This RV parking area is only open for the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta during the first three weeks of October. They offer three different areas of camping = Dry, or 20-amp & W, or 30-amp & W close to balloon launch sight. We camped in the 20-amp & W area. Rally style parking = 500 RVs side by side in different sections of the park. The have portable toilets and no showers. The park offers a septic service ($) that will drive to your RV to empty your tanks. Sites were semi-level with gravel or dirt. We were within walking distance of the Balloon launch sight, they also have free shuttle buses to and from. Electric power is provided by 24 hour large generators, if you're next to one they are noisy. If you are arriving with a group, you all must enter at the same time to be parked together. The greatest thing this RV park offers is being close (walk to) the launch sight, otherwise the driving and parking to get there is terrible. Make your reservation very early (refundable) as this sells out 9 months in advance. WiFi is available at local coffee shops within 2 miles of RV park. The Balloon Event was fantastic, 350 balloon launch on weekends, fireworks, morning and night glow balloons. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Rate is for 4 people with KOA card. When we arrived we were disappointed and almost decided to leave and try the Bernalillo KOA. The surrounding area is low income urban and industrial. The park is a big, wind swept parking lot that didn't seem well maintained. We decided to give it a shot anyway. The park didn't seem to have the usual KOA amenities and we were shocked to see they had received the 2006 President's Award? The bathrooms were clean but outdated basic facilities. There were a few banana bikes locked up in a fenced cage. On the second day, we found the dog park which was actually very nice with a dog obstacle course. We chose this KOA since it was closer to Old Town Albuquerque but Old Town turned out to be very touristy. The Sandia Peak Tramway was great. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a park that is convenient to the interstate but not many attractions except grocery stores and RV dealers. The staff was friendly and helpful. The sites were quite narrow but no problems parking. However, it is greatly overpriced for what you get. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice park in town. Excellent for overnight stays in town. Sites are paved and very level, which helps with quick set-up. Water and sewer hook-ups are not close together, so have a couple of hoses ready for your water hook-up. Owners are on-site and accessible, so you feel a nice family prescense. Overall, thumbs up! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Concrete pads. Neat and clean. Near highway and easy to get to and fine, not too noisy. Nice area for walking dogs. Friendly people and assistance was helpful and available. Would stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

There's no scenery in this RV park. It's just a huge parking lot. not a much of a place to walk your dog. HOWEVER, the staffs were nice & friendly. Bathroom was clean and they had private shower. After long hours of driving it was a bonus to use their indoor hot tub to get rid of the muscle aches. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed here for just an overnight. It was clean and close to the highway. Not too much noise. We would stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Staff was very helpful and friendly. Although they had no cable, the antenna was plenty good for several local channels. The WiFi also worked very well. The park is very near I-40 but due to the retaining wall we couldn't hear any traffic. We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We recently spent a week at the Central KOA in Albuquerque. It was extremely clean and well run. We really liked the location. The park is close to all of the area attractions. It is one block from Route 66, and the ramp on to I-40 is nearby. We spent some afternoons swimming in the pool which was very, very clean. Security patrols were often and regular, and we felt safe and secure. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Rather expensive. Stayed a couple weeks while waiting for a space at a cheaper quiet park. Too close to freeway noise. Had problems connecting to the Wi-Fi. Good park for young families and those with pets. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice and clean park. The neighborhood was a little questionable, most people made sure to put things away at night. Nice pet walk, pool was very clean. Overall, a nice park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I will preface this review by saying this was our first stay at a KOA. I'm not a big fan of paved parking lots disguised as RV parks, and that's just what it is. The highway noise was very loud. Bathrooms were clean, but in need of updating. Easy highway access and weak wifi, but no cable. Spots are very close together and what would normally be grass is filled in with pea gravel. I thought this was park was overpriced. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We had a very enjoyable stay here. Our daughter wanted to have a birthday campout with some friends. Despite the heaviest rains we have seen here in about a year, we had a great time. The staff was exceptional, the campground was very clean. The proximity to the Interstate means a lot of road noise, which we were able to block out with a fan and the rain hitting the pop-up. The airport is also close by, but we did not really notice a lot of jet noise. The view of Sandia Peak was very nice. It is a little expensive compared to other KOA's we have stayed at, but we would stay here again for a short stay or an overnight. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Extremely helpful staff. Did not have any problem with interstate noise however evening winds were quite brisk on 2 of the 3 evenings we were there. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Park was very clean. Easy access off of I-40. Wireless internet best in a park I have used. highway noise not a factor. We used a pull through and no problem getting in or out. