Rating: 9 8 7 9 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Very nice looking campground, though the neighborhood around it looks a little sketchy. We spent a week here and will definitely come back. Our site was long enough to park anything anyone might want, and easy to get in and out. Spaces are fairly close together, but no problem putting out slides and awnings. There are some mature trees in the park, but not where they cause any problems. The "yard" was part gravel and part covered with Astroturf kind of stuff, nice place to put your chairs and picnic table. They have cable TV but we didn't use it because it was snowy. Probably a corroded connector as is common in campgrounds. You can get dozens of OTA channels with your antenna. My only complaint about the park was the water hookup, which was sunk into the ground, with the spigot very close to the sand/gravel in the bottom. If I hadn't had a 90 degree elbow, I would not have been able to hook up my hose. Also, when water pooled in the bottom, it touched the spigot, which is not a very sanitary situation. Verizon worked well here. - JA1800
Nice Clean well maintained park. It was a little hard to find since it was near a residential area but our GPS led us to it. It has a pool and cabana in front of the office. Staff was friendly. We were led to our site which was long enough for our toad. The dog park was separated for big & small dogs. - Possumvalleybrndr

They moved us to another site. Sites are very close together. This was okay for overnight but we were not comfortable with the surrounding area. - Bat Rider

Rating: 5 7 7 7 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This is basically a parking lot with 50 amp service. It was a great overnight stay instead of paying the $50 or $60 for the nearby KOA!! We pulled through and didn't need to unhook our tow car. We checked in at the casino and were given $10 each in free slot play. We won a little money which paid for our dinner at the restaurant and the rv site for the night - all in all a great stay! We would definitely stay again if in the area. - Admiral II
Convenient overnight stay kind of place. But that's it. It's a large, open space so keep an eye on the forecast for winds. We left a day early because of predicted winds. Also lots of random traffic... people apparently drag racing or doing doughnuts in the gravel. Also generally noisy due to big rigs idling in the truck stop area at the I-25 end of the park. Sits between the casino employees parking lot and an unused and apparently waiting-for-demolition motorsports track / stadium. As of our stay, there were large piles of demolition debris and detritus at the far end of the RV park, which included a lot of trash. You find a spot, then go in to the casino and speak to the person at the customer service desk right when you walk in to pay for your site (so remember your spot #). They send a security guard over to unlock the padlock on your electrical box. Water and dump stations are along the road into the spaces. There is currently not a code needed to dump, but mostly because the box seems busted. There's just an awful lot of construction and demolition going on. The gas station / travel shop is also being renovated. Please note that the casino and all its properties are on the San Felipe Pueblo reservation. Benefit: cheap gas, casino gaming. Drawbacks: absolutely no alcohol allowed, including that consumed in your own RV (that may be a benefit sometimes actually). And no photography. Or sketching. Or paintings. Or even really vivid memories. NOT just of ceremonies or of the historical pueblo, which culturally makes total sense as a rule... But anything. Lots of stories online about cellphones and cameras being confiscated. - Regen Road Trip
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Black Mesa Casino »Underutilized gem! Even during Balloon Fiesta, it's not overrun with noisy neighbors. RV lot is behind Casino and adjacent to truck lot, yet VERY quiet at night. Drive past Casino and hang a right into the RV space area. Pick a level site lined up to a power pedestal and park. Power boxes are locked until you pay, security is speedy getting back out to the lot before you to unlock the power box. Dump station is between RV area and casino (2 sites, with potable water). Water is potable but having seen others handling sewer hoses, THEN the drinking water hose, I bleach the works before I connect a drinking water hose to the spigot. The lot is very dark at night, enough to enjoy the stars. Have seen 1-3 coyotes while walking dogs, including one walking right through the park early in the am. I came here because of no space during Balloon Fiesta, and stayed because of the peace and quiet, and hospitality of the casino staff-very friendly. I see Casino security driving rounds regularly day and night, very reassuring. If passing through, dry camping (free) is available just north of the RV spaces, in front of the motorsports building (where the coyotes are hanging out). Dump station has a credit card box for payment ($10) if you are not paying to stay at RV park (code). Water pressure on filling water tank is low, so a full fill will take some time. The only weird happening: one Saturday, without prior notice, the Pueblo of San Felipe declared the pueblo (casino, gas station, restaurant) closed for a religious ceremony. They erected a barrier at the on/off ramps and closed everything until 4 pm. If you come upon this on any of the pueblos, just pull over and wait. - GoldSeeker

