Percha Dam State Park, Arrey, New Mexico

This lesser known (and less crowded) state park is just south of the more popular Caballo Lake and Elephant Butte state parks. Although I haven’t been to the other two I think they are booked more so harder to get reservations. Just from looking at pictures, it seems like Percha Dam has more trees and...

Alamagordo White Sands KOA, Alamagordo, New Mexico

This KOA Journey is just a few miles from our newest National park, White Sands. Their website states they are also a base camp for exploring New Mexico Museum of Space History and Three Rivers Petroglyph Site, among other attractions. The only other sightseeing I did was Pistachio Land, a gift and souvenir shop and...

Enchanted Trails RV Park, Albuquerque, NM

This RV park was recommended to me by neighbors where I live. I've stayed at the Casino Resort RV Park about 10 miles west three times but I knew I would want to be as close to home as possible my last day of driving. To be fair, I didn't really get to explore all...

Tucumcari KOA Journey, Tucumcari, NM

Oasis State Park, Portales, NM

Traveler’s World Campground, Clovis, NM

Traveler’s World appears to be a former KOA campground.  The owner tells me that his in-laws purchased it and completely cleaned it up to make it the best campground in Clovis (accordingly to yearly votes).  We left our previous place after one night because there wasn’t any place to walk the dogs and this place...

Chupadera Mountain View RV Park, San Antonio, New Mexico

There use to be an RV park listed in this vicinity called Bosque Birdwatchers RV Park. It appears that one is no longer here but this new one has opened recently and serves the same clientele. This is just on the edge of the Bosque Del Apache National Wildlife Refuge. The very personable owners told...