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here just for one night as a stopover. We never unhooked our trailer. The hosts were exceptional, they said they would be there for 7 months. Pool was excellent, hot tub was in a seperate enclosed area and was excellent. Putt putt golf was the nicest of any campgrounds we stayed. It looked just like the photo on their website. We mentioned that we were probably not going to unhook, and order pizza delivered. It wasn't long before the host came on his golf cart with the phone number of the local Pizza Hut. I would say this was the nicest KOA we stayed our entire trip. I gave it a 9 because we were given the impression that this was not a very safe area. But we are always cautious, wherever we go. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Very clean park. Will return next year. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park was clean and well kept, but the campground staff was rude and resistant to giving any information about local interests, including restaurants. Not a pleasant stay, will not return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The park was very well kept, however the sites were very close together. I had to back out of a pull through site because there was not enough room between rigs to turn out. Found it odd that a park such as this does not have cable tv. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. I felt the $55 rate, because of the balloon festival, to be a rip off as many others did. There were many empty sites our entire stay. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I really enjoyed our stay. Great staff. They kept the ground really clean! The park is easy to find, being so close to the Interstate. We didn't have much noise though, which was good. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Came in at 7:30 pm, self check-in with Credit Card, list of sites to choose from at checkin stand. Took awhile to find site, many streets and slots a little confusing in the dark. Grandson enjoyed playground, even with frozen water on the slides. Gravel road and slots, fairly level, close together but enough room for slide, clean but nothing to warrant the price which they have a chart for based on different hookups, number of persons in party, and pets. Going to find something cheaper for overnight stay on next trip. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was like parking in a kitty litter box. There is a lot of very, very small gravel around that gets tracked in everywhere. I believe it was also overpriced for the amenities. You are almost right next to I-40. The interstate travel noise is very bad, and this was with our dual pane windows which help reduce the noise. They allow pets, but the pet area is not very nice and right next to large garbage containers. The parking spots were also sort of narrow and the neighbors were right next to each other. Some people might like this "parking lot" atmosphere with rows of campers right next to each other, but we will probably not be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice KOA with great staff. They even gave us several brochures of things to do in the area. It is located far enough from the interstate we had very little traffic noise. The wifi was a little slow and the showers could have been a bit larger, but were very clean. The sites easily accommodated our 34 foot motorhome with a 16 foot trailer. Laundry was a nice convenience also. Cafe was good also........try the breakfast burritos. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A classic KOA, when we first arrived I almost pulled through and left due to location, but once inside the campground we were pleased. Great sites, friendly staff, excellent restrooms and the chef makes an INCREDIBLE green chili-sausage gravy (I recommend it on the pancakes). Also a clean pool and playground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here last year. The improvement that has been made to this park is great. The staff is very friendly. We will be back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Clean park. Easy for our 39' motorhome to navigate. Easy to locate. Close to great historical sites. Most of the full time residents were in another area. Dog "park" was very small. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice, friendly staff in this KOA. No problems at all. We stopped in on our way to California. We've been here before and will come again on our way through New Mexico. The breakfast in the morning is tasty. A nice change is the bathrooms and showers have been reworked completely, ALL NEW. Close to Sandia Mountain range and casino. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a normal KOA campground. We were passing through during the Balloon Festival and were lucky to get a site. The site we were given for our 30' Fifth Wheel was barely large enough for the trailer. We blocked the roadway when we pulled in and were unhooking. Had to park the truck behind the trailer and partially blocked the RV next to us. The personnel working at the park were very nice, helpful and accommodating. They had a real tough job at this time of the year. I will avoid Albuquerque during the balloon festival next time. I would stay here any other time. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Typical KOA, we've stayed here a few times when we just need a break from the city. They are laying cable TV lines right now so that new feature will be available soon. Men's restroom and showers will be renovated in a few months too. They are always working on improvements and the staff is very helpful, they helped me track down a minor electrical issue in our popup. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Over priced even after Good Sam discount for a very ordinary, old campground. The Wi-fi works well. We did not check any activities. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Called Albuquerque North by KOA, but about a 20-minute ride via freeway to the center of the city. Owners were fairly new, friendly and were working hard to remodel. Employees were extremely helpful and amiable. Landscape maintenance was always being performed. Pool had a retractable cover. During inclement weather, and at night, the pool is closed. The park offers free pancakes and coffee in the "snack shack" on the property, but the food provider is not associated with the owner and gets angry when additional (non free) food is not ordered. Stayed there 8 days but only did the free pancakes and coffee on the first day; it was too irritating. Free shuttle service to nearby Indian casino. Sites on level gravel. Many without shade. Would stay there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Clean, decent, noisy, and seriously overpriced. We camped here in a Motorhome.