Rating: 7 7 8 7 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This business renamed itself Black Mesa Casino Travel Center RV park in December 2017. The RV park is a wide open area with pull through sites behind the Casino, with power at each site. The only water and dump site is communal ($10, if not paying for RV site) at the front of the RV park. All power pedestals are padlocked until you pay overnight fee at Guest Services in the Casino. Security will drive down and unlock the site number you pay for, you will get the code for the dump station with overnight fee, or just pay by credit card reader at the dump site. You may boondock (free) behind the RV park, near the motorsports park, but shut the genset off at 10pm, or security will knock on your door. Heed area wind warnings. RV park is in a natural bowl, making winds damaging to slideout covers. Pulled my slides in windy nights. - GoldSeeker
Just a big gravel parking lot with electrical hookups. Good 50 amp service. Dump station and water fill station. Could be very crowded if they were full. Good for an overnight stop. - StarlifterFE

Rating: 6 10 8 7 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We usually like city parks both for their convenient locations and reasonable rates. While this park was conveniently located to shopping etc., we thought the rate was a bit high for a city park, although there are different site choices, for example dry camping would've been $14. All the hook up sites were pull-thrus with adobe ramadas and picnic tables. There was good vegetation separation, but the sites were a bit close together and the park road for this section was a little tight. The picture on their website makes the sites seem much more wide open than they are. We had good OATV reception, and the park offered free wifi (which we didn't use.) This park was mostly a stopover for us, but we did have time to visit the Sandia Tramway area for a hike, and if we had stayed longer, we would have visited the adjacent Coronado State Monument. - Chasing Dirt
On ck-in I mentioned we'd not be unhooking our tow vehicle since we would be leaving out early. They realized we might not fit in our reserved spot & offered a free upgrade to longer space that would have cost $5 more. Wonderful service. Spacious spots overall & very clean with great views of Sandia Mtns. We'll return. - The Thompsons

Rating: 10 10 9 9 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Great park. We stayed 3 weeks. Park is 2 miles off I25. Quiet and safe. Checkin was very easy. The streets are paved and very wide. Easy to navigate. All sites are paved and pull through. Staff was helpful/friendly and owner lives onsite. The park is convenient to Santa Fe and Albuquerque. Took the train into Santa Fe. Walmart is across the street. - DDDD
From Making Reso's, to Pulling in, to Parking, to Using The clean facilities, including pool & spa. This park is one of, if not the best value due to the above mentioned, plus location we have had so far. We travel extensively in our coach. - richz
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Stagecoach Stop RV Resort »My husband was planning to travel out of state for work while we were in the Albuquerque area so I would be staying alone for two weeks. I was happy to find a safe place outside the city, but still convenient to shopping. This park is the most expensive we have stayed at so far, but we ended up with one of the best sites in the park. We were at the end of a row, with a shaded area above a round concrete table with a beautiful view of the Sandia Mountains. In all, we had a great experience at this park and the staff were very kind and welcoming. The park is small and therefore a little crowded. There are only two pet-friendly areas in the park and they are two adjacent fenced-in, sandy areas. With a busy park full of small dogs, it was difficult to find an opportunity to take my two larger dogs to the parks - we often had to take some walks around the paved roads to wait our turn. We did not use any of the facilities, but there is a very small laundry room, showers, fitness room, outdoor pool, and indoor hot tub. - jjwright

Rating: 7 8 9 8 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Sites are smaller then expected..mostly full time campers that live here...takes away from the charm of any campground because they seem to collect junk. No cable or TV reception. Bring DVD's this campground is off I-40 exit 175 ..4 miles on 14 N going up a mt. - gmasharp
Roomy quiet sites but few with 50amp and/or sewer. Good cell but really poor wifi and no over the air tv due to rural location. Well kept grounds, mostly level sites, picnic tables and charcoal grills for each site. - Mrfixitct
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Turquoise Trail Campground & RV Park »A nice park located off State 14 a mile from the entrance to Sandia Park, where the ski basin is located. It does have gravel roadways and mostly level gravel sites. My site was long enough for my 40' Class A and my 18' car hauler connected. Grass patio with grill and picnic table. Sites are shared with neighbor's patio on your patio side and back to back on opposite neighbor in an alternating parking pattern. FHU connections are close by. This is my second time here, which means it was good enough to return. Our rate is based on a monthly rate since we stayed for 5 weeks total. Electric is metered on long term site or a flat $90 fee for using a daily rate site for the month (which is what happened to us since no long term site were available during our stay. Office staff is super friendly. Easy access to Albuquerque and Santa Fe amenities. Cooler weather at almost 7000 feet elevation. - kihei7

