What Guests Are Saying
Gallo Campground at Chaco Canyon offers a beautiful, serene experience with well-maintained facilities, including clean restrooms and potable water. Campers appreciate the stunning night skies and the opportunity to explore significant historical sites with fewer visitors. While some campers noted issues with noise from others and a lack of privacy between sites, the overall atmosphere is peaceful, and many look forward to returning for another stay.

Site 15 was excellent for our 26 foot RV that was pulled by a F150 Ford. There was sufficient room, site is flat. Seeing Chaco cultural NHP was a treat—one full day is sufficient. The 14 mile drive in and out was horrible and our RV took a beating. The road was washboard ALL THE WAY! We drove at <15mph, often 7mph, and still so much damage to the rv. Broken linen closet door, valances on the floor, spare tire rack broken, and so much dust. Chaco is amazing just wish we would have parked it out on 550.

Road in is quite rough 1hr 45 min each way to tow our trailer in...that was a mistake. Potable water at the dump station in the camp ground, water spigot at visitors centre is broken. WiFi limited at visitors centre no cell or wifi in camp ground. Bathrooms clean and stocked. Hiking and ruins are amazing and definitely worth the drive in an adventure van or truck camping. If you hike up towards new Alto we had 5G thru Verizon towards the top.

I cannot believe that this road is affiliated with a national monument. We had to turn around halfway to Chaco due to all the expensive damage to our trailer, inside and outside. What a rip off. You should not be selling campsites to this NM without warning people that it will destroy their trailers. There were other trailer parts along the road, so it wasn’t just us. What an embarassment to call this a national monument.

Like most NPS campgrounds, they pack a lot of sites in. Still this is Chaco. The quiet and stars are amazing.

Gallo is a great place to camp, except that there's no shade. We ended up cooking dinner and hanging out at the covered picnic tables overlooking Fajada Butte to get out of the sun and wind. There are also covered tables near the Visitor's Center. But don't let that stop you. It's such a special place with access to an ancient civilization and great hikes.
