We drove by this KOA today, and it does not appear that it is there anymore. There are new hotels being built on the site. We do not know if it is operational in another location, but there is currently no listing for it on the KOA website. Just be sure to check before trying to stay here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is basically a graveled parking lot: great for one night with the basics. The pet areas are sorely lacking: all large gravel, hot in the day for dog's paws. Fine for a night if you don't want to boondock. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Grounds loosely managed (as in someone may not take personal interest in the care of the park and it's appearance?). Price quotes do not remain consistent throughout price inquiry conversation [excessive hidden monthly rate fees are added on in later in conversation of $50 (winter "tax") and $78 (summer "tax") after initial price quote, making summer rates nearly exactly the same as winter...when asked to clarify, it was restated to a second time as I have placed it was here...so there is some confusion encountered].

I know every KOA in the country is by a railroad track, freeway or both but this is ridiculous!!! Who put together the plot plan for this mess??? None of the fixtures are even close to convenient or even traditional locations. The slabs and tables are clear on the other side of where they should be and surrounding by the other sites fixtures, to hook up electric I had to run my cord further than I have ever had to before and stay centered in a slot that was suppose to fit a 38' M/H. The front and rear are sticking out on either side. I did not even try to hook up sewer and water. We came in here without our leveling jacks working and asked for a level pad. I am leaning at least 5 degrees to the driver's side. I thought Rock Springs, WY KOA was bad, unbelievable! And charged $40 for this sorry parking space to boot! The whole place is dirt and gravel and the road between the spaces is a mud trucker's dream! Very, Very Poor! Denny's is close as stated by others, but considering the quality of the food, so what. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park has gone steadily downhill since we first stayed here 4 years ago. It is a relatively new park, but the owners appear to have done little or nothing to keep up the park. When we arrived, we were greeted by a sandwich bag of dog waste on the concrete picnic table pad, with a small pile of trash also on the pad which had clearly been here awhile. There was loose garbage around the dumpster, the adjacent site had a bag of garbage sitting out, and no attempt had been made to clean up the small, fenced-in dog walk areas. When we spoke with staff, the response was, "Well, the customers made the mess." However, one staff member did walk out and pick up the garbage in our site and the adjacent one. Sites are gravel and level, and a little small in length, but acceptable. With a minimal amount of effort and expense, this could be a nice overnight spot or a place to stay for a few days while in the area. However, in its present state, we will definitely not return. We should add that after we returned home, we reported the situation to the corporate KOA office. Shortly thereafter, the owner of the park did contact us by email and said that he would make more of an effort to keep the place clean. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This KOA is being developed on the same grounds as a new LaQuinta Inn - a Sleep Inn and Denny's were nearby and of the same style architecture. All sites are rock but that's expected in the Southwest. We keep being reminded that what we think of as a level site isn't what's available - flat doesn't mean level for making sure refrigerators, etc. run correctly. The bathrooms and shower stalls were individualized and nice, but rather far from most campsites. We did not notice much road noise, but were right off I-40. They supposedly had 2 dog runs, but the longer of the two wasn't totally fenced. The young man who took my phone reservation and checked me in was less than enthusiastic about his job and was hard to understand. We camped here in a Motorhome.

IN A NUTSHELL: GO TO THE COMPETITOR Read THIS bizarre story: The 50 AMP service was not working properly. My husband went to the office to report the problem and he was told that he was lying. Yes, that’s right. No offer of a different site in the half empty park, and no willingness to even go to the power station and look at the problem. Why? Because, he said, “There are no problems with any of the electrical boxes”. I called the office the following morning, hoping to find some competence. Telling the young man who answered about the problem, (errantly thinking that someone would at least want to know about the problem in order to fix it), I asked for a refund of the difference between the price of the 30 AMP and the 50 AMP. I was told “No”. Yes, that’s right. I was told that I couldn’t have a refund of the money paid for services that they did not provide. The reason? Because, we were told, the previous day, the manager said that we couldn’t have a refund. Curious. We never asked for a refund the previous day, and we doubt that the teenager that we told about the problem was the manager of a LaQuinta property. Were they anticipating a request? Were they knowingly selling 50 AMP sites that only provide a maximum of 30 AMPS? I asked the teen in charge for his boss’ name. He said that he didn’t know his boss’ name. “You want me to believe that you don’t know your boss’ name”, I queried. “I’m a new employee”, he responded. This KOA is owned by LaQuinta Hotels, and the KOA is behind the Hotel. I asked for the number of the hotel. He laughed at me, apparently not being bright enough to think that I would walk the 100 yards it would take to make an in-person complaint. I did call the hotel, but was unsuccessful at obtaining the names of campground management or even of LaQuinta Home Office customer service operations, though I was given the name of the Hotel’s General Manager who is not associated with the KOA. The hotel eventually did get a teenager to come out and open the cover to our electrical panel, but he only stood there staring at it. He didn’t approach us to ask about the problem. He didn’t have a tester with him – the tester that is apparently used every day to test connections. He just stood there staring. We left. We will not return. I tried to inform LaQuinta Hotels Home Offices using their on-line form (the only way to reach them) but I was continually booted off their system. There is apparently no way to voice a complaint and the next sucker to be assigned site C-5 will probably have the same problem. I will keep trying though. If I can’t reach them, I will reach New Mexico’s Attorney General. We will associate different feelings to the name “LaQuinta” in the future and will tell anyone who mentions the need for a hotel to avoid LaQuinta. PS: The on-site WIFI signal wasn’t strong enough to reach our coach – 5 rows away from the hotel in this shadeless gravel parking lot. The hotel said that it was experiencing problems and that the problem was being investigated. Was the hotel telling the truth? Given our experience, I must ask: Who knows! I deserve at least 10,000 KOA points for enduring this mistreatment from them. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park itself is nice enough for one night. It has easy access, hook ups, amenities etc. But it is obviously not cared for. There were tall weeds everywhere, they were especially out-of-control around the sites for long-termers. Also, there was a lot of old trash along the fence line and in the culverts. Wouldn't take my dog into their two dog runs because they were full of waste. This park is obviously not a destination location and appears to be a cash cow for these KOA owners. We camped here in a Motorhome.

It is a very clean, modern campground, with nice, clean restrooms. There is a huge laundromat on site. There are gravel camping spots. There is free coffee. The only real problem was that the campgrounds is right on the interstate, and the road noise was really loud. Also, there was no shade from the sun or privacy from being seen by interstate traffic. I wasn't given the camp site requested, even though there was no one at the site when we registered. (But, it may be that someone had reserved that particular site ahead of time - I don't know.) All you have to do is show your KOA receipt to get discounts a the Denny's next door. Overall, we would be willing to camp there again. We camped here in a Tent.

