    I made reservations 6 months prior to arrival. Reservation said 1:00 pm check in for Spot D05. I arrived at 1:05 and was told check-in was at 1:30...website still says 1. I was told my site was ready, but was moved to Site M1...probably the worst site in the park. Power box next to rig that hums constantly, and located next to the main road. No shade or grass anywhere. Don't plan on sleeping late. Permanent residents start driving by at 0400, then a constant flow of traffic. Front desk personnel will give you bad information about the Caverns. The pool is small, enclosed, and swamped with children. The dog parks are pathetic, but do provide poopies bags. I had an Amazon order delivered, advised via after hours phone call, the order was made for D05. I asked for a return phone call to acknowledge this...not received. I went to the office. Find a different place to stay to visit the Caverns. Not a restful stay.

    Very bare bones and dusty. We did not set out any of our chairs or ground mats. Our friends didn't either. The staff were very nice and escorted us to our spot.

    Our set up at site #1.

    About 30 mins from the Carlsbad Caverns visitor center, but 15+ of those minutes are driving through the national park so it feels pretty close. The nightly rates for hookup sites are great, especially with the amenities. We loved picking a movie for the night from the free rental DVD rack and they'll pop you popcorn ($5) too! Showers and bathrooms are new and very clean, laundry room is clean and organized. Indoor pool is very old looking but the water seemed clean and was nice for a dip when it was so hot outside. The park is much nicer than it looks from the outside. There are lots of trees and shaded spots on the left side, if you have a larger rig (30'+) you might be on the right side where there isn't much vegetation. There are a bunch of small fully fenced dog parks for pups to wander around at every corner. Very quiet, friendly staff, and felt safe the whole stay.

    Wanted to like this place because the staff was super accomodating and nice and they have some grass sites. Am still unsure as to why they get good reviews unless it is from people that do not use the facilities. You get bamboozled by the clean check-in, store & laundry, and then you see the rest of the place. This place is way overpriced for the amenities which need serious updating. - Their"sparkling clean" showers/restrooms were so gross and trough style so you would be showering in someone else's grime even with flip flops. - The cable was spotty and kept going in and out from clear to pixelated most of the time. - Couldn't play horseshoes because they were missing 2 horseshoes. - Couldn't play cornhole because they were missing a beanbag. - The laundry room was super clean, but it was $7 ($3.50 each) to do a load. - The pool was very outdated & super loud if any kids were in it (it echoes because it is indoors and you can't hold a conversation). - The pool is cold even though they say it is heated. It is okay to put your feet and legs in for a quick cool off, but you can't swim in it long. They set it at 80 degrees and there is no sun to counteract the cold because it is indoors. The proper temperature for the elderly and children is from 84 to 94 degrees. 80 Degrees is for competitive swimmers to keep them chilled and stimulated. I wonder if the managers have ever swum in the pool to see how cold it really is. The pool was the only reason we booked this park so we wasted 3 nights here and paid almost $55 a night for a parking spot. The staff, grass sites & the trees give this the extra star otherwise it would be a one-star based on the pool & amenities. Overall, we would not recommend this place if you want to use the facilities. If you are just passing through for a night I would not recommend it either because it is so overpriced (there is BLM land all around the caverns for an overnighter).

    We arrived here after leaving the Carlsbad KOA. We have two well mannered dogs that we're not welcomed because they are pit bulls (at the KOA). Simple grounds but clean and well maintained. Thank you for an excellent stay! The spot was a back in and was grassy and comfortable. Lovely people. Thanks for a great stay. We will be back.

    They moved our reservation back the three weeks without a charge so we could still bring the grandkids to see Carlsbad Caverns.
