"...The campground is located along a grassy valley cradled between Douglas fir, Ponderosa and Aspen-covered mountain sides. The scent of Ponderosa pine fills the area. This is a very pretty, rustic campground with an abundance of walk-in tent sites. Four pleasant day trips are visiting the town of Cloudcroft, Sunspot Observatory, Bluff Springs and Trestle Recreation Area. Cloudcroft has several craft and variety shops to include a miniature golf course. The Sunspot Observatory is at the end of the 16-mile Sunspot Highway or Scenic Byway. You can take a free self-guided tour of the various observatories and watch the scientists at work - a great place for the whole family. Bring a picnic lunch. The Trestle Recreation Area has the Cloud-Climbing Rail Trail with several scenic overlooks and a replica of a train depot. Bluff Springs is a trail leading to a waterfall. Pick up literature at the Chamber of Commerce in Cloudcroft...
