Camp Rio, formerly named Camp @ Cloudcroft is located in beautiful SE New Mexico! The park is surrounded by thousands of acres of the Lincoln National Forest. The forest is laced with small villages, picturesque roads, riding, hiking, golf, and walking trails. Small valleys, surrounding mountains, racing streams, wildlife, birds, mountain glens and outdoor activities are available to Camp Rio guests. The small towns around us are Mayhill, Cloudcroft, Weed, and Pinion. These towns have scheduled activities such as arts and craft fairs, car shows, bluegrass festivals, dog shows, and Lumberjack days. Additional day trips to Alamogordo, Capitan (Smokey the Bear), Carlsbad, Las Cruces, Lincoln (Billy the Kid), Ruidoso (skiing), Sunspot (National Solar Observatory, Truth or Consequences (Hot Springs) and White Sands National Monument! Guests enjoy our upgraded free wifi to have the best of both worlds, surrounded by beautiful nature, while still being able to connect with family/friends/work.

We enjoyed the dog-friendly atmosphere with plenty of shade and a nice stream right in front of our tent. The bathhouses were very nice — plenty of hot water and space to spread out toiletries, etc. Everyone was very nice and welcoming. We would definitely recommend this campground to friends!

Very well kept camp grounds. Bathrooms super clean. Great place. My only suggestion would be to have the ability to book a specific tent site. I am a super light sleeper, and I would have preferred to have a site that was further away from everyone else to allow for better sleep. We ended up directly in the middle of a 9 year olds camp birthday celebration with lots of kids and a pretty large group of adults as well. Needless to say, I didn’t get much sleep with all the back and forth of people and kids. I would definitely go back, I would just make sure I called and asked to be placed in a more remote tent spot.