The park is similar to what we have previously described for past visits, BUT the maintenance seems to be much less of a priority. There are a lot of weeds growing in the parking area, with some litter here and there. Overall, it was satisfactory and the staff is friendly and helpful (accommodating our request for a larger site so we could park without disconnecting our travel trailer). The bathrooms and shower areas are clean – and we will continue to stay here as an overnight stop. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

High price, during check in process attendant was not knowledgeable of surrounding area. Their claimed swimming pool is not their property, only to find it is the motels next door. In order to use the pool you have to check in and out with the front lobby of the motel, making it very awkward. Bath rooms were not clean and campsites were a parking lot. Forget this campground, overpriced. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Situated in between Interstate 40 and the railroad tracks, this is not a quiet location. However, the sites are huge, have nice cement slabs with picnic tables & BBQ, and being able to use an indoor pool and spa were nice features (it was snowing when we were there). Great Wi-Fi and cable. Friendly office staff, too. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The last three reviews hit the nail on the head. Gravel, big sites, very big rig friendly, nice picnic tables on concrete pads, surrounded by new hotels on three sides, with a feeling of being in an RV storage lot. The office is in the laundry building on the right as you enter off the street. Internet is industrial strength. Gallup is an interesting town. We are staying here four days to walk the streets and tour the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Gravel, gravel and more gravel. Even the tent sites are gravel! The pull through sites are not all level and of course are gravel. Even the dog runs are gravel!! The park is clean and well laid out. It has an almost sterile feel as it is completely void of grass or shade. But it does have lots of gravel. We won't be staying here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Good KOA for an onvernight stay. Close to the highway, and there is the obvious noise, but it was quiet enough in the RV. Indoor pool at the La Quinta is open to park residents, and is a nice clean facility. The park also provides a discount at the Denny's next door. Nice level sites, and probably the widest sites we have ever seen. Very clean park. We shall stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park was very clean and convenient but extremely close to Highway 40 so there is a lot of traffic noise. You are within walking distance to a restaurant which is nice for those who are just there for a stopover. There are fenced dog walk areas which is nice. I probably wouldn't stay here again only because the traffic noise prevented me from sleeping. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was our third stay (we were here in June and September, 2007), and the park is as described by other reviewers – no trees and covered with crushed rock. This is a typical landscape for the desert southwest, though. There is easy access to the sites, and they are very level. We did notice that the nearby trains didn't seem to be as loud this time, but maybe we're just used to it. The restrooms are very clean, and as mentioned in our other review, there is a common shower entry area, which is very humid (we didn't use the showers here). One change is the new wifi this year, and the reception is very good; we had no problem. The water pressure is about 100 psi, so a reducer is important. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The campground looks like a big gravel parking lot when entering. Upon looking a little closer, there are individual campsites and a few very small trees. Each site has a concrete pad for picnic table and the gravel was level for our motorhome. The amenities are the attraction: indoor pool at next door LaQuinta, good Wi-Fi, Denny's next door (10% discount), and nice, large clean laundromat next door. There is also a fenced pet area. There is a train on the north side and the highway on the south side of the campground. If you're a light sleeper, bring a noisemaker. We would stay here again as it's clean and convenient. Our biggest complaint is that it's expensive. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a smaller but very clean park with the amenities for swimming to use at the LaQuinta next door and a 10% discount on your food bill at the Denny's also next door.

We have stayed at this KOA several times before. It is rather plain, but it meets our needs just fine. Since the last time we were there they have added tables and grills at the sites, and they now have free Wi-Fi. I can’t remember if they had cable TV last time, but they do now. You can still use the indoor pool at the adjacent La Quinta Motel, and you get 10% off at the nearby Denny’s. It also looked like they had added a layer of gravel over the whole lot. (We remembered more red dirt the last time.) This should help keep down the blowing dirt when it is windy. We think this makes a great overnight stop, and we will stay here again.

Nice clean new looking place. Completely gravel w/ no marking on ground indicating the site width. Sites were very large/wide. Picnic table on concrete slab within just a couple of feet of your neighbor's hook-ups, sewer included. Highway a very short stone's throw to one side and double railroad a couple hundred feet to other. Not worth the high price paid for quick in and out while heading west. Too many others for much less to warrant returning here. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Clean, relatively new, typical KOA with no surprises – and as described by other reviewers. Virtually no trees (no shade), covered with crushed rock (“like a parking lot”); typical Southwest landscaping. A good place to stop for a night or two. Nearby freeway was not that noisy, but trains were very noisy and you could actually feel them at times. Not really a problem for us – seemed to lull us to sleep. Shower arrangement not very good – common entry hall for men and women, with private/locked, windowless shower rooms. We didn’t use it, but looked around; it appeared there was one light switch for all shower rooms (perhaps one could be left in the dark, if someone turned the switch off?). Restrooms were very clean. Wifi arrangement with the adjacent La Quinta was great, but only if you took your laptop and could connect to their DSL. Otherwise, their two PCs were very, very slow. We camped 2 nights with no pets. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The only positive things about this campground were the super clean restrooms and a very nice office employee. This is a gravel parking lot with hookups. That would be okay for an overnight stop just to sleep, but that leads me to the biggest negative. The NOISE! Trains run by the campground constantly. They are so close our entire trailer shook. When there is a welcome break between trains, trucks on I-40 roar by. I might have been able to live with that for $10-15 a night, but $39! Next time we stop in Gallup, we'll try the local Walmart. There won't be any hookups, but it's not next to the train tracks either. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Interesting park!!! It’s actually nothing but a gravel parking lot sandwiched between two motels, a Denny’s restaurant, Interstate 40, Route 66 and the ever present railroad tracks. All that said, it is noisy but we found it to be quite nice for a three day stay. The laundry is huge and superb. The staff are nice. The restaurant is very convenient, as is everything in town - just pull out on the highway and turn left! Very handy spot and kept up reasonable well. I will stop there again for sure.

We have stayed at this KOA three times in the past nine months, and we really like it. It is pretty short on landscaping, but this is a desert area after all. I can see that it would have blowing dust if it was windy, but that was not a problem when we were there. There is highway and train noise, but it was not loud enough to keep us awake at night. The first time we stayed in October 2005 the sites were unlevel, and we tried 3 sites before we found one that was level enough to use. The manager was very accommodating and apologized for the sites. He said the sewer had caused all the humps and said they were completely redoing the campground the next week. Sure enough on our return trip two weeks later the entire lot had been graded and was very level. The sites are gravel, long enough not to have to unhook, and wide enough to park your tow vehicle beside your RV if you do. Their individual bathrooms were spotless. You could also use the indoor pool and computer center at the adjacent La Quinta Motel. There was also a 24 hr. laundromat beside the office. This was a good base for seeing sites in western New Mexico and eastern Arizona. Gallup is a fun little town to explore also. Be sure to drive the old Route 66 through town. We definitely recommend this place. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Despite the fact it looks like a parking lot from I-40, the spaces are wide and long enough for our 40 ft. 5th Wheel. The site was wide enough to fit my tow vehicle next to our rig. This is a new park, so their trees will take a few years to grow and provide any shade. We liked the ability to use the heated pool and spa in the hotel adjacent to the park, and the 24 hr. huge laundry facilities, so you never have to wait for a washer or dryer. The only other amenity that would be nice is if they offered reliable Wi-Fi. The office is open 24/7 and they were very nice to us. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Park opened in spring 2005--very clean, new facilities, extra wide pull through sites, friendly staff, 24-hour commercial laundry, business center and pool at adjacent La Quinta Inn are available to KOA guests. Campground is pretty noisy due to proximity to I-40 and railroad. Gravel sites, absolutely no shade until the trees grow up in about 20 years. Good for a night or two if touring in the area.

Excellent park, with super easy access and great utilities. My only complaint was about the air traffic from the nearby small mini airport, but it was a minor nuisance. One night we heard a couple of flights take off in the early early a.m. Very nice staff. Good location near the interstate and town. We'll be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed free due to the Tents to Troops Program but the entry form on this review would not accept zero dollars. Owner is extremely patriotic and super nice. We had a water/electric only site. This park is all gravel and very dusty. Has nice pool and playground as well as life size chess game. Very busy park. Easy on and off highway. There is train noise if you are outside but could not hear it inside our RV. There is an airport very close and was very busy with small planes when we stayed. Very low flying planes that we could hear inside RV. Has great free WiFi. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Price reflects an Escapees discount and 2-way hookup. Mostly long pull-throughs, very level, with side-by-side hookups, wide enough for our 4 slides. Park was very clean and well-maintained.

