Straddling the borders of Texas, Mexico, and New Mexico, El Paso is a trove of southwestern landscapes. Camping here means waking up to Chihuahuan Desert sunrises and rolling mountain views. Hiking, biking, and rock climbing are right out your door. And leave the rain gear at home—the sun shines 300 days a year over El Paso.

The starry Texas skies are best seen from an RV park, private ranch, or Texas state park just outside of town. A local favorite is Hueco Tanks State Park—one of El Paso's best-kept secrets.

Native American rock paintings and unique formations abound in this sacred place. Camping, hiking, rock climbing, and bouldering are some favorite activities. Just remember to plan ahead if you want to snag an access permit. (The park hands out 70 per day).

Smack in the heart of El Paso, you find Franklin Mountains State Park. With 37 square miles of mountain desert, it's the biggest urban park in the USA. Rustic RV and tent camping gives you easy access to the 100 miles of rugged trails. For even more adventure, ride an aerial tramway up North Franklin Mountain, or rock climb McKelligon Canyon. (Remember to BYOG—bring your own gear).

Of course, Texas isn't the only place to pitch a tent. Head just across the state border into New Mexico for wide open skies. The desert campground at Pancho Villa State Park is a good pick if you love visiting historic structures.

Welcome to the Desert Dome!

**Please read the full description before booking to ensure our unique desert oasis is the perfect fit for your stay!**

Experience the magic of the Southwest at the Desert Dome! Built in 2001 as a true labor of love by the local Chaparral community, this unique geodome is the ultimate home base for exploring southern New Mexico and West Texas—or simply unplugging under the vast desert sky.

The Ultimate High-Desert Home Base

Nestled quietly between El Paso, TX and Las Cruces, NM, you get peaceful stargazing with easy access to incredible day trips! We are perfectly positioned to explore:

National Parks & Monuments: Sled the white gypsum dunes at White Sands National Park, hike the peaks at Guadalupe Mountains National Park, explore underground caverns at Carlsbad Caverns National Park, or marvel at the vast landscapes of Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument and Prehistoric Trackways National Monument.

State Parks & Outdoor Spots: Discover world-class bouldering at Hueco Tanks State Park, hike to the historic Tin Mines Trail or Franklin Mountains State Park, or take a scenic drive to Oliver Lee State Park and City of Rocks State Park.

Charming Towns & Day Excursions: Visit historic Old Mesilla for local artisan shops and dining, head up to cool mountain pines in Cloudcroft and Ruidoso, or grab a famous green chile cheeseburger in Hatch, NM (the Chile Capital of the World!).

The Dome Experience & Custom Touches

Artisanal Dream Loft: Head upstairs to a luxurious king-size bed featuring a stunning, hand-carved bed frame brought straight from Juárez, Mexico! Paired with its own half bath and iconic floor-to-ceiling dome window views, it's the ultimate cozy nook for stargazing.

Open-Concept Living: Enjoy a spacious main floor with a full kitchen, dining area, a full bathroom with washer/dryer, and a relaxed living room equipped with two futons, a large reclining couch, and a Smart TV (just bring your favorite streaming logins!).

Beat the Heat: Goodbye swamp cooler, hello modern comfort! We’ve upgraded to full central A/C so you can kick back in crisp, cool air no matter how hot the desert gets outside.

Outdoor Chill Spots: Unwind around the front-yard fire pit and seating area for evening s'mores, or let your pups stretch their legs in the private back yard.

A Front-Row Night Sky Show: Located near Fort Bliss/White Sands Missile Range, you might hear occasional military training or even spot breathtaking tracer missiles falling across the night sky right from the loft window!

Pet-Friendly Living

Your furry friends are family here! We feature a built-in doggy door leading directly to the private, fully fenced back area.

Pet Guidelines: Up to 2 pets are welcome. If you leave your pet unattended, we kindly ask that they are safely secured or kenneled inside. Due to high summer heat, leaving pets unattended for long periods is strongly discouraged.

Embracing Authentic Desert Life

We want you to love the desert as much as we do, so here are a few fun "insider tips" for your stay:

Desert Flora (Goat Heads): Natural stickers and thorns are a staple of desert terrain! We highly recommend wearing sneakers or boots outdoors. Doggy booties are great for sensitive paws, though most pets handle it just fine.

