. SO MANY BUGS. No mosquitos that I noticed but plenty of annoying lava gnats and bigger things. Bring your bug spray. $7 for tent sites, $18 for RVs. Lava field has some paved trails through it, but it would get awfully hot during the day with the black rock. Might not be great for kids. Cacti with big ole thorns and the campground bordering the lava field have a bit of drop off. This campground holds a place in my heart, I’ll be back again.
Traveler
Must see recreational site with 2 trails, 11 picnic areas with shelters and grills, and really clean restrooms located south of Carrizozo, NM, and north of Tularosa, NM. Quick day trip after White Sands National Monument, Alamogordo, NM.
Open daily from 8 am to 5 pm. Fee area. Only $5 for day use but cash or check only. National Park Passes such as America the Beautiful, Golden Age, Active Military are free day use and half off dry camping/RV hookup. No camping yet.
Three Rivers Trading Post located 4 miles from site can make change. Park Hosts on site are very friendly and helpful but cannot make change.
Free Trail maps are available at Display Board next to fee drop box. The trail map explains petroglyphs at 11 stations. Covered rest area with scenic views of Sacramento and Godfey Mountains located after station 11.
Dogs and other pets must be leashed in campground (no camping in the 11 sites and 2 RV sites since March 2020 due to Covid). No dogs on trails allowed.
Main petroglyph trail is moderate, not easy, as steep in some parts. Be careful to stay on trail due to sharp thorns from mesquite and the possibility of rattlesnakes. Bring lots of water as this is Chihuahuan Desert. Hiking boots recommended.
Village trailhead begins in the campground and continues across the road from the entrance sign. This easy flat 1/4 mile loop showcases 3 reconstructed Jornada Mogollon pit homes.
Camping not open. When open, the 2 RV sites have electricity and water. No dump station. Closest dump station is BLM Valley of Fires, Carrizozo, NM. When open, 11 dry campsites with upright grills and garbage cans. Five of the 11dry sites have clean elevated tent boxes. Water spigot located by Village trailhead. Don' wash dishes in the bathrooms. 14 day limit for both RV and dry camping. First come, first serve.
When open, RV hook up is $18 a day, and dry camping is $7 a day.
This is a great day trip. Most people take an hour on the main trail and then picnic.

New owners to this RV park. They plan some upgrades in the near future. The park has two sections, one for long term residents and one short term. 30and50 amp service available. Has buddy sites as well as individual sites. All size vehicles welcome.
Guide
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
Guide
This RV resort is hidden away near Ruidoso and adjacent to Lincoln National Forest. Small and quiet away from the traffic but close enough to all the sights and attractions in the area. This resort makes a perfect home base.

We tent camped at Eagle Lake aka Eagle Creek campground on the Mescalero Apache Reservation over Memorial Day weekend 2022. The surrounding Lincoln National Forest was closed because of extreme fire risk, so there were very few places to camp in the Sacramento Mountains and escape the heat of El Paso. We used camp stoves because of a fire ban. We camped among the pine trees in the first tent area. There were clean porta-johns in that area. The showers and permanent bathroom were located up in the RV park about a 3-mile round trip walk on the road from the first tent area, so it’s more practical to drive to the showers. The permanent bathrooms and showers were clean.
Very pretty scenery, surrounded by mountain ridges and peaks and pine forest. There were two small lakes and a small creek flowing through the campground.
The campground format is kind of laissez faire because there aren’t assigned sites and it’s first come, first serve. The first tent area seemed about half full and we found a good site. We didn’t scout the second tent area because the host said there weren’t as many trees there. The first tent site was developed on a forested slope albeit they built flat rectangular-like terraces into the slope where you can pitch a tent(s) and park your vehicle(s).
Eagle Creek, near Ruidoso, had a similar feel to the Mescalero Nation’s Silver Lake campground near Cloudcroft, but Eagle Creek had a more quiet vibe. The main drawback was the 10:00 am checkout time, but we were still able to cook up some breakfast burritos as we broke camp. Good times.
Update 6/22/2022: At some point after my review, the Dyrt deleted the actual campground, which is where the road forks and moved my review to the nearby and similarly named RV resort, which is totally different. I love the Dyrt and I’m a pro ranger but sometimes c’mon man.
TravelerGreat hike to see 20,000 plus Jornada Mogollon petroglyphs, 1 mile round trip. Fee area, $5 cash only. Dogs leashed in campground/picnic areas and no dogs on trail.
Really clean picnic areas and flush bathrooms. 11 picnic sites, 1 ADA. Campground closed but when open there are: 2 RV hookups (water and electric 30 amp and 50 amp, no dump station) and 11 dry camping sites (5 of the 11 have tent boxes). One water spigot in campground. Each site has a picnic table, shelter, upright grill, and garbage can.

This was a decision while we were in Alamogordo trying to find an RV place in Ruidoso. What sold us to be there was the 5 star review. We knew the spaces were tight and it was in a commercial area but we were curious what it was about.
We were very happy with the two nights we spent here. I think the ease of picking a spot that worked for our situation, the clean park and bathrooms and friendly staff and neighbors made it surprisingly one of the best RV experiences we’ve had.
The high was 75 and the low was 45. It rained the first morning for about an hour. The main road is noisy, but we knew what we were getting into so it didn’t bother us.
The best part about this place was how close it was to stores, food, and gas. It’s really opened my eyes to how we can RV parks as a pass through in our journey to take advantage of electric and water and experience the local food and shops.
Ruidoso alone is a quintessential mountain town and it’s a must see visit in Lincoln National Forrest.

