Funky vibe, cool staff, indoor plumbing, showers, and Wi-Fi (somewhat, it gets overloaded with a full campground). Right outside Taos. Can kinda hear road noise but not too bad.
Has the standard KOA amenities (bathroom, shower, laundry, etc), but also has a hot tub, indoor pool, and a pretty decent offering of supplies for sale in the main office.
The downside here, and why it loses stars, is that it is right next to a busy highway, which is loud ALL night. It sounded like a semi truck going through my living room, which it basically was. Also next to train tracks, where the trains blow horn passing through. I somehow managed to sleep through a lot of it, but any light sleeper won’t get a wink. I was in a tent so maybe RV dampens the sound somewhat, but it was ridiculous that they put a place for people to sleep right next to such constant and intense noise.
The shower house could use some maintenance, and the front desk lady quipped that they should put a TV in the laundry room but someone would just steal it, which didn’t instill confidence about the safety of the campground.
Just a nice, quiet little spot of land with basic but well-maintained facilities. No forests, lake, trails, or any of that, but in this part of the state such things don’t exist anyway. Perfect as a stopover on the Great Journey between Kansas and Colorado.
