Best RV Parks & Resorts near Aztec, NM

RV parks near Aztec, New Mexico support a range of RV and camper site setups. Ruins Road RV Park offers full hookups with 50-amp service and level gravel sites that accommodate larger rigs. "We are traveling with a young, timid dog so asked for a large space. She gave us an end space with no shade and no grass; however, we have a nice view of the trees along the Animas River," noted one visitor. Moore's RV Park & Campground provides electric, water, and sewer hookups with sites that can handle big rigs, while The Working Mans RV Park in nearby Kirtland features 50-amp service specifically designed for larger motorhomes. The Little Park, though smaller with only five sites, offers water, electric, and sewer connections for self-contained RVs.

While some parks offer luxury amenities, others focus on basic functionality for overnight or extended stays. Most RV parks in the region maintain gravel pads that may require leveling blocks in certain sites. Cell service varies by location, with Ruins Road RV Park reporting good Verizon coverage. Several parks operate year-round, though seasonal closures affect some facilities between November and March. Payment options differ between parks—Ruins Road accepts only cash or check. Dump stations are available at most parks with full hookups, while McGee Park RV Camping between Farmington and Bloomfield offers a dump station for its 574 electric and water sites. Pets are generally welcome at RV parks throughout the area, though specific restrictions may apply at certain locations.

    Outback RV

    Small, laid back campground with full hookups

    This is a small campground, only 8 sites, outside of Cortez, CO with easy access to Mesa Verde National Park and to Cortez for supplies.  It is a gravel lot with each site being a pull through; big rig friendly (45'x75').  There are shared covered picnic tables.  Full hookups with 20/30/50 electric.  We had good AT&T cell coverage.  The property is surrounded by BLM land and close to Phil's World with bike trails.  It is centrally located for all of the areas attractions: Mesa Verde, Canyons of the Ancients, Hovenweep, Telluride, Durango (Durango to Silverton scenic train).  There are weekly and monthly rates which reduces the nightly rate.  The owner, Bill, was very nice and even stopped by with local brochures and maps.  We will definitely stop here again when out this way.

    Morefield Campground — Mesa Verde National Park

    Great place to explore Mesa Verde National Park

    This is a good-sized campground consisting of several different one-way paved loops for access. Most of the sites are back in but there are some pull throughs. There are a mix of tent and RV camping sites. Flush toilet restrooms are available and there are showers and a laundry a few miles away where the café, store, and gas station are located. Each campsite has a picnic table and fire ring that can also be used for grilling. One section provides full hookups but most of the sites are for dry camping. There are several dump stations with fresh water available in the park. The information on the campground indicates 30 feet as the maximum size but some sites will accommodate rigs to 40 feet. Most of the sites are pretty level and are typically grass but a few have gravel. The area consists of small oak trees but only a few sites have shade. Our Verizon and AT&T hotspots did not work in the campground. Cell service was spotty and that was true through the national park. There is wifi in the campground that was pretty good most of the time. Good enough for email but not usually enough for streaming.

    Mancos State Park Campground

    Great small lake

    Mancos State Park has no-wake boating and is well-known for fishing, especially rainbow trout, a few brownies and yellow perch. There are 33 campsites on two sides of the lake, plus two all-season yurts. During the winter, it is a great place to use as a base for cross country skiing.

    It is near the La Plata range to the east, and Mesa Verde National Park to the southwest. Durango is about 45 minutes to the east, and the City of Cortez about 25 minutes to the west. Telluride ski resort is about a two-hour drive. Both Cortez and Durango are full-service cities, with multiple supermarkets, other chains, etc. The town of Mancos, about a 12-minute drive from the park, has a full-service sit-down restaurant/bakery, a natural foods store, other restaurants, a community grocery store, shops, modern library and other amenities.

    The park adjoins the San Juan National Forest, including multiple hiking trails, the Chicken Creek cross country ski area, the Sawtooth and Millwood trails, and other trails. The nearby forest (about a mile up the road) has dispersed camping as well as organized campgrounds accessible by a paved road.

    There also is a dude ranch next to the park, and the approximate 1-mile trail around the park takes hikers over some beautiful scenery. There are no corrals, but horses are allowed on specific trails.

    None of the campsites currently have water or electric hookups, but potable water is available at several connections on the east (main) side of the park. While there is no public WiFi, cell signals are strong.

    Oasis RV Resort and Cottages

    Nice site layout; Enjoyable stay! - THIS IS NOT KOA! NOW CALLED OASIS RV

    CUSTOMER SERVICE: Friendly staff; shuffled our stay around so we could extend and not relocate during the week. 

