Great Stop on our way West from Texas. Nice and Quiet. We enjoyed riding our bikes around the park.

Cochiti lake & campgrounds never fail! Such a peaceful, beautiful gem. Campgrounds are clean, some have hookups. Dump sites are easily accessible. Bring your bicycle & ride across the dam it's a great spin with amazing scenery!

Very nice grounds, great view, mostly well kept up. However, a fair amount of trash around the area, park lighting mostly did not work, and the community bathroom would have been better off just being closed rather than being open in the condition it was in. Hopefully they will tend to some of the matters. I'd like to stay there again.

The restrooms had toilets plugged and were not clean. Just terrible shape. Been coming here for years, this was really bad. Intolerable smell.

This campground is beautiful in all respects. Clean and well-maintained. The sites are large (if not particularly level) and many have lovely views of the lake.

Beautiful recreation area. No wake boating, fishing and swimming. There always seemed to be a nice breeze. Sites were spacious and tiered on a hill so there were views at every site. Went to sleep listening to the coyotes howl after sunset. Showers were pretty warm, certainly warm enough and bathrooms were clean. There's a gas station and laundromat a minute from the entrance and the local golf course has a small restaurant with great burgers.

Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
