Best Glamping near Polvadera, NM

There are vault toilets, trash bins, and bear boxes. This campground is nice with sites for RV and tent camping. We camped here one night with our scout troop. I did have spotty T-Mobile service, others had phone service as well but I’m not sure of their provider. We had a great night with a campfire and a good view of the stars and moon. All was well until someone started illegally cutting down trees at 2 in the morning. After an annoying couple of hours they were gone, most of our group were wide awake and tried to go back to sleep. We stayed at the site till afternoon with no other problems, just a group of tired scouts.

Pretty open sites (less than a dozen) which are on some pretty rough desert/mountain terrain.

There are some nice shaded picnic shelters, but no water...there are vault toilets (a bit smelly and hot)

Cobola national forest has a ton of awesome trails and you're not too far from Albequerque

The trip to Capilla Peak camp is not for the faint of heart.  You'll be traveling on a one-lane gravel and dirt track to 9200 feet above MSL, but once you get there, it's worth the journey.  On a weeknight in August I had the entire campground to myself.

A couple of the eight sites have wooden awnings which are great on windy days.  There is also a pavilion for group gatherings.  All of the sites have fire rings and picnic tables.  There isn't a place to park a trailer in the camp itself, but there are spots at the top of the driveway.  I wouldn't bring a trailer up here anyway.

Easy access to the Crest Trail and the hike to Osha Peak is an easy two miles.  Past Osha Peak you enter a pretty nasty burn scar and the trail becomes harder to follow.  Hardly any people but tons of deer to keep you company!
