Most RV parks in the area accept pets, though specific restrictions may apply. Dump stations are available at select locations including Deer Spring RV Park and nearby Oliver Lee Memorial State Park.

      Silver Campground

      Love this campground!

      Beautiful scenery with huge tall trees. Site was spacious with fire rings and picnic table. Lots of hiking trails. Dump station and potable water fill area, but not at site. Dry camping only. $5 showers. Didn’t take reservations, but do have overflow area that is a huge parking lot. It could take a lot of “overflow”. There was still snow on the ground in mid April. No AT&T coverage, but Sprint worked. There were some steep grades getting there with tight turns. Fine for our Class B, but a big rig would probably be sweating. Concrete and grass RV pad. We used site 21 and backed up to the woods. Very cool. Bear country too, but didn’t see any

      Boot Hill RV Resort

      Convenient Location

      We were able to get in last minute for a two night stay.  We stayed in Site 604.  Pull through, level spot.  Very close to neighbor RVs.  But, nice and quiet.  Dogs enjoyed the fenced dog park (although gravel). Full Hookups.

      Location great for White Sands National Park, Cloudcroft, NM (Brewery up there at 9000 ft) and Las Cruces, NM.

      Alamogordo / White Sands KOA

      Helpful service

      I messed up thinking I had booked this campground - I hadn’t. It was five minutes to seven pm and the staff called me back and got me a site for less than $50 for the night. It was a nice, level pull through site with water/sewer/cable/electric. I was pretty relieved that we would have somewhere to camp - no one else picked up their phones.

      We didn’t arrive until nearly nine and the same staff person was still working - helping someone back into their site. She was very kind and welcoming.

      The next morning I checked out the campground. The area was pretty industrial, but less than two minutes to the science museum and zoo. Individual spaces were generous (especially the tent sites - they would fit any tent size) and I liked the little patio we had. The playground was newish, the pool looked like it would be nice when filled, the laundry room looked great (but cash only - I prefer the card ones) and there was a lovely store and rec room. There were also showers and a small dog run.

      This KOA had everything you could need - including excellent customer service.

      20-25 minutes to White Sands National Monument.

      Edgington RV Park

      Surprise win for a few days

      Dint judge a book by its cover… this is a well run place. John keeps everything clean and maintained. If you need a stopover to see white sands and everything else is booked, it is better than you expect at first sight.

      A handful of sites are available for short term folks - all long pull through - option with/without sewer. The non sewer sites are along the pond and afford a bit more privacy (wish we’d done that - don’t make our mistake). It is mostly like long term stays and older rigs but don’t let that dismay you.

      Sites go opposite directions and are snug - so you’ll be close to your drivers side neighbors and have a shared space with your door side neighbors if you go for a with sewer pull through.

      What brings this up to a 3 is the meticulous care of the owner/manager John and the surprise amenities. A pond, a small play set (swings, slide) nice laundry room, some exercise equipment including a pretty modern bow flex! And a great book room that has a chalkboard some desks and a couch if you need a fresh space to work. He even has sleds to loan out for the dunes.

      John’s a Vietnam vet and a great character. He runs a clean campground and will take care of you. It makes the grounds feel safe and well tended. Would definitely support this business if we came back through.

      Pine Ridge RV Campground

      Not for families

      Scenic and wooded, but was hoping for more privacy. Sites very tightly packed, I could literally reach out my window and touch the neighbor’s awning. 30 amp at my site didn’t work, used 50 amp w/adapter so not a big deal but annoying. The demographic here is older, mostly retirees here for extended stays. Stayed 3 nights, did not see (or hear) any kids other than our own, didn’t see anyone under 45 other than us either so not the best place for kids/families. It it’s also very tight driving through with a trailer and very tricky backing into the sites due to hills and tight sites. Location pretty good, 3 min to Walmart, 15 min to grindstone lake, etc. NO fires allowed, regardless of any local burn bans in place or not... bummer.

      Oliver Lee Memorial State Park Campground

      A Place to Stay

      Oliver Lee Memorial, NM: We stayed in Loop B, non-electric. I did not evaluate Loop A. Good location for visiting White Sands (Scale 1- bad, 5-Very good

      (71 yr olds in 17’ trailer.)

