Camp Chima
I loved camping here! Jimmy brought us firewood and was so kind! The stars were beautiful as well!

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.

Camp Chima
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.

Camp Chima
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!

Camp Chima
Delightful sounds from the stream and the river! Quiet and relaxing. Jimmy was responsive and met me when I arrived so I wouldn't get lost.

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

Overall an okay spot if you’re looking for something between Taos and Santa Fe. It’s literally just a small field next to a road. Biggest disappointment was that the listing said there would be a toilet and there was not. That’s kind of a big deal. We had to use our toddler’s tiny travel potty.

Camp Chima
The road there was a bit rough, but we made it. The host, Martinez, drove his RV to talk to us when we arrived. He was very kind & responsive. There was a sign to the camp ground. There were a lot of stars, so nice to stargaze. Was mostly quiet, with the exception of some animals. Fire pit available and a stream nearby.

I enjoyed my first night so much, I booked another.
I parked right next to the creek and slept like a baby. I saw lots of fireflies and the dark skies are amazing. There’s pretty good cell service there too.

Had such a nice relaxing evening at Mr Martinez’s place that I ended up staying another night. It’s a beautiful property that’s hidden in the cottonwoods off the main highway. So quiet and peaceful next to a stream. For astronomy lovers, the night sky is amazing and we had a little star party.

This was a memorable tent camping experience. Mr. Martínez is friendly and helpful. There was ample room for our tents. The little cinder block fire pit works well for cooking. A classic narrow New Mexico stream runs along one side of the land. We felt safe and the stay was peaceful and quiet. Mr. Martinez also gave us some local firewood which burned nice. Our main destination was el santuario de chimayo. This camp site is close enough that we were able to comfortably walk there in time for the daily outdoor Mass at 11am. I miss you already New Mexico!

Camp Chima was a great find! We wanted something peaceful and full of stars, and Camp Chima delivered. On top of that, Jimmy, the host, was super friendly. He gave us firewood for our enjoyment, plus recommended us to visit The Santuario de Chimayo, which turned out to be a beautiful experience. And did I mention that Camp Chima is right next to a stream?
Definitely five out five stars.
