Excellent stay!The facilities and grounds were so clean and organized, and the staff were all EXTREMELY friendly and very helpful.There are no lakes or jaw dropping scenery to see, but it was a wonderful area with plenty to offer.The lot we were on and the lots we saw were all level, had full hookups and spacious. They serve bbq meals and other food (upon ordering) as well if thats something you want. Rec area was nice. Laundry facilities available. My favorite part was being allowed to have a fire pit! The site was peaceful and all around wonderful.If you like to venture from camp, there is a little like winery/pumpkin patch and brewery nearby, as well as the fabulous Carlsbad Caverns and Sitting Bull Falls for a short drive away.

Really nice sites! Unique picnic tables. We stayed at a family site and had a porch swing near the fire pit! Well-stocked store. Great host at check in! Wish we could have stayed a bit longer!

Beautiful campground. Restrooms & Laundry were very clean and the whole place well maintained. Laundry and baths open 24/7.

Stayed here recently for a week, had a nice, semi shady spot. Close to the pool (which was small but nice), spots were large and had a grassy patio area. Clubhouse with games for the kids, small store, fenced dog park, good cell service, 24 hour laundry.. Staff was super friendly. About 30 min drive to Carlsbad and 1 hr to the Caverns. Great KOA.

Beautiful campground that is very well maintained. Lots of neat activities for kids and families - giant checkers and chess, basketball, rec room, and pool. Restrooms were spotless! The Tent Village was neat, having electricity and lights was handy, and water spigot too. We definitely enjoyed our quick overnighter.

Great staff. Great services! But, the smell was bad. I think the sewage must be located very close by.

Really nice koa. Staff was awesome. Kids had a blast. It had a dishwashing station which was good. It was broken and drained on to your shoes which was bad.

This place is amazing. Lots of room and you have the option to reserve a tent site when you get there. The dog park is huge and the dogs are very friendly. The staff is very friendly as well and the neighbors are nice too. There maybe hot weather out here but it is still nice to come and visit. Cabins have a lot of space for it to hold 6 people. Everything is almost 30 minutes away but when you get into town you get to see a lot of cool things.

We had a great stay at this KOA! There was an abundance of wildlife for you to enjoy without even leaving the campground. The staff was super friendly, and they had hot water! Close proximity to Roswell, which was a really fun place to visit! One thing, the men’s bathroom was closed so my husband had to walk a bit to use the unisex bathroom in the middle of the campground. Past reviews from a month ago mentioned the same thing. If it’s been that long, it’s time to either get that project wrapped up, or find a different contractor.

Great friendly staff, BBQ was good. WE TENT camped, its load starring st 5am bc the ROSWELL are leaving but honestly just bring ear plugs. Showers and bathrooms are CLEAN and the dog park is Large this KOA has shade and life size chessboard and checkers and a teether ball to play. A lovely pond to site and relax. We cant wait to return

Excellent campground, 20 minutes outside Carlsbad. Large well maintained tent sites. We stayed in the tent village. Covered storage, kitchen & eating area. Gravel tent pads. Close to bathrooms & pool. Good store & restaurant on site. Groceries available, ice & firewood. Very friendly and helpful staff. Would stay again. Good place as a base for day trips.

Customer service was perfect, camp is super clean and we were 100% happy!

Not a big fan of this KOA. No refrigerator in the four person cabins, but there was air conditioning. The cabins could use a better cleaning. It was very dry and dusty, which kicked in my long forgotten allergies.We stayed here when the mens shower room was closed for renovation. The males had to use the three unisex shower rooms, which were further away from our cabin and half of the time occupied. The ladies shower room was good according to my wife.The unisex shower rooms were often dirty with a half dozen or so flies. The flies made it hard to eat outside at the picnic tables, as well. Not to mention a litter of cats lived under the unisex shower rooms.Not all RV sites have trees for shade as in the case of our traveling companions. Since it was over 100 degrees each day, we had to create our own shady spots. We do not expect to go here again.

Least customer friendly koa I have ever stayed at. Staff not friendly at check in. Instead was verbally read a laundry list of rules which I had no intention of breaking and that were clearly listed on info sheet. Was invited to call for their bbq dinner service but when I called back to same staff 15 minutes later (and during ordering hours) was told not available. Facilities are nice, however.

Super friendly staff! Betty and Ricky are awesome and super helpful!Great facilities. Large laundry with folding tables and carts.Unfortunately the internet at the sites was not working but Cable TV worked.Very large entertainment area, both indoors and outdoors.Clean bathrooms with hot showers.Easy access from Hwy.Recommend.

