The campground was nice and spaced out. It was close to great walkable hikes and beautiful areas like Valles caldera.

Great campground. Quiet and clean (restrooms and area around campsites). Nice that you can hook up with trails to the falls and McCauley springs right out of the campground. Love this place. 5 stars for this.
One real big hassle was paying for the site. The only choice was a QR code at the entrance. Downloading the app and paying took more than 30 minutes because very spotty internet service. We had 1 bar or less at the location of the payment station. That was very frustrating and we almost gave up without paying because there was no other option. When we were finally able to get through there was no option to put in our Senior Pass number (as you can do on the regular Recreation.gov website). Therefore, we paid $10 more per night than expected because of that issue. And of course Recreation.gov gives you no way to try to address the payment situation. Frankly, the paper-based campsite payment system took 2 minutes and was very clear and easy. The QR payment system is terrible. I am not sure I'd come to the campsite again unless it is planned and I could pay on the website rather than the app. 1 star for this aspect of the experience.

Jemez falls was a great place for our trip to experience the national forest. We were able to go to Las Alamos and the nearby hot springs. The camp site provided enough space and distance from nearby campers to give us privacy. A short hike to Jemez falls the second morning was amazing. The rain the previous week may have contributed to the falls. We would stay in Jemez falls campground again.
