Santa Fe Skies RV Park is family built, owned and operated. It sits on 17 acres overlooking the beautiful mountains of Santa Fe, New Mexico. We are "Big Rig friendly". Fifty five sites are pull-thrus designed to accommodate large motor coaches and travel trailer rigs. All sites are equipped with 20/30/50 amp electrical service. Water and Sewer are available at all pull-thru and almost all back-in sites. We are "pet friendly". Free Wifi is available. The RV Park is within a short driving distance to two major shopping malls (one an outlet mall), several restaurants, a large supermarket and other local businesses. We are located just off the scenic Turquoise Trail, which includes the historic Villages of Cerrillos and the artist center of Madrid. It is only a short distance from the 17th Century Spanish Colonial Living History Museum, El Rancho de Las Golondrinas, which was the last overnight stop for travelers coming to Santa Fe on the El Camino Real from Mexico. The city of Santa Fe is located at the base of the Sangre de Cristo mountains at an altitude of 7,000 ft. above sea level. (That is 1,500 ft. higher than Denver, Colorado.) Since the Santa Fe Skies RV Park sits on a ridge just outside of town, you get a panoramic view of the entire Santa Fe area! Not only can you see the historic Sangre de Cristo Mountains, where the sunset makes the mountains shine with a red glow in the evening (hence the name "Sangre de Cristo" or "Blood of Christ"), you can also see the Jemez Mountains to the west, and in the south and southwest the Cerrillos Hills, the Ortiz Mountains and the Sandia Peak at the base of which lies the city of Albuquerque.

It features 156 acres of highland forest. The land is covered in juniper, piñon, and ponderosa pine, and various cactus. Guests enjoy seeing broad-winged, black-chinned and Rufus hummingbirds, shy cottontail rabbits, skittish lizards, grey fox and more.
The amenities included with your reservation are all-hours access to the outdoor cooking area with a community fridge, stove, microwave, propane grill, blender, coffee maker (bring your own ground coffee or Keurig pod, sugar and creamer), plates, bowls, cooking and eating utensils. Also available is the communal restroom and shower building. All guests are required to recycle and compost as detailed at the Outdoor Cooking Area as per our mission of sustainability.
The camp is located about 20 minutes from Museum Hill, 25 minutes from Meow Wolf, Old Town Santa Fe Plaza and just 15 minutes to delicious food at Harry's Roadhouse, Jambo Bobcat Bite or Cafe Fina. Tree House Camp land borders the Santa Fe National Forest and Pecos Wilderness Area.

Wander our various hiking trails to enjoy a 20 minute hike to a creek (in wet weather) or climb up Shaggy Peak ( seasoned hikers only please!). We look forward to sharing this unique, magical place with you in the “Land of Enchantment."
NOTE: We are up 1.3 miles of dirt road with 2 steep hills and bumps. We are not near public transportation so you will need your own vehicle. Be aware that the roads can be snowy, icy or muddy in early spring, late fall and winter, and rutted due to rains in the summer. At those times of the year we recommend a car with front-wheel, all wheel or four-wheel drive and good traction tires.
Please add any guests 13 years and up to your reservation as adult. (0-4 years old free, 5-12 years old 1/2 price child fee you pay upon arrival with cash, Zelle, Venmo or PayPal. ) Please also plan to pay the $10 per dog/ per night fee. We do not add this into the payments online since not all of the hosting sites we use have that option and it allows us to know that everyone with a dog will owe the dog fee.
Since the camp is minimally lit to see the stars we recommend you bring a flashlight and consider arriving while it is still light out. It makes locating us easier and you will get to experience our beautiful sunsets and have more time to enjoy this enchanted hilltop**! **
Checkin times are 4-8PM Spring, Fall and Winter and 4:00-9:45pm in Summer. Please do not come before 4pm without prior permission. Let me know your ETA and keep me informed of delays.
Once you have located your site you are welcome to leave and come back after the normal check in time without a fee but please be as quiet as possible.
Cellphone reception can be spotty for some carriers, Verizon works the best here. Wifi calling is helpful.

I will start with the only downside of this site: it is very active with hikers, families, dogs, and photographers. You can expect dozens upwards of a hundred faces a day hiking up here which can be extremely annoying and the car traffic can drive you nuts. That said, for the ease of access, for the beautiful trails, and for the clean amenities I think it is worth it. In the winter right before the ski area opens is your best bet for quiet camping. But in the summer, spring, fall, and during ski season you will have a lot of friendly faces. Again, not bad, but I know some folks are very interested in getting "away" from people while camping. To those I recommend this site for hiking and not staying. Highly recommend for folks who are less physically abled; I developed a heart condition which limits my abilities most days and the ease of access to these sites and close parking is great for someone who wants to be in touch with nature while enduring limiting conditions.

