Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Cibola National Forest and Grasslands

This is one of the places to camp in New Mexico

Solid RV-focused campground. Half under trees and half in the open. Two bathhouses, laundry, and a dog park make this a nice, safe place to spend a couple of days.

We just spent a couple of nights here. Enjoyed our site, very level. Nice dog park and walking trail. Would of liked to of heard the music tomorrow night, but alas we have to get home.

All sites have full hookups and most are pull through. There are two fenced in dog parks. While it seemed close to I40 you could not hear the traffic. Showers and laundry as well. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Great 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!

We stayed 2 nights there when nothing around was available. When I called the young lady was very helpful getting us a spot. The sites are tight and are terraced up a hill. Nice dog park. We were thankful to get a spot at a busy time.

Nice back in sites are wide with vegetation and patios. The dog park and walking trail are handy. The views are special and there was musical entertainment one night at the club patio. The gravel sites and driveway was a bit dusty, otherwise this would be 5 star park.

A well organized park by a helpful staff. The pull-through sites are easily assessable and long enough for an F250 w/30’ travel trailer and not be detached. The park is clean and quaint. *Pet friendly but doesn’t allow “outside pet cages, kennels, or pet fencing” probably because they don’t want the dogs outside alone. Overall, and it being the first time visit I would recommend American RV Resort.@

Great place in a beautiful wooded hillside southwest of Santa Fe about 15 mins or so. They have a pool, a small dog park and a great little hiking trail with good views of the surrounding mountains. Nice facilities, a small store and a laundry mat make it a great place to explore Santa Fe and the surrounding area.

Great location just outside of Santa Fe, super easy to get to off of I-25. Bathrooms are clean and showers are comfortable. Everything is well maintained and the dog park is a massive plus if you have pups. There’s a little road noise, but not bad, and definitely worth it for ease of use. Would recommend!

The owners are super kind, firstly. Our site was great. Pull through and shady. Neighbors were nice and we had a great stay with a great sunset. There’s a small dog park that was perfect for what we needed. They sell snacks and small things if you need to grab a small missing item. We didn’t use the pool or showers, but they looked fine.

I was a little hesitant to reserve this place after I saw the last review. I’m so glad I did. Here are some of the amazing aspects of Santa Fe Skies.

1. Mountain View’s
2. Awesome sculpture art
3. Walking trains (w/ doggie bags)
4. Fenced dog park!!
5. All the needs - electric, water, wifi
6. CONTACTLESS CHECK-IN!! I paid online and checked in, online. (COVID friendly)

All around great spot.

This is exactly how I thought this park would be. If you want green grass and paved sites, then this place is not for you. But if you want something creative and beautiful, with wonderful vistas, then stop here for a few days.

The Wi-Fi was surprisingly fast and the staff was so nice. There are metal art pieces throughout the park, and a great dog park. 

I can’t wait to come back!

There is not a bad site in this park that we could tell. All are level, spacious, and have a concrete patio. Wifi was strong enough for streaming at site 18. Nice trail around entire park for dog walks. Also a dog park. They have a solar array so assume this is supporting at least part of the park’s electrical needs. Laundry runs off of credit card which I prefer to coins. Clubhouse and outdoor patio look nice but did not use. Metal sculptures and collection of various vintage trucks and other implements are interesting. Convenient location only 20 minutes to plaza.

Stopped for one night when passing thru. This is a small, beautiful little RV park. No one was there when we arrived, but the owner came by later to welcome us. He was very friendly and accommodating. There is a spacious dog park that my pups enjoyed. Right off the interstate but the noise was minimal. No frills (ie no bathhouse) but it was totally adequate for our needs and felt very safe. Highly recommend if you need to stop for the evening.

First longer stop (3 nights) on our cross country trip. 22 ft trailer, sewer hook ups, Koa worker leads you to your spot, which was nice. Fence between campsites gives some privacy. Great dog park area and playground for 2 yr old. Everyone we interacted with was nice and helpful. Laundry is clean: $3 washer, $1.59 dryer— need 2 runs on the dryer. 18 minute drive into downtown Santa Fe. Did the grasshopper canyon trail 9 minutes away, pecos national historic monument 30 minutes and Bandelier national monument 50 minutes.

A well laid out RV park! Your GPS will take you to the front of the 66 Casino. You will keep driving west on service rood past Casino parking lot. On west end turn left and go straight back to gated entrance to RV park. The park has a pool, club hose group BBQ area, several bathrooms, showers, laundry rooms, several fence in dog parks, most sites are pull through concrete level slabs sites with tables and fire pits at all sites. You get a card key to open gate for after hours and club house. High water pressure so pressure regulator highly recommended and sold in check in office. There is a $25 security fee that is returned to your credit card after checking out.

The site is one of the best handicap accessible sites I've seen. The bathrooms are large and indoors, ac'd and well placed. Showers had a padded fold down bench. Standard problem of being long and narrow but a little wider than most. Unable to access pet area(curb) but could let dogs in to run just could be in there with them or do clean up.
