This was a really nice campground. As typical for COE campgrounds, this one is on a lake with great views

Reccomended by a friend. Spent 5 night in the Ringtail Loop (Dry Camp). Explored the area and got a chance to score tickets Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument.

The site was clean and new and efficient to use. The bathrooms were clean.
During our stay the women's bathroom and shower were locked with no explanation and no camp host to approach. We never saw a camp host the entire stay. I had to use the men's bathroom while my husband stood guard to ensure that a man did not come in while using the toilet and shower.

Austere NM-style landscape for family-sized fun, boating, swimming, paddleboarding, fishing and definitely wind surfing as there is almost always a stiff breeze.

Still need to fix the toilet at the Buffalo loop mens room. Maybe stop spending money on new park vehicles and hire a plumber?

Campground is very well constructed and laid out. We had hoped to fish, but the blue-green algae was very heavy. Hiking trails were good and the cell service was exceptional.

Restroom in the Ringtail loop needs a good scrubbing. The floor was grungy.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
