Positioned just off Interstate 25, this KOA sits on 60 RV sites with full hookups and accommodates rigs up to 110 feet. The campground operates from a short dirt access road that can get rough during wet weather, as several campers have noted. Sites range from open spots with valley views (numbered 1-7) to tree-covered areas that provide daytime shade during New Mexico's warm summers.
The established trees throughout much of the property create a different atmosphere than many southwestern KOAs. Sites sit close together, typical for the brand, but the mature vegetation offers some natural screening. "Despite being right off the highway it is quiet," reports Dan J.. Resident cats and dogs roam freely through the campground and may visit campsites. The county road leading to the entrance makes for decent walking routes.
A distinctive feature here is the breakfast service, available starting at 7:30 AM for around $6.40 per adult. The menu includes pancakes, eggs, and potatoes with green chilis. The campground also has a pool, playground, game room, and small store. WiFi reaches throughout the property. Full hookups include electric, water, and sewer connections that reviewers describe as reliable.
The facility shows mixed maintenance conditions according to visitor reports. Some areas appear well-kept with fresh gravel, while others need updates. Dan J. found it "looked very clean and well kept," though experiences vary by season and recent weather. The location works well as a base for visiting Fort Union National Historic Site and exploring Las Vegas, New Mexico's historic downtown.
Book ahead during peak travel seasons, as the convenient interstate access makes this a popular overnight stop for travelers.
Description
Travelers along the Santa Fe Trail used to arrive on horseback or by wagon to this lawless frontier town, where Billy the Kid once evaded a lynch mob. Today, travelers enjoy a more civilized reception at this KOA, tucked into the pinon- and juniper-scented foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Wagon-wheel ruts, 900 historic buildings and the Fort Union National Monument highlight the area's past. Lakes and a national wildlife refuge showcase its natural wonders. Come in for our tasty breakfast buffet from 7:30 am to 9:00 am at a bargain price of only $6.00 plus tax per person. Find Southwest items in the campground store. Pool: May 15 - September 15. Max pull thru: 110 feet.
