Shady Grove RV Park
Overview
Overview
Shady Grove RV Park in Alamogordo, New Mexico offers a distinct basecamp experience in the scenic Tularosa Basin of the American Southwest. Travelers arriving in Otero County will find this property situated near the rugged foothills of the Sacramento Mountains, providing a desert-meets-mountain environment defined by wide-open skies, dramatic vistas, and deep regional roots connected to space history and desert rail routes.
Location & Surroundings
Positioned along the geographic corridor formed by US Highway 54 and US Highway 70, the park sits in a high-desert climate characterized by intense daytime sun, low humidity, and notably cooler evening temperatures drifting down from the nearby heights. Visitors navigate terrain framed by gypsum sand dunes to the west and towering ponderosa pine forests to the east, creating a striking visual contrast just outside the rig door.
Amenities & Park Features
Because specific on-site infrastructure details are subject to change, guests should contact management directly to verify exact hookup types, water availability, and 50-amp electrical capacity. Inquire ahead regarding site dimensions, slide-out clearance, and surface materials such as gravel or concrete pads, along with pet policies and vehicle length limits to ensure a proper fit.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
The surrounding landscape serves up world-class regional recreation, beginning with White Sands National Park located just fifteen miles southwest. Outdoor enthusiasts frequently explore the trails of the Lincoln National Forest rising toward Cloudcroft, or visit the historic space exhibits at the New Mexico Museum of Space History overlooking the Tularosa Basin floor.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination suits road-trippers navigating southern New Mexico who require a convenient staging area for exploring desert monuments and mountain byways. Snowbirds and adventure travelers seeking proximity to public lands, historical sites, and regional high-desert scenery will find the location ideal for regional touring.

I'm writing Another review., I have been here over 5 years and I got to know the new owner of this rv park , after 3 years of him owning the park he was complaining to me about him not making any money .this was in part by the old manger not doing her job right and letting people live here rent free after I recommended. New managers for the rv Park, they found Several. Tenants. Who had not been paying rent in the amount of thousands of dollars, she was fired, but allowed to stay on the rv Park Premises. And work alongside the new managers that I Recommended., soon after the new and old managers working together.. they became friends and have been trying to get me evicted , this is retaliation . But thanks to the owner tilling them to leave me alone I'm still here but have received 3 Eviction notices....I was told to remove my old review abour the new managers, i.told them I would do so if they would please leave me aloan. But that did not work I'm Continuously being harassed by them...so with this new review I'm Attaching what the new mangers said aboutmy review............ This needs to be took off of Google reviews about the park none of it is true ......up to date ..i.have now been evicted from the RV Park by the mangers I referred, 11/11/24. Some times we try to help people thinking its the right thing to do . But we all make mistakes in life this is how we learn .. I made one here but have moved on to a better place to call home . Trust me this rv park is bad news . These mangers will stab you in the back just like they did to me . ...I guess if you think your safe because the cops are there Arresting someone. Then this is the place for you ..good luck ..and the mangers don't care ..

I love it here I've lived here for 2 years now and the managers are awesome! The park is always clean and the grass is maintained. We have community events during the summer and we are growing a garden for the community too! Most of the neigh or's are nice.

Got in about dark on Saturday May 28. Office closed. Called the three contact numbers listed on the Welcome Board, no answer. Instructions were clear on where overnighters could park. Only hooked up to electric since we were moving down the road the next morning. On the board overnight rate was $50. They did offer 10% discount for military, AARP, Sam's or if you're 'just nice people.' We left $45 in the provided envelope. Advertised WIFI access, however no passcode available. Owner did text me the next morning but seemed confused on why I was reaching out. I just wanted someone to know we were there. Was easy in and out, just off US 54/70. Stoplight at the intersection.
