I stayed in the tent campground and it was lovely, everything you could want from a campground. It was quiet and there werent any lights from RVs running all night long since it was tents only. Bathrooms with heat and running water were a short walk away, as was a sink for washing dishes. Plus youre right at the trailhead for a bunch of hikes and a very short drive from the visitors center.

The campground is right next to a busy highway with a major hill, so I had to listen to the air brakes on semis all night. Otherwise it would have been a nice campground, but I expected peace and quiet in a national park.Don't camp here without ear plugs!

Fantastic camp grounds. Well maintained and well spaced out. The flush toilets were down, but that is totally understandable. The pit toilets were very clean and well stocked. Easy to find. Great views. Im glad they had a water fill station that was running!

Small campground (which we love) with good restroom/dish sink/trash amenities. Very convenient parking for campsites. Campsites are spaced pretty well. You can hear cars on the main road but that is minimal at night. Convenient to visitor center and trailhead. The ranger on duty at the information desk could have been more knowledgeable about the trail details. The NPS brochure doesn't describe trails like ones we've gotten at other parks but there is a sheet with some details on the board outside the visitor center.

Great park! Clean bathrooms, nice and tidy campsites. Awesome trails! The only downside is there is no shower. But drinking water is available as well as the sink for dirty dishes next to the bathroom building.

We booked tent site #1 for two nights in mid-February. The location felt secluded even though the other tent sites weren't far away. We had a great view of the surrounding mountains and easy access to the trails in the area.

Guadalupe Mountains NP is a hidden gem. Go visit and enjoy!

Nice little campground with water and a nice bathroom at the trailhead. Tent spot #1 was a bit
Of a trail walk around #2 but the site was nice

What a great campground! There was quite a bit of distance from other campsites and the one i was staying in. I did have quite a few sand flees bothering on my first night so i'd recommend bringing bug spray. There was no camp host, the neighbors played music on some speakers but it wasnt too bad. Absolutly beatiful campsite. I would recommend tent camping here over RV or car camping due to the additional view/privacy that the tent sites provide.

Nice tent sites! We liked the privacy of site 1. We’d also recommend sites 2 and 18.
We hiked Guadalupe Peak which is a tough but beautiful hike.

campsite was far from car park (like 200 m walk) and even further from the bathroom (400 m walk?) but it was beautiful and well equipped w a picnic table and plenty of space for 2-3 tents on the flats. no bear / food locker. a skunk got into my friends tent, so be careful about wildlife and food! excellent experience though. could not asked for a better location regarding trailheads. bathrooms were clean and had warm water. no outlets for charging devices though. my carrier is verizon and i had spotty service.

Peaceful, relaxing stay at Pine Springs campground site#1. Clean toilets in the main parking area closeby.
