Just three short miles from Oliver Lee State Park, our primitive camp doesn't yet have all of the amenities of the state park, but we offer amenities the park doesn't! We offer a 15amp electrical connection, access to clean running water, and access to our 4 acre back pasture. And if you prefer a more luxurious camping experience, we offer a BnB experience in our amazing rooftop tent!! This package includes exclusive use of the entire campsite, as well as one meal for two! We feature unparalleled views of the sunrise over the mountains, as well as convenient access to the park and Lincoln National Forest, White Sands National Monument, and nearby Alamogordo. Firewood available onsite for friendly prices (provided there isn't a current burn ban). And finally, the thing that distinguishes us from most other campsites in this area is your host, Chef Üdø and his yummy, homemade, healthy food options!! Your Camp Host, Chef Üdø, is onsite most days and evenings, and has 30 years' experience in the catering and private chef biz, and as a camp host. He's happy to coordinate hot meals for you and your companions! No more need to go into town to get a pizza or some icky fast food! We will make you a homemade pizza, dry-aged steak, brined chicken, buffalo burger, or lasagna...all in-house. Vegan, vegetarian, kosher, low-sodium, and most other dietary restrictions are no problem! We'll bake you a birthday cake, brownies, pie, or even Crème brûlée! Contact Chef Üdø for more details and please check out our menu at the bottom of the campsite description. We can make just about anything in our sanitary kitchen facilities. We cook with a spirit of Love and inclusion in our kitchen, and it shows! ❤️ Chef Üdø maintains current local food handler's certification, as well as HAACP federal certification.

Rooftop Glam Tent w/ Mountain View

Scenic Views and Savory Meals

Chęf Üdø’s campsite provided a fantastic experience. We've always wanted to try pop-up tent camping without investing in the gear ourselves. The tent's placement was perfect for stargazing and enjoying the mountain views. We brought our dog along with us and had to carry her up the ladder but it was worth it. However, the highlight was the food. After days of fast food and mediocre restaurant meals, Chęf Üdø's offerings were a welcome change. Despite arriving late for dinner, Chęf Üdø assured us that he could make us a delicious breakfast. I opted for the brisket burrito, while my wife chose the brisket omelet. According to her, there was something magical about that burrito; the omelet was just as good. It was some of the best food we've ever had. Chęf Üdø himself has a great personality that radiates in his presentation. If you're seeking a unique camping experience and crave exceptionally flavorful meals, this is the place to be.

Mountain View Campsite

Gorgeous Views and Awesome Food!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time camping on Chef Udo’s land. It was secluded, quiet, great Mountain View’s to watch the sunrise and had great options for made to order amazing food! There was a compostable toilet for our convenience, we had total privacy but Chef Udo also kept us taken care of and was available to answer questions about the area and give suggestions on things to do and see. I’m extremely happy to have found this site and blessed to have gotten to share in this little piece of Heaven. Highly recommend to everyone!
