We found some of the cheapest diesel we have seen in quite a while at a Gas Station next to the Tribal Welcome Center on Hwy 4 coming in from Santa Ynez, it was $3.81 and regular was $3.31 a gal. Quiet State Park about 8 miles north of Jemez Springs to the turnoff (126) for Fenton Lake State Park. The road coming into the park is dirt with some pot holes. It’s about ¾ of a mile to the campground and you will pass the lakes day use area with parking and restrooms. Situated in a pine forest at an elevation of 7,900 ft. there are 6 electric/water sites in a wagon wheel configuration all facing towards the hub. It’s hello neighbor!!! with no privacy. The sites are fairly level in the hookup sites. No problems with the power and very good water pressure. This park is not big rig friendly but we were able to get in with our 38’…. but we did have to leave going back out the entrance to the campground. It’s a tight turn otherwise if you try to leave out the exit. It wasn’t a problem for us to get out. No cell or aircard signal here! We were able to get a satellite signal with our dome satellite which surprised us since we were in the trees. There’s a small lake (37 acres) for watching the wildlife, fishing/boating, picnics or just hanging out with a good book. There are more developed sites (37) without hookups down the road past the turn off for the hookup sites. Not all of the sites are level so bring blocks. We did see some nice campsites that were away from the rest giving you very good privacy. All of the sites have BBQ rings and tables with Loop C having water. There are NO shower facilities here... We enjoyed our stay and found the surrounding area to be very interesting with lots of things to explore. The town of Jemez Springs has a couple of restaurant/bars with outside dining. Numerous galleries with pottery, jewelry, Indian dolls etc. Side roads take you through some very beautiful areas. Great stay at the park and had fun exploring the area. Will probably be back again since we love New Mexico and spend lots of time traveling their roads. The normal rate for an electric site is $14.00 or $4.00 if you hold an annual camping pass. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Jemez Falls is a Us Forest Service campground. The sites are first come, first served and vary in size from suitable for a pop-up trailer to easily capable of handling a large Class "A". Most are well shaded and well spaced. An on-site host is very helpful with site selection and area info. The hike to the actual falls is brief and enjoyable. Fresh water spigots are not threaded -- so come with fresh water tank full. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
