Dispersed camping defines the experience at Coyote Canyon Campground, where campers create their own sites within Santa Fe National Forest boundaries. The US Forest Service manages this drive-in area, providing access without designated spots or developed amenities. Campers must be self-sufficient with water, waste disposal, and power needs.
The forest setting allows flexibility in site selection based on terrain and vegetation. For those wanting more structured accommodations, Rio Puerco Campground offers developed facilities several miles west.
