Camping at Ben Lilly Campground
Located along the banks of Willow Creek, Ben Lilly Campground offers a tree shade and a fair amount of peace and quiet due to being located far from town along a bumpy, narrow, dirt road.
The route starts from the town of Glenwood, NM at the intersection of US-180 and State Route 159 (Bursum Road). The road is paved all until you reach the other end of Mogollon, which then becomes firm-packed dirt and gravel. The road gets bumpy and rocky as you drive up and over the high points of the mountain range.
There are no trash cans at this campground.
