Raton, New Mexico Campground | Raton KOA Journey

Raton is a convenient stopping place along the highway between Colorado and New Mexico!

For more than a century, Raton has been a convenient stopping place along the path between Colorado and New Mexico. Now the "path" has turned into I-25, and this campground is today's convenient stopping place for travelers seeking rest and recreation. From here, you can easily visit Capulin Volcano National Monument, the Boy Scout Museum, Santa Fe Trail and Raton's Downtown Historic District, or you can take in the Independence Day ballooning events, fireworks and small-town parade. You'll find restaurants, a grocery store and shopping right across the street from the Raton KOA and a game room and horseshoes right on-site. Max pull thru: 90 feet.

Very nice. The grounds were clean and well-kept. The office is undergoing renovation and next time we pass through (probably a couple of years) I look forward to seeing the improvements. Oh yes--the laundry was so very convenient to our site. 10/21/2021

Grant was a wonderful host and made me feel welcome. I love the Raton cabins and mostly the fact you have a screen door so my cat can watch me when I am outside. 10/20/2021

We’ve stayed at this KOA 5 times in the past. We’re passing through Raton from Northern Colorado on our way to winter in Tucson. The sites are easy to enter and exit, the hookups are close by and we’ll maintained. Grounds are clean and improvements to the park are noticeable... 10/19/2021

Great for a single night stopover. Nice site; easy access. 10/19/2021
