Quick summary: don't tent camp at the "Mountain View" site. I took my youngest son tent camping, and we stayed here because it was on our way to Cloudcroft where we went hiking the next day. The staff were welcoming, and the little stream is nice, but the "Mountain View" tent site (1) doesn't have a good view of a mountain, (2) doesn't have fire pits (though the the rest of the camp does), and (3) is adjacent to the highway, so it is difficult to sleep due to the vehicle noise. Furthermore, another group tent camping was loud, inconsiderate, obnoxious, and profane; they kept yelling profanities and honking their car horn, way after 10 pm and as early as 5 am. The staff did not enforce the quiet hours (10pm-8am) explicitly stated in the terms and conditions that we were required to sign. We have previously enjoyed camping at several of the public campgrounds near Cloudcroft, and they are more suitable than Camp Rio for tent camping and enjoying a camp fire.

Nice little campground in the middle of the Sacramento Mountains. Some of the sites are really close together and some are spread out. We don't have water at site 13 but our neighbor does so I asked if I could put a wye on his. Thankfully he's friendly and agreed. 50 amp in select sites and 30 for the rest. We will be coming up again as they had no problem with our bringing up our pack of six foster dogs.

First time visiting this place. We went camping and fishing (no luck) really liked how calm and peaceful it was until a big family came and they were pretty loud all weekend and their kids were throwing rocks and sticks at the ducks. We liked the amenities they offered from being able to take a shower to using their kitchen area our little stoves were kinda slow. We enjoyed sitting by the stream and watching the birds, ducks, doe, cows and hummingbirds. I didn't get a picture of the mama duck with her babies.We really loved watching the rain and hail. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a get away

BEWARE the cabin should get 0 stars. Jay and the woman that lives in the trailer beside the office are both terrible to work with. The check-in process for the cabins wasn’t secure. Our keys were just hanging up outside the office for anyone to grab because it was after hours (6pm). Good luck with getting any decent wifi while you’re there. There was no way to search for anything on our phones. We had to drive up the road to get a signal to make a phone call. Once we got inside the cabin we quickly realized that we weren’t able to stay at that property for the weekend. In addition to the lack of wifi, there were stains all over the bedroom floor, on the bed comforter, and in the bathroom (pictures included). The cabin overall felt claustrophobic and gross. Upon vacating the property, we were berated by the woman in the trailer next to the office for finding other accommodations and for bringing our issues to light with the booking agent.

Overall we had a great time. The park seems well maintained. Bathhouse was clean. Park hosts were friendly. But.....the spaces are way to close. The lay out of the spots make it claustrophobic. Also it forces campers to face each other.. like shared yard space if you will. Our doors literally opened in front of each other, no privacy at all. We have been to many rv parks and this was the tightest on space we have ever stayed at. Week days were not as busy. Overall we won't go back to this camp. Also you can't request a spot. They decide where to place you. If the spots were better thought out this would be great.. but unfortunately the way hookups are you have to face each other.