General KOA. Nice, hard working staff they always appeared to be on the move. It is directly off the highway, I have read some people complain about highway noise, I heard none. I may be bothersome if you were in a tent. Nice pool, closed a little early though, pool closed at 8:00 with still an hour of daylight left. Sites are average for a KOA, not too close, but close enough to where you definitely had to speak to your neighbor, if you wanted to or not. Sites had picnic tables, fairly level on pea gravel. Free pancakes mornings, with sides at extra prices. My wife picked up pancakes for the myself and the kids while I made the rest. The initial reaction when we pulled in was kind of scary. The surrounding area looks questionable, to me, but once in and settle there were no problems. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed here one night while passing through Albaquerque. Very convenient to I-40. Some what costly for not having cable and charging for wireless internet. But they have a nice staff and we would stay here again. We stayed in our 5th wheel in June. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Park is next to freeway, but turning onto frontage road from northbound I25 is difficult for large rigs. Management is clueless, more often than not staffed by bubbleheaded teenagers. Rates are extremely high, but if you want amenities, this place has them. If you're looking for a place to pull off the road and just rest, this place is way overpriced and noisy. If you have kids, it may be the place for you; for serious RV'ers, I'd pass it by. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for 5 months. The park is in an excellent location. Access to I-25 is only about 2 blocks away and there are two casinos just minutes away. The price we paid monthly did include electricity. The park was being upgraded by the new owner during our entire stay. The park does offer a view of the Sandia Mountains, has plenty of shade trees, a pool, a cafe, cabins, pancake breakfasts, play areas for children and dancing every Friday and Saturday. This is a FUN place to be and if a bit of noise made by people having a great time bothers you than you might want to consider another RV park. We found the sites to be very adequate for our needs with plenty of space for our car. This is a very clean park. The hardworking staff is incredibly friendly and very helpful. The day we were leaving we discovered that we had a flat tire. The owner and two other staff members spent 2 hours in the heat helping us put the spare on our RV so that we could get to a garage to have the tire replaced. The owner and staff are great, the location is great and I would have given this park a ten if the pool hours and laundry hours were extended. Both close too early. Having stayed in all of the parks in Albuquerque and surrounding areas, this is the best park overall. We will definitely be staying at this park again in the future. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We wanted a campground close to Albuquerque to try out our new pop-up camper, and this KOA was our first choice based on proximity to our home. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. After arriving at our site, I couldn't get the propane pilot to light, and there were two sewer connections at the site, so I was not certain which one I should use. The host came right over to the site with me and happily helped me through the connections and answered some other questions that I had. The campground itself was smaller than some we have stayed at in the past, but it was very clean and had plenty of shaded sites. Our daughter enjoyed the playground (unfortunately the pool wasn't open yet) very much. The free pancake breakfast in the morning was very nice too, with very friendly staff that made the family feel right at home. The restrooms were clean and so were the showers. The only reason I gave this a 9 instead of 10 is simply because compared to other KOA campgrounds that we have tented at in the past, there are a couple that we liked better. We enjoyed our stay and we would certainly stay at the Albuquerque North KOA again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

As a campground it was ok and clean. Management was not friendly, not rude, just there. Our biggest gripe was the price for a overnite stay. Next time we will do Wal-Mart. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Quite a few Long Term folks stay here and they have most of the better spots. The campground is off I-40, north of Abuquerque about 20 miles. Sites are narrow and not terribly level and have little seperation with minimal landscaping. We camped here in a camper.

