One of the smallest NP service campgrounds in one of the most vast areas. 12 spots were filled and we had to sleep illegally under picnic tables. Huge amount of room for expansion and the only campground for hours around is this one. Been to many NP’s and NM’s and this is the smallest campground relative to the space for expansion and the lack of other viable camping in the area. Either you get one of the 12 little spots here or you must stay in a hotel in El Paso or Carlsbad, or drive an extremely long scenic route to Dog Canyon which is very remote for a small primitive campground. Disappointing the park service or county hasn’t stepped up with expanding or opening additional camping options in the area.
