We had interned to stay at la Sombra yet it was still closed. What a fortunate closure! This site was fantastic and we stayed in site 9 right on the river. The system for paying for a site can be a bit confusing as you may reserve online and pay at site. We were double booked and again what a fortunate issue. We shared the spot with a wonderful couple from Europe and enjoyed a most delightful time. The trails are all easily accessible and Taos is minutes away. Northern New Mexico was truly enchanting and a must see!