Rating: 7 2 8 8 2 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We were looking for a short stay in Albuquerque while visiting family. This Park is mostly a Mobile Home Park, but still has quite a few RV Sites spread throughout the Park. This is the cleanest, most well kept, mobile home park we've ever stayed in. There was a laundry facility very near our spot, and the staff were very polite and helpful. We had a gravel spot, with picnic table and small tree. The entire Park streets are paved, and there is an outdoor pool available for use (we didn't use, as it had not opened for the summer). - Explorateurs
We stayed here the last 2 nights of Balloon Fiesta. We were told when we made reservations it was within walking distance. When we arrived I asked and was told, "Oh no, it's at least 2 miles. You'll want to drive." Site was between two run down mobile homes. There was a fence along the back with barbed wire. We were greeted by two barking dogs behind us and one to the right. We also had someone hammering on a car bumper for an hour on Sunday evening right across the street. Difficult to return after the balloon festival as the road was blocked to get to the village. Had to argue with an officer and drive around barriers. - StewartsD&A
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Coronado Village »Older mobile home park with sites interspersed for RV's. It is well kept, quiet, and clean. Sites are level gravel, with concrete walks and "patios". Some of the concrete is cracked and broken. No WIFI or cable. All utilities work well. Easy to get to from the freeway. Roads are wide and spaces east to maneuver into. Staff is friendly and helpful. Not "high end", but comfortable for a reasonable price. $15 based on monthly rate. - Pacatrader

Rating: 10 6 7 9 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We are members of Monaco International and this was rally-style dry camping at the West VIP lot just south of the launch field. Our club rate included 2 lunches, 2 breakfasts and appetizers at Social Hours. It's difficult to get into this lot unless you're a member of a group because of its location. Although we could see the balloons launching from our front window, we went down onto the field to get up close & personal. Generators are allowed except for "quiet hours" and water trucks & honey wagons could be utilized for a fee. THE place to be for Balloon Fiesta! A Balloon landed directly in front us in our Social Area between the Host Coaches! Ours was a 4-night package for $475 for the 2 of us. - monamonaco
We stayed here for the Balloon Fiesta, rate reflects 1/2 price for night prior to fiesta. Nothing but a gravel parking lot and they pack you in. We were told that 7000 campers were in the standard lot. No hook-ups, they did have porta potties and garbage cans. Our neighbor ran their generator non stop during the hours allowed. We stayed for 4 nights and were ready to leave. But it was a perfect spot to watch the balloons. We were in the 5th row because we got there a day early. We could walk to the fiesta grounds or stay by our camper. many balloons landed right on the grounds. Fiesta museum was worth seeing. - dalebonnie

Rating: 5 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Elks Lodge #2500 (Members Only) »Why did I list this? If you are coming to the Balloon Fiesta and like me like to leave a little time before I have to be somewhere that has a deadline this is a good place to stop. I planned on showing up the day before I was to check into my spot at the Balloon Fiesta. If you are an Elk, you almost always can find a spot to do this. This just happens to be a great place to stop as it is close to the Balloon Fiesta park. I called them and told them I just needed a place to park and they told me there was no issue even though they do not have RV facilities. As it turned out I could see the balloons go up in the distance and drove down to the river to see them even better. We dry camped in their lot for 2 nights. I ran the generator for AC power I need for my bi-pap machine. Had a few drinks and tacos as it was taco night at the Elks. The next day did a dry run to see the best way to get into the RV President's Compound and relaxed. Checking out how to get into the Balloon Fiesta was a good idea as the signage was not all that good. Left about 9 AM to go to the Presidents Compound and arrived about 10 AM. They let us park our rig shortly thereafter even though the published check-in time was noon. - Gilbert & Gail

Rating: 7 4 5 5 10 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: We were in Alburquerque for the Balloon Fiesta. This location is only 25 miles from the Fiesta and up in the Sandia mountain range. Really pretty area. The sites were plenty wide especially for us as we weren't there to be in the woods. We had no problem with obstacles. I work remotely and had no problem using their Wifi or our Verizon. Their prices are very good - especially with a military discount! They just built an off-leash dog area which is currently mostly dirt but still fun for the dog. We would stay here again if we come back to the area. - you-me-thedog-andcat
Our site was so narrow that our steps were literally protruding onto our neighbor's lot, and his slide-out was so close I could not walk between the trailers. Some lots were marginally larger, but I guess they hold them for larger rigs (which never came). They have new owners who are trying to improve the park, but not much can be done for the small lot sizes. They do have a pool and an off-leash area for dogs. The dirt roads caused a lot of dust in the air. My truck was covered in the morning. I will not use this park again. - RCH