Campsites are level full hook ups. Nice people they have Wi-Fi nice bathrooms there’s a really great grocery store downtown called the B St., Café. It was $36 if I paid cash and that was with a 10% discount
Scout
No phone service Verizon or ATT Also bathrooms and showers are closed. They said they only had water & electric sites without telling me about the closures. I can see plenty of full hook up sites that are empty. Nice setting but I can't recommend this place.
Traveler
Would have given it 5 stars but the road going in to campsites are very rough and in of need some TLC! With that being said this is a beautiful place to park your RV and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Full hook ups for $33. During our stay we had regular visits from a group of about 11 male mule deer! Bring your hummingbird feeders you won’t be disappointed! We will be back!

Stayed at this Rv park in march of 2019. A clean park located in the middle of Capitan New Mexico. The location is very convenient about 20 miles from Reuidoso 25 or so miles from Carrizozo and Fort Stanton in the east the receptionist Sharon is very contentious and helpful.
GuideNow called "Slow Play RV Park", under new ownership. Lots of spaces, with 30 & 50 amp hook up. Very nice property, with good paved roads throughout. Bathrooms and showers were impressively clean. There is a laundry room, and a game room with a few arcade games. Peaceful evenings, with enforced quite times. The front office has a store, with can drinks, toiletries, shirts, caps, a few over the counter medicines, and some misc RV things like hoses and dig bones. The staff is super helpful and friendly. They drove around the park just checking on everything. I will definitely be returning!

We have stayed here many time, the owners are great and the rv park is great.
Guide
Best rv campsite in the area clean and spacious sites , access to the River, firewood for sale and friendly owners. We have camped here the last 3 years and we love this place. Matt is a great host always helpful and kind. You will love this campground !
Traveler
Honestly one of the nicest RV parks we've stayed at, and we are full-time travelers. Lots of trees, very quite, excellent wifi plus cable. Roads are steep and turns are tight, so if you have a big rig, you may need to stay near the front. We have a 30 ft and managed to stay at the top, although we had to use leveling blocks. Chatted with the owner and he is working constantly to upgrade the sites.
TravelerThis park is quiet and peaceful with lots of birds and nightly visits by elk. Shannon has some beautiful flower bushes around the whole park and they were blooming when we were there. All sites are pull through. Our site was wide enough for my 32ft travel trailer, my pickup, my partner’s car, and his trailer with his motorcycle on it, and we still had room to move. There are mature trees at each site and throughout the park, and there’s an open field behind it. It is truly a hidden gem. We stayed for a month and 4 days, and it never filled up. Definitely better than most RV parks I’ve seen.
RangerUnder new administration now its call Slow Play RV Park. Friendly and helpful owners. They will make sure your stay is as smooth as possible. Clean & quiet site with a dog walk trail.
Highly recommended if you are visiting Lincoln National Forest.
ScoutOverall, a pretty mediocre RV park. Typical tight sites and nothing as far as outdoor activities are present at the park. Park is right in the middle of town, so very convenient to a lot of shopping if you are into that kind of thing.
GuideOne of the best appointed rv parks we’ve seen! Sites are close to each other but it actually provides a cozy atmosphere on the grounds. A disco/star lamp at night lit up the trees. Charming! Walkable to town. Full of art and crafts from the owners. Would love to return.
Guide
We stayed here with our daughter and there is a “hall” on site that guests use for parties and gatherings. The loud music and drinking went on late at night and did not let us sleep. We ended up leaving early. The sites are clean and even , there is a nice table to sit and relax. The rv park is close to the Main Street , however we will not stay here again. Rude and loud parties are not our idea of relaxing
ScoutFirst time ever I’m going to Ruidoso me and my wife didn’t really have a plan one night after sleeping in the Walmart parking lot we were driving down and saw midtown and asked if they do one night rentals at a time teepee site wasn’t fully done, but they allowed us to stay in there for a great price and helped us out when we had no idea what we were doing. I want to thank Midtown campground & RV park for the amazing time we had there
Legend
Pros: Full hookup (sewer, water, 50 AMP) Pull thru sites Nice Scenic View Rates are reasonable
Cons: No real amenities Limited shade
GuideThis campground has a very nice host that keeps the campground sparkling! There are sites with electric and water. And very nice primitive sites also. Great views of Valley from all sites. Showers were clean and free! Very clean dump station. Close proximity to many other areas of interest that made for great day trips. Lovely section for tent campers just past the RV camping. Quite a few big rigs.
LegendNice Campgroung, relatively quiet. Staff is kind and friendly. Full hookup sites, spot are big with picnic table. Amenities are very cleans, little market, gim and laundry. There is full Art and Crafts in perfect place!!! Really nice campground- Recommend!

I have been to this campground many time. It's one of my favorites because it's open all year! It is 4 miles from the Three Rivers Petroglyph National Park and the portal to the White Mountain Wilderness area in the Lincoln National Forrest. This area is great for car/RV camping....but also great for backpack camping. My husband and I have done both several times.
TravelerLovely level sites, as I am in a van. Spacious sites, firebox available, tables at the sites, deer, wild horses come to visit. Firewood available per bundle.
