Two last nights we got here all the way from Carlsbad Canyon at 9 pm ,park closes at 10 pm. It was a long drive to get there and when son showed us out in the lake , what it looked like then we shaked heads and said are You sure ? It had rained a lot before we got there and the lake was floating over the road by the dam drive over,it was rather scary .
Lots of trails to walk in area, but because of this massive rain its not possible to walk over by the dam,just to be aware if it.
We got lots of sun next day and had a good time walking around at the campground, we took a tour into town ,nice little town to walk around in some intersting stores there.
We saw lots of birds and turtels in the lake.
We had a lakeview from the oppsite of the road.