Nice park and very accessible. It is a great place to spend the night. Most of the sites are long pull throughs that are graveled. We got a 50 amp full hookup site without cable. We had plenty of room to pull out slides on both sides. The rate reflects a retired military discount. The people were very nice and everything worked well. We did not have any issue with the water like some others have. The train tracks were nearby, but it did not bother our sleep. Great places to walk the dogs. We would definitely stop there again.

We checked all of the site reviews for places to stay in or near Gallup and found them old, or very mixed, and generally not helpful. We stopped and looked at all of the sites along I-40 heading west from Albuquerque about 60 miles east of Gallup. this one is clean, and the cable and Wi-Fi worked great. We are staying an extra night just to get a break from the road after a month of travel. This is definitely the best RV option in Gallup and very comparable to good places in other locations.

Good Sam rate. The rating is tough. First impressions are good and the staff is helpful, the CG clean crushed rock and free Wi-Fi. Power stanchions were very high or very low voltage, so much so that our Electrical Management System (EMS) would not connect because the first stanchion we checked was putting out 138 volts. At the second stanchion the EMS disconnected three times in two days because of extremely high voltage. With the EMS we are protected but others may not be so fortunate. Water was another issue. First night tap water was soapy, looked like dish water, and took several minutes to clear. Last morning the fresh water tap put out a solution which looked like weak tea and I use a good filtering system so we utilized bottled water again. This is a busy CG with many overnighters coming and going on a daily basis and many never hook up to shore utilities. Bathhouse in the CG remains closed but laundry room and restrooms in the main building have remained open this winter and very clean. Buildings kind of suggest this may have once been an old KOA. With the problems present with electric and fresh water I think I would avoid returning to this CG. Historic Route 66 presents about 12 miles of history through Gallup, lots of fun.

This was a really nice, rather charming RV park; you could tell the owners care about the maintenance here. The office has a very nice gift shop if you're into the touristy souvenirs or Indian jewelry. They also had a BBQ 'cookout' dinner (Friday evening) that could be ordered in the office. It was a bit overpriced for what it was, but the food was pretty good. Gravel sites were pretty level and well kept. Long enough for our 29' motor-home towing a vintage 'canned ham'.

We stopped here for one night in a motor home. Very clean park and nice folks at the registration desk. Outside of the planes passing over head during the day, we didn't hear any at night. One other reviewer commented on a sewer odor and we also smelled that as well and thought it might be from another coach. We did not use the bathroom or the laundry facilities. We also opted out of the BBQ dinner and went to Jerry's cafe and had excellent New Mexican food! My only complaint I had was the WI-FI, we had a lot of trouble with it functioning well enough to get anything up online. I think it would be of benefit for the park owners to update their WI-FI system. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for one night on the way to Mesa Verde & Durango. Everything was nice and very clean. Bathrooms have been updated-spotless! Owner was great, courteous and responsive. Our site was level and totally free of debris and weeds with partial shade. The BBQ was so-so; beats cooking after a day on the road. I think the nearby airport is only open during the day, so not a big deal. Hiways, trains and RV parks all go together, so the occasional train is never a bother. The bad part was the drifting sewer odor from the municipal treatment plant. I didn't talk to the RV park owner about it but a local at the gas station said it was particularly bad right now. I would stay here again, but only in the cooler months. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park was nice--clean bathrooms, nice pool, and putt-putt golf. The grounds were neat and clean and the sights were fine. It was a bit difficult to get level, but not horrible. The sites are face to face, which is fine when you have some room. But even as crowded as this is, it was better than having our neighbor's sewer right by the picnic table. The owner gave us information when we were having some problems with our rig and needed repairs, but was a little short on compassion. Oh well, it was fine for a stop over.

My nightly rate reflects the military discount. All active duty stay free! This park is a newer park and very very clean. The sites are level and very basic. They have some shade trees. All sites are parked so that you never had to look at your neighbors' sewer lines, you park back to back. The pool was open until 10 PM, which was a nice added convenience after being on the road all day. To unwind until 10 was very nice. Every day they have BBQ where you can purchase food and enjoy and ice cream social. The park also has a separate dog run where you can let your dogs off leash for awhile to run and sniff. The park unfortunately is not a very nice park of town, but they offer so much to you within the park you shouldn't have to go into town for anything.

Sites are all gravel and not marked particularly well but this isn't a problem. The CG is at the end of the runway for the local airport and the planes are noisy but the good news is this is a really small airport so small jets and low volume.

Adequate place for an overnight. Gallup is not a destination. Easy access from I-40 on west end of town. Since it was cold and the windows were closed the trains didn't bother us. But did hear them in the night. Yes, it is at the end of the runway. Thought we needed to duck a couple of times. Didn't smell the problem mentioned by others. Clean big gravel parking lot with lots of seasonal residents. No junk allowed so it looked good. Trash cans close to sites. Wi-Fi adequate. Water and electric good. Dog walk was off in one corner of the park. Easy in and out for big rigs. Would camp here again. This isn't campground related... Just down the road there is an old Route 66 restaurant.

As others have noted, this is a nice park with good facilities. Some of the amenities (pool and cafe) were closed for the season. All sites are pull-through with side-by-side hookups, but not all sites are FHU with 50 Amp and/or cable. If you want FHU, cable (60 channels), or 50 Amp be sure to ask for that kind of site. Many sites are just W&E, 30 Amp, and/or without cable. Most sites appear to be satellite friendly. We had a lot of trouble connecting to the Wi-Fi in the evening. It was probably due to heavy traffic on the system as the park was nearly full. We were able to connect in the morning. The park appears to have quite a few extended stay/long term customers, so site availability of the type you want may not always be available if you don't call in advance. We camped here in a Motorhome.

USA is an older park, but clean and well maintained. Though we thought we'd reserved a full service site, ours had no sewer. Small rigs are situated near the front, have more room and probably better Wi-Fi; our big rig was to the back, in a tight space but with wide turn room. Wi-Fi poor. The park is well situated for an overnight stay. We think odor complaints may be from a nearby water treatment plant, not the park. Some permanent sites that need work, airplane, train and road noise. Courteous staff. Good bet for short stay or rest day. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Clean, well-managed, well-maintained park. Friendly staff. Easy-in, easy-out pull throughs for big rigs. Bathrooms are among the cleanest we have found anywhere. Rigs are parked in alternating directions so they share utility hookups between them. This results in rigs being very close together on hookup side, but with a lot of space on the side of the entry door. This is a central location for many sights (all well worth seeing) within a 60-90 minute drive, so do your homework and plan to stay more than one or two days (El Morro, Ice Cave, Canyon De Chelley, Hubbell Trading Post, El Mal Pais, Petrified Forest, Painted Desert, uranium mining museum at Grants, Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary; Navajo, Hopi, and Zuni reservations, and more). Gallup has many shops to buy authentic Indian jewelry, stone fetishes, kachinas, and other crafts, a major source of income for local Native Americans. On and near reservations, you buy directly from the artisans (great prices) who set up booths along the road and at tourist stops. We strongly recommend this park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Gravel sites (and lots of them) which are close to each other with paved streets, the area for parking is no beauty but is well maintained. It has a very nice store and gift shop and very friendly, helpful staff. The pool was closed but there is a nice picnic area and they serve dinners at an affordable price. There was highway noise from the interstate and noise from the railroad but we were parked far enough toward the back of the park that it was not too bothersome. However, they had jets planes getting ready for an air show constantly flying over head and the noise was so loud that you had to cover your ears. This were flying over during the afternoon and evening until about 9 PM. We did not hear much other airplane traffic. It was OK for an overnight stop while traveling. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Constant traffic noise from I-40 and from a major railroad line across the street with trains blowing horn every 15 minutes or so. Oh, and I can't forget the buzzing of private planes overhead that sounded like they were landing on our roof. Sites are so close we had to pull in twice so we could get our slide out. Good thing it was just an overnight stay for us. We won't make that mistake again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice multi colored gravel roadways with little else in the way of landscaping in this barren part of the US. Nevertheless, the spots assigned to overnighters are easy in and easy out. Close to I-40 though the interstate noise was not objectionable with the A/Cs on. Nothing in the way of a real standout but everything worked as it was intended. If we are back in Gallup we would probably look for something a little nicer. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice park, staff was friendly even at 8:45 when we checked in (they close up the office at 9 PM). Unfortunately we had a bad experience with odor at our site. I can't say if it was just someone that had their dumping hose installed without a cap on the end or there was a sewer problem in general, but it was very strong the whole night long. The office was closed before we noticed, so we couldn't switch sites. The small airport nearby is used only by private prop planes, and we only heard two during our stay, although they do fly low at the park (below 500 ft). Except for the smell, I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

