An awesome site extremely close to Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo, and White Sands. It was a great combination of remote and private while still being a short drive to any destination. The site provided a picnic tabe, fire barrel, hammock rack and portable toilet. There were excellent views of the sunset, sunrise and night sky. I highly recommend it and will be returning on future trips.

We loved our time at Reeve's place! The space is very homey, nestled in the trees, and although it was nearly full we felt like our site was private. The restrooms were spotless and each has a very nice shower. Midtown Mountain is located close to several restaurants, a grocery store, and hiking trails are easily accessible. Reeve was full of information about the area. We absolutely will be back if we return to Ruidoso. Thanks for a great stay!

Weekend Trip to Tularosa Vineyards & Winery

Site was clean and level. Vineyard was nice, wine was excellent. The owners, both old and new, were welcoming and friendly. Patio was a great place to hang out and meet people.

Weekend Trip to Southern Rockies Camp & Retreat

We had a lovely stay on the property! The owners were amazing and waited up for us. We did get lost. GPS took us on a different route so whatever you do… follow the directions the host sends you and type the address directly into the gps. And we are pretty experienced off roaders and adventurers so we thought eeeeeeeh we will be fine after dark. We got there but if you can get there before dark I highly recommend it! We can’t wait to go back and spend more time on the property! Thank you!!!

Weekend Trip to Nogal Canyon RV Spot

We had a great time at this site! Very big and private! Great if you have a dog that likes to run around. It was also great having electric hook ups.

1 night at Camp Rio

This hipcamp was super easy. Lots of space, there weren’t that many people there so it felt really private. The showers/bathrooms were great. We had a lovely night here

Weekend Trip to Bonito Hollow RV Park and Campground

Great place to camp.. Very clean, quiet, and so cute. The dog run was a great amenity. The bathrooms were clean. So many places to see right on-site. Can’t wait to go back!
