The Ortiz Mountains and enchanting Cerrillos Hills surround us. Our stars shine brighter than most, and coyote songs will remind you that you're dwelling amongst the high desert wildlife. The 1 3/4 mile road to Little Dancing Horse Ranch is not for everyone. I will reiterate this a couple of times in this listing to make sure people understand that we live on a rocky, dirt road. Some folks find it not to be a big deal while others do. Most vehicles most of the time can make it fine if it's taken slowly although high clearance vehicles are ideal. During the rare big rain or snow, 4 wheel drive may be needed. It's advisable to check the weather in advance.
$45 - $68 / night

LegendSpots are a little tight. All the KOA amenities. Pool,playground, store and cabins.
GuideWe stayed here twice on our trip. Both were great stays. The site is spotless and the security (urban location) is excellent. The bathrooms/showers were likewise very clean and there was plenty of hot water. We didn't use the pool or the laundry, but they were also well maintained. We would definitely stay here again.
GuideThis KOA is in a seemingly not ideal part of town, next to an interstate and that has A LOT more asphalt than trees... And my kids loved every second of it!
Jump pad, play ground, mini golf and a really nice pool (that stays opens until 9 am) were the highlights. Clean, modern and convenient showers were pluses for Mom and Dad.
15 minutes from the Sandia Air tram, 20 minutes from the airport. Friendly staff. Wind was pretty intense at night on our visit so I'd recommend pulling your awnings in when you go to bed. Interstate noise could be an issue if you're not running ac/fan.
Legend
Great staff. Clean park. Second time here. Better than most KOAs.
LegendOne of the nicer KOAs but still a KOA. Sites are close together. Friendly staff and clean/organized campground. Close to highway but easy in/out. Some smaller trees have branches that can damage your rig so be mindful of the space above as you navigate through the sites.
TravelerSecure campground, nice site, clean restrooms, plenty of activities for kids.
Traveler
Easy access and decent site for tents. A little old, and I recommend spring to fall for tents. Winter Temps get down to 16 degrees F. Great for RVs though, and usually full.
TravelerI like the campground, clean, well organized, the missing two stars are not because of the campground, but because of it's location.
1. It is not in a great part of town.
2. It is right off I-40, very convenient, but very noisy.
And then there is the traffic on I-40, ugh.
We'll stay there again, it is a very nice facility, and works very well for an overnight. The location just isn't my favorite.
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.
GuideThe park is very nice and clean. Everyone I talked with was very polite and helpful. I will stay here again. Very close to the Balloon Park, Albuquerque and the town of Bernalillo. The only concern was my AC would not fully power up, it seemed not enough amps. The previous park was fine and the park we are at now it works fine. Not sure of the cause. Park was fully booked, may have added to this. Excellent WiFi and cell phone connection (Verizon)
GuideCampsites are level full hook ups. Nice people they have Wi-Fi nice bathrooms there’s a really great grocery store downtown called the B St., Café. It was $36 if I paid cash and that was with a 10% discount
Traveler
Got site number 6, which has the best view to the SE. The site has a tent shelter which was much needed for the high winds experienced at night. The pit toilet was clean. The deer were abundant. A hiking trail was close. And the views were fantastic.
Traveler
We stayed in the camping area near the trailhead. Very green and lush with deer visiting our site at dusk!
LegendExtremely clean, well organized, nice sites, lots of trees. 4 dog walks. Only drawback. The pool is not heated. So they lost a star.
TravelerI’ve been here a couple times. The site itself is in a really nice area with lots of pine trees and direct trail access. The only issue is it seems a lot of people who come here don’t know camp etiquette and leave the sites completely trashed. Fire pits buried and unusable, beer cans and trash everywhere. I’d recommend going before Memorial Day while the sites are still clean
LegendOk KOA conveniently located. Bathtub is good. Wifi was not working. Comfortable option but overall pricey for what you get.
RangerLarge sites. Very clean bathrooms and showers. Convenient location. Friendly staff.
TravelerThis is a great location to test out some camping gear and/or explore camping for newbies.
The site is clean, well-maintained, and managed. The staff is very friendly and helpful!
A grocery/general store is nearby for anything you may have forgotten. I would highly recommend it and look forward to coming here again.
RangerWe stayed here one night traveling through NM. The sites were tight (typical KOA). Everything was clean and the folks were friendly. Easy in and out. Would stay here again for an overnight.
TravelerGreat and friendly staff. Very clean campground, bathrooms and showers. Next to I-40 so easy access in and out. Road noise wasn’t bad but we have thermal covers on windows and our rig is well insulated.
GuideSuper clean, super friendly and close to everything! A little traffic noise but not bad since so close to highway. Very safe.
GuideThe trip to Capilla Peak camp is not for the faint of heart. You'll be traveling on a one-lane gravel and dirt track to 9200 feet above MSL, but once you get there, it's worth the journey. On a weeknight in August I had the entire campground to myself.
A couple of the eight sites have wooden awnings which are great on windy days. There is also a pavilion for group gatherings. All of the sites have fire rings and picnic tables. There isn't a place to park a trailer in the camp itself, but there are spots at the top of the driveway. I wouldn't bring a trailer up here anyway.
Easy access to the Crest Trail and the hike to Osha Peak is an easy two miles. Past Osha Peak you enter a pretty nasty burn scar and the trail becomes harder to follow. Hardly any people but tons of deer to keep you company!
LegendCalled them up first thing this morning. Sandy the gal on the desk got us set up quickly. Only draw back to this place is the sites are very tight.
ScoutThe campground is clean, the sites are well groomed with camp pads level. Lots of trees for shade. There are 2 areas, on for tents and 1 for RV’s. The people who run the campground are very nice and accommodating.
