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.
