Best Campgrounds near Kirtland, NM

Campgrounds are gorgeous. If you’re in the lumi loop you’re a walk to the camp store. Bathrooms are close by. The all you can eat pancakes for $10 is a pretty good steal. Staying here makes for an easy morning before some ranger led tours. The park is big. If you have the option to stay here, stay here

There's only 12 spots, but I haven't had any problems getting a spot. And usually people who come there don't stay the night. If you come during the day, you'll probably easily find a spot and the views are gorgeous.

Spent the night in an actual campground after several nights out in dispersed sites. Facilities were clean and well kept. Showers hot! Big 1/2 acre dog park that was also well kept and included obstacles for extra play. Staff was very friendly. Early season but there were already a few other campers and the cabins were full.

Very nice RV / Cabin / Tent resort in Durango, CO. Full service, laundry facilities, pickleball court, grills in the public area, pool during summer months. We chose a mountain view site, which does have lovely views, but the reason for the review title is it is directly above the freeway and we needed earplugs for the traffic noise. Amending to note it is a very well-maintained RV=tent/cabin park, clean restrooms, clearly marked laundry, friendly staff.

The campground hadn’t officially opened yet, all the facilities were closed.. First come first serve. Arrived on a Tuesday. Camp sites clean with bear boxes at almost all the sites. A group of Mule Deer hanging around

A big Campground south of Durango and 15 miles outside of Farmington, NM. We’re here before the season starts but there’s a huge amount of Houseboats on the water at the marina so I’ll assume it’s very active in warmer summer weather. We’re in a 30’ Class C and we fit ok but our site and maybe others are just a bit too close to each other. There is a strong Verizon signal so we can receive internet that way and our Dish Satellite worked well also. There is no over the air tv signal. The little involvement with Park personnel was very nice. Marina in. bar and Restaurant were not open yet. Guessing May 1 for that? We would come back again.. between the lake, fishing, hiking nearby Indian ruins this is a sweet place to unwind and have fun

Stayed here for about a week while we visited Chaco Canyon and Valley of Dreams. This is a good camp site and does fill up quickly. We got there at 10:30 pm on a Thursday and we were lucky enough to grab the last spot.

We didn't stay at this campsite, but it was one we were considering for this adventure and I'm really glad we decided on a different one because we did drive down the road that this is on and it was rough. Our 30ft tow behind would have been completely rearranged. However there were a couple brave vans parked there.

Campground is a bit more than 5 miles down the smoothest dirt road we’ve ever traveled. Clean vault toilets and covered picnic tables at some sites. Fantastic views.

Very nice! Clean bathrooms and picnic tables. Flat parking lot.

Morefield Campground, located just inside Mesa Verde National Park, offers a convenient and scenic basecamp for exploring the park’s incredible ancient cliff dwellings and stunning landscapes. The campground is spacious and well-organized, with over 250 sites that accommodate tents, RVs, and trailers. The setting is peaceful, with sweeping views of mesas and easy access to trails like the Point Lookout Trail.

Amenities are a highlight here, including flush toilets, showers, a well-stocked camp store, and even a fuel station. It’s an excellent choice for families or those who appreciate a few comforts while camping.

However, campers should be prepared for sudden and severe weather. The high desert location can bring intense storms with strong winds. During our stay, our tent nearly flew away despite being staked down securely, so it’s worth bringing extra gear like sandbags or heavy-duty stakes to keep your setup anchored.

Overall, Morefield Campground is an excellent choice for exploring Mesa Verde, combining convenient amenities with a beautiful natural setting. Just keep an eye on the weather and pack accordingly to ensure a comfortable stay.
