A timelapse of driving our RV, a Tiffin Allegro Bus motorhome, 301 miles from Las Cruces, New Mexico to Marathon, Texas. The video starts with a 2x zoom through our coach while the slides come in, for an interesting different perspective, and ends with the truck’s view of getting set up just before a rainy sunset.

Our review on Campground Reviews:
Nice place to stop in Las Cruces
This was our third time staying here and our first time not staying in one of the “view” sites, although we still had a decent view of both mountain ranges. This campground is conveniently off I-10 and has easy access to anything in Las Cruces. We camped at Las Cruces KOA Journey in a Motorhome.

Our site (with empty sites on either side, making it look more spacious than it was):





Utilities weren’t super convenient; having to use three 10-foot sewer hoses wasn’t ideal (the concrete pad and utilities were clearly set up with trailers in mind):


We enjoyed a local pizza delivery on our last night; tasty, fast, and inexpensive:

Still a nice RV park. No doubt we’ll stay here yet again in the future. (See our previous two stays for more photos.)
