Open prairie ranch style with 16 sites and mini golf currently have a small railroad going in and extra activities to do for the kids. We are big rig friendly and pet friendly. We provide full hookups including water sewer and electric on all sites. We are slightly off the beaten path but still only about 7 minutes away from Walmart and the quaint town of Edgewood and Moriarty

3. Starseed Sanctuary

6.5mi from Rio Rancho · 1 site · Tent, RV

I have oner half acre of land that is open for camping and Air BNB options. The view is amazing, and you can see the Sandia Mountains and the Albuquerque Balloons in the distance. There are neighbors at a distance away which leaves the space private and peaceful. The morning birds are lovely to hear. The sunsets vary each day with vibrant colors and the sunsets are just and grand. Fires are okay if the wind is low or in a contained area. There is wildlife such as owls, crows, hawks, squirrels, chipmunks, deer, badgers, snakes, coyotes and more. The property is not fenced in so you do not want to leave any food out at night if sleeping in a tent. I live a short distance away and I am available if you need anything. The entrance is on Jupiter and Torcido, and that will take you to Venus. Once on Venus, that road will wind around to the camp site. Park anywhere you would like. No human traffic goes through that area. Pick a spot and enjoy! There may or may not be other campers, but so far, it has been pretty quiet around here. Water refill station is not far and available for public use. You will have to sign up for a city water account to fill water. That is free to sign up, and you do not have to be a local. Anyone can do this. The water is one cent per gallon.

The little creek that runs through the camp makes the most peaceful sound.

Easy pull through parking spot just off the highway. Bit of a bumpy road to get there but clear instructions from host.

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!

The campground itself is good. There's a nice walking route and path for the dogs, but the road coming is is tough with a camper, so be prepared for a bumpy entrance. Very friendly greeting! It we felt safe here as well but didn't do any expressions because the weather was bad. Overall, we'd stop here again. Looking forward to seeing how they develop it.

Absolutely loved our RV camping experience here! It was incredibly peaceful. Check-in was a breeze, and Joseph was exceptionally responsive and helpful, guiding us through the process. The site was perfect – all the hookups (water, electricity, sewer) were conveniently located and worked flawlessly. The mountain views were stunning, and despite being near the main road, it was surprisingly quiet. Everything was clean and well-maintained. We'll definitely be back!"

Joseph’s site was very conveniently located next to the highway for easy access, but also super quiet and peaceful at the same time. Joseph was a gracious and helpful host getting us set up, and would definitely recommend staying here if you’re passing through and need a nice peaceful spot to stay!

This RV spot was super convenient and easy to use for the night on our cross country trip. We pulled in after dark, the park was quiet and well kept. You can see the i40 in the distance but couldn’t hear it. The pull through site was level and clean. The electric plug in was great. I would definitely recommend and come back!

It's a quiet place on a beautiful plot of land. We enjoyed walking the dog on the dirt roads. The highway is nearby but it wasn't loud at all. The sunsets were stunning.
