Rocky Point Campground

About

Rocky Point Campground sits within Santa Rosa Lake State Park in Guadalupe County, New Mexico, where the high plains meet a 3,800-acre reservoir managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. At 4,751 feet elevation, the park provides a scenic setting for camping, fishing, and water recreation. The campground is divided into two distinct areas: Loop A features reservable sites with electric hookups (30 and 50 amp) and water connections capable of accommodating larger RVs up to 50 feet, while Loop B offers dry camping sites available on a first-come, first-served basis. Facilities include modern restrooms with flush toilets and hot showers, vault toilets, an RV dump station, and water hydrants throughout. Sites typically feature covered picnic tables and grills, though fire restrictions may apply seasonally. The park offers diverse recreation including motorized and non-motorized boating, fishing for largemouth and smallmouth bass, catfish, bluegill, crappie, and walleye, plus 5.5 miles of trails for hiking and horseback riding. Additional amenities include a playground, volleyball court, horseshoe pit, group shelters with electric and water, and wildlife viewing blinds. Reservations for hookup sites can be made through Reserve America up to 6 months in advance. During peak season (May 1 through September 30), stays are limited to 7 days within any 20-day period.
