Huge New Mexico Resevoir state park with 4 separate campgrounds

A big Campground south of Durango and 15 miles outside of Farmington, NM. We’re here before the season starts but there’s a huge amount of Houseboats on the water at the marina so I’ll assume it’s very active in warmer summer weather. We’re in a 30’ Class C and we fit ok but our site and maybe others are just a bit too close to each other. There is a strong Verizon signal so we can receive internet that way and our Dish Satellite worked well also. There is no over the air tv signal. The little involvement with Park personnel was very nice. Marina in. bar and Restaurant were not open yet. Guessing May 1 for that? We would come back again.. between the lake, fishing, hiking nearby Indian ruins this is a sweet place to unwind and have fun
