Weekends were very busy and I could not sleep. Some people staying up until 2 in the morning or starting their generators early in the morning.
Camper support is limited or non existent. Bathrooms were generally clean but not always.
This is an ideal place for during the week or off season. It is way too busy on weekends or holidays and is a terrible place to be at those times.

Nice lake and not crowded during the week. Electric worked good and the water was not too far away at the spot I picked. The price as always, was right for a stay at a nice place with water and electricity. The lake looked inviting but I didn't swim.

Nice area, close to the lake, close to golf course and it was an easy drive from Albuquerque. We had power hookup which was nice. There is water close by.

The campsite was beautiful. Wish there was direct access to the lake. The sites are close together so we could hear everything the next site up was saying. No shade trees so nothing to put a hammock on. Lots of millipedes which we enjoyed watching. Camp check-in was helpful and nice to chat with.

Very nice rV park! However, the volunteer host was absolutely not up to the job. Nobody was answering the phone. Her comment was that she blocked numbers she didn’t recognize. Seems she felt she just got “free room & board”. Should really screen volunteers better and provide better supervision.

- 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.