    WIFI/ CELL SERVICE: Camp wifi and speed seemed to work really well! I could use email and stream videos with no delay; however we used a hot spot for work calls to be more clear, but their wifi probably could have been fine to do so. 2 of 4 bars AT&T but calls came in fine throughout the entire park. 

    SITE: Pretty campground layout. Love the"S" curved pull thru sites. We had an"S" shaped site with nice privacy and ease of arriving and leaving because of design. The sites all seemed to be nicely spaced from one another and private even though you are nearby. There were some views and there were a few pretty fall trees and a vacant pasture to look at while sitting at the picnic table. A small creek flows along the edge of site 23. Full hookup; level site; heated water so didn't have to worry about pipes freezing during stay; fire pit; grill; full sun site; rock roads but well maintained and not too dusty; light road noise. I'm sure the sites closer to the highway are louder near the campground entrance; no bugs in October that we experienced. 

    OTHER: Nearby Walmart and shopping center. About 20 min drive from Historic Downtown; about 5 minutes from Anytime Fitness gym. Laundry room was small and they didn't clean our clothes very well, but it was kept clean.

    La Mesa RV Park

    Does The Job

    We stayed here using Passport America discount on our way to Albuquerque. 

    The park is a very basic RV park in the town of Cortez. There is quite a bit of road noise as to be expected in a town. It seemed a bit rundown but not awful. There were some long time residents living there. 

    The guy (owner? manager?) who came out to meet us when we pulled in was very nice and gave us a lot of tips on things to do in the area. It is only 8 miles to Mesa Verde National Park so a great place to stay if you want to check that out. He gave us a list of other things in the area as well. Very knowledgable and friendly. 

    There was one washer and dryer for a laundry room that shuts down at night. There are dumpsters for garbage but no recycling. The sites are full hook ups with pull through and back in available and they can accommodate big rigs. Each site had a picnic table as well. Overall a convenient place to stay if you want to check out Mesa Verde or are just traveling through. 

    Good cell reception ATT and Verizon and the park offers Wifi.

    Sundance RV Park

    Very nice and simple little park right in the middle of Cortez

    Neat and tidy and friendly. This park is in the middle of Cortez, so you literally drive through"historic downtown Cortez" to get there and pull into it right off the main street. That's a little unusual. The park itself is a simple layout; the typical racecourse layout. An oval with sites on both sides as you drive around. The pull through lots are in the middle, of course, and that's where we stayed. When we arrived, we were greeted nicely and directed to our site. Pulled right in, and all the hook ups were in reasonable spots, making our set up easy. We did have to use ONE block on our front passenger tire to keep from hanging by our jack, so I wouldn't say the site was 100% level. Enough room to easily park our rig(29' 3") and our tow vehicle, a Honda Fit. Everything worked fine: water, sewer, electric. Did not use the cable TV that was available, and never even tried the wi-fi. My cell signal was strong enough(middle of town) that I just used a hot spot for the little bit of Netflix streaming we did that evening. The campground is spartan but nice. My only gripes, really, are that the sites are quite close together, and it's near enough to the main street that you do hear some traffic at night. You don't forget you have neighbors. But we'd still recommend this spot.

    La Plata County Fairgrounds

    Bare minimums but good location

    This is a small area at the fairgrounds that has space for 6 RVs. All of the sites are back in with 30 amp power and a shared water connection. There are no sewer connections but there are several dump stations in town. There are no showers or restrooms. The sites are gravel and pretty level. Our Verizon and AT&T hotspots both worked well and cell service was good. There is what looks like a maintenance area behind the campground so there was traffic back and forth most of the day that kicked up some dust. It was also a bit noisy. The Durango to Silverton train runs right next to the fairgrounds and that can be a bit noisy too. The Animas River trail is within walking distance. There is also a town trolley service that will take you into the main part of town. The weekends can have events going on which could make it a bit tight to get in and out with your RV. Overall, this was an ok place for a few days but it is certainly nothing fancy. It was very affordable though.

    Alpen Rose RV Park

    Nice park, but not fond of the "big rig sites" A-B

    Very nice campground overall and staff is very nice as well. Its only aboht 15 minutes from the Durango train, which was awesome, and has nice ammenities, though the cafe and pool are closed now (oct). Its a pretty expensive park...big rigs are regularly 79.00 and they did discount it 8.00 per night for off season, but all the big rig sites line up along the entrance/exit and people are arriving as late as 8pm which is really obnoxious when your eating dinner listening to rig after rig and car after car. Also, not all big rig sites are created equal. All are buddy sites, so you can face a friend, and all but ours (A-B) have a nice grass area...we have gravel and are closer to "our buddy" who we dont happen to know...the picnic tables are basically next to each other. We would come back, but would take a back in next time so we arent so close to the entrance.