A very nice park. Super friendly staff, free daily Continental Breakfast, free wi-fi, large pull throughs. We stayed here 3 nights and found it comfortable. Very pet friendly. The park is located a few miles west of Albuquerque on the 40, and about a mile east of Camping World. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is our favorite park when visiting the Albuquerque area; professionally run, nicely landscaped, and fairly priced. We took advantage of the stay four nights/get one free which makes the stay very reasonable. Free Wi-Fi worked well, good cable, and the free "continental" breakfast are great touches. Road noise is noticeable at night but not too bad if running the air or fan and being close to I-40 allows easy access to town. A great park, we'll stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great RV Park. Clean, spacious, and all of the services work as advertized. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

What a find. We were very pleased with this park. The staff is the best that we have encountered in 2 years of full-timing. The sites are somewhat short, making it difficult to park your tow but this is greatly outweighed by the rest of our experience. Convenient to town but far enough out to avoid congestion. Will definitely stay here again and recommend to others. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was a very nice campground...as nice as we've stayed in. We would definitely stay here again. The campground was clean, the sites were large enough with some nice size trees, and the WiFi worked. It was convenient off the interstate (yes, some noise) but the park made up for it. Our dog was delighted to have grass to potty in and the site was also level. They have a great 'store' with groceries and nice trinkets to take home. The free breakfast included waffles, cereal, bagels, etc. The pool closed at 7:00 pm. Breakfast is from 8-10. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park is great! Everything is nice, clean, and safe. The free continental breakfast was good too. The staff was very friendly and even gave our daughter a few extra minutes to swim in the pool because we had just arrived. We liked this park so much that we made it a destination on our way back through New Mexico. We will no doubt stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed here for an overnight on our way to AZ. A nice campround right off I-40. All sites are paved and level, although somewhat short. We had just enough room for a 25 ft TT and fullsize truck. They have a nice pool and playground. The restroom and showers were nice. They had good Wi-Fi, although they only permit one connection per site. They have a free continental breakfast in the morning, which is a nice touch. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Price was a little steep, or I would have given it an 8. Friendly office staff, and Bill led me right to our spot on the golf cart. Decent-sized pull through, concrete is showing its age and is breaking apart/coming up in places. Very little grass, mostly large gravel/rocks where there is not concrete. Everything about this park is aging, the picnic table at our spot was barely worth sitting on (though I did see nicer tables at other sites). Good water pressure, and excellent 50 amp power. The dog run appears to consist of a big dirt lot that had a semi truck and a bunch of junk in it, I didn't even open the gate and explore it any further after seeing that. The continental breakfast was a nice offering, it featured good food. We stayed for one night passing through. I would stay again, probably not on a long-term basis but it is OK to use for a night. I would have felt better about staying there had the price been about $15 less. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park west of the city. Paved level sites with enough room between sites. Staff very friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast every morning. There is some road construction that makes getting off the interstate and onto the frontage road somewhat difficult. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great value describes this professionally run campgrounds. A well maintained and well staffed campgrounds with concrete pads at site along with grass and trees. Sparkling restrooms and a two clean laundry rooms. Continental breakfast included. Only one mile from Camping World. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Nice park, lots of spaces. Good paved roads and easy access to sites. Pool and spa were closed when we visited (too bad). Wireless signal was low and we had some difficulty connecting. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This RV park is excellent in all regards, except for the incredible Highway 40 noise. Wow. You hear every 18 wheeler and diesel rig going East. If you have a motorhome with a bedroom that is pretty isolated you will be fine - but NOT with a trailer with a window above the bed. Would I stay there again - not with my current rig. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Paved roads, easy access with our 40 footer. Sites were level and clean. The free WiFi worked well for us. Their free breakfast included hot waffles, bagels, toast, cereal, OJ, coffee and more all served in an excellent facility by very friendly folks. This is a first class operation. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is what a campground should be like. Very clean, good sites, great friendly staff, clean and ample room. Trees near the sites aren't intrusive. Free Wi-Fi is fast and reliable. They have a free continental breakfast every day and organize frequent events for the campers. My only complaint is that the dog park was nothing more than dirt. I definitely recommend this park to others and will return again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The staff at this park is extremely helpful and friendly. One of the best. Having said that, the park and amenities are also very nice. We reserved a back-in site which was a little short for a 30' trailer and tow vehicle, making it neccessary to unhook the truck and park it at an angle. We will make it a point to stay at this park again, but we will reserve a pull-through site. The rate indicated was for a back-in site with Good Sam discount. