"CAMPGROUND REVIEW: Turquoise Trail Campground, Cedar Crest, NM
Turquoise Trail Campground is a small privately owned campground located five miles north of I-40 off Route 14 (exit 175) just outside"
"We arrived around 6pm and our info was thumb tacked to the entry board. Call her and she comes right down to show you your spot. It’s located next to a little brewery and pizza place."
"I got here after dark on my drive from the west coast to NC. There were a couple of other campers at the front of the entrance. I did a little off-roading and drove deeper in for privacy."
"Can make it up to camp with 2 wheel drive low clearance. Maybe some minor scraping as you leave/arrive over a bit of a rough ramp lip."

"Staying at Isleta Lakes has convenient access to the city of Albuquerque while staying a bit more secluded. The lakes provide a nice walking trail and the staff are helpful."
"We live in Albuquerque and wanted to try something close to home. This was a nice park located next to a lake that can be fished with a license."
"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."
"We walked to the brewery next door and made good use of the dog parks."
ScoutThis campground is amazing, very clean, friendly staff, many amenities.
GuideA lot of cars are going in and out, but the sites are well kept and tons of space
ScoutGreat hosts with a great site and plans in progress to make it even greater.
TravelerPROS: Beautifull mountains, very close to pretty much any supplies you need. It is easily accessible with large RV(25'+). Cons: very dirty, large trash. Others are close also.
GuidePlenty of space to find a camp site from right off the road to venture back farther . Good cell service some tv stations . Lots of off road trails for dirt bikes and ATV . How ever lots of trash around not just blown in trash but trash brought out and dumped . So look around and choose you area accordingly. Not a lot of shad either .
GuideWe stayed one night while traveling to North Dakota. Woke up in the morning to a heard of wild horses moving through the area. Google/Apple directions should not be used, they take you to a locked gate.
ScoutA dispersed site that has space yet well shaped. Sits atop a hill on three sides. Great fire pit for when campfires are allowed
TravelerEnjoyed being able to easily access this dispersed camp ground. Lots of available space and only about a 15min drive into Downtown, Santa Fe.
Lots of trash upon entering, however continue further along and it isn't so bad.
ScoutClean, spacious campground. Bathrooms not too far
