Love this campground other than the fact there's no Internet or cell service at all. Hosts, Randy and Sue, are terrific people. Restrooms and showers are so clean but will cost you $1.00 for 4 minutes but they are hot and have good pressure.

What a gem of a place right on the Rio Grand river. Lots of trees, firewood available from camp host at a reasonable price. 7.00 a night tent camping. Bathrooms available. We loved this place and will return!

Stayed 14 days (5.2-5.16.25). Showers are wonderful and quarter operated. Kether, the Camphost, and his dog, Choco, are very attentive to keeping bathrooms clean and very helpful and friendly to guests. Nice change from some other campgrounds. Taos is 13 miles away for groceries and laundry. Will return. Read a book and painted since no internet. Very peaceful here

Totally underrated campground! We stayed here in our 28’ motorhome. For two nights we paid $30, which included water & electric hook ups! A great bargain considering the average price of most rv parks. Beautiful scenery, right on the rio grande. Showers available for a fee. About 25 mins to downtown Taos! I would definitely return again.

OMG what a hidden gem!! We stayed at #4RV and it was a shady pull thru with power and water for $15! Right on the river, backed up to rock face. Gorgeous. Clean bathrooms. Showers currently closed for Covid ;-( but we pack ours so all good. Quiet. Dark skies for stargazing. Would definitely go again.
