Best Glamping near Tome, NM

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!

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.

Big lot, easy access. Good condition electric and sewer. Nice picnic tables and trees everywhere.

We arrived in the evening and only stayed one night. Whe facility was super clean. We walked to nearby restaurants. There was a hot tub open, but the pool was closed.

Good campground with access to all Albuquerque has to offer. Quick biking to the Sandia trails and short drive to hiking. The bus stop is nearby so getting around town is easy too. There is lots to do. The desert is in full bloom right now.

So, the park itself (inside the huge gates protecting you from the surrounding area) is nice. Decent for kids, spots are nice sizes, they do keep it clean.

The bad? Where do I begin. It's in an area where gunshots and people shooting up in broad daylight are the norm. Park employees and management are micro managers. Plus they outright lied to us about a monthly spot. And it's so beyond overpriced I can't even explain. The pet areas are an absolute JOKE. We felt so unsafe, and annoyed with employees, we left.

After a very long day on the road. Welcomed at 9pm great sites, very clean. It is right next to the freeway which is a plus but some noise.

Large location with a lot sites. Close to freeway so some noise, but not bad. Very clean nice host.

The campground was pretty much a large parking lot, with rows of RVs. Our reservation said we would have a fire ring or grill but were told the one nearby was just for tent campers. There was a communal propane grill, and propane available for purchase, but the store was already closed when we realized the situation. A fire ban prevented us from using our own charcoal grill. On the plus side, my kids enjoyed a game of mini golf, the bathrooms were clean and staff friendly.

We've been full-timing for four years, and this was my first KOA stay. We were hesitant about the destination, since it was located in such a densely populated part of town. However the campground was clean, secure, the staff and other campers were friendly and courteous. Some of the facilities, like a satellite bathhouse and the hot tub were out of service during our visit, but it was of little consequence. We were in town for work. Starbucks was a very short drive away. We'd merrily stay there again if the need arises.
