This is a great place to hang out on the weekend in Eastern New Mexico. The water is great and it's pretty clean lake. When the wind kicks up it can get pretty rough but overall nice. The grounds are well taken care of as well. I would recommend staying on the South side of the lake if you like it quiet, you can also find more "trees". Try to keep your elevation low because the wind always blows in New Mexico.
LegendThere are several separate CGs at Ute Lake. We stayed in Logan CG site 23, which was nearly perfectly level, for 5 days. There is no dump station at the Logan CG, the only dump station is near the main office, several miles back down the road. The restrooms were closed while we were here- not sure if that is seasonal or due to COVID. I did have to pick up 7 or 8 large, albeit old, piles of dog feces and a broken beer bottle right in the site and around the picnic table. I shouldn’t have to do that, but some people are just inconsiderate and nasty. The CG has is a trailhead for the 2.4 mile park nature walk. It’s a nice trail, with several lake viewing areas along it. Our dog didn’t encounter too many sand burrs on the trail, but be advised, the evil little things are everywhere else and imbed themselves in everything. The CG has fee for service WiFi, which is fairly pricey(e.g. 3-day unlimited, one device for$20, 5 GB and 3 devices for$30, etc.). They also offer 30 minutes per day for free, but I couldn’t get but a few KB/s on it. I didn’t buy the service, so I’m not sure how fast the paid service is. AT&T coverage was really good, with 4 Bars of LTE service and speeds up to 27 MB/s. Since there are few trees, satellite coverage is not an issue, so we didn’t try to get any OTA channels. There is a small grocery in Logan, but their selection is limited.
LegendTraveling the old familiar Route 66 time and time again I have found so many stops to enjoy. I try to make it a point to check out new places each time I pass to get a full perspective of what this strip of highway has to offer. Not always will you be able to stay in a classic roadside stop, but when you can get within throwing distance of one you have to jump on the opportunity.
The grass here is semi green the spaces are large enough to not be on top of your neighbor and the staff is friendly. I like that they have a grassy tent area with the signature KOA feel in the picnic structures and while you are in a semi desolate looking space, you feel that the area has a sense of community with a lot of retro trailers and rvs passing though on the same mission as you.
This seems to be an older KOA so some of the amenities, while nice are not as up to date as other campgrounds. I noticed this mostly in the playground, and while I am perfectly happy with the see-saws and older swing sets which remind me of my own childhood, I am sure to newer parents used to all things plastic and padded this is a nightmare waiting to happen.
The pool is not large but perfectly sized for a small group and is gated to protect it from being used by just anyone at the camp during any non-specific type of hour. It is, like at many KOA camps, seasonal so if you are wanting to take a dip, might call in advance to make sure you aren't there when it isn't open. The one thing that was a little strange to me was the height of the fence, a little tall and made me think they ave had issues with fence jumping previously, then again maybe it is just an extra precaution for insurance.
Nights here are pretty quiet and if you can get past the appearance of chainlink surrounding the property you have an amazing New Mexico sunset only a short distance from the old Neons of Route 66.
The sites themselves for tents come in 3 basic types, standard grassy sites with no improvements, pull thru sites with water and electric and group sites known as the tent village. The prices vary depending on type of site and location and for tent village I will recommend booking well in advance online because I tried on three different sets of dates and it always said NOT AVAILABLE. Average cost of camp however is between $28 and $35 before tax.
TIPS:
ScoutI stopped in about 830pm on my way to Arizona. Only person camping in the entire place. Super quiet. Only downside is the pit toilet was the only thing open. The actual bathrooms are closed for tbe winter. :(
LegendThis campground is beautiful. We are absolutely thrilled with the stunning lake and surrounding nature. We have everything we could need at our site, with water and electric hook ups (no sewer) and the bathrooms are excellent and include showers.
The outer loops provide like views. ATT & Verizon service work really well—and site provides 10 minutes of WiFi for free with the option to buy more WiFi. We have not tested this.
Sites are spaced out and it is relatively quiet, sparse, and again—stunning!
