Several RV parks provide options for camping within a 30-mile radius of Llano, New Mexico. Taos Valley RV Park offers concrete pads for larger vehicles with full hookups available at most sites, while Taos Monte Bello RV Park accommodates big rigs with 50-amp electrical service and sewer connections. "Very nice RV resort! Full hookup, concrete level pads, huge pull thru sites, great for large rigs," notes a visitor about Angel Fire RV Resort, which features premium amenities including tennis courts and a clubhouse. LUXX - Taos RV Park provides electric hookups and allows pets, though the campground has restrictions on fires and lacks 30-amp service, making it less suitable for certain motorhome configurations.
Santa Fe Skies RV Park operates year-round with 97 sites offering both 30-amp and 50-amp service. During winter months, temperatures drop significantly at higher elevation parks, requiring proper winterization and heated water hoses. Most RV parks in the area require advance reservations during peak seasons, especially summer and fall. Cell service varies considerably; some travelers report spotty LTE coverage while others mention adequate connections for remote work. Many parks charge separately for electricity on longer stays. Dump stations are available at most locations, though some campgrounds like Roadrunner RV Park primarily accommodate self-contained units without offering shower facilities. According to one visitor, "The road up to the campground is bumpy! First paved road we have ever been on that was washboard."
"This location is so prime for visiting all the sights in Taos, and there are many. The campground is compact but still, private."
"Much more vegetation than you would expect from a campground close to town. The staff are friendly. The facilities were clean. The park is older but in an charming New Mexico way."
"Dog friendly, with a small dog park to boot. Easy in and out, hooks ups and wifi. Manager on site and very attentive. We stayed April 1 for one night, was quiet, friendly and comfortable."
"Congrats for getting the most important things done first: full hook up sites, clean, new bathrooms with roomy showers."

TravelerGreat view out our window. Great place to just sit and vegetate or explore the area of Red River NM. Weather is mild in the summer but cold in the fall and winter. Sites aren’t level but manageable in an Rv if you’re prepared for it.
GuideCamping spots are close and tight. But nice to be on the grounds of Ojo Caliente Resort
TravelerSome light highway noise, I was in the back of the campground and it did not bother me at all. Somewhat undeveloped with dirt roads, but able to get around easily, they seem to maintain them well, but I was here after some decent rain so of course they were a little bit rough. Employees are friendly and helpful and I very much enjoyed my stay even though this is an unusual place for me to be, I usually would rather boondock or stay at less developed campgrounds :) not many people here at this time of year so more to my liking that way.
Full hook ups all appear to be at the front of the campground with quite a few RVs there. Easy to get to Santa Fe to enjoy things there, less than a 20 minute drive. They also have a very nice small hiking loop at the back of the campground, my dog very much enjoyed it! (and I did too)
TravelerThere is so much construction. And there seems to be a construction war between the travel center and the tribe. The travel center is truly bad. It is NOT a travel center. The buffet at the casino sounds delicious, but there is.no where to wait for Friday. I don't need hook-ups. I just needed a travel center. And I don't want to get fully dressed for a casino everyday. Thus thw ine star. And don't use google maps to get here. It takws you through a lot of unnecessary construction zones.
GuideGreat views of lake and surrounding mountains. Washrooms are very clean with great showers
GuideGarbage around sight, Dog crap & hardware in driveway, very uneven parking, 2 sets of leveling blocks didn't get it level! Glad I'm just here one night! Site 49R guess that's why it's Cheap $15 + 20 for outta state, with electric
GuideExpensive.. nice facility… I stayed 2 nights.. needed to use the laundry.. wash machines are super tiny and $3.25 a pop… I used 3 and 1 didn’t dispense enough water. Then another $3.25 for the dryer… at least it was big. People are friendly.
TravelerAwesome campground at one of the nicest hot springs you’ll ever visit. Great farm to table restaurant and wine bar. New Mexico at its best.
Scout**Wonderful Stay and Great Customer Service!**
We had a really nice experience at Rancheros de Santa Fe! We originally booked one of the domes, but due to damage from the recent rain, we were upgraded to a cabin. The ladies at the front office were so friendly, welcoming, and helpful. They really made us feel taken care of. The cabin was very clean, cozy, and comfortable, which made our stay even better. The bathrooms were also very clean and well-maintained, which is something I really appreciate when traveling. I also loved that our cabin was located right behind the main office. Since it was just my girlfriend and me traveling together, being so close to the office gave us an extra sense of safety and peace of mind. Even though our original plans changed, everything worked out great. We really appreciated the hospitality and how accommodating the staff was. I would definitely recommend Rancheros de Santa Fe and would love to stay here again!

Mountain views: Many campgrounds offer panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. "The park is older but in a charming New Mexico way. They have funky wooden shade structures at some of the sites.
