I stayed at a camping cabin. I’d been car camping for a month and had stayed at a camping cabin at las cruces Koa and loved it. This cabin has a heater that was not able to keep the cabin warm - it was really cold maybe 15 at night and I could not get rid of a chill all night even though I was bundled up. Then in the morning I went to close the door and the door handle broke locking me out. Luckily I had my dog and car keys but no one was in office yet and it was bitter cold. They let me cancel my next night and did offer a free night but didn’t refund the money I spent. Loved Santa Fe tho the food and coffee are Amazing!!!

Our stay was just 3 nights but it was in the right place at the right time. Many trees and not too far from Santa Fe and Taos and Chimayo.
ScoutSuper clean Polite staff Firewood available Brand new playground 20 min from Santa Fe Showers / bathrooms 30/50 amp Fenced dog parks/fire pit areas fenced for pets Lots of space between units

This campground is a little further from santa fe than ideal. Pool/Game room close early. Super hilly, and could be tricky to navigate. The people that run it are nice. Would stay again.

We were hit by a blizzard driving through the I-25 pass from Santa Fe to Denver and had to take refuge in the KOA Las Vegas, NM for 2 nights. They quickly got us a space and allowed us to wait out the snow. Clean restrooms and showers, a shop in the grounds that serves breakfast. Hikes nearby. Very welcoming and friendly hosts.

My children and I stayed 2 nights in a camping cabin at the Bernalillo KOA in May, 2017. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our booking process, even when we needed to make changes. The cabin was clean and neat, the KOA showerhouse was as well. They had a nice pool with plenty of shade and an outdoor movie in the evenings which my kids enjoyed. It was an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area, including the Jemez Mountains, many pueblos, Bandelier National Monument, Petroglyph National Monument and Kashe Katuwe National Monument.
RangerThe Las Vegas, NM KOA was one of the prettiest KOA settings I have seen. It is a stunning location, and the town of Las Vegas is charming. The owners are were kind and helpful. That being said, this property is tired and in need of some maintenance and love. Our camping cabin needed chinking, I could see light through the logs. Happily there was a heater for the cold rainy night. The shower house was in great need of an update. Breakfast was delicious, but really slow as there was only one kind gentleman doing the cooking and there were several groups to feed. Some people cancelled their orders and left rather than staying to eat.
All that said, I would stay here again. The people were kind, the cost was reasonable, and it still beats a tent in the rain when passing through on a long road trip. And as I said at that start - it is beautiful. My kids loved the playground.
This was our base of operations for a visit to Fort Union National Historic Site.

We stayed at this site on the way back to Texas from our Colorado trip this summer. This is a great National Forest Campground south of Taos in the Carson Forest. The campground is just off the highway and situated in a beautiful mountain pine forest and next to a great trout stream. You have great shade during the hotter summer months. It’s far enough away from the highway that you don’t hear the traffic. It has a huge meadow and group camp site which look fantastic. The individual sites have some privacy between the sites and come equipped with fire pits and picnic tables. We made a reservation but the camp had a number of open sites in the peak summer season. The highlight here is the proximity of great hiking to nearby lakes and fishing in the trout stream. They had great facilities including clean pit toilets and some historic log cabins. They have a camp host and the sites accommodate tents and smaller vans and campers. I would give this another visit on our next trip to NM.
GuideI will always remember with great fondness this darling campsite in Santa Fe, NM
I was moving from Sedona and was on my way to relocate to Boulder to attend UC Boulder.
I took a slight detour into Santa Fe to visit an old friend and the minute I pulled into Santa Fe ( with all my furniture hanging off my Jeep Cherokee) someone yelled, “ Welcome to Santa Fe!!
I thought what a friendly town this is! So I parked my Jeep in a 1 hour spot and fell in love instantly with Santa Fe.
I walked into a super nice restaurant and got hired!
So then I thought ok, now what??? Where am I going to live?
I went to Walmart and bought a tent and a bottle of wine and went straight to Rancheros de Santa Fe Campground- which became my new home for about 2 weeks- until I found a sweet apartment.
I remember ironing my uniform in the bathroom, and the amazing smell of Piñon and Junioer 🌲
I’d love to go back for another visit.
Such a beautiful and sweet spot to stay
TravelerGreat place in a beautiful wooded hillside southwest of Santa Fe about 15 mins or so. They have a pool, a small dog park and a great little hiking trail with good views of the surrounding mountains. Nice facilities, a small store and a laundry mat make it a great place to explore Santa Fe and the surrounding area.
Traveler
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.
LegendWe were very excited on our first night to settle into our campsite after a long day of adventuring. Just a short drive to the outskirts of Santa Fe in mountain country we found our campground, Rancheros de Santa Fe.
Upon entry the staff was very friendly and welcoming and we felt like this would be a great place to call home away from home.
The campsites were laid out well with room between campers and because it was the end of a weekend, they were not entirely at capacity which made for a pleasant sense of space in the great outdoors.
Our campsite was positioned in the "high road" tent site area which is a primitive campsite without additional amenities. Each campsite has a fire ring and also a picnic table for campers to utilize and a pad site for tents slightly raises from ground level.
It made for a beautiful night sleep under the chilly New Mexico skies.
By morning we ventured up to the public showers and restrooms which were clean and had amazon water pressure and hot water to set the morning in motion perfectly.
The facility also offers a pool and theater room during summer months so while we didn't get to take advantage we were excited to know upon return we would have these features available.

