Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
The Enchanted Circle Campground sits on the Avalon Ranch. It is 161 owned acres surrounded by a state trust lease. We are very proud to have been voted #1 Campground in NM 4 years in a row and ranked Top 5 by Forbes in the country. We have 8 Sites to choose from. (No large RVs at 4, 7 or 8) Campfires are permitted, and pets are welcome. Free potable water is available as well as a portable toilet. For cooking, you will have a fire pit, with a cast iron grill. Every site has a standing charcoal grill, with tongs, a spatula and a grill brush. A fire extinguisher and a shovel. We hang a hand washing jug at every site for your convenience, with potable water, but do not suggest this for drinking water source. The property was originally homesteaded in 1893. It was also the first potato farm in NM. It has seven ground-fed springs that run year-round and is officially the Coyote Creeks Headwaters. The springs converge after filling 4 of our ponds in the marshland where the potatoes were grown. A family of 4 lived in the first dwelling built here, not much larger than a shed. Since that time, 2 homes, 1 of which still stands, a barn, a smokehouse, and 4 other outbuildings were constructed. There are old wagons and farm equipment from the late 1800s and early 1900's still strewn about the ranch. We are home to Huge herds of Elk, mule deer, turkeys, prairie dogs, eagles, black bears, 9 horses, chickens, pigs, goats, our 2 dogs and 4 cats, and the occasional Mountain Lion. We live here year-round. We love our land and want to share it with others. I am a Veteran and our intent is to eventually have a Veterans Retreat facility here. Not a retreat itself, but rather a location for all of the retreats, nationwide, to be able to utilize, so they can use the funds they have to do what they do best. You are helping to make that possible. We do pride ourselves on minimally impacting our land. We strive to keep it clean and as close to nature as we can. And as always, Veterans, LEOs, and Fire Fighters are always free for one night up to 4 guests. Just book your reservation, and show us your ID during your stay, and we will reimburse you for your last night with us.

Site 4 "Lake View" (Old site 1)

100%
(176)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 12 · Vehicles under 18 ft
Site 4 is our smallest and most romantic campsite, with the best view of the ponds, and a wonderful sunset spot. It is not large enough for any camper larger than 14ft due to the trees on the driveway loop. Only pop-ups, class A and teardrops are allowed here. It is best served as a van or tent site. There is a lovely pergola with a table and 4 chairs, near the standing charcoal grill and fire pit. There are plenty of benches, two Adirondack chairs overlooking the cliff and valley, and two hammocks. As always there are grilling tools, a cast iron grill on the fire pit, a shovel, hummingbird and bird feeder, wind chimes, a hand washing jug and trash can. There is a trailhead sign if you’re looking to do some beautiful hiking. This site is closest to the games area.

Site 5 "Valley View" (Old Site 2)

RV/tent site · Sleeps 24 · Vehicles under 45 ft
Site 5 has tons of flat room for tents and all vehicle types, with a large u-shaped drive through. There is a wonderful valley view, and you will probably see the horses daily. This site has a lovely pergola, picnic table, a standing charcoal grill, 2 fire pits with cast iron grill and shovel, grilling tools, 2 hammocks, hand washing jug, hummingbird and bird feeder, wind chimes and strategically positioned solar lights. We love the “secret” Fire pit just over the cliff, perfect for grownups, while the kids make s’mores or are asleep A great site for more than one trailer or RV, easily fitting 3- 45ft RV's with space to spare, or 3 different families and their tents. It is a great companion site for site 6 as well for those Large group gatherings.

Site 7 is urrounded by pine trees with a ton of room for tents and vans. 4wheel drive is suggested during rainy periods. The site itself is easy to manage, with wonderful flat areas, however the short road up to site 7 and 8 IS NOT CUT FOR RVS OR TRAILERS! We will turn you around and send you to the Monte Verde RV Park unfortunately, if we don't have anything else open. This secluded site has a lovely pergola, picnic table in the shade, a huge double fire pit with cast iron grill, standing charcoal grill, grilling tools and shovel, fire extinguisher, plenty of fireside log benches, hand washing water jug, 2 hammocks, humming bird and bird feeders, wind chimes and amenities bag.

(132)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 30 · Vehicles under 45 ft
Site 1 is spot is great for larger groups and RVs. (This is our old site #5.) This site is intended for multiple RVs or large groups with multiple vehicles. It sits in the middle of a large open area, surrounded by Big Views of the surrounding mountains, great stars, and a few big trees. This is one of our 2 Stargazer Sites and is a favorite for the larger RVs. There is a lovely pergola, picnic table, 2 hammocks, log benches around a big fire pit with cast iron grill, standing charcoal grill, shovel and grill tools, hand washing jug, hummingbird and bird feeders, wind chimes, trash can, and strategically placed solar lights. Our horses will pass by at least once a day if you have any extra apples or carrots and you want to make friends. If you have more than 20 people in your group we strongly suggest booking 1 and 2 together (or 5 and 6] and spreading out.

Site 8 "Cliffs"

99%
(60)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 12 · Vehicles under 12 ft
Site 8 is the most private site we have. Located on the cliff above the sweat lodge. You can explore the epic rocks around this site and find all sorts of cool things… and one of the locations from Amazon’s “Outer Range”. Absolutely NO LARGE RVS OR TRAILERS. This is a tent, van, small pop-up or class C only. We strongly recommend 4WD during rainy periods. The road going up to Sites 7 and 8 was not cut for RVs and trailers. We will turn you around and send you to the Monte Verde RV Park. There is no pull through driveway at the site and limited parking. This site has a lot of tent space and sunshine, surrounded by trees and cliffs. There is a lovely pergola (standard with grill tools, fire extinguisher, hand washing water jug, and amenities bag) a picnic table, log benches, a huge fire pit with cast iron grill and shovel, a standing grill, 2 hammocks, hummingbird feeder, bird feeder and wind chimes. As always we have solar lights strategically placed at tripping hazards and trees. Also a good site if you’re bringing dogs that might be scared of horses, they don’t go up there much.

