Best Glamping near Peña Blanca, NM

If Jacks Creek campsite is all booked, this is the next one you should try. Iron gate is ok too but it’s a lot longer drive than you think and might need all wheel drive since the road to Iron gate gets bit tricky road every now and then. Holy! This campsite offered me a lot more than I expected! Nice trail heads nearby (not only one) and each campsite was spaced out well enough so you still get a privacy. Of course the site by the creek gets filled first. Be aware of skunks! Do not leave food unattended and keep your dogs under control ;) Overall, a decent campsite but only 3 in nation but I would give 4 in New Mexico!

Super cute little bus! We ended up staying during a rainy weekend, and my tiny Prius C made it up and down the trail twice, albeit very slowly. Definitely bring a 4wd or high clearance vehicle if you can help it, because it wasn't easy. Definitely worth it though. Great view of the hills and mountains from every direction. 

We didn't realize that there was a van/RV site on the lot as well, and that the outhouse was shared with it. Given the current circumstances, we were a little nervous since we could audibly hear our neighbors coughing, but we all kept our distance. 

When we arrived, there was water available for us on the bus, as well as instructions for the appliances and outhouse. There was plenty of space on the bus to spread out(and I had two kids on a rainy weekend), and it's charmingly decorated. The host does have dogs that roam, and are friendly for the most part. One dog is a little more excitable than the other, and did spook my daughter. 

We got plenty of exercise and beautiful views walking on the dirt road. Only 5 minutes from Madrid, which is magical if you've never been before.

At first you think oh no, it’s just a parking lot. You pull into your periphery space because you did reserve, and as you set up, you realize that all in front of your door there is open space. Trees, wild flowers. Maybe the stream.

The other campers come here as often as they can. They have discovered nirvana.

Your day trips can be to the nicest little town with restaurants and shops so you can feel life after covid resuming. They can include fields of wild flowers more than halfway deep to your waist, fields that smell like honey, beside a lake with nobody there.

Visually, steep cliffs and in summer an array of flowers that look like they belong to Van Gogh or Monet.

Transformative. Soul balm.

Very clean well managed park. Location can’t be beat. Bus stops right in front of entrance for a 15 minute bus ride to downtown historic area. Sites are well spaced. Lots of trees for shade. Would definitely stay here again.

Friendly staff. Clean grounds and bathrooms. Urban location that has bus stop right outside that takes you downtown to Plaza for $1 senior or $2 regular all day pass.

This park had more airstreams than I have ever seen in one park. It was fun to be a part of the airstream community! The park is clean and our site was very level with convenient and very clean hook-ups. Our site was gravel and directly across from the registration building. I thought it would be a total bummer, but traffic through the park was very light and respectful. All of our neighboring campers were friendly and the Trailer Ranch team were very helpful and nice. We enjoyed our stay here and love Santa Fe!!! We’ll be back.

Traveling through town- would not make a reservation for only 1 night!

Convenient bus service into a busy downtown Santa Fe was helpful as parking can be a problem. Restaurants are near-by and be sure to try Tortilla Flats. Showers and toilets are a close walk away and are kept clean by friendly staff. There is a laundry and lines to hang up your clothes. Traffic noise is the payment for being in-town Santa Fe.

This campsite was efficient, friendly, and had plenty of entertainment available. We walked to the brewery next door and made good use of the dog parks.

We needed a place to clean up before heading to Chaco Canyon for a few days. This place filled the bill nicely. The park was clean and the staff friendly and helpful.

But the best part is there is a brewery you can walk to from the campground. They serve organic pizza and cold beer. What more do you need?

I would give the place 5 stars but one of the good things, access, means you can hear the interstate.

This is a civilized campground located just a few minutes north of Albuquerque. Amenities include a camp store and laundry room. I arrived without a reservation and was able to find a nice tent site with plenty of shade and wooden fences on three sides for privacy. Water and electricity were also available at my site.

This being an urban campground, there was some traffic noise from nearby roads and freeways. However, the campground quieted down at night and I slept well. The bathrooms were very well appointed, and required a code to enter.

Loved staying here. Basics and showers are great. Near ABQ!

This place is amazing! The service was fantastic and the brewery—that you can walk to (!)—had amazing food, beer, and a front yard full of games! We will definitely be back here for a stay if we are ever close again!

We stayed here one night traveling through NM. The sites were tight (typical KOA). Everything was clean and the folks were friendly. Easy in and out. Would stay here again for an overnight.

Large sites. Very clean bathrooms and showers. Convenient location. Friendly staff.
