We were there early before picnic tables were out and all repairs hadn’t been made. We were there with friends to visit the surrounding areas. It gets windy so be prepared don’t leave things out that can blow away. The lake is really low. We really enjoyed our visit.

Solid Campsite with plenty of options and a nice trail that goes down to the lake. Recommend the Ringtail loop.

This was a wonderful campground with hot showers, water & electric hookups!
Easy to access the Kasha Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument.

We stayed at Juniper Loop site 16 for 3 nights and really enjoyed our time there, it was quiet the whole time we were there and had no issues to speak of. We noticed crews were working on improvements throughout the campground including new water and electrical connections and dump stations. There are no sewer connections at sites, however there are dump stations available at different areas throughout the campgrounds including the area where we were staying which we did use on our way out. On Juniper loop some reviews mentioned having to bring 100’ of water hose to share spigots between sites, that is no longer the case as each site now has its own water and electrical connections.

I liked Cochiti alot, more trees than I thought there would be and since it was April, pretty quiet. I would definitely camp there again.

- 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.
