I spent one evening in mid October and was overjoyed with my experience.

20 minutes outside of Santa Fe it feels like could be hours away from civilization.

Be aware I lost all cell service as soon as we started into the mountains so expect to be disconnected during your stay.

There are about 30 campsites of which can only be reserved in person. (At least according to the website) a few sites are designated as first come first serve and can’t be reserved at all. We got to the campground around 3pm and was able to find the one open FCFS site.

Water is currently out at this campground and I heard a few folk mentioning it’s been under repair for some time.

So bring water and firewood and if you use first come first serve you’ll need 10$ cash to leave in the pay box.
