Sunny Acres RV Park, Las Cruces, New Mexico

by Diana in Campground Reviews on Saturday 17th February, 2018

We stayed at the Sunny Acres RV Park in Las Cruces, New Mexico one night as the base for exploring the White Sands National Monument. The RV Park by itself was quite quiet, however there are train tracks nearby. There were trains going through the night and they make really loud noises that did wake us up several times.

Location

The road through the park is really wide which made it quite easy to maneuver. The sites are separated by green patches of grass, some of them have trees and picnic tables. All sites have full hookups (30amp / water / sewer). The bathrooms and showers were very clean. There is RV storage right next to the RV Park.

We stayed at the site LL which looks tiny, but it did fit our 24 foot trailer and truck.

Internet / WiFi connection speed

Wifi in the evening of Mon, Feb 20, 2017 was horrible. We couldn’t even connect to do a speed test. In the morning the wifi connection was much better. The table below shows Internet speeds measured at 8am on Tuesday February 21, 2017.

We also stayed at Sunny Acres RV park in December 2018, on our "Plan B" trip. We agree with all that you noted - we thought it was a nice RV park. We didn't notice the train noises, but the one thing that WAS difficult for us was actually getting INTO the park from the main street. There was a lot of construction going on, and if you didn't know exactly where the turn into the park was, it could be rather tense.

Again, going with the "Plan B" "rules", we visited local attractions. One that was absolutely the MOST fun was the one with the most boring name - the Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum. It was EXCELLENT. Whether you are interested in seeing how a real ranch/farm works with live animals, or seeing antique clothing or wonderful artwork, this place had it all! And Google "water tower art murals" - you will be amazed to learn about an artist named Anthony Pennock who specializes in painting those big water towers you see everywhere. Hidden treasure...

You're totally right about the construction - we stayed there in November 2018 again, just before Thanksgiving, and there was lots of construction going on. Because we'd been there before, we remembered the entrance, but otherwise it would have been confusing!

I had wondered about the murals on the water towers, but hadn't thought to Google it. What an amazing hidden treasure - good find!

White Sands National Monument - World's Largest Gypsum Dunes

Monday 24th December, 2018

Spanning 275 square miles in southern New Mexico, the brilliant white dunes at White Sands National Monument are a sight to behold. But they’re also remarkably young - these dunes started forming just 12,000 years ago! We spent 6 days exploring to see what other secrets White Sands might be hiding.

Justin's Diamond J RV Park in Tucson, Arizona

Thursday 15th February, 2018

We stayed at Justin's Diamond J RV park for one night on Feb 19, 2017 to explore the nearby Saguaro National Park. This park seems to be catered towards longer term stay as it has lots of activities, for example mini-golf, bocce ball and walking trails that start right off the RV park. The sites were reasonably large, though there wasn't much vegetation to separate the sites. We were at site 39 and our 24 foot trailer and truck fit fine. When we stayed here in February the park was packed, but it was still quiet at night. [...]

Exploring the North York Moors National Park

Saturday 27th October, 2018

When I lived in England, I spent over 8 years in and around the North Yorkshire area. It's a beautiful part of England, with several National Parks within easy reach. One of these is the North York Moors National Park, and I was excited for the opportunity to take Diana there when we were back in the UK recently. [...]
