Very nice, beautiful, and very well maintained.

Beautiful area with very well laid out campsites. We tented and there was plenty of flat ground for our two tents.

Tent area does not have water as advertised. Dishwashing station is in RV area, not tent area. Site #16 has no shade and was very windy (highest site with no tree protection).

The Pine Springs campground at Guadalupe Mountains National Park is the best public tent camping area within at least a 100 mile radius. Because the campground is small (less than 25 tent sites), it is essential to reserve in advance. Even when the national park is busy during the day, the campground is pleasantly quiet in the evenings because of the small size and lack of other nearby facilities. The RV campground did not appear nearly as appealing as the tents-only campground. We enjoyed the regulation that prohibits campfires in the campground, which keeps the air fresh at your tent site.

This is a beautiful campground, well maintained and easily accessible. The hiking trails are nearby and the visitor center is very informative. We tented and it was windy!!! Be aware that this is not unusual! We also had a hammer to set our tent stakes and were glad to have it. The ground is hard. The views are lovely and sunsets sunrises are gorgeous! I would return here gladly.

busy, but most of the sites hare sequestered so you get some privacy. bein so close to the trailhead is great

It's a small campground with campsites that are relatively close in vicinity, though separated by trees. My campsite was #16, which was private for the most part - close to the Group Sites and the restrooms. Campsite is fairly hard and rocky, which is par for the course, but it was very well maintained and clean. Had a picnic bench which makes things easy to set up your stove and have lunch/dinner/breakfast. Toilets are close by. Unfortunately, the water fountains at the campground were inoperative, so there's no potable water - you'll need to bring your own. Parking at the campsite is limited, with overflow parking available some distance away. So, the parking will fill up quickly and latecomers will find themselves having to park some distance away and carry their stuff in.

Site 16 for tent has close/easy access from road. There was no water in the park except at the bathrooms by the trailhead to Guadalupe Peak.

Very clean and accesible.

@JoanieK5BC51A7 · Camped on May 24, 2023 at Campsite #16

Be aware that some tent sites are walk-in only and parking is not always convenient. Dish washing sink is in RV section of campground.

@StevenQ315 · Camped on Dec 13, 2021 at Campsite #16

Great facilities, but windy.

@RebeccaD146 · Camped on Nov 12, 2021 at Campsite #16

We camped at campsite 16 in Pine Springs. Very peaceful and quite area. Close to the restroom and walking distance to parking. We hiked the Peak the following day and the trailhead is very close. I will camp here again to hike McKittrick Canyon.

@JenniferP403 · Camped on Oct 13, 2021 at Campsite #16

The camp sites are nestled into the desert, completely set apart from one another. Bathroom was clean. The only downside was the intense wind that almost knocked our tent over....we heard that was pretty common so be sure to plan for wind regarding structures and cooking.
