Most parks offer sanitary dump stations, though some charge additional fees for electricity usage beyond the daily rate. Cell service varies significantly across the region, with stronger signals in Taos proper and limited connectivity in higher elevation sites. Pet-friendly policies are common throughout area RV parks, though some implement breed or size restrictions. Winter camping requires preparation for freezing temperatures, with many travelers noting the need for heated water hoses at higher elevations.

    Angel Fire RV Resort

    Spacious, clean, luxurious!

    Very nice RV resort! Full hookup, concrete level pads, huge pull thru sites, great for large rigs. A lot of amenities: playground, tennis courts, hot tub, pool, clubhouse. Very polite and attentive personnel! Only a few miles (10min driving) from the ski slopes. If winter camping - heated water hose is highly recommended! During especially chilly nights be prepared to fill up your fresh water tank and turn off and disconnect the hose from the external water supply! If it is frozen overnight, you will be subject to $150 fee.

    Roadrunner RV Park

    Gravel parking lot, great location

    If you have a big rig and need a place to stay while exploring Santa Fe and the many national monuments in the area, this is a great location! It's not much more than a gravel parking lot, but it can accommodate your large RV and extra vehicle. Try to get a spot as far from the highway as possible.

    Owned by the pueblo, it provides large pull-through sites with 20/30/50A hookups, sewer and water, plus free wifi. There are shops and restaurants across the way. 

    Bandelier, Kasha-Katuwe, Pecos National Monuments are all nearby as is downtown Santa Fe.

    Questa Lodge & RV Resort

    RV park with a campground feel

    Nice park nestled at the foot of the mountains and on the banks of the Red River. Nicely landscaped with two ponds and a river walk. Location is great for visiting Rio Grande del Norte NM and the Wild Rivers Recreation Area. Just north of Taos too. Nicely shaded, level sites with full hookups. Nice picnic table and grill. Might be a little tight for big rigs, but my little Casita was quite happy. Very friendly folks in the office. Clean laundry and restroom. My site backed up to the river and the sound of the rushing water was the perfect lullaby.

    Taos Valley RV Park & Campground

    Very convenient location to all the sites in town

    I loved my stay here. This location is so prime for visiting all the sights in Taos, and there are many.  The campground is compact but still, private. There are several pull-thru sites for big rigs, many back-in sites with water/elec. hookups, and some tent sites in the back of the campground and a few sites at the front by the office that are back-in without any amenities.

    There is a dump station, a dishwashing area, bathrooms with very hot showers, a playground, and office. No open fires are allowed only propane or other contained fires. Cell phone service and wifi thru the campground is available tho not fast when everyone jumps on at the same time. During my stay everyone was very quiet.  My only complaint was a light that stayed on all night for security.

    Restaurants are really close enough to walk to and there is an Ace Hardware store across the street for emergency repairs. Old Town Taos is 3 miles away.

    Taos Valley RV Park & Campground

    Nice campground, but they don't include electricity in rate

    This is one of only a few RV parks in the immediate area of the city of Taos. This campground had positive reviews, and the photos looked nice, so we chose it. As other people indicated, the park is clean, and reasonably spacious for a private campground. There were buddy sites so your traveling partners could have coaches facing one another, which is also nice. 

    There was ample room to park both our fifth wheel and our truck. The sites we had were concrete and level(we were traveling with others, and their site at a different area of the park was dirt/rock and much less level). There was good Verizon and AT&T cell service in the park as well. 

    I don’t use park WiFi, the laundry rooms, or the bathrooms so I cannot comment on that(although people we were traveling with said they were nice). My issue with this park is the way they charge. 

