Santa Fe KOA Journey | Santa Fe, NM RV Park

Great location just outside of Santa Fe. The sites are spacious and we LOVED the option of a Paw Pen site. We travel with 3 large dogs so having a private fenced area for them where we could also hang out was a treat!! The staff who checked us in and escorted us to our site were wonderful. They will even deliver ice, firewood and pizza directly to your site! If we ever come to this area again, this is the only place we would consider staying. Highly recommend!!

Wonderful friendly helpful staff.  This KOA was lovely.  There was a huge adobe patio with benches, tables and grills.  The bathrooms were clean with nice showers, and plenty of light!

My wife and I, along with our two dogs, stayed at the Santa Fe KOA in December 2025. The folks in the office were very nice and made us feel welcome. They even set us up with a site that had its own mini dog park with artificial turf, patio chairs and fire pit - all in fantastic condition. Highly recommend this RV park, particularly if you have dogs. Shower and restroom facilities were very nice and clean.

Great RV park! Beautiful area, clean and level lots. Laura and Alan are extremely helpful and friendly. Quiet and serene.
Our dogs enjoyed the large dog park.
Definitely a place we will come back to!

We stayed for one night but wanted to stay longer! Had difficulty getting a reservation and finally got one but was unable to extend. About 15 minutes from Santa Fe Plaza with shops, museums, churches and great dining. Hosts were excellent, and was a quiet campground right off the interstate.  We had a KOA patio site next to the dog park and was fantastic - nice wooded and grass site which was good for our small dog. Lovely campground and will definitely come back!

KOAs are consistently quality lodging, but this one exceeded my expectations with the mindfulness in the layout and gathering areas. Didn't think a good thing could get better, but it did. Highly recommend Santa Fe and will stay there again on future visits.

Do not stay here if you are a woman traveling alone or with children. It is not safe. One of their employees acted completely inappropriately and the entire staff including the owner was quick to double down, stick together and reassure me that he’s “a really good guy, he’s a retired police officer.” Personally rationalizing inappropriate behavior and touting that you have an in with the police (ie if something happens you as the guest have no recourse) does not make me feel safe, and no amount of weak apologies can convince me otherwise. I would want a warning about this place before bringing my child here from out of town, and that’s why I’m posting. I don’t want to get into the full story because I’m sick of thinking about it, but I feel compelled to warn other women.

I had a great stay at the Santa Fe KOA. The deluxe cabin was clean, cozy, and perfect for my first solo trip.  I felt very safe the whole time. Susan gave me a warm welcome & tour of the campground, and David was kind enough to bring firewood to my cabin so I didn't have to carry it. Perfect base for exploring Santa Fe & all the nearby parks. Fellow campers were friendly, and quiet. Everyone was really respectful to not be too loud. Would 100% stay again.

This was our first KOA experience and it was phenomenal! The staff was so kind and helpful, the location is perfect for Santa Fe AND Pecos. The campground was so clean and nice. Kids will have a blast with all the extras! We will be back!

Beautiful KOA just 9 miles north of Santa Fe and just off Interstate 25 on Old Las Vegas Trail. Every little detail for a visit has been thought thru. Spotless clean restrooms, grounds and facilities. Well stocked store and excellent team working the park.  I highly recommend.

Very rude.. beautiful place. Couldn't have been more I hospitable

We stayed at Santa Fe NM KOA in March 2022.  The campsite is under new ownership and it shows.  The owners were very attentive and the camp was clean and facilities were very nice.  We highly recommend it!!

Great KOA.
My only complaint is about the laundry room.
The welcome package that we received when we checked in said that the laundry is open 24h. When we went to do our laundry at 9pm, the door was locked and there was a sign at the door that says the laundry closed at 6 or 4pm and only opens at 9am.
Also, the price for laundry is way more expensive than most locations. $3.25 or $4 per load depending on the machine that is available.
Other than that, it is a great park especially if you have kids. Lots of activities.