USA RV Park in Gallup, NM is the type of RV park that causes many people to choose Wal-Mart as an overnight stopping place. Nightly fee was $29.45 cash (they said the credit card machine was broken) and since I did not need 50 amp or cable for overnight, was parked in a site next to a large tree that blocked the satellite. No cable TV hook-up available, and though they advertise free Wi-Fi, both Wi-Fi signals were "Limited or No Connectivity." The park does offer many amenities to include swimming, restaurant, and nightly entertainment, but for a one-night stop-over it is just an expensive gravel parking lot with water and electricity. Save your money and park at Wal-Mart. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campground is all gravel, a little tight in spots. Very friendly check in, nice cookout with a CW singer and an excellent pool. No road noise and a very distant train noise, but no issue.

There is also a bonus of various dinner options on premises (BBQ, fried catfish, burgers, etc.) which was very nice after a long day of traveling. You could eat in their picnic area next to the very clean pool or take it back to your rig. Presently, there is a very good singer performing live at the park in the evenings! A nice treat.

Great park! The park has very level, gravel sites with full or partial hook-ups. Pull-through sites are angled for easy entry and exit and are face-to face, so you don’t open your door to your neighbor’s sewer, but they are long enough that you each have your own yard area, including well-maintained picnic tables. Plenty of room for slides and awnings (if the wind ever stops blowing). Nicest gift shop I’ve ever seen at an RV park – in a town known for its Native American gift shops. There is a small, but clean and secure dog run. The park has two laundry rooms. The one at the back is a bit tight for comfort and has no place to fold clothes other than on top of the washers, but the one at the front is great. The only reason to give this park a 9 rather than a 10 is its proximity to the Gallup airport. Over three days, we only heard five or six flights take off, and only one of those was at night, but they were pretty loud. It will not prevent us from staying there again, however. Rate shown is Escapees discount for W/E only, plus local tax. Although we are not active duty military, we chose this park specifically because of their policy that active duty military personnel stay free. I wish more parks would do this for our service men and women and their families. Two monthly workers checked in right before me, looking a little scruffy and driving older rigs, but being very polite. The owner made no bones about his expectations of guests and their pets. The two young men might have been surprised to know that he gave us, a retired couple in a spiffy 40’ motorhome, exactly the same speech. We appreciate parks with clear rules and high expectations but who don’t discriminate against those with older rigs. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Stayed one night on our way west. Wish we had the time to stay longer. This park is first rate. Hookups are shared between 2 sites on a common post but there was plenty of room between sites that it wasn't a problem. The roads are paved while all sites are small gravel and level. Good water pressure. 60 channels of cable TV. Wi-Fi worked great. One pleasant surprise, the water was soft water. Not sure if the RV park did that or city water came that way naturally but sure felt good. For dog owners there is an enclosed dog run with an actual fire hydrant and dog mess pick-up tools. The enclosure was at least 30'x 30'. Our dogs had a great time running and it was large enough we could even play catch with them. Did not use the showers but they were spotless when I checked them. The restrooms were equally spotless. Check-in was effortless. When we checked out in the morning the lady at the desk asked what our travel plans were (Petrified Forest NP). When we told her she suggested that we go a little out of our way and visit the Hubbell Trading Post. Glad we took her advise, it was an outstanding day of sightseeing. The park sits at the end of the Gallup airport runway but being an Air Force pilot I didn't hear a single plane all night. Also did not hear any of the trains passing by on the opposite side of the park entrance. We loved this park and highly recommend it if you are passing through Gallup.

Fellow travelers, you could camp here just for fun: the BBQ, the evening singer, the pool.

Or, for the terrifically pleasant host and his family. They take Passport America for a few months but the other discount programs are year round.

I rated this park lower than a 10 only because of the airplanes which will wake you several times each night and the side by side hook-ups. The first night we had no one assigned next to us but the second night we did, and with slide outs there is little room between the RVs. I fail to understand why when parks are not full, sites are assigned next to each other, especially when they are side by side hook-ups.

3 words for you, Planes, Trains and Automobiles. In that order, who knew that planes take off at 3AM and right outside your window. Trains as long as New Mexico is wide on Route 66 all night long. But the owners and the new sights (90-100's) are very wide, lots of room in between sites, some of the lower site #'s are very close, but it is because it's a former KOA. It is a good overnight night site, clean restrooms and showers. Not a lot to do in Gallup. We would stay here again if only for 1 night. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a great, clean, well-kept RV park with fun amenities like nightly BBQ's and music, a clean pool, a playground, nice showers (albeit not roomy enough to accommodate wheelchair bound or families with small children) and laundry... However, if you want to actually sleep, this may not be the place for you. We were buzzed by VERY close aircraft 4-5 times lasting until 3:00 in the morning! They were so loud that they shook our RV! In addition, the train goes by nearby and blowing it's horn 4-5 times a night. Great place, but during our trip, this place was far too loud for us to sleep. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here in October 2009, and the repeat visit was well worth it. The owners take excellent care of the facilities and it shows: clean, everything works, great layout. In the summer they offerred an evening meal plus ice cream for about $7/plate and free cowboy music. We did not eat but did enjoy the music until the rain chased us back to the RV.

We stayed here going to and coming from Colorado, and I have to say they have a very nice park here. The staff is very friendly, with a nice pool, play area for the kids and a country singer who plays until 8:30 pm. They have a BBQ dinner if you wish and a ice cream social each evening. I don't if there is much to do around Gallup, but for an overnight stop, this works great. All pull through sites, so you can stay hitched. It is quiet and very clean. We will stop here again.

