From the KOA website: 
Travelers along the Santa Fe Trail used to arrive on horseback or by wagon to this lawless frontier town, where Billy the Kid once evaded a lynch mob. Today, travelers enjoy a more civilized reception at this KOA, tucked into the pinon- and juniper-scented foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Wagon-wheel ruts, 900 historic buildings and the Fort Union National Monument highlight the areas past. Lakes and a national wildlife refuge showcase its natural wonders. At KOAs Café del Guapo, sample the green-chile Philly cheesesteak sandwiches and delicious steaks. Have your reunion or get-together in the new rec hall facility. Find Southwest and authentic Indian items in the campground store. Summertime fire truck rides at KOA make for a memorable visit. Rental unit/loft available (seasonal with breakfast). Limited services December 1 to March 1. Pool: May 15 - September 15. Max pull thru: 110 feet. Your hosts: Denny and Debby Matthews.

We wish we could’ve stayed here longer! We loved this campground. Came here in May 2021 on a bit of faith, as we couldn’t find much info on whether our 28' rig would be okay. The road up from Montezuma/Las Vegas is very winding and sometimes close to one lane, but we had no problems when there was oncoming traffic. (Note the campground host had a class A) The campground is small and quiet. 14 sites, several for tents only, and a few pull through. First come first serve. We were lucky that the campground was empty when we arrived, so we had our choice of spots. Not all sites would’ve fit our trailer. No hookups, no water, pit toilets only. No cell service. Our kids loved playing in the gorgeous mountain stream adjacent to the campground.(Just watch out for broken glass, we found quite a bit) Would’ve definitely stayed longer if we had time

I didn't expect to Camp here but it was the same price for day use for overnight camping. I was determined to get to Herman's Peak and when I got down, I already had a site cuz I had paid the eight bucks. Smell of the fires in the crackling, the stream running in the echoing through the canyon walls created a wonderful sensory night of sleep. Apparently in English, the name of the site means the future. That was perfect for me

Very well maintained campground that is remote enough to get away but close to town in case you need something. Weather was great and the surrounding trails were beautiful!
