Resting at an elevation of 7,200 feet, in a wide valley between two mountain ranges, Santa Fe is known as “The City Different” for its unique culture and historical atmosphere.

There’s also plenty to explore just outside of the city, including hiking and skiing in the Santa Fe Mountains, ancient pueblos at Pecos National Historic Park, and the former ghost town Madrid, and its variety of eclectic shops, galleries and eateries. Located just a few miles southwest of the historic downtown area, the Los Sueños de Santa Fe RV Park & Campground offers nearly 100 drive-in and pull-through RV campsites. Sites can accommodate vehicles/trailers up to 70 feet, and provide full or partial hookups. A selection of campsites are available for small vehicles and tent campers.

      Policy does not client

      The place was clean. Our issues were two.

      1. The strong smell of marijuana is due to their neighborhood store that makes and sells the stuff.
      2. Only pay for 2 days at a time or know your time period. We had bad weather approaching and they did not seem to care about our safety but only their policy. The people next to us had the same issue. WiFi is weak but cell was ok not great.

      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!

      For a City KOA, it was great

      We stayed here twice on our trip. Both were great stays. The site is spotless and the security (urban location) is excellent. The bathrooms/showers were likewise very clean and there was plenty of hot water. We didn't use the pool or the laundry, but they were also well maintained. We would definitely stay here again.

      Albuquerque KOA Journey

      Great for kids!

      This KOA is in a seemingly not ideal part of town, next to an interstate and that has A LOT more asphalt than trees... And my kids loved every second of it!

      Jump pad, play ground, mini golf and a really nice pool (that stays opens until 9 am) were the highlights. Clean, modern and convenient showers were pluses for Mom and Dad.

      15 minutes from the Sandia Air tram, 20 minutes from the airport. Friendly staff. Wind was pretty intense at night on our visit so I'd recommend pulling your awnings in when you go to bed. Interstate noise could be an issue if you're not running ac/fan.

      Nice KOA

      One of the nicer KOAs but still a KOA. Sites are close together. Friendly staff and clean/organized campground. 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.

      Beautiful Ground (Needs new host)

      The campground is beautiful! Has great rv spots, and having the little pagoda to ourselves was so fun! Bathrooms are nice, has lots of trails, and has good access to trashcans. I was bummed about the “river access” because you really have to blaze your own trail through tall brush to actually get to the river. But the views were amazing! My only complaint - this place NEEDS a new camp host, badly! When we pulled in (at Noon) the host told us we needed to sign papers and pay $8 for parking our extra car in our RV spot. He told us he would come by with the paperwork. Well he didnt, so we went to the check in station and knocked. No answer and it was locked. So we went to the camp host camper to knock…DISGUSTING. Huge piles of dog feces around the camper. It looked like the dogs were pooping inside and it was getting brushed out the door into piles around the door. Gross trailer, garbage everywhere. We knocked anyways and no answer, so we hurried away to get away from the smell. We went back to the check in station around 2 and again at 4:40 and still no answer. My advice, get a new host with a newer camper who will respect the place.

      Good for a one night stop

      I like the campground, clean, well organized, the missing two stars are not because of the campground, but because of it's location.

      1. It is not in a great part of town.

      2. It is right off I-40, very convenient, but very noisy.

      And then there is the traffic on I-40, ugh.

      We'll stay there again, it is a very nice facility, and works very well for an overnight. The location just isn't my favorite.

      Super clean in town adults only rv park

      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.

      Stunning Views of the Sandia Mountains

      All have to say is WOW! We had an amazing view of the Sandia Mountains from our site. This was an overflow area of the park so it had no hookups but the park does have full hookups. However, the primitive sites and overflow area, IMHO, are the best and have the best views.

      Very clean and organized

      The park is very nice and clean. Everyone I talked with was very polite and helpful. I will stay here again. Very close to the Balloon Park, Albuquerque and the town of Bernalillo. The only concern was my AC would not fully power up, it seemed not enough amps. The previous park was fine and the park we are at now it works fine. Not sure of the cause. Park was fully booked, may have added to this. Excellent WiFi and cell phone connection (Verizon)

      Amazing site! Photos to follow. It is a bit pricey for the upgrade but totally worth it. I am here to do some work, so privacy was necessary. Laundry room and machines are excellent and CLEAN. Bathrooms too :) Bathrooms are really the most important. You absolutely must be here by 5pm as they close at 5:30pm. No kids. For those of you who are curious. People were helpful and friendly. Plus, only 4 miles from historic downtown. Close to the bike path and grocery stores. Very convenient. Very clean. Very friendly.

      Decent rv park, great location

      Located right off a main thoroughfare, close to a lot of fun Santa Fe stuff (including Meow Wolf). Nothing too special, showers were ok (wish they had curtains). Lots of long- or full-timers. Quiet for an rv park in the middle of town. New Mexican restaurant across the street, El Comal, is delicious. Decently priced. Wi-Fi only sorta works.
