What others are saying about this campground
Elephant Butte Campground is a great spot to explore South Central New Mexico. Located right on the lake, it offers stunning views, sandy beaches, and plenty of privacy. Campsites come with a picnic table, shelter, fire pit, and electric and water hookups. The public restroom is conveniently located nearby, and the shower house is open year-round. Boondocking is allowed on the beach, though the lake is currently quite low due to drought. There is a marina for ice refills, and local stores and groceries are a short drive away. The campground is well maintained and affordable, with nightly rates of under $20. Be aware that the roads can be sandy, so bring a vehicle with good traction. Also, the showers are push button type with only 60 seconds of water.
