Coyote Keeth's RV Park

Coyote Keeth's RV Park in Clayton, NM, offers full-hookup pull-thru RV sites carrying water, sewer, and electric. Contact the park for site count, amp service, and maximum rig length, since those specifics aren't published here. Every site is a pull-thru, so nothing needs unhitching. A bathhouse with showers, walking trails, and WiFi cover the essentials. Horse pens are available for guests traveling with stock, which almost no highway park offers. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. Birding, hiking, and some of the darkest sky in the continental United States fill the property — northeastern New Mexico has almost no light pollution, and the stargazing is the reason to stay a second night. Clayton sits just off Highway 87 at mile marker seven in Union County, where the basalt flows of the Raton-Clayton Volcanic Field, the shortgrass prairie of the Kiowa National Grassland, and the Cimarron Cutoff of the Santa Fe Trail all converge. Capulin Volcano National Monument is a short drive west, and a state park and lake are nearby. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Call ahead about paddock availability and your rig's fit.