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice park. Typical for commercial RV park. Nice paving and free continental breakfast. A few long term but very clean and neat. Also a gift shop available. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We full time and travel a lot for our business. This is a GREAT place to stay. In the Southwest many of the parks, in this price range, are dusty and just a place to park. The staff and management seem to go out of their way to make this place special. Best laundry we have seen in a long time. 5 thumbs up. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Who cares about extra vegetation (it really is landscaped very well) when you can stay in a campground with level concrete pads, full hookups, free WI-FI, cable, clean,etc. This is our second time to stay here, and we drove an extra long time coming from the Grand Canyon to make this campground for two nights. Staff are friendly and helpful. Will be back to American RV. It is excellent. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

We stayed in this very nice park on our shakedown run with our new used 5th wheel. The park was very accommodating with our reservation and escort to site, even though we arrived shortly after the office was closed. The site was long enough for our 37' fifth wheel plus long bed crew cab pickup. Check their map for sites with an extra parking place included! The park was clean and well maintained. The landscaping is very nice considering the arid location. Unfortunately the wind blew horribly the entire time that we were there so we did not explore the facilities as much as we might have otherwise. The park was well run and quiet. Even though it is fairly close to I-40 we did not notice significant traffic noise. There is a good place to walk your dogs, although there are some goathead (puncture vine) stickers to watch out for. It is very close to the Route 66 Casino, which has a decent buffet and reasonable diesel fuel. The FJ Truckstop is even closer at the Unser exit (the next exit to the east). This is definitely the best facility in Albuquerque. I would have rated it higher had it not been in a very desolated area with little vegetation, but then this is New Mexico! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Easy access from I-40 with very adequate room on interior roads for large rigs. Quick check in with very friendly and helpful employees. Sites are mostly level but somewhat short. Utilities are located at the back of site causing difficulty in hooking up. Sewer connection is about 6 in. off ground making dumping very difficult. All areas of the park were very clean and well kept. Some road noise is noticeable from the interstate. Wi-Fi is very slow. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We have stayed in this park once before about four years ago. We find it to be much better than most in this area. Sites are nicely landscaped and level.Sites are a little short for longer units so you do have to drop your car.Good wifi and cable---picnic table and concrete pad. Staff seemed to be friendly and helpful.Laundry area was clean and everything worked well. The breakfast was well attended and had several offerings. Easy acess off I 40 but it is west of town about 10 miles.The pool was closed for the season and the spa was closed indefinetly for repairs according to the sign in the office during our stay. We would saty again in this park We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were here almost 2 months--the "rate" was based on their monthly rate. Since we were here a while, the distance from town was not convenient. Overall the staff was friendly, but some were not (I guess that is expected when you have so many work-campers; there were a lot!--when I wanted to fill up with propane I checked into the office to let them know and they said someone would be right out. I was near the fill tank, but waiting for the person to come out and guide me the remaining 6 feet. I waited 20 minutes and went back in to find out when they would come out--the guy said "I'm not coming out there until you pull all the way into the fill station." Probably just me, but I thought that was not called for.). The monthly rate does not include the free continental breakfast. We have dogs and (natural for New Mexico) there were tons of stickers anywhere they could walk. The sites were level and not too close together. We are full-timers and were not sure how long we planned to stay, but were told that we could not check in without providing a departure date--so we made one up. The wi-fi was free when we arrived, but then they started charging for it. The service was intermittent--it constantly went down and kicked me off line. When we complained to the staff, they commented that it was noise and that was just the way it is with wi-fi. The Thanksgiving potluck in the clubhouse was a nice touch--they provided the turkey! We would stay here again. Even though it was a bit out of town, it seemed to be the nicest park in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We did not experience the rude people previously mentioned in reviews, in fact all of the staff were friendly and very helpful. The water connection is in the ground and very difficult to connect. The sites are short and have high curbing which makes it extremely difficult to maneuver with a tow. I scrapped my dolly on the curbing and damaged the stripping mechanism when leaving. You will have to unhook your tow because it will stick out in the road. Be careful when entering from I-40, as it is easy to miss the turn onto the frontage road and you will wind up back on I-40. The breakfast room was very clean and the breakfast was mediocre but it was free, so not much to complain about. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We used this park for an