Overall we give this campground a 4 of 5 Bunniea! The only things we noticed which kept it from a 5 were the lack of wifi reach in the back sections of the campground, wouldn't have been a big deal but cell service in the off grid location was also patchy so the wifi would have been handy. And the pad site was not designed for a tent quite our size. Our tent is a 12x8 and had a little side hang on on the 12 foot end.
LegendGood campground close to everything in Santa Fe. Staff was very friendly, great pool, clean park. They had a small rec room with a paddle ball table. Showed a family friendly movie nightly in the movie room. Cons: some sites were small, traffic noise depending on where site located, pool was cold, park could use an overall update. Excellent restaurant mile down the road Cafe Fina. Enjoyed Santa Fe, Bandelier, Pecos Historic Park, Meow Wolf. Would definitely return to the park.

Ok if you need to stay close to Santa Fe. Correct place. A little bit price for an overnight stay.
GuideThis is one of our two favorite campgrounds in Santa Fe. The other is Santa Fe Skies. They each have a very different "feel" about them. In Rancheros you do not have the wide open view to the West for the amazing sunsets not the view to the east toward the mountains, but you have an intimate site with a very private feeling. I don't know which I like best so we stay in one some years and the other in other years. There is a nice hiking trail and full hookups for those who need them.
LegendVery friendly and helpful hosts. About 19 miles from downtown Santa Fe. Our site was across from bathhouse which was pull through and level. Enjoyed our stay.
Guide15 minutes from the Santa Fe Plaza, museums and restaurants. It’s nestled in a piñon / juniper forest in a gorgeous location. The staff, especially Mary, are super helpful.
GuideNice older campground, some sites are spacious other may be tight for larger units. Overall good experience, very friendly staff. It’s literally 20 min to old Santa Fe, which is great.

We enjoyed this place. Perfect for some sightseeing, hiking, and close enough to Santa Fe/Taos if you want to visit those cities (about an hour drive to either). Lots of stars & quiet at night.
GuideFull hookup. Big gravel lots and lots of them. Great location close to downtown Santa Fe and stores for loading up. It was quiet too.
Not very pretty. Not much of an office. No amenities really. WiFi was not very great either.
GuideStayed here for a week with the family close to Santa Fe and Pecos national forest. Managers very friendly and can be quite entertaining if you hang around for a bit. Spaces are a bit tight if you have slide outs. Great place to stay and relax.
GuideVery nice people, clean restrooms and laundromat, level gravel sites. Easy access to Santa Fe. No pool. Campground was full when we wanted to stay an extra night, so they offered a space for boondocking, which was a nice surprise. No cell reception on Verizon. Slow limited internet.
ScoutGreat base camp for checking out SF. Planned on 2 day stay, ended up staying 6. Bike trails are close and awesome. Friendly staff and guests. Best place in the city to stay. Only negative is the Cerrillos road race track noise. Santa Fe locals like loud and fast rides.
GuideLos Suenos rv Park is located in the hustle and bustle of Santa Fe. If you're not sure you will drive right by and not even see it. If you do manage to find it nice little park with full hookups laundry and shower facilities but that's it. All cell carriers seem to work just fine here.
ScoutGreat location just outside of Santa Fe, super easy to get to off of I-25. Bathrooms are clean and showers are comfortable. Everything is well maintained and the dog park is a massive plus if you have pups. There’s a little road noise, but not bad, and definitely worth it for ease of use. Would recommend!
GuideLocated 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.
