This was the 1st time I've ever stayed at a KOA. First time using hookups.

I was anticipating being sandwiched between monster RVs and listening to generators all night.

But, it wasn't that bad. We lucked out with a spot at the end of a row, which helped a bunch. Yes, there were monster RVs everywhere, but we actually had a decent amount of space. The bathrooms and showers were clean and very welcome after 6 days on the road.

The BBQ food that they serve was pretty decent as well.

Not my style of camping, but when you need to wash up, its not a bad option. Location near Carlsbad Caverns was excellent as well. There are closer RV parks, but none that I wanted to stay at.

Also note: It was a very windy campsite. Don't count on having a fire.

Stayed here in march 2021. Sites are nice with flat parking, fire pits, picnic tables. Some have bear boxes as well. Bathrooms have plumbing, but no hot water. You can hike down to the trails or drive to the visitors center.

Overall a great spot to stay for a few nights. It's a little expensive, but totally worth it.
