Private, quiet, and peaceful in a very healthy and happy desert environment. It’s a little tricky to find, but well worth the effort. 4WD for sure, especially if there has been rain in the area. The site had a nice sandy spot that was clear of vegetation, so a tent was perfectly happy and level. We really did enjoy our stay! Thanks for making this available, Mario!

This was such a fun place to stay! The road in can get muddy but our big cars managed it fine. I loved how large the sites were and how family friendly it was. We brought several toddlers but never felt worried about their safety because we could always see them, the stream is fenced off in most places and it’s all flat. Host was wonderful and we can’t wait to come back.

Excellent campsite to give you a wonderfully rural retreat in the hills, with fast and easy access to Albuquerque and all it offers.
Excellent full hook up facilities, flat gravel pad, looks towards the hosts home but far enough away for privacy. And the hosts were super nice and welcoming.
Huge pool / artificial lake you can swim in and beautiful Elks to wonder at. And you can purchase fresh meat from the very ranch on which they were reared.
This is what “Hipcamping” is all about and we would return again, and again, and it will be our go to place if and when we are back in the area.

We loved every minute of our experience there! From the time we arrived until the time we left we felt welcomed, relaxed and comfortable! When asking my kids what their favorite thing was they said “All of It” and for young kids that says a lot! We will be back!

One thing Jimmy does is provide some firewood. We set up our tent and then enjoyed an evening around a campfire as the sunset. I was a memorable and beautiful evening.
I got a few good looks at the clear night sky and there were many stars! Much more than in the "city" where I live. I only wish I had more time to stay at Camp Chama.

Susan was very responsive and gave great directions for getting there and setting up. We were greeted by 2 friendly Giant Schnauzers and then Dale came out and helped us park at the perfect angle and walk us through the hook ups. We read the reviews and were hoping Dale and Susan had elk meat they were willing to part with, and to our luck, they hadn't run out yet. Dale gave it to us for free. Just kidding. (I told Dale I was gonna say that in my review so I hope he laughs when he reads this... whatever the price I wont say, but I swear its the best meat I ever had IN MY LIFE. IF you are lucky enough to get there when they have some... buy as much as you can!!! WORTH IT!). My children were enamored by their self built pool and all the strategically placed giant rocks. The loved how each rock is numbered so they will know right where it came from if someone moves it. (Kidding again... or am I?) Dale and Susan played along with us to help our kids be mindful and respectful of their beautiful property. Including our little story to help them not get the urge to tamper with rocks and equipment and pets. I love how loving and caring they are with their Elk. I love that they all have names and each one has a personality. Susan and Dale are so personable and friendly that we want to stay friends forever. Haha. They have great stories and wonderful ideas. The water pressure drops a bit about 12am/1am. Make sure you are showered and shaved before that window.

Susan and Dale are exceptional hosts. We had a blast at their camp spot. The kids loved feeding the elk, hanging out with the dogs and riding on the tractor. The view is beautiful and there’s an amazing diving platform. Thanks for making us so welcome and showing us around!

A quiet place. Big beautiful cottonwood trees. Crisp cool water in a small stream. Jimmy provides wood for cooking on a small fire. Did I mention it’s also quiet!

We enjoyed every bit of our short stay at the ranch! Our hosts were so welcoming and the animals on property were a highlight for our son.
We would definitely recommend this lovely spot for anyone looking for a unique and relaxing time!

We were on our way home from the Grand Canyon and needed a place to take a day to rest before making the long drive to Houston. Dale and Susan were an absolute delight and wonderful hosts for our family of five. Our kids loved feeding the elk, playing with the dogs, and swimming in the pond. The area nearby is beautiful and we left feeling refreshed and ready to head home.

It’s like sleeping on a football field secluded in some oak trees. Dogs could roam off leash. Nice place, nice guy.

We spent several nights at the Elk Ranch using it as a base camp of sorts while we spent time visiting family and exploring the Albuquerque and Santa Fe areas. The site was easy to find, convenient, and offers a perfectly peaceful and beautiful view. Communications with Susan prior to our arrival were appreciated and helpful. Once there, Dale and Susan were fantastic hosts - we very much enjoyed and welcomed talking with them - it was as though we knew them forever. Their dogs are the sweetest, too with each stopping by from time to time for some attention.
The Elk were a bonus for us. We learned a lot and were able to take home some meat and jerky. Getting to experience the elk up close was super cool since you don’t often find them roaming our home state.
We would go back again and again as the hospitality won us over. Definitely a 10/10.

Great place for stopover stay. Whether a few days or a week it was pleasant and peaceful.
Great place before the hub bib affair going on in Albuquerque plus competitive prices for full hookup.
Recommend!