    Their website indicates a certain charge for 30 amp sites, 50 amp sites, pull-thrus and back-ins. Also, some had sewer, and some did not. Not until we got there did we discover that although we had paid for a premium spot with 50 amp power and sewer, that the cost of the electricity itself was NOT included in the price. This was not prominently indicated on their website. Their policy/procedure was to take a meter reading each day, and that cost was added to the camper’s bill at the end of their stay. I understand that many campgrounds do this for monthly campers, and even weekly. I have NEVER seen this at a campground on a daily rate. I have been all over the country, staying at private campgrounds from coast to coast, and this was the only one that I have ever seen that charged for electricity on a daily rental. I brought this to their attention, and their attitude was, “that’s the way we do it” and was terse about it. The actual dollar amount was not great, about$2/night...but that was based upon our usage. 

    We had people traveling with us that used their air conditioner(we did not) and it was about$5/night. They have every right to do this, but it goes against the industry standard that I have seen everywhere else. So, I am only giving this campground 2 stars because of that. If it weren’t for that, I would give it 4 stars. Take this information and use it how you choose. 

    We stayed in a 35’ fifth wheel.

    Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs Resort & Spa

    Unbelievable Hot Springs w/ Camping Next Door

    This is another great spot in the New Mexican high country, especially if you’re a fan of hot springs AND vintage campers. In addition to full-hook up camping/ RV spots, the resort offers vintage campers for rent. It is a great and quiet place to rest, recuperate,

    and just enjoy yourself. 

    We stayed in the camping loop, and even with electricity and wifi available, had plenty of sunshine for solar power as well as good access for our Starlink. Cell service was pretty skimpy though. 

    The bathhouse at the camping area was well heated with wonderfully hot showers, flush toilets, and plenty of space. Water and a dump station was available in the camping area for an extra fee.

    Access to the hot springs spa was NOT included in the price for camping, and not inexpensive, but the variety of pools and the beauty of the place was worth it. They offer steam rooms, a multitude of pools of varying temperature and mineral content, in addition to a mud bath, lap swimming pool and full locker/ changing room.  They also offer full spa services, massages, etc.  It was very busy on the weekend with day-use customers, but going early or mid week was a far less crowded time. 

    The onsite restaurant/pub is a class act and delicious.  Nearby there are a few hiking trails right from the property, and with the national forest nearby there’s lots of outdoor adventures available. 

    The nearest grocery/ convenience store is just down the road, but the selection is pretty limited. The closest town with full services is in Espanola about 30 minutes away.

    Overlook Campground

    Good Option North of Santa Fe

    Dirt road leading up to campground was totally drivable but heavily washboarded at the beginning, so be advised if you're towing.  Plenty of room for my 25ft travel trailer and larger rigs should be okay as well.

    No water, power, or dump station, but there are individual garbage containers at each site.  As others have said, you can get water at the North Lake campground, but there's a pass you'll need to buy to get in.  I think it was $20 bucks for a year, and gets you access to a few other recreation areas further north.

    Seems like a lot of people come to the campground for day use just to hang and look out at the lake.  If you're staying long term, I'd avoid the overlook sites as there will be noise and traffic right there.  

    I stayed at one of the sites around the back which looks out at the mountains - not a bad view.

    $9 per day when I was there.

    Columbine Campground (NM)

    June 2025

    We had a blast staying here. 23 ft travel trailer Water from hydrants only, no connections, no dump, and they clean vault toilets Hiking trails from the campground Host was very knowledgeable and helpful

    Some sites are short, very few are level, some have a steep slope. Good shade and sun mix , mature trees, nice creek flows through the campground , it’s very pretty and relaxing. The loop to the left side near the host is more level and can handle bigger RVs but overall this is not a big rig campground. Some rigs could not get level…….

    Lots of places to explore nearby.

    We will stay again

    Angel Fire RV Resort

    Angel Fire RV Resort.

    RV resort. On the expensive side, but very nice park. Spacious sites, great views of surrounding mountains. All RVs must be self contained (kitchen, bathroom, shower, etc.). Free activities each night at club house. Close to Taos and various ski resorts in area.


Guide to Arroyo Hondo

RV campgrounds near Arroyo Hondo, New Mexico offer varied camping experiences at elevations ranging from 6,000 to 9,000 feet, with significant temperature fluctuations between day and night. The area sits at the convergence of the Rio Grande and Rio Hondo rivers, creating distinct microclimates throughout the region. Most RV parks operate year-round, though winter camping requires preparation for overnight temperatures that can drop below 20°F from November through March.