Other than a lack of shade trees, this park was wonderful. Over the weekend, we did have a bit of small aircraft noise as the planes landed but other than that, it was great. The staff is very friendly, the nightly BBQ and entertainment was fun and the park is centrally located for day-trips to El Morro National Monument (highly recommended), Red Rock State Park, Zuni Nation, Window Rock, Canyon de Chelly and the Hubbell Trading Post. The campground's WiFi worked great. Gallup's trading posts are fantastic to see and the Gallup Indian Flea Market (weekends only) are not to be missed. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great Park. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Everything was immaculate and we heard no annoying noises from I-40 or the local airport. We would rate this a 10 if there had been some shade and just another couple of feet of space between pull-thrus; however we were in a 43 foot motorhome and towing. Enjoyed the City of Gallup and the nightly Indian singers and dancers that performed in a beautiful courtyard located at the Courthouse. Really loved the local trading companies, especially Richardson Trading Company in downtown Gallup. We would definitely recommend this park and this city. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Only thing keeping this park from being a 10 is lack of shade. Park, restrooms, & laundry room are very clean, management friendly and committed to service. Owner actually phoned us around 10:30 p.m. to see what time we were arriving (very windy that day) as he would stay up so that we would not have to 'find a spot' on our own.

This was not the best park we have stayed in. The office staff was friendly and they had a nice playground for the kids. However, the lots were extremely close together, so we could actually hear the furnace of the RV that was parked next to us. Our lot was not level, either. There was some airport noise, but it didn't seem to bother us throughout the night. The biggest problem we had was extremely high winds. That was certainly not the fault of the park, but the lady who worked in the office said that was pretty typical for Gallup. We would recommend avoiding staying in Gallup altogether if you can.

This is an old KOA park from years ago that pasted owners and ones that own it now have reworked into a nice park. The roads are asphalt and all sites are level with small gravel. You have pull-through and back-in sites to pick from. Most sites are pull-through. You can pick what you wish to use here. If you need 50 amp, sewer or cable TV you can get it. If you do not wish to pay for it no problem. The pull-through sites are side by side hookups. You will have about eight feet from one unit to the next. Checked the bathhouses, playground equipment and common zones and find everything in good order. The Wi-Fi is free but not working well at all. We were in 200 feet of one antenna and signal level was poor. Two laptops in use, one would work at times off and on and the other would not pick up the signal at all (worked OK at last park). Verizon cell and air card worked well. Staff was nice at check in. Office is open to 10:00 pm for check in. Wal-Mart was about three miles to restock your supplies. If you love trains this is the place to be. One will pass by about every 15 to 20 minutes day and night. You have two tracks but very little noise from engines, no horns I-40 is 1/2 miles over and train tracks are around 1/4 mile from park. Inside RV with it closed up was no problem. You have a small air port a short ways east of here and may pick up noise from that as well but closed down at 9:00 pm. Trip into town and found the town to be more or less dead. Park is on west side of town and we think this is a nice place to stay. At time we were in park it was around 60% full. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Desert Shadows is typical of a retirement community with a few sites for short term guests. There’s an air of resentment of outsiders encroaching on their space.

This is our third time at this campground and it remains an excellent facility. We only needed to stay for one night, but the check-in was fast, the site level with everything in order, the staff friendly, and the price reasonable. I, for one, appreciate not having to pay for things I don't need such as 50 amp service and cable TV. The airplane traffic was steady all night long. Since the campground is only about 2000 feet under the extended final approach for Runway 06, the planes are not very high when they come overhead. We've never noticed before the amount of airplane traffic we heard on this visit. There may have been some special event going on. Also, since Gallup lost its scheduled airline service a couple of years ago, perhaps the frequency of chartered flights have increased. In any case, they planes were only a minor nuisance, and won't keep us from enjoying this campground in the future. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here twice this month--once on our way to our destination and this last time on our return home. I have to rate this as one of the better parks we've stayed in. The reason I only rate is an 8 is the fact that it is close to train tracks and the trains pass by day and night several times an hour. The management is very friendly and I give extra credit to the fact the they have a policy that active duty military personnel stay free! They also give retired military a discount. Our site was gravel and level. The Wi-Fi was not particularly fast, but it worked. On our first stay there a week ago, I was told at check-in that they were upgrading their Wi-Fi and that it might be sporadic. It was, but on our latest stay they had it fixed and it worked fine. If you are looking for a park in Gallup, NM I highly recommend this one. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here three days and the sites were very large with ample room to park our jeep and our truck. No train or freeway noise but an occasional small plan landing at a nearby airport. Not enough for concern. Wi-fi (free) was worth its cost: nothing! Had a very difficult time staying connected and got dial-up speeds at times. Owner said he was going to have a T1 line installed the next week and given his integrity I believe him. Park is immaculately maintained and this was our second visit to the park on our snowbird journey home from Arizona to Minnesota. Would definitely stay here again even though it is not the thriftiest park we've stayed in. The price included an AARP discount but an add-on for sewer (our choice) and cable TV made the price what it was. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The staff moves slower than a snail. They are not at all friendly or helpful. They just take your money. Stay at the Wal-Mart for better service.

The next morning I complained and requested a refund for that day as I would move. Told no! The Wi-Fi is free so if it does not work, to bad.

This was our second stay here as we passed through Gallup, and it is a great place! The owner is very friendly and super helpful! We had extra days, and he gave touring advice that was good. Do go to El Morro National Monument if you can. The RV sites are gravel, but are very level and well tended. All the services for our RV stay, worked well and were easy hookups. The dog walk area is good, and is tended daily. In the summer season they have a pool and many other activities for families, and for other travelers as well. For large dogs, you can also take them for runs out behind the park, as it is open sagebrush. You are near to exit 16 off I-40, but you really aren't bothered by freeway (or train) noise. There is an occasional small plane that lands, but the noise is not bothersome. We look forward to staying here again when we are in Gallup! We camped here in a Motorhome.

The USA RV Park was one of the easiest to get to from I-40. The spaces were wide, long and level. We had space 100 that was next to the laundry that was very good. The owner was very helpful especially about local information. He provided great directions to the Hubbell Trading Post and to/from Canyon de Chelly--a trip we made with an overnight stop in Chinle in a motel. There are so many attractions around Gallup and we enjoyed El Morro, the Wolf Sanctuary, and the trip to Canyon de Chelly. A special treat was dinner at the El Rancho Motel and Restaurant that was opened in 1937. All the movie stars stayed there in the 50's-60's while filming around Gallup.

Price reflects a Triple A discount for a full hookup, pull-through site that was long enough to accommodate our rig and tow car without unhooking for the night. The entire park, office and gift shop areas were neat and clean as a whistle: very inviting and refreshing. We took advantage of, and enjoyed the on-site BBQ dinner. There is an active train line across the street, however the local airport take-off pattern was more of a sleep nuisance than the trains.

The negative is that there is no shade and very little space between sites. Cramped is an appropriate term. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stopped here for the night on our way to Colorado, but decided to stay a 2nd night so that we could check-out the area where they have the Balloon Festival in December. Father and son were working the evening we checked in and were very helpful. They offer a breakfast and dinner during the summer which we found reasonably priced and quite good. The gift shop is well stocked with a variety of items. A new waterfall feature is being built and looks like it will be awesome. We are thinking of staying here in December for the Balloon Festival if there isn't snow in the passes then. We camped here in a Motorhome.

They have good size pull-thru's and can choose 30 or 50 amp sites. New owners are making improvements and quite accommodating. Price reflects SKP and 50 amp. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

For a nominal fee, a cookout was available and breakfast is also available for a very reasonable rate. The streets are paved and lots are graveled. Very well kept campground.