Guide to Aztec

RV campgrounds near Aztec, New Mexico range from fairground settings to more intimate parks with varying accommodations. Most campgrounds in this high desert region sit at elevations between 5,500-6,500 feet, creating mild summer temperatures with cool nights. Winter camping options remain available at select year-round facilities, though water systems may be winterized during the coldest months.

What to do

Visit archaeological sites: The Moore's RV Park & Campground makes an excellent base camp for exploring the region's ancient ruins. "After two days roughing it in the wilderness with no facilities, Moore's was a great place to pitch a tent, take a shower and relax in a chair in the shade before heading to Durango," reports camper Doven P.

Hot springs access: Stay at Westerly RV Park for direct access to thermal waters. "Right across the road from formerly called Trimble hot springs," notes Nathan B. This positioning allows campers to enjoy natural hot springs after a day of exploring without additional driving.

Fishing opportunities: Several campgrounds provide access to the Animas River and nearby ponds. "I am camped between a pond and a river. Otherwise it is a gravel parking lot," explains Shawn at San Juan McGee Park RV Camping, highlighting the fishing access despite the basic accommodations.

What campers like

Shade availability: In the high desert climate, shade trees are highly valued. "The sites are nice and wide and many have large trees for nice shade, but some don't and have full sun," explains Melody M. about Moore's RV Park, adding that they offer "a site for large tenting groups."

Spacious sites: Campers frequently mention appreciating room to spread out. "The crushed stone sites were spacious & level. There was no lawn, but, that's not to be expected in high desert New Mexico," notes Todd L. about his experience at Moore's campground, appreciating the realistic expectations for the climate.

Clean facilities: Well-maintained bathrooms rank high on camper priorities. "The bathrooms were clean. Spots were pretty close together but over all perfect for overnight stay," reported Rosalie H. after staying at Moore's RV Park, indicating the trade-off between site spacing and facility cleanliness.

What you should know

Bathroom maintenance varies: Quality and cleanliness of facilities fluctuate between campgrounds and seasons. "We were there for 3 nights. On the arrival day, two of the women's toilets had no toilet paper and one seat had feces on it," reports Dick S. about Moore's RV Park, noting that despite complaints, "after 3 days and numerous calls the men's bathroom only got worse."

Limited tent options: Many RV parks in the region primarily accommodate motorhomes with few dedicated tent sites. At McGee Park, one camper noted: "We were trying to find something before the sun went down and stopped here, but ended up moving on as they didn't have tent sites that we were interested in and we wanted a bit more seclusion."

Monthly-only restrictions: Some parks cater to long-term stays exclusively. The Working Mans RV Park is "a very well maintained and clean basic rv park. The only amenities are sewer water and electricity," according to Matthew W., making it suitable for workers but less ideal for vacationers.

Tips for camping with families

Pool availability: Summer heat makes swimming options valuable. "The pool was amazing and refreshing. The bathrooms had a code to get in and were clean. There were lots of families around," shares Emily C. about her experience at Moore's RV Park & Campground.

Dedicated recreation areas: Mesa Verde RV Resort offers "a playground, pool, pond, dog walk area," according to Jared T. Another visitor, Lauren N., adds: "The putt putt was fun and the playground area was very well maintained."

Dog-friendly options: For families traveling with pets, dedicated dog areas make a difference. "There is a very nice dog run and exercise area. They also have a trout pond," notes Ronald about Alpen Rose RV Park, adding that "there were lots of dogs, but everyone kept them quiet."

Tips from RVers

Electrical reliability: Check power pedestals upon arrival. One camper at Westerly RV Park warns: "These people had pedestals with faulty wiring. Fried my $300 surge protector. Told me they couldn't move us to another site because they had several bad pedestals."

Site selection strategy: At many campgrounds, location within the park significantly affects experience. "All the big rig sites line up along the entrance/exit and people are arriving as late as 8pm which is really obnoxious when your eating dinner listening to rig after rig and car after car," cautions Kloee S.

Small park advantages: The Little Park offers just five sites with 30-amp service, water, and sewer for self-contained RVs. Its limited capacity means less traffic and noise compared to larger facilities, creating a quieter experience for those seeking tranquility.
