Best Dispersed Camping near Organ, NM

First off this is a parking lot but you are able to camp here for free. There were trailers, RVs and even car camping in this BLM area. There are other spots along the way such as Sierra Vista Trailhead and Baylor Canyon Road as well as multiple pullouts along the Dripping Springs Road.

You're basically at the foot of the Organ Mountains and the view is awesome, even the city lights in the distance were nice. 

There are no amenities here. Cell reception good with AT&T and Verizon.

Nice place to stay if you plan on hiking the Organ Mountains or heading the next 40 miles to White Sands National Monument.

A very nice spot to stop on a road trip. There are no amenities here, and surprisingly there was no trash at all. There is a gravel road off the highway that leads into the campground. There is a lot of open space for you to pick and just set up camp. Here I used a tent. Theres no need for a permit or checking in. A state trooper drove in in the morning for something but didn’t stop to interact with anyone. There was just me and two other van campers. The gate seems to be open all year round. Can be found as Lake Holloman on Google. In the morning I woke up to fighter jets flying from the Air Force base that is near by. A beautiful sight to wake up to. Would stop here again

Coming in off of Dripping Springs Rd, you pass a large flat parking area with small sites you can pull off into, and this area is easy for any rig to access. But if you keep going all the way to the trail head and turn left, you can access more dispersed and remote camp sites just around the bend. You will need a high clearance 4x4 to get to these sites, or you can park in one of the sites in the beginning lot and hike in.  There are several large flat spots that are great for camping.  There are small rock fire rings and hiking trails throughout.  Good Verizon and AT&T reception.

First off, views of the mountains are great! The sites are off a single dirt road with pull offs for the sites. There are about 10 or 12 sites as you follow the road. More if your neighbors are friendly. You shouldn't a need 4x4 unless it rains, but some there are some larger rocks that might scrape if you don't have a high clearance. You could potentially maneuver around them.

I saw some trailers up the road, however it does get narrow at points, so a large RV might have some issues. I'd say these site are more tent, car, and campervan friendly.

There are no services, pack in pack out. Verizon service was good.

Got here late last night driving from Albuquerque and since it's essentially just all dirt/shrub, you're able to park wherever you can (just don't block the worn in dirt roads obviously). Had about 30 other RVs, campervans, 5th wheels, tents and cars parked all around. Any type of camper is welcome and their space respected. Quiet, everyone was respectful of one another. Mostly families with young children and retirees. Woke up to a beautiful lake. A bit windy though, for anyone thinking of tent camping or has a tall vehicle.
