I rented a small cabin, which was amazingly comfortable. The bed is very comfortable and clean, it would make a drill sergeant smile. Wendy the host exceeded all of my expectations, very kind and friendly. Comfortable and clean. The bathroom is sparkling clean. I will definitely be a guest again in the near future.

Convenient start for all the stuff to do around n the Gila Wilderness Well kept!. Wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else!

Great location. Higher elevation than RV sites closer to Silver City. it is so much cooler here. Only down side is that the campground is surrounded by neighbors with a lot of barking dogs. Some nights were quiet and some were hard to sleep. Given the cooler temperature at this elevation we like to sleep with our windows open. We didn't rate the service because we never met the manager so ther... Great location. Higher elevation than RV sites closer to Silver City. it is so much cooler here.

Good location for accessing Cliff Dwelling Monument. Pull through full hookup sites, reasonable prices, bathroom clean and hot water. Let us arrive late no problem. Small laundry which we used.
