We needed a night to get to our reserved time to see Carlsbad Caverns in the morning next day and called them up and got a spot for the RV 28 foot.

It was a great open space

We had tought we were going to eat at the restaurant/cafe on other side of street for the evening, but that was closed because they were out of staff.

So BBQ it was then ,which was fine , had a firepit and a grill .

Two laundry rooms ,so got some washing done after been dry camping for five days it was about time. Full hookups

Free wifi

It was a gift store there and one could get to buy some food in the store too,but not to many choices.

Bathroom/shower concrete floor , but it was clean and had lots of hot water.

Best part it was just at the entrance to get to the caverns and just drow up hill 4 miles.

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.

First stop on this tour from Dallas TX to New Mexico and back

I had choosen this place out of location ,it has a walmart in walking distance.

We got delayed from start of pickup our RV and got here a lot later then we had intended, so I wrote the owner a message and she answered rapid how to find it and where to find our paperwork. 

We found the spot and got settled and went into bathrooms that was the most clean bathroom I have ever seen in a campground.

Slept a good night sleep and had some things we needed to fix on the RV rental and here the owner is very happy and good to help out and had the parts we needed.

And then we was off again

Tour with my husband and adult son in march 2024

Stayed at 082 at the Mesquite.

Bathrooms they had , a little cold water.

We got there at a super hot day , and decied to do walk before park the RV 28 foot to our spot. Since it was later in day and I wanted to go to the lighthouse.

Great to walk in trail s there ,bring lot s of water and some snack. 

walked for hours then back to the RV and down to the campground 

Very open spot with view of the mountains around , can see the other campers too.

had this overbuild patio to sit under if wanted.

Funny thing tought it was very hot the day we arravied ,the next morning I dressed up in my normal camping shorts and sandals and hoodie early in the morning , the temperatures was dropped a lot true the night and i got out of the RV with my coffee in my hand and tought I was going to sit outside in my chair and enjoy it . I backed inside rapid and got leggings and boots on ,then I could enjoy the view of the sun raise.

We needed a spot and found it by search on internet leaving Tallulah Gorge afternoon.

Got here around 6 pm after a shopping round since we had some issues with the power in our van we needed a extended cord to run our coffee mashine. 

Great spot ,just for the night and near the rafting area and check in for that early next morning.

We washed some clothing and used the bathrooms and ate in the Van and drove next morning to the rafting area. Slept good.

Campground looked rather new set up and Bathouse is new. And the laundry mashines is so good to have at any place.

Our last two nights we stayed at the McKinney Campground in Atlanta , it was perfect for the travel back to Atlanta to deliver back the rental Van on our last day. 

We got there early afternoon from Nashville and weather was great and warm. Since we had both chill and snow over the smoky mountains and lots of rain in Nashville ,we loved this place.

We had a spot right out to the water , it was big enough for us and we could see and say hello to those around us,but did not feel tight at all.

We had electrical and water hookup

The bathhouse it was two toilets and shower ,they were big ,but had to time it when going into it otherwise wait to get in there.

We enjoyed the BBQ grill and the fire pit and the view of the water ,The girls swum in the lake

My two girls 18 and 20 had rented a van from Atlanta and this was our first stop , we had rented space 28 ,with hookup for water and electric. 

Great spot ,stone bench and table ,fire pit , and grill ,the grill was a big hole in so a bit difficult to BBQ on it .

We got there around 3 pm , and went for a walk to check out the area first that day .

Nice area and trail. Toilet and shower is opposite in bathhouse,my oldest daughter tought it was dirty and old. It was her first trip in a van and camplife. We slept very well the first night.

Next morning we got up and run walked to get a permit to walk the stairs down to Tallulah gorge and to walk over, we got the permit and walked back to get breakfast ,and after that we walked all the stairs down. I had had a incindent with my foot two weeks before leaving and coming down to the falls , I got scared looking at the others walking over the rocky stones in the water and fall in . And I decied that for me that was probably not the good way to start the camping life and only driver to walk over there. Told the girls to go without me, they went out in the middel of there ,but think they felt sorry for their mum not be able to join so they came back and we went up again.

Its heavy to go up the stairs again,but its very beautiful . When we got up we felt we had seen what s to see there and since we had next day was rafting in Nanthala river early morning ,we decied maybe it was a good idea to leave the campground and find another spot nearer to that . That turned out to be a good idea, the traffic to get there took longer and would have been hopless the next day.

So dump statition is on way out ,first time for the girls and me to deal with this alone,we managed.