What to do

Riverside relaxation: At Questa Lodge & RV Resort, campers can enjoy a peaceful riverside setting. "Lovely duck and geese ponds and river walk, also dog park. Grounds are well-kept and healthy & green (lots of trees, shrubs, beautiful walk by river)," notes Mark M., who appreciated the natural environment.

Mountain biking trails: Eagle Nest area provides access to numerous mountain biking routes within 10-15 minutes of local campgrounds. "Eagle Nest Lake is literally across the road and a wonderful trail to walk or bike," mentions Rachel H. from Golden Eagle RV Park.

Local cultural exploration: Taos and surrounding communities offer numerous historic sites within 20 minutes of camp. "The Taos plaza is about 15 minutes away and there is plenty to do. We found an awesome restaurant in nearby Arroyo Hondo," reports Kristin S. who stayed at Taos Monte Bello RV Park.

What campers like

Mountain views: The vistas from campsites consistently receive high ratings. "Views were shockingly good. Because of the weather I felt like I was in the Scottish highlands or something, not New Mexico," shares PJ M. about his experience at Angel Nest RV Retreat.

River sounds: Water features provide natural white noise at several campgrounds. One camper at Questa Lodge noted, "My site backed up to the river and the sound of the rushing water was the perfect lullaby." Another camper commented, "We secured a spot on the water. Large pine trees, tiered spots, walking distance to the cute town of Red River."

Wildlife viewing: Many campers report regular deer sightings near their sites. "Deer come in every night," mentions Pamela R. who enjoyed watching wildlife during her stay. Local birds and waterfowl also frequent the camping areas, particularly at parks with ponds or river access.

What you should know

Connectivity challenges: Cell service and WiFi quality vary dramatically across the region. "The wifi (free) is REALLY spotty. I had very minimal luck just checking email. Forget about streaming anything. Just be prepared...there is NO cell service. Not a bar to be found," warns Reuben about Sierra Village Lodge & RV Park.

Elevation effects: The high altitude impacts both temperatures and physical comfort. Nighttime temperatures can drop 30-40 degrees below daytime highs, even in summer. Some campers report needing time to adjust to the elevation, particularly those arriving from lower altitudes.

Site layouts: RV sites at many parks feature unique configurations. At Taos Valley RV Park, "they have cleverly added angled dividers to maintain your privacy if you don't know your neighbors." Another camper described, "The sites are wide and angled enough to allow for great views!"

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Several campgrounds offer play areas for children. "There is a dump station, a dishwashing area, bathrooms with very hot showers, a playground, and office," notes Judy B. about Taos Valley RV Park & Campground.

Safety considerations: Entrance designs can impact vehicle clearance and safety. One visitor to LUXX - Taos RV Park noted, "The single entrance is a high center risk with lots of scrape marks from RV dragging." Always enter slowly and assess clearance before proceeding.

Local entertainment: Many campgrounds organize regular activities for guests. Golden Eagle RV Park offers "live music on Friday and Saturday nights, and a farmers market that set up on property on Wednesday." These events provide social opportunities without leaving the campground.

Tips from RVers

Leveling requirements: Sites at many area campgrounds require minimal adjustment. "The sites are level, decently spaced and easy to access," notes Vincent S. about Weathers RV Park, which provides "stable power, good water pressure and threaded sewer connectors."

Power considerations: Electrical service reliability can vary by campground. One camper reported, "We had 50 amp, full hookups and stayed for a week. Stable power, good water pressure and threaded sewer connectors." Another mentioned, "There are both full hookup sites and water and electric only sites; there is an RV dump."

Site selection strategy: When making reservations, consider proximity to facilities and noise sources. At Taos Valley RV Park, "Our site row backed up to an elementary school, so if you are there during the week and don't want to listen to children enjoying their recess, you should request another site."
