Santa Fe

The Best RV Camping Near Santa Fe, New Mexico

The Santa Fe Treehouse Camp and wilderness education nature preserve **is a non-smoking facility**.

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 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), 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. There are beautiful views and access to Shaggy Peak, the southernmost tip of the Rocky Mountains and the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range. Wander our various hiking trails to enjoy a 20 minute hike to a creek (in wet weather) or climb up Shaggy Peak (about 2-5 hour round trip hiking, depending on your activity level). 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 some 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.***

Black Canyon Campground is one of the more popular campgrounds on the Santa Fe National Forest and offers the most amenities of any of the campgrounds in the Espanola Ranger District. Some sites are single- and double-family camping sites. Six are tent-camping only and visitors must park and travel to the campsite. A few are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. There are 36 units for cars and RVs.

There are picnic tables and grills, a campground host on-site, vaulted toilets, and several double sites to accommodate a maximum of 16 people. There is a very nice hiking trail that leaves the back of the campground and makes a loop of about a mile, returning to the campground. Park outside the main gate and travel in if you are using the trail and not camping. Trailhead parking is available in the lot near the campground entrance.  There is no electricity available, and no RV dump station on site.  A dump station is available nearby for a nominal fee right next door at Hyde Memorial State Park, a part of the NM State Park system. There are additional recreation opportunities along NM 475, both above and below Black Canyon Campground, including hiking and biking trails, picnic areas, and in the winter, both nordic and alpine skiing.

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.

## Natural Features

Bandelier National Monument protects over 33,000 acres of rugged, beautiful canyon and mesa country which features evidence of human presence going back over 11,000 years. Petroglyphs, dwellings carved into the soft rock cliffs, and standing masonry walls pay tribute to the early days of a culture that still survives in the surrounding communities. 

Bandelier National Monument sits at the southern end of the Pajarito (Spanish for little bird) Plateau. The plateau was formed by two eruptions 1.6 and 1.4 million years ago. Home to the Bandelier Wilderness, Bandelier ranges from 5340 ft at the Rio Grande River to the south and 10,199 ft at the summit of Cerro Grande to the north, almost a mile of elevation change in just under 12 miles. This elevation gradient creates a unique diversity of habitats specific to Northern New Mexico. The diversity of habitats and quick access to water supported a relatively large population of Ancestral Pueblo people. Currently, Piñon-Juniper woodlands dominate in the southern parts of the park transitioning through ponderosa pine savannahs and forests, finally reaching mixed conifer forests at the highest elevation. Scattered throughout the park are desert grasslands, montane meadows, and riparian areas in the canyon bottoms. Over 70 miles of trails at Bandelier climb in and out of deep canyons and cross large flat mesas, showcasing the entire spectrum of volcanic geology and ecosystems found within the park.

The park is home to over 55 species of mammals including mule deer, Abert's squirrels, mountain lions, black bears, and 16 species of bats. Replitles and amphibians of all shapes and sizes can be seen. Birds such as Steller's jays, canyon towhees and mountain chickadees stay year-round, whereas turkey vultures, western tanagers, and black-headed grosbeaks are summer residents.
