Find extreme solitude and unforgettable views of Guadalupe Peak at this desert escape next to Guadalupe Mountains National Park! This is choose-your-own-adventure camping. The terrain is rugged, and the dust and wind blow some nights. Once you're here, there are zero amenities (other than picnic tables). If this sounds fine — you don't mind roughing it — you'll be sleeping under the stars at the foot of West Texas' tallest mountain range. And who else can say they've done that? Distance to nearby attractions: Guadalupe Mountains National Park Visitor Center, 11 miles; Black River Recreation Area, 42 miles; Carlsbad Caverns National Park Visitor Center, 52 miles Distance from nearby towns: Dell City, 34 miles; Van Horn, 56 miles; Carlsbad, 65 miles; El Paso, 104 miles

Ocotillo Grande

RV/tent site · Sleeps 6 · Vehicles under 15 ft

Camp among the ocotillo and yucca as you bask in epic views of El Capitan and Guadalupe Peak! We have four picnic tables scattered around the property and two portable toilet chairs for emergencies (no toilet paper provided). Otherwise, there are zero amenities here. No water, no shelter. Also, Far West Texas can be windy and dusty. If that's no problem, you'll have 20 acres of open desert to find and create your home away from home. There are shovels and rakes if you want to clear your own campsite. Also, feel free to add onto the rock fire rings! Ocotillo Grande is accessible to vehicles that have at least 6 inches of ground clearance and can handle dirt roads, so it's a great option for people who will be arriving via car or compact SUV (unlike our other site, Guad Amighty, where a high-clearance 4WD vehicle is required). Please note: We've received feedback that Ocotillo Grande's bumpy trails are not suitable for small cars or large RVs. Campers who enjoy their time in this special place are the ones who are self-reliant, embrace the adventure, and don't mind roughing it in the middle of nowhere. When you book Ocotillo Grande, you will receive arrival instructions via email. It's important that you read these instructions carefully. Make yourself at home anywhere on the property, and let me know if you need anything!

Attention: Only high-clearance, 4WD vehicles can access this site! Looking for a campsite with the closest, most breathtaking views of El Capitan and Guadalupe Peak? Well, you found it. This site is only accessible to high-clearance 4WD vehicles. It's 30 acres, and you are welcome to camp anywhere on the property. I recommend the hill beside three tall yuccas. That's where I put a fire pit and picnic table. If you're feeling adventurous, you can also hike to the top of the hill for amazing views in all directions. Up to you! Please note -- the trail to the campsite is extremely sandy, with some uneven spots where you will drive through rocky terrain. The road is prone to sudden washouts after heavy rains. Unfortunately, a 2WD or AWD vehicle cannot handle the terrain here. That means no Subarus, Ford Escapes and other small SUVs. This area is extremely remote, so getting towed is very costly and can take more than a day. If you have a suitably rugged vehicle, awesome! Come on! If not, please don't risk an emergency in the middle of nowhere. Instead, consider our other campground, Ocotillo Grande, which is really special and is far more accessible.

This campsite offers stunning views of the Guadalupe Mountains, making it a scenic choice for campers looking to enjoy nature's beauty. It's a simple, primitive site, ideal for those who don't mind the lack of amenities like running water and toilets. The location is relatively easy to find, and though highway noise is present, many campers found this minor compared to the beautiful surroundings and sense of safety. With its proximity to the national park, it's a convenient spot for visitors looking to explore the area.
