Las Cruces has something new to brag about: the local KOA campground has been recognized with RVshare’s coveted Best View Award, putting the Mesilla Valley destination on the map for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts across the country.

The honor, announced this week by RVBusiness, highlights the Las Cruces KOA as one of the standout camping destinations in the nation when it comes to scenic beauty. For a region already celebrated for its stunning Organ Mountains backdrop, sweeping desert vistas, and wide-open southwestern skies, the recognition comes as no surprise to locals who know just how breathtaking the area can be.

RVshare is one of the largest peer-to-peer RV rental platforms in the United States, and its annual awards draw on the experiences of thousands of travelers who camp at destinations nationwide. Earning a Best View distinction places the Las Cruces KOA in elite company and is sure to draw even more visitors to the area eager to experience those panoramic New Mexico landscapes for themselves.

For the Las Cruces community, the award is a welcome boost — shining a national spotlight on the city’s natural assets and the quality of its hospitality offerings. Increased visibility among the RV travel community can translate directly into more overnight visitors exploring local restaurants, shops, and attractions, providing a lift to the broader local economy.

Whether you are a longtime resident who has always appreciated the views or a first-time visitor rolling in with an RV, the Las Cruces KOA’s newly minted Best View Award is a reminder of just how special this corner of New Mexico truly is. Congratulations to the campground team on this well-deserved national recognition!
