Kevin’s site in Mescalero NM was really special. There was a little more ambient noise than I expected, wafting up from the village and roads. But the noise died down and the skies were starry (no light pollution). The campsite was level with a good view and a decent firepit (BYO wood).
It was easy to make a day trip into Cloudcroft for lunch and rock hounding, followed by an afternoon of hiking.
I would agree with other campers that the thing that stood out was the generosity of Kevin and his wife Shawn (not sure of the spelling). I was solo camping and they invited me and my dog into their home for morning coffee. They had lots of suggestions and also gave me a glimpse into Apache life.
Strongly recommend!

Must stay location
Tent · With kids
What a neat experience! The property is a perfect location for a view of some beautiful mountains! Kevin & his family is beyond welcoming. We actually booked the night before their wedding & they STILL HOSTED us with open arms! The entire family was around & friends for the big day they accepted us like family & took my kids all over to play & ride his incredible mountain bike trials. This is one of those camps that make Hipcamp worth everything because it’s more then a place to stay it’s an experience.

Kevins land provides a beautiful view and comfortable camping location. Kevin is incredibly friendly and helpful. He went above and beyond in all categories! I strongly recommend this location.

Peaceful with easy access to Ruidoso and not too far from Cloudcroft. Felt private despite the road and neighbors not far away. Very faint road noise in the distance, was not noticeable. kevin was very kind and showed us a trail behind his house and was able to run an extension cord out to our trailer. Would stay again.

Sugar Hill was just wonderful! Kevin's property was perfect for my dogs and I - quiet, in the woods, lots of trails that have been maintained by Kevin, so nice. Kevin was an amazing host - he was there when I arrived and got us settled in, later he guided us on a hike through his land. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!
