Kiva RV Park & Horse Motel

4 ReviewsAdd Review
SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Accessible via gravel roads, Kiva RV Park & Horse Motel accommodates RVs up to 60 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections. The park operates year-round and accepts reservations, offering a Good Sam discount that brings nightly rates to around $34 with tax. Sites feature gravel surfaces rather than concrete, with mature cottonwood trees providing natural shade throughout the property.

The campground maintains a mix of overnight travelers and longer-term residents, creating a neighborhood atmosphere that reviewers describe as friendly. A large corral area serves equestrian visitors, while amenities include restrooms, showers, laundry facilities, and a small dog park. John R. notes that "spots are accessible and park is clean." The WiFi service requires a fee, though cellular coverage appears reliable for those preferring mobile data.

Interstate 25 runs directly adjacent to the property, generating consistent traffic noise that some campers find manageable while others may find disruptive for sleep. The location provides convenient access to Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge within a five-minute drive. Sewer connections use open pipe systems without threaded fittings, which some visitors mention as less refined than standard hookups.

For those exploring the broader region, campgrounds around La Joya offer additional options within the Rio Grande Valley.

Guests frequently mentioned the clean sites with good shade and very friendly, accommodating management. The park's location creates noticeable interstate noise, though most found it acceptable for overnight stays.

Horse Motel

Park is very nice. Spots are accessible and park is clean. Stables for horses with exercise area. A little bit noisy from interstate but not to bad.

Humble but still pretty nice

We live in Albuquerque, but wanted to spend a day hiking the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge. Kiva RV Park is just a 5 minute drive from the NWR, so we stayed there on a Friday night, so we could get up bright and early for our hiking the next day.

The folks running the place were very friendly. Led us to our spot and made sure everything was okay for us. It's a fairly humble place...gravel roads and parking spots. No concrete to be seen. Each slot has a fairly wide planted area, but this is not patches of green lawn. They have mature native trees and shrubs that are well maintained. Plenty of big cottonwood trees provided shade. The place is clearly run on a low budget, but is well maintained and there is pride in the work here. When we visited, it appeared to be nearly full, and it felt like perhaps 50/50 mix between long-term residents and overnight(or nearly overnight) visitors. There is a large corral area for horses. We walked over to it but there were no horses there. There's a little dog park, a bathhouse and laundry. We didn't use any of those amenities, so I can't comment. I believe the laundry is listed as free.(This is not the case with the wifi, which was complex and had a fee.) I just used my hotspot from my Verizon service and because we had 4 bars, that worked just fine for streaming some Netflix that night.

We really like the place. Lots of neighbors, but everyone was very friendly, and no late partying. A few kids. But really, it was all very pastoral and nice. We'd stay here again. 

Not all was perfect. Aside from the less-than-friendly wifi: 1) The sewer hookup is just an open pipe. No threads. A little stinky when you take the cover off.  2) It is almost literally right next to the interstate. There's no denying those traffic noise is real. We slept with no issues, but if traffic noise doesn't act like white noise for you...you might want to look somewhere else. We're lucky; but I know this is a deal-breaker for some.

They do offer a Good Sam discount of 10%, so with tax, we paid $34. Well worth it. Very nice stay.

Nice for overnight

Nice place for an overnight stay. Owner is nice, laundry, showers & restrooms. Close to highway, which you hear, but nice stop for just an overnight. Takes Good Sam & Passport.
