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.

Friendly 10/18/2021

We have stayed here before, which is why we came back. It is an easy place to reach, the owner is friendly and accommodating. It has a dog park which is a must after a day on the road, for the pooches and the owners... 10/17/2021

Just overnight 10/14/2021

This was my first stay at a KOA. I wasn’t sure what to expect. I had picked up my new van earlier in the day and needed a place to stay for a night as I made my way home. I arrived late, but the office left instructions for my campsite and shower access... 10/14/2021

We had a great experience at the KOA in Raton. Our site was perfect and included electricity and water. The KOA is located near a neighborhood so it's fenced around the perimeter. Noise isn't a problem and once in your RV it's quiet. Grant, the camp host... 10/14/2021

Nice campground. Very quiet and a good place to catch up on some needed rest. Improvements on grounds and office remodel will make our next stop even better. We will return here again. 10/11/2021

We stayed in the Camping Cabins. The Cabins have always been clean and have a small refrigerator if you ask. The restrooms are in good shape, just need to be cleaned more often. The owner is very pleasant and easy to deal with. Will stay there again. 10/11/2021
