"Our pups enjoyed the dog park, lots of enrichment items out for them. Very tidy, no trash. Nice pull through sites with rock "yards". Bathrooms were clean, staff was friendly."
"The FHU was a far better location with concrete pad, much less highway noise, and much better bathrooms. Sites are decent distance apart, not on top of each other but can certainly see each other."
$30 - $37 / night

RangerVery nice RV/Tent park. Operated by the town of Bernalillo, New Mexico. Prices range from $10.00 per night for tents and $20.00, $30.00, $35.00 per night for Rvs. Great view of the Rio Grande and Sandia Mountains. Just 15 minutes from Albuquerque. All RV sites have electric but most have electric(30 amp) and water. None have sewer hookup but there is a dump station on the property. We stay here every time we come to New Mexico. Highly recommend this campground!
RangerGreat spot not too far from Albuquerque, very peaceful and quaint. Friendly staff and dog friendly ( on a leash). Picnic tables, showers, laundry, clean restrooms, all nestled in the pine and fur trees.
GuideThis is a well-run RV park by Hiway 40 just a few miles from Albuquerque, NM. Full hookups, clean bathrooms, pleasant staff. There is highway noise, but the convenience was nice
ScoutThis spot is set between the road to Jemez Springs and Jemez Creek. Some sites are exposed to the road and its noise, although it’s not too bad. About half the sites are tucked in among the cottonwoods alongside the creek. Overall, a very pleasant getaway not far from Albuquerque.
ScoutEveryone goes out of their way to help you....I'm a newbie....so for me that was real important. The park is in an ideal location, right at the interstate...about 15 minutes from Albuquerque...yet still nestled in enough to give it a peaceful surrounding.
Traveler25 miles from Santa Fe and 50 miles from Albuquerque. concrete pads and concrete picnic table with charcoal grills with rock pebbles filled in and desert landscapes. very well spaced out and different levels so you have a view of the lake and surrounding area.
GuideDidn't camp here but came to enjoy the beautiful sunset. Drove a short distance from Albuquerque through Placitas, saw so many horses! This is an open space that overlooks the tail of Albuquerque, and the vistas beyond. I came for the sunset but would definitely stay if I was car camping. Wouldn't necessarily set up a tent for me, but some are braver than others!
LegendGreat stay! Our pups enjoyed the dog park, lots of enrichment items out for them. Very tidy, no trash. Nice pull through sites with rock "yards". Bathrooms were clean, staff was friendly. Thr highway noise didn't even bother us. Thanks Albuquerque KOA!
TravelerI liked it a lot. It’s $30/night, has full hookups, nice spaces with trees. They have fire pits and provided firewood. There’s water and a port-a-potty but no showers and no dump site. There are bear proof trash cans. The owners are on site and are a very nice older couple.
Apple Maps correctly labels the road as 4th of July Canyon Rd. Google maps calls it A013. There’s a little dirt road immediately after the cemetery on the right. It’s about a half mile down that dirt road on the right. There is a sign that says “RV park”, but it’s small so keep a close eye out for it.
There is also a small C Store in town with some supplies. It’s best to fill up your tank before leaving Albuquerque. Gas stations are few and far between and very pricy. It’s about an hour from Albuquerque. I have T-Mobile and had 3 solid bars with good speed.
If you're looking to enjoy the great outdoors with your furry friends, Albuquerque, New Mexico, offers several pet-friendly camping options that cater to both you and your pets.