TravelerNice campground. If you fish there lots of lake to fish in. The restrooms could be cleaner, but if been in much worse. Bird watching is fantastic!
GuideAs we drove around the first more populated side of the lake the tent sites were not what we were looking for, good sites close to the water but the view was blocked by the trees. As we looked around we noticed there was South side so we decided to check it out. Wow!! The tent campsites were more secluded and the view of lake was gorgeous. They have electric hook ups, developed w/o electric. There are several little loops to check out with a vault bathroom close by.
ScoutGreat place to go in summer nice campground lake gets busy with boats on weekends
GuideUte Lake campground had nice large pull through sites, a shaded picnic area, and nice views of the lake. The playground was very nice and shaded. We were disappointed that the electrical hookups did not provide consistent output. We were unable to run our AC while the refrigerator was on, and the other camper we spoke to had the same issues. They do have showers but the flow is a hard diffuse spray that goes more out of the shower than in. You had to press a button and hold it down to have any water output, which made showering myself and my kids very challenging.
GuideBasic state park with water and electricity at many campsites. Quite a few local campers at the park. Ute Lake is a reservoir. There was not a campground host yet and the bathrooms were pretty messy. Beautiful sunsets!
LegendIf not for lack of facilities this would have been a nice camp spot. I would not make reservations and pay with reserveamerica because the camp ground will not be able to refund your money if you want to leave. Be very aware that there ARE NO FACILITIES open at this time. Call camp ground for further information. Pit toilets are very clean but no hand sanitizer. Please folks don’t smoke while you sit. That smoke can be severely deter mental to others
GuideThe staff are friendly and helpful. The bathrooms & showers are clean, spacious & heated. WiFi spotty but very enjoyable night.
GuideShort overnight at this clean KOA. We are still winterized, so we only used electric. Friendly staff. Spotty Wifi
GuideSmall dog run. Playground could use an update. Good water pressure. Level sites. Spread out decently. Gravel/dirt roads through site. Plenty of picnic tables. Constant strong hog/cattle farm smell untold winds turned.
TravelerSites are nice and level. Staff was friendly and made my kids feel right at home.
ScoutCan't give a ton of info here. We rolled in after hours, and like the guy on the phone said, my information was hung on the front door ready for me when I got there. Was able to get to my spot easily. Left before sun up, so can't say too much more.
GuideStaff is friendly but not helpful. Clean and warm restrooms despite the cold. We paid the extra to be on concrete. Pull thru pad was not level. Hookups were in several inches of mud and made the biggest mess. The view was beautiful and Tucumcari was a neat place to see but I would not recommend this KOA. I paid too much for such a disappointment.
ScoutWe pulled in after dark. Staff had all of our reservation paperwork and provided a site map with the route to our spot. There was a forecasted freeze tonight so everyone had to run off tanks, but they allowed us to fill our fresh tank, so all was well.
ScoutPeople where polite. Campground was well kept and the facilities where clean. Perfect stay
GuideThis is a great park. The park was clean can’t wait to come back.
TravelerA nice campground right off the highway. We stayed on a new site toward the back of the campground. Less highway noice. Nice view of the mountain near Tucumcari and great grill. They look to be working hard to improving this campground. Saw people working diligently well into the late afternoon/evening on improvement projects.
GuideGranted it was no one's fault that many of the trees had their leaves blown off, but it made for a very warm, non-shaded spot for the night! Restrooms very clean and stocked. Small store was nice and you could also order take-out from their small onsite restaurant.
GuideGreat facility . What a gem! We stayed at the new pull through sites on the back of the property. Full hook up. Great Mountain View. Well kept and super friendly hosts. Clean bathrooms and showers. A wonderful find .
ScoutHas showers and they’re warm!
GuideReally nice KOA. Good views, quiet, some of the cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen. The grass is well tended and makes for good tent spots.
GuideSpent one night here in mid may. Pretty nice, good clean bathouse. Sites are close but seems everyone was just staying one night. Everything worked including cable. Has semi covered picnic tables that looked good. They were actually pouring concrete pads in a new addition but existing pads are gravel. Helpful staff, easy check in.
