Frequently Asked Questions

What do reviews say about Whites City RV Park?

Whites City RV Park receives mixed feedback. The primary appeal is its strategic location - just 7 miles from Carlsbad Caverns National Park and approximately 30-40 minutes from Guadalupe Mountains National Park. The campground is described as basic with no frills, offering the essentials for a short stay. Many visitors note the convenience factor outweighs the limitations. Common criticisms include tight spacing between sites, limited bathroom facilities needing maintenance, no shade, and higher prices than might be expected for the quality of accommodations.

Are there photos available of Whites City RV Park?

Yes, photos of Whites City RV Park are available. These images typically show the gravel parking lot layout with full hookup sites, the basic picnic tables, and the open arrangement with little to no shade or privacy between spaces. Photos also showcase the campground's proximity to the highway leading to Carlsbad Caverns. For the most current and comprehensive visual information, check The Dyrt's photo gallery or the campground's official website.

What camping options are available in White City?

In White City, the main camping option is Whites City RV Park, offering full hookup sites for RVs. For those who don't require hookups, there are several Bureau of Land Management (BLM) areas between Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains National Parks where boondocking (dispersed camping) is permitted for free. The Whites City area also has limited lodging options. For those visiting primarily for the national parks, considering camping within the parks themselves or looking at additional options in nearby Carlsbad might provide more variety and potentially better value.

What facilities and amenities are available at Whites City RV Park?

Whites City RV Park offers full hookups (water, electric, and sewer) for RVs with back-in sites. The campground has WiFi, picnic tables at each site, and bathroom facilities that include toilet/shower combo rooms. Additional amenities include a laundromat, post office, general store, and gift shop located right next door. There's also a small restaurant across the street. The park reserves about 10 sites for nightly stays, while many others appear to be occupied by longer-term residents.