This campground is only a seven. What was a ten was the fact that they had breakfast and dinner and the laundry area was respectively clean and only $1.00 for washing machines $ .50 for dryers. Cable, satellite, and Verizon air card all worked well. What made the campground a 7 were the sites - they were extremely close, not very leveled, noise from planes at all late hours of the night and highway noise. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We've stayed at this campground 3 or 4 times. This is a great overnight park, the sites are mostly level but close together. There's enough room to open slides but it still has an almost a 'crowded' feeling. It is a bit pricey for what you get. It is quiet, with minimal road noise. They offer outdoor meals as you check in, but we've never participated. The staff is not very knowledgeable about RV repair shops. We needed help with a tire problem and were recommended to a facility for cars. The parking lot was small and the shop was obviously not equipped to handle RV repairs of any kind.

The staff is excellent, helpful and friendly (under new ownership). The laundry rooms (two of them) and both bathrooms are spotless. In the summer months they offer breakfast and BBQ dinner at very reasonable prices, along with free, live entertainment (country music during the dinner hours). The large swimming pool is very clean and has a huge American flag painted on the bottom. They have a large gift shop and store that is very nice and offers a variety of merchandise nicely displayed. They have a fenced-in area for dogs to run and play freely and a nice playground for the kids near the fenced-in pool(kids can't open safety gate). The only things lacking are BBQ grills at each site and more trees for shade. We did not hear any traffic or train noises, as the campground sets back away from both and we camped on the back row. Sites are gravel and pretty level. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We haven't seen any of the problems mentioned by the previous poster, but we're just here for the night. We have a large site, clear access for our satellite dishes and the owners/managers seem friendly and helpful. And it's convenient to the Interstate as well as restaurants and shopping. I wouldn't necessarily want to stay here for a long period of time, but if I had to, I don't think it would be a problem.

Read the reviews and decided to stay here. The park has changed. There are a lot of long term sites that are very junky. The occupants are scary. We had one drive fast thru our site. We were surprised they made it without hitting us or our truck. They also like to run their motorcycles up and down the streets making a lot of noise. The Wi-Fi was off. The owner said they couldn't fix then, maybe later. We lost the signal many times for several hours, always in the morning.. Encouraging people to leave? Won't stay again.

The park owner checked us in, and he was very friendly. The sites are gravel and level, they alternate directiions so you face one way and the next rv faces the opposite direction. No big deal but some may not like it. The park is near a railroad but only minimal noise from it. Restrooms and showers are immaculate. A very nice store with lots of NM and Rt. 66 stuff inside. All active service personel are given a free campsite, this is a thank you to our service men and women by the USA RV Park owners.

This was a busy park and the gentleman in charge was friendly and helpful. Spaces were adequate but like others in this region, sand and gravels so gets muddy when wet. No shade to speak of. 50 amp service was available, but not as part of a full hook-up, so we opted for a full hook-up with 30 AMP service. Nice gift shop.

This was our first visit to the park since 2003. We were checked in by the owner who was very helpful & friendly. One has a choice of what services they want and are charged for each-we chose a 50 amp site with water. The park appears clean overall, but our site could have been policed prior to renting to us. The roads are blacktop and the sites are pea gravel which holds down dust. The sites are wide enough & long enough for any size unit with any number of slides. We found the electricity & water to be modern & well placed. Few trees which makes park satellite friendly although they offer cable. We will revisit park as we felt it gave us good value for the price. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We had a very bad experience at this park. We had reserved a site with full hook-ups at least 2 months prior to arriving. When we got there, the place was packed with people from the Hot Air Balloon Festival in Albuquerque. They did honor our reservation, but put us in a very small site with no cable, no sewer, and too far away to pick up the Wi-Fi. They told us in the office that our antenna would work , but we couldn't pick up anything. I could understand this, if we came in without a reservation, but that was not the case. We will not stay at this park again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Spotless restrooms and laundry. All gravel and some drought tolerant trees but the city of Gallup wisely wants only hardscaping to conserve their limited water supply but this park done a very good job of making it attractive and very pleasant. Some of the most convenient hookups we've had, with 2 units sharing one set of utilities so easy for two units traveling together to open awnings into each other. This was just an overnight stay, but we will return and use this as our base to explore the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We have stayed here for the past 3 weeks and will be here for another month. The new owner and his family are very nice and helpful. They truly care about having a nice park. I particularly like the back to back sites. The way they are set up, your "front yard" is facing your neighbor's "front yard" so if you are sitting outside you don't have to look at a sewer line. I have seen pet waste in several areas which is hard to understand because there is a wonderful area next to the park where pets can go and even run and play. This is a very nice park and will definitely stay here again. I don't know what the nightly rate is but our monthly rate is $420. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I was in this park again earlier this month. I've stayed here a couple of times before and enjoyed it. The bad rap was that the owner was hard to get along with where animals were concerned. He has sold the park to one of the folks that worked for him. I spoke to the new owner about the pet rules, and he told me they had already been changed for the better. Seeing as how the park has large roomy pull through sites, is very accessible to IH-40, and reasonably priced it is a very good place to stay if you are in the Gallup area.

New owners are much more tolerant of doggie do! We changed sites because of the dog crap right where we would have our awning. Noticed that it was not an isolated incident although it was not all over the park, under the previous owners you never ever had to change your shoes!

This park is located behind a large hotel, with train tracks about 2-3 blocks away and at the end of the small town airport. We were reminded of this by a plane that came right over the park at 7AM every morning and into the later evening hours, not to mention the numerous numbers of trains daily. But we had a good experience here and it is about the best this stretch of road has to offer. Would stay here again. Good Sams and Escapees' discounts. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Restaurants are nearby and sightseeing opportunities are numerous. Wonderful place for studying ancient American Indian cultures. I would return to this campground at any time.

As the previous reviewer stated, this park was purchased by a new owner about a month ago (September 2007). We travel with a dog and were a bit concerned based on some of the earlier reviews, but decided to take a chance. Turned out to be perfectly find. In fact, the new owner and his son, who were working the front desk, were excellent as far as customer service and friendliness. They do ask that you not walk your dog around the campground itself, but to walk them directly to the nice, fenced in dog area, or out along the dirt road that adjoins the campground property. We respected the campground rules, and had absolutely no hassles about our dog. There were several other campers with dogs there, and as far as we could tell, no one encountered any problems. The campground itself is very well maintained. Nice, reasonably sized, very level gravel sites. They did say our site was an 80 foot pull through, but our 40 foot motorhome with toad (total length of 60 feet), just fit in the site with bumpers on the edge of the road front and back. Site width was good. No issues with slides or awnings being too close to the neighbor. Very convenient location and easy to get to from I-40. Only reason I'm not rating this higher is due to the abundant noise from the huge freight trains that travel all night long nearby, and the low flying aircraft that sound like they are landing on your roof. While the planes didn't fly by on a regular basis, a few did wake us out of a sound sleep pretty early in the morning. Otherwise, a very nice campground. We'd stay here again if passing through for the night, but we would bring our ear plugs just in case! We camped here in a Motorhome.

I really could not believe the attitude of this park's owner. First we arrived and someone told my wife, as we were checking in: "Make sure you don't let your dog out here." (while checking in). Okay, then she is on the walkie talkie stating; "They are coming into site, with pet." We arrive at our site and a man is standing there just watching. Didn't think much of this, just thought he admired our MH. Wife gets out hooks up our small dog and starts for the dog pen, which is way in the back. All of a sudden this man comes alive shouting and telling her, "That dog better not go before you get to the pen! Don't use my park as a toilet!" Of course she is in tears and my dog does pee. He doesn't stop yelling. She doesn't say a word just picks up our dog and gets in the MH. Would never stay here again. Will by-pass Gallup altogether. Even if it is his park, have some Christian courtesy. It's a shame since the park does not look too bad. No one should ever be talked to in this manner. Dogs behave better than this man.

