Santa Fe National Forest

Clean and close to Albuquerque. Beautiful pine trees that give sufficient shade and it’s very quiet. Love it!

Great campground. Sites are well maintained and have a good tent pad.

The grounds were clean and well kept with fresh asphalt. My site, number 5, was so level I did not have to use leveling blocks. The pit toilets were clean. It was nice to be at such a "developed" site that had no water, sewer, or electricity. It made my first "self contained" trip nice and now I feel more comfortable trying some dispersed sites in the future.

Our campsite (#4) was infested with bees/wasps. We were unable to stay the night. Had to leave after 2 hours.

Truly outstanding camp hosts this year. This is the finest campground in New Mexico.

The reason I mark this a poor experience has nothing to do with the conditions of the campground as a whole. The weather turned out to be very warm and, unfortunately, for the second time this summer, we were swarmed by yellow jackets the whole 4 days. The yellow jacket traps I brought were some help but the insects seemed desperate for water and landed in every dish or bowl and on every water bottle. They swarmed our food while we tried to eat. I got stung within the first 20 minutes and my partner was stung twice before the trip was over. We were so determined to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and the majestic Ponderosas that we stuck it out and found ways to cope. We're giving it another try for the season in September but I have promised myself that if it is as challenging as this trip, I will just leave. If either of us had been allergic to yellow jacket stings, it would have been a very dangerous situation and we would have been forced to leave immediately. Truly I have never seem them so bad.