The place was clean. Our issues were two.
Traveler
We paid $75 for one night and the WiFi was weak and we had no cell service. The place was lovely and the bathrooms were clean and easy to use. It’s located 12 miles out of the city. There is a grocery store near by with a good selection of food and alcohol.
Scout
For a short notice location it was great. Easy to book online. A bit noisy with the semi traffic but made for a good nite. A complimentary shower would be nice considering the price.
Legend
This is an overall nice CG. Gravel roadways and relatively level pull through sites. Good FHUs. When we arrived, the office was closed. We reserved E010 but were told to pick any open space in the "A" row. There were quite a few long-term residents. The conditions were very dry and dusty. No shade trees, but the pines planted will eventually provide. This was a great CG for our overnight stay. We would stay here again.
Guide
Our site was relatively level, the park pretty quiet. We had a 50 amp connection that dropped L2 sometime in the night. Strangely, it resumed by turning off the 120 breaker. I’m thinking the pedestal has loose wiring but hey, I got the other half of my panel energized without relocating or burning down. Water pressure is around 30 p.s.i. and the sewer drop was threaded. Park cleanliness and ease of navigating was fine. Free WiFi and cable TV connectivity as well as propane for purchase (cash only). I’d give this place 5 stars if I didn’t have to go into the office.
The guy at the desk has his political opinions that he shares unsolicited. I’m game for free speech but geez, I just wanted to rent a space, not become an antisemitic, Putin loving Neo-Nazi misogynist that gets his news exclusively from an echo chamber on Facebook. I was kinda feeling sorry for how low his life must be to have so angst but hey, I just wanted a space, not adopt a
GuideOverall it is what you would expect for a gas station RV spot. It serves a purpose which is what I am rating. We were initially in RV site #1 but this had to much foot traffic with everyone stopping for gas walking their pets. Also just more traffic in general. We moved to RV site 8 which was better. Had to contact Loves for both sites. No power initially at site 1 which was an easy fix on their end. Site 8 had the sewer connection locked and no code was communicated to us up front. The staff inside the Loves was very friendly.
Traveler
We loved the location. The hiking trails were awesome. We booked a reservable with hydro for one night and decided to extend our stay with the first come first serve system. The self pay stations are at each of the teo campground loops. The 2nd and 3rd night didn’t have hydro however the size of the site and view more than made up for it.
To use the dump station, you have to go to the Rangers Station and ask them to unlock the gate. The access is a bit tight and we were not able to fill our fresh water tank due to the State Park having to bring their water up by truck. All in all, it was worth it.
Legend
They were very helpful in a last minute need for a full hook up site. Nice upon late check in. But honestly this seems to be more of a long term resident place than a nightly stop. We came in very late and left very early so no facilities were used. Full hookups, all worked fine.
Guide
Made the reservation online. $14/night for a leveled site with covered table, fire pit and a water spigot. Had a great night. Felt very safe and noise was minimal. Would definitely stay again when in the area.
GuidePerfect for an overnight stop, quiet, clean, there are several long term residents which is not reflected on the online booking system, most overnighters stay in row A. The playground was nice for our daughter
Traveler
Yes, it can get packed but be prepared to go early enough to find a good spot. I prefer camp sites 7 through 10, even the very first site when you first come in since they are right near the river. If you really want to experience the haunt of the campground I prefer the campsites in the back 11 through 16.
I have not experienced the haunts until I camped at spot 15, this past Labor Day weekend on Friday night August 30, 2024. I went to bed and about 12 am I heard a voice say Hello to me. Then the last night my friend and I were by the fire we did not have any more neighbors as they left that Sunday, we had our trash bag hanging from my friends canopy there was no wind and that trash bag was swaying back and forth rapidly. Was definitely an experience.
The hikes are the best especially if you have time to go to the lake which you want to get an early start, just follow the trail in the back past the reservation spot to get to the trail and follow up get to the fork in the trail and hang a left to the lake. I love the camp site always clean restrooms and fun experience for the paranormal.
Guide
Really like this KOA. At first thought it was out of the way but really like it. Just off I25. Nice Big Rig friendly. Some of the sites I went by thought was not level but then you look closer the pad itself was very level. Nice pool.
Legend
The location is close to stores and restaurants that are about 10 minutes away...that we needed after discovering a damaged tire. The front desk recommended a tire store that was just north of the park. Thank you...The park has been set up nicely. The sites are a bit tight from the adjoining sites. Site were level and all the hook ups worked without issue. The location made for an hour's drive to Los Alamos and Bandelier national monument. Both great visits if you haven't been there before.

Cons
Chilly, even in July, just FYI, come prepared.

