My son has enlisted in the army and will be leaving for boot camp on August 5 at Ft. Sill (Lawton, OK). Sometime in mid-October, he will do his advanced training at Ft. Bliss in El Paso. Our family tradition is to camp the week of Thanksgiving and I would like to continue.

I've looked at the Texas Parks & Wildlife website and they don't have a state park in the El Paso area with hook ups. So my next choice is to ask the RVing community their opinion. So with that said...what are y'all s opinion for camp grounds in the El Paso/Ft. Bliss area?

Thanks in advance.

I just spent a week in the El Paso area. My friend who is retired Army showed me a RV park for the military in El Paso. With your son in the Army, maybe he can get you access?

If you are traveling from the East on I-10, take a look at Balmorhea, if it fits in your plans. Pleasant surprise.

We stayed at Mission RV Park a few years ago and it was ok.
