The beach was not open, which was the entire point of reserving for several days with my grandchildren. The only access to the water was dangerous, full of rock and goatheads, we stayed less than one hour on one day, even though we reserved for three.

Campsites are nice and quiet. I wish the lake was open longer during the summer hours for later fishing and swimming.

This was a pleasant campground. Our ring was nice. Soap and toilet paper were not replenished the week we were there, so bring your own.

it was a very pleasant surprise. Made a reservation on a day of traveling as we changed our planes and decided to stop by Santa Fe. Campground is simply wonderful. Sites are huge, spread out, plenty of space for everyone. Relatively short distance to Santa Fe and the interstate. Gorgerous views of the lake from every site. I have absolutely nothing to complain about.

Policies & Rules
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.
