Riana - Abiquiu Lake

The place is beautiful. The campsite was well-maintained. We reserved a group shelter and we had a very comfortable stay.

Book ahead of time, but regardlless- all sites are well maintained. Awesome hosts too!

We got to the campsite just in the nick of time. The campground closes at 10pm and we had a long haul to get there. We were in a handicapped spot since I am impaired after spine surgery. The spot was spacious and pretty flat...we are in a camper and my husband didn't have to disconnect for the night. The host, who was right next door, was helpful and friendly. In the morning we awoke to a beautiful view out over the campground and down to the lake. Trash is collected at the sites, so it was nice to have a trash can available without heading to a dumpster. Everything was perfect, but we weren't surprised since we've been at the campground before.

Extremely helpful camp host, well maintained campground. It was nice to stop in a place that had showers when I've been on my motorcycle touring around for a week.

There's not much access to the lake for fishing.
Mostly the boat ramp area and a few steep areas along the cliffs. Fishing near the Rio Chama River was pleasant.

The campground is very well maintained and totally safe. I camp alone, and the hosts Cindy and Al are just awesome people! Toilets are clean, dogs are on leashes, and they drive around the campground several times a day to make sure everyone is happy! The views of the lake are amazing, and the evenings are quiet and beautiful. They even have lectures on Saturday night by local park rangers! Last night it was about local geology and dinosaurs. I’ve stayed there twice, and plan to come again!

Wonderful campground with a gorgeous view of Abiquiu Lake and Cerro Pedernal. My only complaint, as in many campgrounds these days, the full bathroom facilities always seem to be near where the RVs are hooked up and the tent campers get the old vault toilets. Kind of ironic. (Yes, we are still tent camping in our 70's!!)
Perfect place to stay if you love Georgia O'Keeffe. You see the environment which inspired her. Easy access to Ghost Ranch and her home and studio. The Sierra Negra Cafe has delicious food at a reasonable price. (Great for vegetarians.)
So glad we spent a few days exploring this area.

We just camped in Abiquiu because our friends, Harry and Venche, used to host at this cg. and they now live in Abiquiu and so we visited with them and also went into Sante Fe, which is only a hour or so away. Went shopping and rode the Rail Runner on Wed. to Alb. and back. This is such a quiet cg and a very relaxing place to be. The only thing I might want would be to have Wifi while there. Other than that, we will go back again and again. It's been 23 years that we have been going there. My husband passed away 2 yrs and 8 mos. ago, but I got a smaller camper and keeping up the tradition. My handicapped daughter, 54, is always with me and she loves camping. Lucy King

Well maintained, quiet and showers in the bathhouse. Nice campground.

The best cared for campground anywhere! Pleasant to stay here as the rules are enforced, making the experience positive for all. Great “home base” for exploring the surrounding area.