The RV park is excellent, don't know why there are poor reviews. The location could not be better! The sites were very clean and easy to get into with a class A. The managers were very gracious and helpful for all our needs and gave great recommendations for Santa Fe. This is the third time we have stayed here and love it!
ScoutFay was a great host, amazing spot for rural camping and cheap as heck too! Loved every part of my stay, thanks for running such a top notch operation!
Guide
Loved camping here! Arrived late Sunday night, whole park was pretty busy. Found a spot right by the river with lots of shade, downside was it was super close to the road. Wasn't too bad since park closes relatively early. Got a crazy thunderstorm after sunset, but decided to hunker down for the night, instead of dashing. We stayed warm and dry, thankfully. Campground ranger came around to check if we were okay, and to give a verbal warning about leaving if we need to. For me personally, I wouldn't come on the weekends due to how populated it was, but perfect and quiet during the weekdays.
TravelerWe stayed here in June for two nights. The days were warm, but the nights were lovely. We were in spot 53 which was a long pull through, but very narrow and close to the neighboring spots. We were lucky that they were not reserved so we had a little more room. We were glad we were in the trees due to the daytime temps. If you need a large spot, 1 through 7 have a nice view of the valley, but no trees. Resident and neighboring dogs and cats roam throughout and may come visit your campsite. The county road to the campground is nice and quiet and makes for a good place to go for long walks.
LegendThis small state park, located just 6 miles outside of downtown Santa Fe, might provide the least expensive lodging options for visiting this wonderful city. Like many of NM state parks, the camping fee is $10 for a non-electric site, and $25 for electric sites (reservable).
The vault toilets were clean and well-stocked, and water was available at the central office/ visitor center area, even in winter. One of the most charming aspects of our campsite was a small picnic shelter with built-in fireplace. During the fall, winter, and spring, most of the camping loops are closed, but they keep one open year round as well as a few scattered along the main road through the state park.
The campground has a lot of evergreen trees, so solar power needs to be on an extension cord. Our site down the road from the main campground had a bit more open sky, so we had pretty good solar power between 11 am and 4 pm in November. We also had no problem connecting with Starlink and had some spotty cell phone service.
A few of the sites in the year-round loop, and dozens in the summer loops have lean-to structures (3 sided cabins) with enough space to set your tent up inside.
Access to the Santa Fe Ski slope is just up the hill about 8 more miles, and of course all that Santa Fe offers is just down the hill, museums, restaurants, music, galleries, and so much great culture (the original Meow Wolf is worth a look). The park has great trails and borders the national forest with tons of other hiking options.
Guide
Zero stars. I'm not overly picky about amenities, but this place was in shambles. First, there were 2 young women in the front office smacking gum with their feet on the counter. One handed me a map showing my spot, then told me that the restrooms (I only saw one for the entire facility and it shared the space with the washer/dryer) were closed from 6 to 8am and then from 3 to 5pm for cleaning--prime time for this senior's 70-year-old bladder. The spot I was assigned had a 30-degree drop and 6-foot reach to the utilities...not doable for my 18-foot camper van, so I went back to the office and asked if I could move to another space. They said no. I said that I would have to go somewhere else because I paid for, and required power, water, and bathroom facilities and they said ok, but that they had a no-refund policy since I was cancelling on the day of arrival. I said that I paid for 2 days and asked that one be refunded. They didn't even blink and again declined so I backtracked 22 miles to the Albuquerque (east) KOA, which was lovely.
Guide
We had been boondocking for a few nights and "needed" hookups and showers for a night of relative luxury. This place is a little outside town but not too bad. We checked in late and our electric didn't work, but the park was half empty - I just grabbed another site and everything was fine - good showers and bathrooms.
I've seen other reviewers say the place is a bit dated and while I'll echo that, my kids really enjoyed the "OG" type playground - much steeper/faster/FUNNER slide than the new stuff they're used to.
Little $ relative to what you get, but a lot of that is just location/Santa Fe IMO.
GuideSo the info on Dyrt and the parks website in inaccurate. There are 35+ first come first serve tent spots (none of which have water as of May 2024) and 10 ish RV spots on a separate loop, only 2 of which are first come first serve and electric only - all the rest are reservation only...
The tent spots aren't accessible with anything bigger than a regular car/SUV - class B with an experienced driver and short wheel base might be able to fit, no way a class C would. No way a trailer (even a teardrop) would fit in the parking spots for tent spots if you strike out on the RV spots.
The drive up is GORGEOUS and almost worth it regardless of camping, and super convenient to downtown Santa Fe, but if you're in a RV have your water straight and HAVE A RESERVATION! We ended up just parking in a trailhead parking lot (that said no camping) and rolled the dice (successfully).
ScoutThere are several loops in this park, in Ludington Black Canyon, the Main Park Loop, a couple Yurt loops, and the small loop we stayed on with RV electric hookups. Its on the left side as you go up, just above the main loop. While there is electric and a vault toilet, be advised there is no water source on this loop. Sites are basic, but nice, with fire rings and concrete picnic tables. We camped with our 21' teardrop and had no problems. We walked through the yurt site just above us, amd they are stunning, with patios and what appears to be heating. Worth a look. No cell service or wifi in the campground.
GuideThe drive to this park takes us back in time through the tiny town of Villanueva. Once through the gates I was amazed at the fast flowing Pecos River right next to the tree shaded sites. A gem. Good hiking trails too!
LegendEasy off/on I25. Campsites are spread out with trees separating sites. The only bad is water pressure; very low. We slowly filled tank and used our pump.
LegendNice state park. Can get windy in the spring. No cell service but Starlink connection is fine.
