A great stay at this little cabin. Our third time staying at Karen's place. Her communication is excellent and the cabin has all the little amenities needed. We love having the fenced in backyard for our 2 small dogs. Location is also great being walkable to shops and restaurants. Saw lots of elk this visit meandering through the neighborhood. Great place.

Nice sites, not so nice facilities

Oliver Lee Memorial State Park Campground
The camp sites were super nice, but the facilities were underwhelming. The showers in the women’s room were awful, one didn’t work at all and the other was almost rusted shut and just barely trickled. Then for the men’s room there was no soap, let alone a soap dispenser, you could tell where it once was but it needs to be replaced. Overall nice sites but the facilities were very underwhelming.

Stayed at Oliver Lee on a photo scouting mission in February this year, and we loved staying here! The sun shelters at most tent sites were super helpful against the windy nights, and the facilities were kept clean and quite. Highly recommend. And we'll be back.

Nice park.

The best place to hang out and explore the Tularosa Basin! 44 campsites include 7 that are reservable. 18 sites have water and electric hook ups, the rest are dry sites. The campground has showers in the middle easy to get to from all sites. Some sites have shelters. The visitor center has a nice small museum with info about the area. The park has a nice nature trail and access to the Dog Canyon Trail which rises up 3,100 feet in 5.5 miles. Supplies are available in Alamogordo 12 miles away.
