"Great campground but with limitations. "

Coming from 87, the West of 300, this is your first chance at a camping spot. It is a few miles from the Mogollon Rim, so no views. The campground is a loop type with at least one pull-through (#5) site. It is among tall trees in a valley, so no... Read more

"Dispersed camping right on the Rim"

I pushed on the gravel road for about 11 miles and found a free spot right on the rim. There were 3 sites but only the middle one had some tree coverage. And man, do you need it! The wind for 3 days straight was blowing at 20 mph with gusts way... Read more

"Easy access. Great location."

This must have been a RV park a while back. There is a paved loop road, serving concrete pads with fire rings. Plenty of space between sites. It's almost luxurious for BLM "boondocking". I went on a 3 miles dirt road with my cargo e-bike, going up... Read more

"Very nice with a few challenges."

End of October 2021. Not too many folks around. This is free BLM land and all the RVs parks close to town are super busy. There are a few trees and shrubs here. While there are a few somehow visible paths, you kind of make your own as you try to... Read more

"Amazing views on the highest mountains and nice lakes"

I took the very first path on the right after the first corner up the paved road. I found a spot, behind a tree but still with a great view. There are only about 5-6 places, for Van's or tent camping as it is very tight. But if you keep going up,... Read more

"Lovely location"

Everything with the first mile seemed occupied. I think if I had kept going up I would have had more choices. But I found a sweet spot, separated to my neighbors ,in a tent, by a few trees and I couldn't see anyone. But the wild flowers, the... Read more

"Very cute and FREE"

The canyon campground is closed for now. But the Sunrise one is open for business. Paved road and sites. Most are smaller for cars or short RV like mine at 18ft. Nice bathroom, flush toilet and a small utility sink in a separate room. I had some... Read more

"Very pleasant"

Easy drive on a county road with beautiful scenery around. Tons of wild flowers, healthy pine trees. Turn off the main road and you are going up on a paved road. About 2 miles. Turns into a dirt road, with some potholes and a few rocks. But very... Read more

"Magical."

Drove by earlier in the way to Albuquerque. Once I realized there were nothing close to town, I drove back to this place. It was pouring rain with thunder and lightning. Just sweet. Very short dirt road to campground with one short steep wash to... Read more

"Great experience."

It was raining and drizzling. Very fresh. Do not settle into the first loop (which is just fine). There were maybe 10 cars there. The second loop had no one and I found a great spot. Pads are paved but short. A long RV or trailer might be a... Read more
