Along the River RV Park, Campground and Cabins

We were lucky enough to stumble upon this gem. Our plan was to find a decent campsite to stay at while exploring the Ruidoso area in order to plan our next trip to a campsite with our kids… we wanted a nice wooded area with a creek. When we got to this one, we figured it would be hard to beat. We did some exploring and we were right! We already booked a future visit to this campsite. It is awesome! Regardless of the spot you chose, it is a beautiful area to walk through some forest with a creek running through the park. It is kid friendly and pet friendly. The staff are nice and very responsive. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else! Thank you Along the River!

This is our 3rd time staying at Along The River RV Park. This year we decided to drive around and check out other RV parks and none compared to Along The River RV Park. The park is always very clean and staff is amazing! It's the perfect distance from town, far enough to get the camping feeling but close enough to drive downtown Ruidoso and do some shopping. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Called a week ahead to get two tent sites reserved, that was fast and easy. We arrived on the date and time and everything was great they even sell firewood and deliver it to your site. Matt was very nice and helped us out a ton. We loved this place it's very beautiful and quiet at night.

What can I say..we have been coming here for years. They are awesome family, its like they know us personally and treat us like family friends. The park is clean and beautiful setting. We like hearing the water run and it's so peaceful, if your lucky you will see deer hanging around and occasionally wild horses. A must stay.

We scheduled online and requested buddy sites, as we were camping with another group. The young gentleman at the office was very friendly and helpful. He offered to let us pull into the site so our camper doors could face and then brought down down a splitter for the water and a 50 amp adapter so we could pigtail off the other sites electrical box/water. We all had wonderful pressure for water and no electrical issues, even with splitting with another campsite.

Kids had fund in the creek and enjoyed all the wildlife. The sites were clean and well maintained. We will definitely come back again!

We loved our time there! It was so peaceful. We stayed in the bunkhouse and we did not miss the amenities. The park staff were so nice and friendly as well. My only complaint is that I would have liked the bathroom to have been cleaned more frequently, but it never got filthy just a little messy and the shower floor could be cleaned daily, but again we are camping and I'm not expecting hotel maid service. We really did love our time there and hoping to do it again!
I'd post a few pictures but it's not giving me the option.

Very nice RV Park. Very clean. Some great sites. This was ouŕ first stay, and we will definitely be back. Next time for a longer stay.

2 years ago, we enjoyed a cabin at Along the River RV Park. This year we came back with our new RV camper knowing what a great spot Along the River is! This park mixes rustic charm with ease and creature comforts, such as clean bathrooms/showers and attentive staff that bring fire wood and burn tubs to enhance your camping experience. Camping Along the Rio Bonito River is well worth a return visit.

The campsite was clean and had all the hookups we needed. It was easy check-in and the owners were very personable. It rained everyday but we still got out and about and got some fishing in and a few hours at the horse races. Thankful for the rain and enjoyed our long weekend.

We stayed at the cedar cabin and it was everything we needed. You can even watch the river through the cabins windows. Perfect place for a getaway. Can't wait to go back.

This park is incredibly beautiful and peaceful. I spoke with Donna when I called, hoping to make a last minute reservation on a Sunday afternoon. She was friendly and personable and had us set up over the phone in minutes with a spot by a river. Eventhough we got there after close, we were shown to our site. A special trip was even made to get firewood for us. This is my first time to New Mexico and to be greeted with this superb hospitality means so very much. Thank you so much to everyone at Along the River.

So beautiful. We arrived near 9pm and they welcomed us even though it was after hours. The owners were so friendly. Let us know right away we couldn't use the showers because the pipes still freeze over night in March.Glad we didn't have to treck there in the dark to find out it was locked. They give you a map with wifi info and helpful tips! The river is really lovely and the property is just beautiful. Of course there are wild animals, it's out in nature. Lol

My family and I spent Fathers Day weekend here for the first time. It was amazing! So beautiful! The spot that Melissa gave us was perfect. There was a walk way to go to the river with a wooden swing. It looked magical. Melissa and her brother were awesome! Very attentive and caring for our needs. I’ve never seen bathrooms so clean at an RV/camp site like this one. I recommend this place 💯 percent. Will be coming back for sure. Loved it! My kids loved it! Very happy with our stay. Thank you for allowing us to make beautiful memories with our family. You guys are amazing! God bless!

We have spent many nights at this campsite at different times of the year and the service is always EXCELLENT. The campsite is always clean, well kept and Matt is an awesome host. He always greets us with a smile, checks on us and even knows us by our first name. This campsite is perfect for our family of four. Highly recommend!

We had a delightful site by the river. We had plenty of privacy and enjoyed walking over the wooden bridge to the other side of the river to visit with the friendly horses.

My wife and I stay a week here. It is a beautiful park very well maintained. The owners and host were very nice and very accommodating. Wildlife came into camp every morning and evening. We met lots of new friends and enjoyed our stay. We definitely will return.

Surrounded by nature and a beautiful little river that serenades campers. This is a perfect location, yet remote enough to allow you to enjoy the natural beauty of the area. Be prepared to have no cell signal and intermittent WiFi depending on how many people in the park. The staff is accommodating and friendly. Love this place. I hope to return.

I was looking for a nice campground that was not geared towards the party crowd. It was recommended to me by some friends to stay at Along the River RV Park and I am so glad that I took their advice!! Me and my boyfriend stayed in the tent section for 5 blissful days of peace and quiet. The camp sites are well kept, the bathrooms are surprisingly clean and the owners couldn't have been more hospitable. Barry, Donna and their son were gracious hosts and we are looking forward to a return trip. If you are looking for a party camping experience, look somewhere else, but if you just want to get away and enjoy some relaxation time, I highly recommend Along the River RV park!

This is a hidden gem! It is are second time back and we will definitely come again if our travels lead us that direction. Matt is very friendly and helpful. It is a clean quiet park right on the river. Great Wifi, however no cable. You don't want to be inside with the beautiful surroundings!

What a delightful find!!! We had the park to ourselves (Monday check in). BEAUTIFUL park, gorgeous area. Family run park & I DIG that!!! From the owner’s son taking our reservation to the daughter that checked us in.... AWESOME! Be sure & check out the hand made wood with beautiful burned-in etchings, made on site by the owner’s daughter, incredible stuff! We’ll be back for sure!!!
