The campsite is well managed. The spaces are well thought out. Check the website and enjoy.. NO water anywhere
TravelerPeaceful
Camp spots are nice and roomy. Each site has a picnic table and a fire ring. There is no septic dump at your site, however they do have a dump station on the way out. Love the fact that they have quiet hours.
RangerVery quiet, well off the beaten path
We really enjoyed our two days at the park this fall. The sites a quite large and well spaced. It felt more like being out in the woods by yourself as we couldn't see another camp site from our trailer.
If you are coming for the lake you maybe disappointed. With the drought, the lake level is very low and the shore line off in the distance. We came for the peace and quiet and that we found in abundance. The park was clean and well maintained. Cell service was 2 bars but speed was acceptable.
Any sized rig will fit and we stayed in the Blanco loop with power and water. We will stay again is we find ourselves in north central New Mexico.
