The only way I can describe this RV campground we stayed in is.... Being stranded on the side of the highway with electricity while cars are flying down the hill. When we arrived we were told that they didn't have any water over the weekend because there was such heavy use. Guess the tank had to refill. This is just too close to the highway. I would NOT bring small children to this campground. Most of the campsites in the park are right off of the highway, with the RV elec sites being the closest , don't know what the planners were thinking!! No cell phone reception but there must be a public phone at the lodge. If you travel up to the ski area you can pick up a signal. I needed to pay some bills online. The dump station is at the beginning of the park on the left. There are gates that will be closed but shouldn't be locked. All of the RV sites are on the New Mexico reservation system. This park is very convienient to the Plaza and other sitseeing attractions. If you're looking for peace and quiet I would pass on Hyde Memorial. We left 3 days early and would never go back.
