That campground is very nice except on Holiday weekends. There is a few old buildings in the area. A walking trail used to be next to the "river" but I did not catch any fish in the river back then. If you did not know it EB Lake is 86 feet low as of today. Sometimes the canyon can cause no breeze down there. Several bloggers have written that camping area up over the years. It will be nice to hear your input also.

The walking trail is still there. The water in what remains of the river is crystal clear and not very deep. I didn't notice any fish in it and I just assumed you had caught them all.

Somethings not adding up. Paseo del Rio campground used to be part of EB STAte Park when I was there. My state park pass was accepted by the ranger that stopped to check on me. It still shows on the EBSP map as a camping location in the State Park.

While I was at the river campground I picked up a pay envelope at the entrance where the iron Ranger is and the pay envelope says the company in charge of the campground is Lago Rico Inc. that's located here in Elephant Butte. It also calls itself Elephant Butte Lake Historic District. It appears to be tied in with the two marinas on the lake also as their websites are listed on the pay envelope. That's all I have to go on because they were no officials that I could talk to at the site. I wish it were part of the state Park it sure would be cheaper. Maybe while I'm there I'll run into somebody who knows something and I can straighten it all out.

I was going to guess it is a CoE park until Barney shot a hole through that theory.

A Corps of Engineers Park would make the most sense, as they build most of the dams and often build a campground nearby.
