Discover Franklin Mountains State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

Stretching all the way to the outskirts of El Paso, Franklin Mountains State Park is a rare example of a state park located entirely within the city limits of a bustling metropolitan area. The park’s namesake Franklin Mountain isn't just the park's centerpiece; it's a place of great historical importance. The mountain contains traces of human presence dating back around 12 millennia. The Native Americans most likely used the mountain for gathering food and medicinal herbs, and they also etched the images on rock walls and boulders.

Camping at Franklin Mountains State Park

Franklin Mountains State Park camping sites are, in a sense, modest when compared to other state parks of a similar size. There are only a few RV camping spaces available here. Online reservations aren't available. Campers can only reserve their site at the park office. This is an important detail, especially for those who plan to come here via RV rental, as coordinating the dates for camping at the state park and renting an RV might be more difficult than usual.

Easy to drive, user friendly. This rig has all the bells and whistles! Trevor provides everything you with everything you need for an excellent experience. From seasonings/coffee, plush bedding, and toiletries, he has thought of it all. For added peace of mind, Trevor quickly responds to any questions/needs and provides great recommendations. I can’t say enough to portray what an amazing experience I had with both this van and with the hosts. 5 stars all around.

We had an amazing time renting this and taking it to Elephant Butte Lake RV Resort where we enjoyed quality family time. The host Sabryna was extremely responsive and attentive. We would 100% rent from them again.

Overall, I had a very good experience with the Casita.
Host: Hugo was a great host. He provided a thorough orientation to the Casita, and was overall friendly, helpful and flexible. He responded promptly when I had a question about operation of the fridge during the trip and followed up to find out if the issue was resolved.
The Casita: Was fully equipped with bedding and cooking utensils, and fully operational. The bed was comfortable and the Casita was clean and in good condition.
Towing: The tow vehicle was a 2020 Ford Ranger. Towed the Casita over 2 mountain passes without difficulty. The Casita was a good tow...light and followed without any noticeable sway or other difficulties. New tires and running gear in good condition.
