Three (stars) for free

Tatum, NM city park/ community Center AKA Rudolph Rampy RV "park." FREE with full hookups: water electric & sewer. We only used electric. We could not tell from reviews whether there is a bathroom available (reviews we saw gave conflicting info). There IS a men's & women's bathroom across the street at N Daniel/E Beech streets at the city park (see pics below). The men's toilet itself was worn but clean (seat loose & not attached) & flushed. Urinal flushed. NO water at sink. Women's bathroom: Worn, toilet not flushing well, water works in sink. There was a 3/4 toilet paper roll in ea.(take your own in case they don't restock). There are about 7 or 8 spaces. Info we saw said free with limit of 3 nights. There was an out of state camp trailer with skirts on it & so we surmise that it had been here a while- - later a Tatum City Police vehicle pulled up & an officer went inside (so whether he lives there or not, nice to know he's around. That said, the area is quiet and seems safe otherwise). RV lot is loose asphalt/gravel with small community center bldg on one corner that sounds like might be have church service (Sunday emerging as I write this). Park & baseball fields (see pics). No frills, but FREE!, so 3 stars. Would stay again if traveling thru on long trip. THANKS Tatum city, NM!
