Campground Overview
About Along the River RV Park, Campground and Cabins
How does a campground combine serene mountain charm with modern conveniences? Along the River RV Park, located just beyond Capitan, New Mexico, offers a harmonious retreat where visitors enjoy expansive mountain views, abundant wildlife, and starlit evenings by the fire. This peaceful and well-maintained destination is uniquely situated along a tranquil riverside, providing a quiet escape while ensuring accessibility to nearby attractions.
Each of the 40 sites is designed to accommodate RVs with full hookups, and the campground also features charming cabins for a cozier stay. The property is adorned with shady trees and open grassy areas, creating a perfect blend of sun and shade. Campers can enjoy quiet seclusion while still being a short drive from Lincoln National Forest’s hiking trails, Fort Stanton’s historic sites, and Capitan’s Smokey Bear Historical Park.
Positioned just 9 miles from the vibrant town of Ruidoso, the campground is an ideal hub for activities such as shopping, dining, and cultural exploration. Nearby, the Valley of Fires Recreation Area and Three Rivers Petroglyph Site offer a glimpse into the region's unique geology and ancient history, making the campground an excellent base for both relaxation and adventure.