Site 3 “The Ridge"

98%
(55)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 20 · Vehicles under 45 ft
Site 3 sits atop the Ridge and overlooks everything. Wonderful stargazing and sunset spot. One of the spots used by Amazon Prime for the show "Outer Range". It is a mixture of all of the sites and is great for Large groups, or cozy couples. Great for all vehicle types and tents, capable of fitting 3 or 4 large RVs and is a great location for larger groups. Across the road from the games area, and the first site past the water fill station. You have an excellent sunset and star gazing spot, with a great amount of privacy from the road. There is a lovely pergola with picnic table, grilling tools, cast iron grill in a double fire pit, shovel for the fire, standing charcoal grill, 1 hammock, log benches, hand washing jug, trash can, hummingbird and bird feeder, wind chimes and strategically placed solar lights. A few seasoned ECC; vets have dubbed it the 'Best Spot', we honestly still can't decide though... They are each so unique and present a different experience overall. We encourage you to try them all!

Site 7 "The Pines"
The camp is in a beautiful location with its sites spread out well. The site we were in had a beautiful view, cooking supplies, and an enormous fire pit. I particularly loved that there was a bird feeder and a hummingbird feeder at our campsite. We saw dozens of hummingbirds, Stellers jays, black headed grosbeaks, beautiful gray and orange house wrens, and sociable chipmunks. Very peaceful and relaxing.

Site 2 "Star Gazer 2"
This forested camp ground/farm is always a favorite! We stayed here for our second time this summer. If you are tent camping site 1 and 2 are on the flat open land and seem to he very windy in the afternoons, so RV or camper camping would be more comfortable. The other sites are higher up in forested land with much of the wind blocked. There is plenty for kids to do, it is peaceful for relaxation, and easy to camp on with their delicious well water and clean portable toilets. I would recommend this camp ground for all ages!

Site 4 "Lake View" (Old site 1)
We had a wonderful stay at Enchanted Circle Campground! We booked Site 4, which had beautiful views and overlooked the pond. The campground felt peaceful, private, and cool in the evenings—especially nice after spending hot, dry days exploring Taos. The campground has great amenities, including a volleyball court, footballs, a beautiful fire pit area (at each site), fresh water, dumpsters near the entrance, and helpful site items like a shovel and water. The toilet was a little uphill, but still manageable. This is a great base camp for exploring the area, with Angel Fire only about 10 minutes away and Taos about an hour away. We really enjoyed the location and would absolutely stay here again. My only small suggestion would be a spring cleanup around the private residence area you pass on the way in. Overall, we had a great experience and highly recommend it!

Site 3 “The Ridge"
We truly had an enchanting experience at Enchanted circle! We stayed in campsite three the ridge and felt like we had the entire place to ourselves. We were greeted by friendly pigs at the water stop and then by many hummingbirds who loved the full feeder at our site. We were visited by beautiful horses. And somehow magical fairies lit up our campsite and the field around us at night. Landon and Kendra were very communicative before and during our stay. It was a seamless no contact check in. Although we never saw them, we felt certain that if we had any concerns we would’ve been taken care of. If we had more time we would’ve extended our stay because it truly was a magical experience.

Incredible spot. Amazing setup! Easy to see why they are top 5 sites every year in the entire country! Loved looking down at the ground hogs in the meadow below. Super grateful for the owners lending me a generator in a pinch last night! One note to those in a RV or van, you will need to level out your vehicle w jacks or rocks there or blocks. I did notice site 6 was a good bit more level if you see that one available.

Beautiful and very accommodating campground! The peaceful setting, breathtaking night sky views, and well-maintained campsites made for a perfect weekend getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. We loved the complimentary amenities: including water, charcoal grill, grilling utensils, and an over-the-fire grill. Each site even had its own individual well-maintained portable restroom instead of shared facilities. The amazing firepit added the perfect camping ambiance. The location, views, and thoughtful details made this stay truly memorable.

We have been camping for 7 years in our Airstream and have stayed in many gorgeous places. There is something so special about Enchanted Circle Campground. I only left one time in 3 days just to get groceries. It was so incredibly beautiful and peaceful. I hiked the trails with our dogs, sat out at night under the stars and overall just enjoyed nature. It is unlike anywhere else we have camped. This couple works so hard to make this place special and it shows. Every detail down to cooking utensils and a shovel for the fire. Not to leave out an incredibly comfortable hammock at each campsite. Don't miss a stay here. We will be back!

The site is absolutely beautiful and completely secluded. We appreciated all of the extras they provided at the site - water for handwashing, cooking utensils, hammocks, and the firewood we pre-ordered! There is a port-a-potty just at the bottom of the entrance to the site, we were the only ones using it, and it was very clean. The hosts allowed us to take our 21’ Storyteller Overland van up there, and it was a breeze backing into the spot. It was the two most peaceful nights we had on our trip. I’d highly recommend!!

Quiet, private and a convenient basecamp for traveling the enchanted circle. Angel fire is about 4 minutes away. The quaint mountain towns of Eagles Nest and Red River are just another 30ish minutes from there. I was a little put off by the lack of personal interaction over the hipcamp website, but when we arrived, could see they have a busy operation and they do it well.
