Rancheros de Santa Fe RV Resort

We had a great experience at this campground. The front desk service was impeccable. Very nice people and I stress it. Our campsite was great, bathrooms were clean and laundry room was pretty decent. We were there a little before the season started so it wasn’t crowded yet, allowing plenty of privacy, which we enjoy. Also the campground is dog-friendly and all dogs we encountered were well behaved. We thoroughly enjoyed our two-nights stay 🙂

3 stars because the people I dealt with in person were nice. This is not a big rig friendly park (we have a 38' fifth wheel). There are sites that fit you but the windy narrow roads to get to spots are not ideal, especially if you are not experienced. I'm not sure how some people got their diesel pushers in to spots. The majority of the park is on the hillside. We booked a site and we're called and told it would not fit us (website said it would) . Not a problem, she rebooks us. We get there and the site they moved us to is not possible without hanging up the whole rig. We would have torn off our stabilizers. A very nice lady moved us to another spot and luckily no one was beside us so that I could park my truck there. One day the power and well pump were shut off because the power company was doing pole work. I called up to ask if they knew what the plan was on the well since we had just emptied our tank and everything had already been off for half a day. I was told about the meeting they had with the line crew going over the plan to shut the park down. But the park then never let us know? We could have topped off our tanks and got the generator going so my work wasn't cut off during calls. Again, whoever I talked to on the phone was nice but not a good customer experience at all. The spot we were in had trees/ bushes cut down at some time in the past but stumps were left anywhere from 4-6" high. I tripped over them a few times setting up/taking down. Black tank cover was just broken off and sitting on the pipe. Electric panel cover was barely hanging on with the light cover broken off it. "Aged" is a description I saw others use and I'd agree. People with smaller rigs may enjoy some of the treed spots. Hopefully the friendly folks they have working there will get a plan to improve the park. Pretty quick drive to get in to Santa Fe. Quiet for the most part. Priced high for what it was.

Lots of space between sights, much larger than most private campgrounds, most RV sights have trees and bushes between them. Beautiful location and scenery. Christi in the office was very friendly and helpful even after hours. Very relaxing and quiet location. Easy to get to from the highway but far enough that there was little traffic noise audible in the campground. The campground had a natural feel in that the campsites were gravel and dirt and some leveling of RV is required. Bathroom, shower and laundry in excellent condition. Obvious upgrades have been done to include new water and electric hookups and new propane refill station was being set up when we were there.

Full time traveler here @whatrvdoing - We only got to spend a week in Santa Fe. I'll tell you it lives UP to the hype. The campground was only 20 mins from town. We were able to visit so many sites and checkout the local dig because of this. We also cruised over to Bandelier National Monument. Definitely a must do if you're in the region. K Bueno tacos for the win if you're hungry.

We camped in our travel trailer here while on vacation. This is a beautiful park. It's peaceful and quiet. The sites are spacious and there is vegetation in between each site so there is some privacy. The people in the office were very nice. There is a trail to walk your dog on. The park is close to everything. The first day we got here it actually snowed. It was magical seeing the snow from inside of our camper, And I got the most beautiful photos walking around the park the next morning. We saw some awesome sunsets from the park. I highly recommend staying here.

I have to give this place a generous 3 stars & I’ll tell you why. Pros: -Staff is friendly. I really appreciated their level of customer service. -The location of the park is excellent. It’s just far enough from Santa Fe to feel rural. But close enough to Santa Fe where it isn’t a chore to travel there. Cons: -The advertised WiFi doesn’t exist. From our site we couldn’t even find it. -Un-level, unkept sites. Bring blocks. They are overgrown, & tight. We encountered a snake which is fine but, it would’ve been easier to spot if the site was well groomed. I’ve attached a picture of our “complimentary” picnic table to show you just how bad it is. -Bathrooms & laundry room need updating. They are very old & even though they do get cleaned. They aren’t really functioning. Only half of the dryers work. -There are two random Rottweilers that roam around the park (pictured) I brought this up to the staff & I do think they are trying to figure out how to block them from coming into the park but, it’s just concerning overall. I couldn’t walk my cat. I do hope they resolve that soon. Guest safety is important. Overall the price doesn’t match what you actually receive. If this place was $15-20 bucks cheaper a night…would be a better value & you’d get what you pay for.

Our spot had full hookups, backing up to a pretty busy street. The park is pretty big and offers different accommodations: RV, tent, cabins. Good Verizon and T Mobile service. There is a dog park, pool and walking trails available.

Very clean little cabin for a fantastic price. Close enough to go into Santa Fe every day, yet out of the way and quiet. Comfortable beds with clean linens, mini-split for temperature. Clean bathrooms near the office, and a cute Tiny Theater. We came during cold weather and didn't use the pool. Fantastic gem!