While the previous reviews seem to be split along the pet/no-pet divide, We found it to be clean, level, and very usable. The owner is in his late 70s and quite mobile and checks his employees work to make sure of quality. The WiFi was weak toward the rear rows but with a booster antenna I got on easily and it was good WiFi. They also offered an entire room to bring in your laptop or use their desktops for high speed connections. We stayed here 2 days to "clean" up our coach after a couple of months out and had absolutely no problems with management or employees, in fact, found them to be very friendly and helpful.

They allow pets but all but threaten to shoot you and your dog if they don't make it to the designated pet areas in time. The pet contract, in my opinion, is way over the top. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here twice in May 07 on a trip to Utah...no problems and as I have a son that is a career officer in the military I appreciated the "rah rah" USA theme!!! We would certainly stay here again as the staff and owner were most helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park looks nice and employees were courteous, but we must add our voice to the chorus of pet owners who say they will NEVER stay here again, and warn all dog owners to go elsewhere! On our second day, my wife (why is the recipient always female or elderly?) was verbally abused by the owner when she let our arthritic 20-year-old little terrier cross an unoccupied space on the way back from the distant dog area. It started with yelling "Hey You, what do you think you're doing?" and went downhill from there calling her a "slob" and so on! In over two years of full-timing, we have never had problems with pet management and are very conscientious about cleanup and such. For the first time ever, we were immediately evicted. It looks like we're in good company. Of course there was no refund. By the way, when I checked politely with the front desk to see if there was anyone in authority who could do this, the employee started to break into tears. I felt for her. In our opinion, this individual should deal with his serious issues with animals as evidenced by his attack and the over-the-top Dog Rules and "Canineology and Mannerology" manifesto. Admittedly, we did not see that on the reverse side of the rules or we would have left immediately before registering. We were a bit concerned about the Rules of Combat "Kill 'em all and let God sort 'em out," style poster in the office and the anti-Islamic sign in the front driveway, but free speech still applies as I hope it does here! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is the desert and most places have at least some landscaping--this place is pea size gravel and blacktop. And pets owners have a long list of rules that you must sign to bring your pet into the park. The clerk was nice enough, and the flags and USA signs were a bit much. The spaces are very close--no breathing space at all. The price was one of the highest we paid & we were given a discount. The wifi did not work at all. The 'dog area' was so smelly our very small 2 dogs wouldn't even go in--so we waited until after dark and took them on a long walk along the blacktop and some dirt beyond tent area. And yes they used that area to relieve themselves and we cleaned up after them. One person drove their dog to the dog area, let the large dog run free to do its business then called it back to the vehicle then drove off. We agree that the owners should not allow pets if they continue (which we're sure they will) their attitude. We were also turned off by all the "friendly" signs everywhere. We will not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I've looked at the debate on this park and I found it to be just fine. People were courteous and the park was clean, albeit snow covered. The wi-fi didn't work from a very close to the office site but we were able to use computer in office. The trains going by all night could be a problem if you are a light sleeper, they are pretty loud and constant. Course if it's 2 below and your heater runs all night like ours did, it helps drown out the noise. We also had no pets. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Many have commented on the attitude expressed toward dogs by the owners and I certainly found no reason to defend them. I also found them uncomfortable. The owners patriotism is worn openly, and while probably overdone, I didn't feel uncomfortable with it. The thing that forces me to rate the park down was the noise, more so than the situation with the dogs, between the trains and the departing planes, I found my sleep interrupted more than I find acceptable. I don't know if weather had anything to do with planes direction, but they came right over the campground four times the night I was there. The bottom line is that anyone with a dog should avoid this park. The park is neat, clean and well kept. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I would have given this park an 8 or 9 but downgraded it because of the owner's attitude towards pets. He would be better off not allowing pets but I guess he would be out a lot of revenue because many people travel with pets. It was a little pricey for its location and for Gallup, NM. As soon as you drove into the park, you can tell the owner was a super-right-winged military person from all of the displays on the signs. He was so proud to be an American and made no bones that he was a vet and his park was 100% American owned. The first sign you saw was that he supported the Iraq war-fine but why did I need to know this information? These kinds of people make me nervous because you know at any moment they may go beserk. Makes you wonder why he had the need to put his rah-rah America views in your face and just show neutrality. It was a total turnoff. The person who checked me in was friendly (not the owner) and said because of the Iraq war, that was why we could walk around free in this country. Good thing he bought the owner's trip. Then he repeated at least 4 times that the dogs were not to be walked around the park and could only walk on the blacktop to the dog walk or to the area outside of the park boundaries. I received a separate sheet of 12 dog rules that had very threatening consequences if I did not follow them. It claimed that pet owners let their dogs "use AMERICA as their toilet". or some crazy thing like that. There were several signs posted all over the park about not letting pets go just about every place in the park. I am no dummy and am a very conscientious pet owner and don't need a sign at every turn to tell me not to let my pet go in a particular area. I was not approached because I followed the pet rules to the letter but I know I would have been admonished if my dog would tinkle a drop on the gravel or on a tree. I felt like I was being watched constantly and did not feel relaxed while staying here. It is too bad because the park was really nice and very well maintained. I will NEVER stay here again and will NEVER recommend this park to anyone. Because of the owner's attitude, he is hanging himself. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was our second stop at this campground, both pleasant experiences. The mother-daughter team greated me when I entered the office. The mother recalled an event that took place more than a year back, which was something to laugh at. The next morning I talked with the owner who offered advice for traveling since 3-4 inches of snow fell durning the night. My opinion this is one of the best run parks I've been in, very clean. The owner, a veteran, offest a free night to active duty military. Where else in the US does this happen? Reading reviews it seems those with dogs are the campers who give a negative review. I certainly will stay here again when I travel I-40. I would have rated this facility a 9 had I been able to connect to WiFi the evening I checked in. For some reason, I could not, though next morning signal came in strong. A couple dozen channels on cable TV. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Please, if you value your sanity and appreciate being a RV'er, easy going. Do not by any means stay at this park. The owner expects you to carry your dog to the dog area which is way in the back. He is mean, rude, and should not be conversing with the public. He will evict anyone for any reason and not return their money. Being a Full-Time RV'er you want to enjoy and he ruins it for everyone. He yells if you don't carry your dog. This park is very overpriced for having to put up with his abuse. There should be a law against people like this. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park is very clean and we were greeted by friendly employs. The dog rules are absolutely ridiculous. The dogs are not allowed to relieve them selfs except in the dog area. The park is also very noisy, caused by trains and an air port. We are staying in the park as I write this. You get the idea that you are under surveillance, because when you go out after dark to go to the dog walk, a watchman drives back to where you are. Will never stay here again.

Stay here if you are active military - free. I paid for cable TV [$2] to get an 'upfront' site so I could use Wi-Fi. But I was never able to get connected to WiFi so I put up my HughesNet antenna. The park is overpriced. Not much to say for the park except that it had good 50amp [$2] and a long pull through.