Monsoon Season (June–Sept): Summer brings vibrant desert blooms, warmer temps, and quick afternoon rain. To keep curious desert flies outside where they belong, just give the front door a quick snap when coming and going!

Desert Critters: The dome is on a regular professional pest control plan! However, because we are nestled right in the high desert, an occasional curious bug might still pop in to say hello—it's just a natural part of desert living. Keeping doors closed helps keep them outside where they belong!

Security: For your peace of mind, Ring cameras are located on the exterior of the dome.

From breathtaking sunrises to unforgettable starry nights, the Desert Dome offers a stay unlike any other. We can't wait to host you! Bailey and Nadia

Please keep in mind that this is off-grid, dry camping with no water or hookups available. There is currently no bathroom on-site, though a porta-potty is coming soon.

A fire pit is available for your use, but fires must be self-contained and you must bring your own wood. We ask that you do not collect or burn any natural materials found on the property.

To maintain the tranquility of the area, we do not allow loud music or parties. We follow a "pack it in, pack it out" policy, though trash service is available for a 5 dollar fee.

Beautiful desert land with a view of Hueco Tanks State Park. This land is barely starting up so do not expect any glamping or 5 star facilities. There is electricity for RVs or window units for tents. There is a little trash here and there but I am working on cleaning this place up. Be patient and enjoy it for what it is. All natural! Be safe, this is the desert and home to critters, spiders, horned frogs, lizards, ants, cayotes, and probably snakes although I haven't seen any. There is a little shed where you can cook, get some shade, or just relax. The mesquite trees are being worked on so they are not big enough to provide decent shade. Be safe, be smart and have water with you at all times. There is no water, and no showers. But I am working on it! This spot is perfect for those hip campers visiting Hueco Tanks and need a spot to park or rest. It's for hip campers that are used to primitive camping and also to the people in the city that want to get away for a night or two but not drive too far out. The sunsets and stargazing are amazing. Far from the city but close enough to a 10 min drive to a grocery store.

Weekend Trip to Hacienda RV Resort

For 3 nights my travel dog and I stayed at #206 in this awesome, centrally located RV Park. It was quiet (except some Stern Drive traffic noise) with great views, level sites, paved park roads, great laundry & showers, friendly neighbors and professional, pleasant Hacienda RV Resort staff. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Ray & Lucille's place

This was our second time staying here. It's a wonderful space with great full hookups, expansive views, privacy and very easy access to the major east-west and north-south routes. We got to meet Ray and Lucille and their friendly dogs this time, and Lucille gifted us with delicious pecans grown on their farm. Wholeheartedly recommend!

1 night at Ray & Lucille's place

This was a great site! A little ways out but worth the drive. They had to sweet dogs that greeted up and got belly rubs from my kids. Communication was great with the owner as well as instructions

29 nights at Ray & Lucille's place

Ray and Lucille are great. They were very accommodating and responsive. They always answered any questions we had and made sure we were comfortable. The site is in a beautiful and peaceful location away from the city hustle and bustle but close enough to anything a person could need. We will definitely be booking with them again

Weekend Trip to The Desert Dome @ BNC Farms

The dome was great! We loved the open floor plan and hearing the birds from all sides of the house. The space was great, and the outside area was awesome to enjoy the sun. We enjoyed our stay at this hipcamp!

4 nights at Hacienda RV Resort

Very nice campground. Friends recommended it to me, and I’m glad they did. Front desk folks were terrific. Weather was hot so very few other campers were ever outside, so a pretty silent feel. I don’t have a dog, but I chatted with a couple of aussies that told me they liked the dog park.

Weekend Trip to La Vina rd

A gorgeous and quiet plot of land. Totally flat and taken care of spot to set up our tent. The surrounding trees blocked some of the wind, as well. We’ll definitely stay here again in the future!

Weekend Trip to Gleatherland Ranch

Camping site at Gleatherland Ranch, TX was nice, clean and quit. Was easy to find with provided directions. Full transparency, probably not ideal for the novice with towing an over 30ft travel trailer. Overland would recommend.