Dont eat the food there- terrible. Sites are large and spacious. Bathrooms clean. Lots of amenities but pool closes at 630 which is early for summer

Stayed for one week at the Carlsbad KOA and found it to be a good, solid RV park. Situated just off a highway between Carlsbad and Roswell, it was easy access to places we wanted to go and for movement to our next location. Check in was quick and the camp hosts were professional and courteous. They had a nice store stocked with supplies which is important since the closest store was almost 30 minutes away. The site was gravel and was generally level. They had two fenced dog parks and there were other areas to walk the dogs. The laundry facilities were good but we did not use the bathrooms/showers. One cool extra was the outstanding sunsets.

This park is well maintained , the pool was very nice. I locked us out of our camper and the owners helped us get a locksmith. They checked on us until we got back in. They have great bbq also at this park. Kind people run this KOA!

Great RV Park. Although its about 20 miles from Carlsbad, its a really nice park. Well maintained and pleasant owners. Being away from town really made me and my family feel more secure.

Nice spot to stay if you are traveling to the Carlsbad Caverns. There is plenty of space for your RV, with nice pull throughs. We arrived pretty late from watching the Bat Flight (around 9PM) and they had our paperwork in a box just outside of the office. It had all the info we needed. We needed ice in the morning and they had a store on site with reasonable pricing for it.

Terrible environment for tents. Birds are everywhere and called all day and night none stop. Our tent site was infested with large ants and cockroaches. We were the only tent campers on the site and when we asked if we can switch to another site because of the ants but the employees were very rude. They said they didn’t see a reason for us to change even though we told them about the huge amount of ants. I’ve been to KOAs around the US form Florida to California and this was the worst KOA experience. Never will I go back or recommend this site for tents.Reply:I understand nature is part of your KOA but when I requested to switch tent sites because of the ants it was declined. I wasn’t unhappy with your campsite filled with nature. What raged me was what happened when I asked to be switched to another empty campsite. I was declined even tho the other 5 campsites were empty the whole time I was staying at the KOA. I love ants but what I don’t love is when I ask for a change with a reasonable reason it was received as if I was asking for a upgrade to a cabin for the same price. The ants and cockroaches were literally climbing on my tent was it so hard just to move me 10 feet to the left?

Excellent RV park for families. Lots of activities for the family including: life size chess or checkers, horse shoes, swimming, basketball, play ground and large 24 hr activities room. The camp site was very level, wide and long. It had a grass patch with a picnic table and fire pit. Some sites have a table and chairs, swing, covered areas on a stone floor. There were a lot of people walking around and using all the facilities. It is far off the highway so its very quite. Its about half way between Carlsbad and Artesia.

Very friendly. Nice & clean.. great game area for kids, pool, s’more nights, dog park that is completely enclosed & a playground.We had a nice guy that even drove us on golf cart to our spot 😃

The park itself was nice and well kept. The pool was closed I am sure due to Covid. My only complaint was when I was doing laundry and someone working on the men’s restroom remodel cut a waterline. They held my cloths hostage for over 2 hours since I could not open the front loaders in mid cycle. They did have to restart the wash from the beginning and they did pay for the wash. It just made for a very long night.

Tent sites are all dirt/mud— some insects present. Our site was fairly clear. Minor tree cover. Bathrooms are a decent walk away and were NOT clean— making slippers a must have for showers and disinfectant wipes highly advisable. Also— the birds can be quite loud throughout the night if you are sensitive to it. Altogether makes for an overpriced campground but adequate given the high volume of visitors to nearby Carlsbad Cavern National Park.

Very nice place. Its well maintained & peaceful. The RV spaces are large and each space has its own little yard with drass & a shade tree. Other parks in the area are all built with the sole purpose to make $$, just a dirt lot with no upgrades and spaces crammed together. And changing top dollar rates. So the KOA is by far the best in the area

Very open and spacious lots. Great K9 area as well. Wonderful staff.

This is a super nice place to stay and the sites are big and easy to get into. Close to shops and others, plus you can order BBQ they deliver to your site on certain days. We will definitely stay here again :)

Great place! So many amenities. Super clean

Nicest KOA we’ve stayed at for a while. Beautiful area, quiet, and wonderful addition with the covered porches on some sights. We actually tried to stay longer but they were full. We will be back’

This was one of my favorite KOAs to date. The sites are nice big and wide all hookups are great the staff was very friendly. We were able to hit the caverns and Sitting bull all in the same day. The BBQ is smoked on site and they will deliver to your site which makes it even better. I would highly recommend.