We were a bit tense about staying here because of so many reviews in which people had been evicted because of trouble with dogs (our Chihuahua can be noisy). We were especially careful with him and carried him to the walk areas to ensure no "accidents". The park was very clean, but there is some noise from the airport and the very busy railroad tracks. The owner was quite friendly and our dog behaved; we did not witness any unusual inspections or observations regarding pets. Overall, however, we thought the campground was overpriced. We would have felt much better had we been paying only $18 - $22 per night rather than $28. Note that this did include extra charges for 50-amp and cable. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have camped here for many years but never again! If you have pets you are not welcome any more. We checked in and were told that the owner was on a rampage about pets. Since we had stayed there in the past and he had played with our dogs I checked in anyway. Big mistake, as we headed for the dog walk he came driving up screaming that those *&%#@ dogs better not pee on the way to the dog walk. Then he took off. As luck would have it the little one peed on the gravel beside the road. He slammed the car in reverse and tore back to us screaming that we were evicted along with a lot of expletives. I told him he knew us etc. He just kept screaming and then left at a high rate of speed. The motorhome owner next door was outside and had his mouth open. He said he could not believe what happened, since he had two dogs he decided to ask for his money back and leave also. On the way to the office to try and talk to him, we ran into a couple we had camped with at the previous campground, they were flabbergasted at what had happened, especially since I had recommended the park to them. When we got to the office he had left the campground completely. The girls at the desk said he always does things like this and then lets them take the heat. Her daughter even got on her bike and went to look for him, no luck. This park claims to cater to vets, no way. I am retired military and my wife served 10 years in her own right, I am greater than %100 service connected disabled. This is not a friendly place! We did not stay here.

Was a bit apprehensive given some of the violently negative posts about this place, but I'll tell you...I really appreciate the attention to security. Plus the place is AMAZINGLY clean, well-kept, and manicured. The gentleman at the desk was very courteous, if a bit unpersonal...but very professional. We checked in at 11pm at night...he met us right as we pulled up to the office...he had been viewing our progress up the driveway on closed circuit security cameras...a nice touch! When first approaching the property, you pull in the drive and proceed to the office, but the roads past the office are blocked with flag ropes after-hours. This gives the appearance that the place is closed, but what it also does is keep the riffraff out...another nice touch. This is only our second visit to an RV park, as we're new owners. I thought this was a bit pricey (we did get a Good Sam discount), but again, very worth the price when you consider how clean it is, how nice the gift shop is, and the attention to security. We'll definitely be back on our way back through. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The owner here is a nightmare. He lets you have pets, but don't even think about it. He had me evicted at 7:00 a.m. when I took my dog out to go to the dog run, which was 1/4 mile from where we were given a site. My dog didn't make it and peed on the gravel at the corner. The owner came rushing up on his bicycle and yelled "Is that your dog"? to which I said yes, he said "you let your dog use my RV park as a toilet, you're evicted!!" He proceeded to keep on yelling at me, so I walked off. He then followed me as I went to my party's motorhome to let them know we had to leave RIGHT NOW!! After I left their motorhome, he followed me back to mine, yelling at me how awful I was and then that I was not allowed to speak! I called him a "Hitler", told him to go to "h" and went inside. He called the Gallup, NM police to escort us off grounds. He is a whacko, he never even saw the other dog owners let their dogs out to pee on their gravel in front of their sites, he was too busy harrassing me. I do NOT recommend this park unless you like being harrassed for such things. BEWARE OF THE MANIAC. We camped here in a Motorhome.

If only you had negative ratings. I say we camped here in Sep. 2005 but that is actually the day we had reservations. We had my wife's 80 year old father and 78 year old mother with us. We explained that we had a dog and were told that this would be no problem. So we rolled in around 7 pm tired and ready to relax. I stopped to motorhome at the office and got out with my wife to go register. My wifes father got out to take to dog for a walk and was heading out of the park to the street. All at once here comes a maniac yelling at the top of his lungs at my father-in-law and calling him every expletive he could think of. Over and over again this vile man spewed these derogatory names at him. I ran to his aid and was then the brunt of his anger. I have never seen anything like it. This is not a man but an animal of the worst kind. We got back in the moterhome and left, never to come back. I have since heard from a number of people who have had similar experiences, either because of pets or just because this animal did not like the way they looked.

This is a bad memory on a very long cross country trip. It's on the bottom of my list. It started as the desk clerk bragged about how he had evicted a couple [at check-in] because they let the dog out of their motor home. Then I was asked to sign a form that threatened me with eviction and or prosecution [local ordinance]. If my dog urinated on the road, as we walked to the dog run, I may be prosecuted and he would evict me. The rest of the check-in time I was subjected to rants about how good their little restaurant is and I should not bother to go into town. It was $27. for a full hook-up site, but he forgot to mention the cable did not work on my site. The modem is extra $. The advertised heated pool was empty and the pavement busted up. The sign on the rec. hall said under re-model and my neighbor said it has been for 3 years. The trailer life rating is way over-stated. We moved east the next day to Grants, New Mexico for half the price and none of the grief. On this website I have reviewed a few locations as a 9/10,many as a 7/8, some as a 3/4/5/6,but none as a 2.

The park is great. The manager is terrible. We had a group of 5 RV's in our club. When one
of our group registered, she agreed to the unreasonable pet rules and said she was in a hurry. After she had paid and started in to the park, the manager ran out and very rudely told her she was evicted. This lady is a widowed 74 year old music teacher and church organist. She was very disturbed and confused. When I went to see what was wrong we were all evicted without cause including a visit from Gallup Police who told us this happens all the time. Totally ruined our outing (550 miles) from home. We had to camp at Walmart that night.

Nice clean park but their list of pet rules and restrictions which you must sign makes me wonder why they even allow pets. God forbid if your dog has an accident on the way to the pet area. Also, I appreciate park security but sometimes it can get a bit ridiculous. After checking in and paying, we advised the office staff we were going to a local store before hooking up. We were gone 15 minutes at the most and when we returned we drove extremely slow by the office enroute to our site. As we were slowly driving towards our site we noticed an unmarked vehicle speed thru the park coming right at us head on blocking our path, he pulled right up to our bumper and jumped out of his car as though we were trying to rip something off. We showed him our receipt and he let us continue without an apology or anything. As we pulled into our site I saw the office clerk walking hurriedly toward our site with a threatening look on her face. When she saw the security guy drive off she returned to the office. I thought this was all a bit much and quite intimidating. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Campground is basically a large gravel parking lot in an urban area. Not much distance between sites. A very few small trees, but it is NM after all. Located next to the airport, so we were awakened in the morning by airplanes taking off just over our heads. On the positive side, it had very clean showers and a nice laundry room, pool, and outdoor canteen area that served breakfast. Nice, medium-sized camp store. A big family restaurant is located next door. An OK site for an overnight or to take daytrips from, and there are not a lot of other parks to choose from in the area.

This is one of the most pristine campgrounds you will ever find. There is a nice pet area
on the grounds but hardly anyone uses it... Most opt to go thru one of the many openings provided in the wall into open country. One of the best pet sites we have ever been to. They do have an onerous pet restriction that must be signed, but the net of it is that if a pet owner does what they are suppose to do its a non issue... and the content is no different that most other campground pet restrictions..

In the wee hours of the morning, my wife was treated like a criminal by someone who may have been the owner, an employee, or just someone who snuck in. The rules say that pets are allowed, but you will be well advised to bring no pet larger than a canary, and be sure to keep it quiet. Don't try to walk your pet to the pet walk area. Carry it in a brown paper bag. It has taken me a year to sufficiently put the bad experience behind us to write about it. (There's more to the story, and it's not pretty.) If we are stuck in Gallup overnight, I suspect we'd have a better night of it in a parking lot downtown. We will never, ever return to this campground, and it has soured us on all KOAs everywhere. KOA-Corporate's answer was to "buck" our complaint to the local owner, who (naturally) didn't respond. According to rumour, this is no longer a KOA. That makes no difference to us. Maybe KOA cancelled the franchise, but we won't return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
