    BLM Near City of Rocks

    Good location near City of Rocks State Park

    Easy access thru BLM Gate just north of City of Rocks State Park. Decent road for 25' RV with at least 6 level spots to park or camp. Cell was spotty except at top of hill. Very private no other campers.

    Rockhound State Park Campground

    Beautiful and small state park

    Only here for one night but the Mountain View’s and stars at night were incredible. Camp host Karen is very nice and does a great job getting to you for check in. Hiking trails are in the park.

    Rockhound State Park Campground

    Pleasant surprise

    So far I have appreciated a very clean campground and facilities. The street is very wide, so big rigs have no trouble backing in or leaving. Rockhounding is a real outdoor activity here. Sites all appear level at the trailer axle. Sites are well spaced.

    Rockhound State Park Campground

    Great view of the valley

    A lovely campsite on the side of the Florida mountains, naturally, landscaped by desert flora, overlooking the chihuahuan desert. I loved that the campsites were on different elevations, and surrounded by desert plants. Each site had a picnic table on a concrete pad with a shelter, fire ring with grill and trash bin. Parking was on gravel. Even the gravel had collectible stones! Hot showers, and flush toilet and water available. There is one advertised fully ADA accessible site. If you want to stay here, you should make reservations well in advance. We were lucky and able to get a last minute cancellation spot day of. Do not miss a visit to the Geolapidary Store and Museum in the Adobe building with all the solar panels about a half mile down the road from the campground entrance. Fair T-Mobile coverage. Groceries and gas in Deming less than 30 minutes away. Non-Electric and full service sites available.

    City of Rocks State Park Campground

    Not to be missed

    The drive out here is a long stretch of flat barren Chihuahuan desert, and then as you go over a hill in the distance you see literally what looks like a "city of rocks", enormous weathered volcanic rocks sticking out of the ground. The non-electric campsites here are scattered around the rocks, screened from one another, although not from the road by these enormous rocks. The full hookup campsites are more conventional, with gravel pads. Each site has a picnic table and a fire ring with a grill, and a trash can. The visitor center has flush toilets, water and hot showers. Several vault toilets scattered around the campground, and a common potable water source. We were here in the winter time so we appreciated the fact that our site (12- Corona australius) had full morning and afternoon sun. Deming and Silver City groceries and gas, each about 30 miles away. T-Mobile service was fair. There were several sites available to reserve day of. Don't forget to hike to the top of Tabletop Mountain.

    City of Rocks State Park Campground

    Great camping area

    I stayed in two spots. One in the main area on North side in site of Windmill. Second on in the Pegasus area on the far East side. Both were incredible. Vault toilets were very clean. Campsites had tables, garbage cans, and fire rings. Found out that if you sit behind the rocks there was no cell service. But step out and phone work well.

    Rockhound State Park Campground

    Great place for rockhounds

    Great place here and also around here for the rockhound. Clean bathhouse, nice sites, extremely good views. Also went to Deming to Trina's Rock shop for her expertise on where to go rockhunting. Namely just North of Deming to flourite mine area. Be sure to get reservation before coming to Rockhound SP.

    South Gage Dispersed Camping

    South gage blm

    Very quiet. Lovely sunrise and sunset. Downside is there is quite a bit of garbage. Can’t go 10 feet without tin cans or glass at your feet. Got down to 19 degrees

    Gold Gulch Road

    Fine for a one night stop over

    Easy to find and pull in. There is another camper here, pulling an Airstream Basecamp. Relatively close to the road, but there is a nice bush barrier. When you first pull in, follow the dirt road back and you will see the camping area to the left.