We stayed here for 3 nights in a RV. The first night we got there we ordered their BBQ. It was all delicious. The brisket, smoked turkey, sausage and pork were loved by my family. They deliver to your RV and it was so nice to be able to set up and not worry about dinner after traveling all day. We did the Carlsbad Caverns and Sitting Bull Falls on one day and then Guadalupe Mountains National Park on day 2.. You had to drive about an hour out each day, but we didn’t mind because we like seeing different areas. The campground is very clean and the staff is so polite. We will be coming back here!

People are friendly and the nights are quiet. They have arranged all their excellent sites in such a way that the evening sun shines on the backside of your camper. Nice planning!

The tent site was great, but the food we ordered was overpriced (and wasnt the greatest). The reason I gave this KOA 5 stars was because of the staff. They were kind, cheery, friendly, and very helpful. They gave us info about the area and events going on, and even talked with us for a bit as though we were old friends. I would love to stay here again.

Very nice campground with good amenities. Only 2 negatives: not close to attractions ( Carlsbad Caverns is 45 minutes away) and due to construction trash dumpsters are hard to locate).

Nope! Never again! We had a neighbor setting up their tent at 2.30 in the middle of the night!!! Banging and flashing lights and waking everybody up. When we went to politely complain, we were threatened and addressed with cussing. The camping place is fairly good, but they shouldnt allow people setting up in the middle of the night, especially in a place that most people just get some rest before they continue with their roadtrip.Needless to say that we packed up and left. Thankfully, they refunded our money for the 2nd nights stay.

This was the prettiest RV park!! Spacious, welcoming, a swing, wrought iron looking outside furniture, and gas grill provided!!!! Sooooo nice ❤

Bad: No WiFi working anywhere!Good: very clean, lots of wide open spaces, store, propane refill.

Nature shows you incredible moments. enjoy them this is a good place

We loved our stay here, we had a patio spot with swing & fire pit. It was clean, level & spacious. They have several amenities here with different ways to enjoy them; cabins, tent & RV spaces. The staff is friendly & will even bring fresh smoked BBQ to your RV upon order. This a great place to stay!

The staff was wonderful. Lots of activities for kids including a really neat playground. The campsite is set up for to accommodate tent camping to large motorhomes and everything in between. Great place all around. We all start to meet the owners, and they were extremely nice.

Lake Brantley. Enjoyed it but some what dirty. Trash everywhere that visitors leave behind

Very nice campground! Very clean, employees are pleasant, friendly and pleasant. Store is well stocked. Would recommend!!!

Staff very friendly! Sites clean and well kept. Only con..wish there was more shade!

Nothing special, a place to stay over night. They have basic attractions ie, playground, life size chess and checkers. I wouldnt stay more than a night or two.

The nicest RV park in Carlsbad by far. Great views of the area and quiet. One complaint is the lack of maintenance, grass is invading the sites, firepits falling apart, just needs some TLC.

Stayed two nights while visiting the Caverns and surrounding area. Nice large pull thrus, friendly office staff, great brisket dinner brought to our site (order ahead as they have time slots) and two fenced in dog parks side by side, which is always my favorite as my pooch likes his own space. The 5th star was taken away by the escort to our site as his attitude was sour, he must have been asked to work on his day off!?!

Little to no complaints here— the mens bathroom being closed was a minor inconvenience but not enough of one for me to not return to this KOA. However, there was one male staff member that made one of the females in our party quite uncomfortable on multiple occasions. I didn’t get his name, but his comments, coupled with his drinking and driving, made us wary of his presence.

Its a KOA in the middle of the desert. Bathrooms were clean and well maintained. The laundry had plenty of washers and dryers. There are a few shade trees. Sites are parallel, but reasonably spaced.Not much privacy though. Wifi is weak but ok for email. One neighbor was playing tunes a bit loudly. We tried to get the staff to ask them turn it down, but nothing appeared to happen. There seem to be a number of longtime campers here.

Its a very nice koa the staff however is not helpful and is very rude. I had a problem with the cable and so did my neighbor they said it was our equipment but when i left that Park and went to another KOA 357 miles away it worked just fine so I called them just to be nice and let them know what happened and the lady told me i was full of it and hung up. For the money that KOA charges you would think they would be nice.

