San Jon Village Campground

We were looking for a quick overnight as we were crossing New Mexico and this fit the bill perfectly. Finding it was easy, there's a sign out front that says "San Jon Park / Free Overnight Parking". The spot was long and level and easy in/out access in our 39' motorhome pulling a Chevy Colorado. The picnic tables had shade coverings... more

Street signs leading here don’t exist, once you arrive, it looks like it has been abandoned for at least a couple years. Bathrooms are closed and pavilions are left broken

Nice little free park for a quick overnight. Small park but plenty of room for several campers. Each with their own covered picnic table. What a surprise to find free overnight camping. There was a swing set and a dumpster, there were also bathrooms but they were locked for the winter. We did find a few of the goat head spurs on us als... more

This park is only about a mile off of i-40. It's a nice quiet park with space for six or eight RVs. There are no amenities at all. It's a great place to watch the sunset.
