Coyote Keeth's RV Park
Overview
Overview
Coyote Keeth's RV Park in Clayton, New Mexico offers travelers a classic high-plains stopping point along the historic trade routes of the American Southwest. Situated in the northeastern corner of the state, this property serves as a practical basecamp for road trippers navigating the vast expanses of Union County. The setting reflects the rugged, wide-open landscape characteristic of the region, where travelers find a quiet atmosphere away from major interstate corridors.
Location & Surroundings
Positioned near the intersection of major regional highways like U.S. Route 64 and U.S. Route 87, the park sits amid rolling grasslands and dramatic volcanic mesas. The climate features crisp air, abundant sunshine, and sweeping horizon views that define northeastern New Mexico. Visitors approaching from Texas or Oklahoma traverse the high plains before reaching the steeper terrain of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains further west.
Amenities & Park Features
Because specific on-site infrastructure details are not universally documented, guests should verify specific features prior to arrival. Travelers planning a stop here should contact management directly to confirm essential details such as hookup types, maximum vehicle lengths, water availability, and pull-through versus back-in site configurations. Understanding these operational logistics in advance ensures a smooth arrival in a remote high-plains environment.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
The surrounding landscape provides ample exploration opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts and history buffs alike. Just east of town, Clayton Lake State Park offers trout fishing, boating, and a notable trackway of dinosaur footprints preserved in the sandstone. Further west, the towering volcanic landmark of Capulin Volcano National Monument provides paved rim drives and panoramic views spanning multiple states across the southern Rockies.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination suits cross-country road-trippers, history enthusiasts, and travelers seeking an authentic New Mexican plains experience without heavy tourist congestion. It functions well as a strategic overnight halt or a multi-day staging area for exploring nearby state parks and geological monuments. RVers prioritizing solitude, open skies, and proximity to regional highways will find this location aligns with their travel style.

Todd Searcy
One of my favorite RV parks while traversing through NE New Mexico. Have stayed here 4 or 5 times. Is so easy to pull off the road, on to a pretty level site with great working utilities, quickly set up/take down and be back on the road. Exactly what we need when travel through the area.

The bathroom was clean but only had one shower, no bench or hooks in the shower area. It was wheel chair accessible is why, however would be nice to have another option. Also very rustic. Sites are gravel pull through 20/30/50 amp at each w/ full hook ups. No pool or any other amenities. Just a place to park and sleep.

Really convenient location as you are passing through Clayton. We only stayed one night but a really clean campground that is pretty wide open. Sites were nice and it was pretty obvious the power hookups were fairly new. Sites were not stacked on top of each other (only 32 total I believe). Restrooms were clean as well as showers (although we did not use showers. Good value and would recommend Coyote Keeth's if you need a place for the night as you are passing through.

What a wonderful place to overnight on our trip west. The park is clean and well maintained. The large space between campsites is really nice. We especially like that the sites are all pull through! Only a few sites have picnic tables.