Great spot ! I was pleased that it was quiet after 10 compared to other campgrounds we have been to .

Very nice RV park. The campground workers are extremely friendly. On-site Barbeque and they will deliver to your site!

We had a wonderful time. The place was clean, super easy to pull into and hook up. The owners running the store super nice. The only problem is the flies. Absolutely just the time of year. Nothing to do with the campground. Id stay again in a heartbeat.

Nice RV PARK, good bar-b-que on site delivered by golf cart. Long drive to Carlsbad Caverns. Some folks have reported a unpleasant smell from the local drilling sites but we did not experience this.

Super clean! Great staff

Nice clean park. Staff was very freindly and accommodating. We had to extend our stay due to strong winds. They have a kitchen and deliver BBQ meals to your RV upon request. Great turkey and brisket dinners! Will stay there again gor sure!

I think its over priced. The pool was freezing cold. I went to use the mens room and it had a sign on the door that said closed from 1pm to 3 pm for cleaning. I will say when you first get here they guide you to your site.

Nice people...location ok... wifi totally sucks so if you work from the road get your own wifi and dont rely on this wifi

The awesomest camp experience ever! Tent village is totally worth it! Also if you call in early you can get delicious bbq delivered to you! Almost had an issue with the bbq though because even though we called in at 10 am they almost sold our portion because we hadnt paid or arrived yet. Also the bathroom and shower accommodations are amazing. Highly recommend. This is also dependent on who your neighbors are. Ours were great though. Lighting, storage box, water, grill and fire ring. The cabins seemed spaced pretty far and kids amenities seemed good even though we didnt travel with kids.

Beautiful breathtaking scenery and lots of activities to do Definitely Recommend

I always avoided KOAs, due to road noise, until NOW.KOAs have been known for noisy road noise, similar to rest areas. Not this one. The site was peaceful and tranquil.Con: It is a 45 minute drive to the Carlsbad Caverns.Pros: Great Camp Host Team, clean camp, friendly people, nice desert mountain backdrop. Relatively close to the Living Desert Park and Sitting Bull Falls. Peaceful.The Camp Hosts were Great!We had the great experience of meeting Dorothy, Allen, and Al. Great people and Great hosts. They were Very helpful with recommendations for the best places to go, and to get most out of it.Got great updates on local wildlife and unique flora. These are experienced campers who help others get the most out of their camping experience.The guys are great at keeping the peace, from critters and yahoos that want to break the rules in speeding. Speed limit is 9.8 mph.They have a nice restaurant. They serve good food at reasonable prices, and deliver it to your campsite.Got some great RV tips and recommendations.We made some great Friends and will be staying here again when visitng Carlsbad Caverns or passing through.Tim & Emeliza H

Great KOA. Let me camp in the truck bed in an RV slot as I reserved since pictures did not clarify if could pull close enough to tent site. Allowed our small privacy tent for changing and camp toilet since bathrooms were closed. Beautiful sunsets visible. Lots of birds. Near enough the Caverns to not be too bad (about an hour). Near a state park with a lake.

Probably the best bath/shower houses we’ve seen in our 2 years of traveling. Nice laundry facilities, level spots, friendly staff, neat park area for the kids. Fairly convenient to Carlsbad Caverns and Roswell, NM.

Very nice! Clean, friendly, and helpful! Loved our stay there!

Clean campground. Not very close to the Carlsbad caverns but it was close enough. The staff were accommodating and welcoming. We only stayed a night but it was a nice quiet campground to relax for the evening.

Amazing staff. Super friendly. We pulled in on a cold evening and while un-hitching the staff member Doc, offered to take and fill up our propane just in case for the cold night. Puts a moms mind at ease. Clean and offers a nice playground for kids. Pool was closed with it being winter.Only bummer is it in the middle of a field so not much around it but that might be what you are going for! Great pit stop for us and only 40mins from Carlsbad Caverns.

I just go there for propane bottle refill. They always take care of me. Friendly people.

Nice clean park. Will stay here again.

Nice and clean and friendly people

It is a great place to stay. Restrooms are clean. Camping spots are beautiful.

This is an awesome place nice and quiet theres plenty of space for your RV they even have grass for your front yard!! There is nice and clean restrooms and even showers. If I had an RV and nothing else to do Id probably go check out this place.

Big park and one shared bathroom with long lines

Nice gravel/level pull thru spots. Laundry facilities are spotless and have new commercial machines.

