The park is HUGE and it's definitely not necessary to stay out of the park adding driving miles.
If you need full hookups, stay at Rio Grande Village RV in the park.
If you don't need hookups there are 3 campgrounds:
- Rio Grande Village campground (next to the RV park). This is where we like to stay. It has trees, big spots and is very pleasant - right on the river. Generators are allowed and there's a water fill and dump station. There's a small store, showers and laundramat.
- Chisos Basin campground - good for small rigs. I think the limit is 22' or so. It's higher elevation so it would be cooler temps.
- Cottonwood campground - very nice with trees and on the river. However, generators are not allowed.
