We had a wonderful stay. The wash rooms and showers were very clean. Dinner delivered to our site was delicious. Wifi signal wasn't strong enough to reach our site a signal booster would be helpful.

We arrived late and picked up our check-in package. There was not wi-fi code listed on our info packet and we could get the cable for the tv to work.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. We stayed in a cabin. Skillets in kitchen were in bad shape and the dishes in the cabinets were dirty and needed to be washed before use. Toilet was very loose and needed to be re-bolted to the floor.

The staff was extremely kind and helpful with accommodating our stay, we definitely enjoyed the atmosphere, lodging and amenities here.

Tent camped for three nights. Site was fine, staff were great! Only complaint is the location. It was 17 miles from Carlsbad and close to one hour away from the Caverns. Back and forth , back and forth.

My husband drove through an empty space and was scolded. We were told, when we arrived to not do that. That was my husband's wrong. They also said not to walk through anyone's campsite, which we obeyed. But more that 3/4 of the people walking in our direction walked through our campsite and NO ONE said a word to them. There is a double standard there. Otherwise the KOA was nice and clea

Clean, friendly, best spot in the area for tent sites with real showers and clean bathrooms

We thought the Carlsbad KOA was in Carlsbad. It was about 30 miles away. Too far after driving all day. It was also too expensive.

Checked me into a site that was already occupied and wanted me to come back to the office and get in line again. Couldn't figure out how to redeem my reward points.

We enjoyed our stay at the Carlsbad NM KOA. The park staff were all very friendly. The park was clean and well kept. The activities provided by park staff were very fun and entertaining for the whole family. Thanks for a great time!

Clean, great staff, spacious sites

Camp allowed loud music played by one camper to invade the privacy of many others.
May 31, 2017
Out of town with nothing around, but very friendly and nice. I would stay again if in the area.

My family and I really enjoy staying at koa's. We have stayed at numerous ones in many different states and have enjoyed them all and we always look for one to stay in whenever weI travel. I have to say all of them have been wonderful. I only have had one bad experience and that is at the koa in Alamogordo, New Mexico; the staff and manager were very rude and not friendly at all.

Only our second time to stay in a RV camp and we were so impressed with the camp grounds . Very clean and well kept. Employees stayed very busy making sure everything was in top shape . We enjoyed our stay and will be back !!!

There was considerable noise from neighbors in the tent village, and night car traffic on the gravel was noisy as well. Grounds and bathrooms were very clean. Showers were great.
May 30, 2017
The Carlsbad KOA was one of the nicer campgrounds we have stayed at. All the facilities were well maintained and clean. The sites we're level and plenty of space between the other sites. They had Starman John with his telescope and we got to see a upclose view of the moon and Jupiter and 4 of the moons. The WiFi was ok, we could not connect at our site but up at the main building it worked good.

What a Surprise! Great RV Park about 45 miles from Carlsbad Caverns (or anywhere else for that matter...). Mature trees, birds, bunnies, pool, laundry, staff - and great barbecue dinner delivered to your RV! Would recommend and would stay again.

Has a nice recroom that you can get the wifi and be in the air conditioning as I was staying there in a tent. The bathrooms were clean and well kept. Would have liked a little shade in the tent area.

If you are looking for the best RV site in America look no further. Staff is very friendly, restrooms are immaculate, sites are spread out level and clean plus where else can you go and get barbecue dinner served at your campsite?

Campground was really nice. Well kept and maintained. Bath & shower were very clean and smelled clean! Only down side for us was that we made reservations online and didn't choose a site,it was chosen for us. We got a buddy site and had to face the same direction as our neighbor. But we still enjoyed the campground and the local attractions!
May 30, 2017
The staff, accommodations and campgrounds are fabulous!!!!
May 30, 2017

Unfortunately our site had a broken beer bottle (which I luckily missed with the truck by inches). Staff were quite courteous, and helpful in cleaning up the broken glass. We were in an area without other rigs (given the earliness of the season).

Unfrotunately it was too windy for a fire and smores, but the location was perfect. far enough out of town to see the stars and close enough to Carlsbad caverns for a day trip.
May 29, 2017
Here 4 work couldn't get into park close to job for a week Koa had 4 nights open, worked to find me extra 3 I needed
May 28, 2017
Great facilities.
May 28, 2017
Stayed at the Carlsbad KOA for a couple of days while traveling to San Antonio Tx. The staff at this facility where kind and friendly. My family and I will definitely stay here again in the future.
May 28, 2017
two night stay and received good advice from the staff to the questions we asked.
May 28, 2017
A really large and busy RV park. Three people at the desk checking people in, two cooking and that's not counting the ground crew. The main building is as large as some parks I have been in. Only complaint was that the WIFI did not work the first day but was up and running fine the next day. They must have rebooted the router....
May 28, 2017
Extremely clean and modern convenient bathrooms and showers. Pool was excellent!
May 28, 2017
Wonderful stay. Will do again!!
May 27, 2017
Nothing deluxe about the deluxe cabin we stayed in. One could not stand up in the shower unless you are a midget. No hot plate to cook on,very poor internet connection,requiring one to go to the main building to use it. Lots of dog pooh in the tent areas. I was very disappointed that standards vary so much among campgrounds. The Tucson KOA was fabulous. This KOA was not.