      Overall Rating: 4.5 Great campground layout. Well designed. Sites are staggered giving view grand view for all sites Security: Desert vegetation does not offer privacy Site Spacing: Great . Toilets and Showers :There is a dispersed camping area nearby, therefore, showers/flush toilet building is shut down at night to avoid their unauthorized usage of facilities during the night. Scattered pit toilets are always available. Usage during visit: 95% full Site Privacy: No Site Spacing: GREAT Reservations: Yes Campground Noise: Quiet Outside Road Noise: This campground is at the end of the access road. Through Traffic in campground: No Electric Hookup: Loop A Sewer Hookup: No Dump Station: Yes. Open from about dawn to nighttime to avoid unlawful use. Potable Water Available: Scattered spigots in Loop B. Bathroom: Pit toilets and one nice shower/flush toilet facility. Showers: Private stalls. Pull Throughs: Some Cell Service (AT&T): Good service from our site. Setting: Nestled close to the mountain range with nice views of the desert below.
      Recent Weather: Sunny. 60s to 30s Solar: GREAT Insects:None Host: Great hosts Rig Size:Large rigs Sites: best sunsets sites.:42, 43, 44(however, you can see the sunset from most sites.). Nice view sides: 41, 40, 39, 38, 32, 33, (35, 36, 37, great views just close to the bathroom). Every site here has an extraordinary view. These are just a little bit better, in my opinion.

      Oliver Lee Memorial State Park Campground

      Great location! Super clean

      The campground is located in the Oliver Lee State Park, with access on paved roads. There is a dump and water fill station at the entrance. Many sites have electric and water. All have picnic tables, fire rings/grills, but no shade. The Comfort Station is well kept and clean, with running hot and cold water in showers and sinks. Toilets have running water. It’s very quiet in the night so you can enjoy the sound of night creatures. Sadly, although there is electricity at the sites, generators are run at times tearing up the silence and tranquility. Hiking trails are accessible from the campground, a strenuous treck into Dog Canyon and an easy Nature trail. The park is only twenty minutes from White Sands National Park. Great experience! I would come back here any time!

      Cloud Climbing Railroad Cabin and RV Park

      Perfect little gem

      Super friendly owners. A beautiful and picturesque location in the Sacramento mountains. Easy in and out just a few miles from the village of Cloudcroft in the heart of the Lincoln National Forest. On property hiking trail, and an excellent common areas. Fruit trees abound, and picking fruit is allowed in season. They also have a cabin with multiple rental rooms. Full RV hookups and wifi at very reasonable rates. It is close to the road, but traffic is minimal at night. They are open year round!


    Guide to Mayhill

    Mayhill, New Mexico sits at 6,500 feet elevation in the Sacramento Mountains, providing a climate that's cooler than surrounding desert areas. The Lincoln National Forest surrounds this small community, with pine and juniper forests creating natural boundaries between camping areas. Summer temperatures typically range from 50-80°F, while winter can bring snow and freezing temperatures.

    What to do

    Hiking nearby trails: Lincoln National Forest offers numerous hiking options within a short drive of Mayhill. At Cool Pines RV Park, guests appreciate the convenient access to nature. "Hiking trails nearby and also planning a day of exploring the city of Alamogordo. Zoo, Space Museum and Train Depot only 23 miles away," notes Joseph W.

    Visit White Sands National Park: Located about 54 miles southwest of Mayhill, this unique landscape features brilliant white gypsum sand dunes. "We stayed here a week and now wish we had booked two weeks. Lincoln National Forest is a little slice of heaven," says Mark from Cool Pines RV Park. Some campgrounds even provide equipment: "They even have sleds to loan out for the dunes," reports Jeff H.

    Explore mountain towns: The charming mountain town of Cloudcroft is just 15 miles away. At Mountain Meadows RV Park, campers find it's "about 30 minutes from White Sands National Park and Cloudcroft. The host is very responsive and helpful via call or text," according to Tijana & Andrew C.

    What campers like

    Cooler temperatures: The mountain elevation provides relief from desert heat. "Just came from Midland TX where it was around 98, today at Cool Pines RV Park 72° at 3pm in the afternoon," writes Joseph W. This temperature difference can be significant, especially during summer months.

    Natural surroundings: The wooded areas around Mayhill provide shade and scenery. At Midtown Mountain Campground, "Large abundant pine trees provide lots of shade," mentions Phillip W. Similarly, Jeff H. describes Cool Pines RV Park as "15 acres of wooded pine slopes with lawn. Wildlife and friendly people."

    Peaceful atmosphere: The quiet setting attracts many campers. "Very quiet and relaxing, & convenient to the town of Cloudcroft," reports Moe F. about Cool Pines RV Park. This sentiment is echoed at other locations, with Ronald noting, "Since it is after Labor Day the campground was not busy, and they did a great job of keeping us spread out. It was very quiet and relaxing."

    What you should know

    Site spacing varies: Some RV parks have close quarters while others offer more space. At Edgington RV Park, "Sites go opposite directions and are snug - so you'll be close to your drivers side neighbors and have a shared space with your door side neighbors if you go for a with sewer pull through," explains Kristen M.

    Weather considerations: The mountain climate can change quickly. "We had a massive thunder storm in the middle of the night, which was slightly terrifying. I'd check the weather in advance," advises Andrea about Mountain Meadows RV Park.
