For a memorable day trip, the stunning white gypsum dunes of White Sands National Park are accessible, providing a stark and beautiful contrast to the green mountain scenery found in Mayhill.
Who This Park Is Best For

Beautiful park, well maintained and staff are great people to work with, this was our 4th year to spend a week in August for my husband's birthday. We love it and always sad to leave.

Beautiful RV resort. Spacious spots and very shady. Deer and elk everywhere, Beautiful brooks flowing through the park. You can sit and listen to to sounds of nature. Lots of birds to watch and great quiet place.

We went there by mistake and it was a great mistake. We had a wonderful time there. It was so peaceful, of course it was during the week, and picturesque. The park is very well maintained and our hosts are so hospitable. They went out of their way to make us comfortable. I will strongly recommend Deer Springs to my friends

Great RV park. Good location. Clean and well maintained. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Peaceful and quiet. Lots of trees for shade. Easy access off of Hwy 82 and 130 Will definitely stay there again when in the area. Only drawback was cell service not real good in that area.
