We stayed there last August and LOVED it. Our new favorite campground in New Mexico. The Pecos Wilderness is amazing hiking and backpacking. Doesn't get any better.

We stayed there last August and LOVED it. Our new favorite campground in New Mexico. The Pecos Wilderness is amazing hiking and backpacking. Doesn't get any better.
Price is $10 per night, unless you have Naional Park Access pass, then it is $5.
Only pit toilets, no cell service at all... which was fine with us.
The road to get up there is narrow in spots and difficult for a long trailer, but we saw lots of them up there at campground so it is possible, just be aware.
We arrived on a Thursday as we were concerned about getting a spot on weekend but had no problems. Lots of people pulling out each morning, even on Saturday. Every site filled up by mid-afternoon so keep that in mind. You cannot get a site late in day any day of week. This is the best campground in Pecos area.

The road to get here was very narrow and twisty, but people were very patient. The site has options for sun and shade with good hiking all around. The camp host runs a tight ship and even locks the gate at night so I doubt thieves will be a problem with him on the job. For a little elevation to cool down, this is a terrific site.

I've stayed here numerous times. While it's clean and well-maintained, it is also a target for local thieves. In fact, the USFS warns about this. There is fishing nearby and hiking into the wilderness is convenient.