Very good we stay there often

Well worth our stay. Bring bed linen soap & etc..

Nice place sites are huge! Wonderful place to rest after the Caverns or just to relax

The facilities and staff were extremely nice. Playground was great, great location - we visited the carlsbad caverns, sitting bull falls in lincoln national forest, and guadalupe mountains. The smoked BBQ is great too!! Really enjoyed our stay.

Staff was very friendly, place was pretty quiet.

Awsome views

Usual RV park. Spaces close and amenities closed because of COVID. Good over night stop.

Great place. I loved KOAs across the country as soon as I saw the places. 10/10.

Needs a little TLC. Staff was a bit overzealous about where my car tires were... even when I was escorted to the site and no one said anything at the time. There was dog poo everywhere (no one enforces that rule). The dog playground is full is stickers and burrs that stick and poke or dogs feet. There should be garbage receptacles on the back side of the campground as long as they have campers back there.

Wonderful place to stop over night. Very friendly staff, I really enjoyed chatting with Doc in the morning before leaving.

Nice and quiet!!! Level lots, nice store, nice people.

Staff is excellent, they have a new landscapeer, hes up early and is making it green again, tent areas are being modified, and construction for new premium park lots, look very different.

We did not get to experience the whole KOA because of COVID 19, the bathrooms and showers were closed. However the tent circle units were very nice and clean. Overall a very nice campsite. There were a few tarantulas, we did not know they were so common for the area. We also saw a black widow in a near by campsite...just a warning for any arachnophobes.

Staff was very polite and helpful. Restrooms and showers were huge and sparkling clean. They have a large air conditioned rec-room. This camp is dog friendly and kid friendly. Small 5 ft deep pool was very clean. Plentiful washers and dryers. Large camp spots. Abundant and amazing desert wildlife. Plan accordingly as it is about 45 minutes to Carlsbad. Then another 30 to 45 minutes to the Caverns.

Area was nice, however the patios are covered and it should be the tent area where you sleep, especially in the desert! Bathrooms are clean and big. Laundry room is also

Great experience at this KOA. It was our first time at a KOA (new campers), and it set the bar high. Level camp sites, and the on site maintenance person was available after hours for an issue we thought we had (turned out to be our equipment). Site are specious and the facilities were very clean and well kept.We visited in early April and look forward to returning to this KOA on future trips through New Mexico.

Ignoring the standard Covid closures (pool, conference room, etc) this KOA was magnificent. They serve great bbq and deliver it to your site, thereTheres tons of wildlife wandering around, and plenty of trails for the avid hiker. The wifi was quite good, they were friendly, and the sites are spacious.Definitely will be back!

Great park to stay at. Pool is nice and clean and in a place away from the busy road. Park is beautifully laid out with a lot of space in between sites. Staff was friendly as always with KOA’s. They even deliver dinner from a varietal menu right to your RV! Would definitely return.

“Storm of the Century” here with snow, closed roads and temps in the teens the last couple of nights. Advertised on KOA website that they have propane. Not selling any because KOA had failed to get their propane tank inspection. VERY POOR on their part. Sure hope everyone in their RVs & campers stayed warm!

Good place

Very nice & clean spot to hang out. Pool was clean, the people at front desk were very friendly. LOVED that they escorted us to our spot. Lots to do there. We will definitely go back

Nice quiet

Great place very clean

Park had large, level spots well suited for big rigs. All in our group thought the park was well maintained and friendly. Although out town and away from the caverns this park was worth the drive.

Not up to KOA standards. The park was empty due to Covid19 and all the site lots were overgrown. You would think that they would be able to maintain it now since nobody is here. When we checked in they had 4 people in the office and not one of them was actually out doing any work we actually had to wait for someone to let their dogs out before we could even register our reservation. I feel thats a very poor service for a KOA . They did not even practise social distancing or wearing of any masks. They even parked our trailer right next to another person when the whole campground was empty.

This RV Park is clean and nice. The bathrooms are clean and spacious. Large areas for kids to play. However, the man that checked us in was very rude and unwelcoming. We took our RV out for the day, and on our way back in the man came up to our RV and scolded us very rudely, stating that we were speeding through the site the day before (which was 100% NOT TRUE). We have never felt more unwelcome before. We were the only group with children there and it was obvious that he does not like kids.Overall, this pricey KOA is adequate, as long as you don’t mind feeling unwelcome.

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Large, very nice. Excellent playground for kids. Excellent dog park. Wonderful staff!
