Raton, New Mexico Campground

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 friendly staff. Quiet night away from interstate. 1/1/2021

Everything was great the sites where long enough for big rigs. Only reason I didn’t give a 5 star was the WiFi! Super wimpy! Otherwise a great place to stay when on the road. Easy in and out to highway ! 12/30/2020

Great little campground! We only stayed for one night but kids loved the playground and there is a grocery store right across the street, which was very convenient. Grant was the nicest man ever. So helpful and you can tell he takes pride in his campground... 12/30/2020

Just an overnight on the road, but good service and site. 12/24/2020

Good location for a overnight stop, Greg (host) was fantastic and helped me out on arrival with a propane refill and was really welcoming. Looking forward to swinging through there again soon. 12/23/2020

We met our daughter & her family there for an early Christmas get together. The staff was awesome, friendly and helpful. The site & amenities were clean & well kept. We will plan to stay there again. 12/21/2020

Cabin was clean and appeared to have been disinfected. We arrived late, as planned, and clear, friendly instructions were given and cabin heater on so was warm. On check out they gave excellent advice on local openings and closures. Recommended. 12/21/2020

Super nice owner! Even checked road conditions for us before we left. 12/16/2020

The people who checked us in were the best. Would recommend this KOA if you are staying in the Raton / Trinidad area. 12/6/2020
