The Scenic Canyon Story

Owners Lori and Michael Widener welcome you! We are an adult only park. We are a relaxing and quiet  park with an abundance of wildlife!

Leaving the summer heat of the desert floor on Hwy 82, your drive takes you on a Pine, Spruce and Aspen lined road up to an elevation of about 8,500 feet and down to a temperature about 20 degrees cooler. Scenic Canyon RV Park is very close to 8,000 feet elevation. Scenic Canyon RV Park  is about 6.5 miles East of Cloudcroft, New Mexico on Hwy 82 and one mile down Dry Canyon Road. We are a quiet, peaceful, adults-only campground designed specifically for our guests aged 30 and over. With 14 spacious sites equipped with WiFi, Water, Sewer, and Electric, our park guarantees a relaxing getaway amidst scenic pines. Guests can enjoy a self-service model with hassle-free online booking, although we would like to inform visitors that shower and bathroom facilities are NOT available on-site.
