Ponil Campground

We spent 6 nights in this park. This is an old campground. We were visiting a friend in the area so we we spent most days away from the campground and only spent evenings in our motorhome. They do offer a laundry area plus public restrooms which we did not use. Our pull thru site was squeezed in between two trees. To hook up our water we had to dig out some dirt just to access the faucet. They do offer Dish hookup for $10 a week, but we did not use that. Also, if you use a credit card there is a 3% charge on your bill. That is not listed on the website. The owner did add a sign to her door during the week about the 3% charge. If you make your reservation online there is also a $27.00 platform fee. We will not be staying here again.

The only plus side to the site is that it is very quiet at night. No road noise at all. The campground has a for sale sign so maybe the next owner will make more improvements...

They do have wifi which did work most of the time. If you are a Scout be sure to visit Philmont Scout Ranch and the National Scouting Museum in Cimarron.
