We enjoyed talking with Ray. His space was very clean and had everything we needed to be comfortable. It was very peaceful and quiet! And the pecan orchard was beautiful!

Great spot, really private. I did hear loud sounds throughout the night and morning from an adjacent property. Keep in mind, it's a working farm. My dogs loved running the fence with the owners' dog!

Easy to get to with ample space to maneuver our 27' class A and tow vehicle to our site one. Given the fact that site 2 was vacant we were able to drive thru that site to site 1. However, there is ample space to get to either site even if one is occupied.
Ray and Lucille were wonderful hosts and very accommodating. We have a young dog who is new to us and still in training. Their dogs and ours were frequently "talking" to one another due to the proximity of their fenced private area and site 1. After site 2 was vacated by an over nighters rv we switched to site 2 which was a better fit for all.
The location of Pecan Grove was perfect for our week-long getaway. Peaceful, relaxing, cool temps, days trips to: Old Mesilla, Hatch, White Sands NP, Alamogordo, Organ Mtns.
We would stay at Ray and Lucille's anytime again! No hesitations.

Very nice spot and plenty of space. Hookups were very easy to access with lighting available right above the hookups that we could control. Host was there when we arrived and assisted us with backing in and was readily available if we had any questions. Very nice site and very quiet location. Would definitely stay again in the future.

The sites are gorgeous! Both very flat and plenty of space to park your rig. Very private from the main property and each other. And the pecan orchard is absolutely lovely. Lots of great bird sightings too!

Ray’s Pecan Orchard site was amazing! So clean and tight! Off the beaten path. Right by their house, but private at the same time. Safe! Enjoyable. Peaceful. Quiet. Electric water and sewer. Just right. I was blessed. Thank you Ray.

Very private, peaceful spot to spend the night.
Our GPS tried to route us down a dirt road to get to the spot so don’t follow that. The address is marked clearly off the main road.

Such easy access and the surroundings were much beyond what we had hoped for. We were fortunate enough to have a thunderstorm roll through and it really cooled things off, plus the sound of rain is always a plus in our book.

The site was clean, well maintained, and quiet. There was a large orchard to walk through. We were the only campers and enjoyed our solitude. Ray was helpful and charming.

The perfect place to spend a night or two weeks. Ray & Lucille are absolutely lovely and most gracious. Enjoyed our stay and recommend this quiet, peaceful spot, to anyone that wants to be away from the “typical” rv park. Loved it so much we are going back for 3 nights next week!

It’s a nice peaceful spot just far enough away from
I-10 but not too far. You get a great view of El Paso at night from Sally’s property.
