Taos Monte Bello RV Park

I found this place as the sun was setting (I had a tent to set up). The man who ran the park was incredibly accommodating and sweet. It is mainly an RV park, there were only 3 tent sites and I was the only one. The tent sites are under wooden structures, almost like an open barn stall. Great for helping to keep out rain and feeling a bit more private and protected. The facilities are amazing: 2 FULL bathrooms with a big hot shower, laundry, WiFi, a lounge, a little store. I felt safe and comfortable. For about $ 20 a night, this really can’t be beat. The sunset/​sunrise view is BEAUTIFUL as well.

We are full-​time RV’rs and frequent as many as 40 to 60 campgrounds a year of all types… without a doubt this campground receives high marks across the board.
There are I believe 19 or 20 sites at this location, it is perched atop a small knoll which positions itself for absolutely remarkable sunsets. The camp hosts and the owner are incredibly friendly and extremely helpful not only during the registration and set up process but also directing where to go in Taos for great food, entertainment and sightseeing.
The main building houses the registration, a well-​stocked convenience store, the laundry and the showers. The bathrooms are absolutely flawless, extremely clean and just what is needed when you want a hot shower.
The laundry area is similarly clean with sofas and reading material. I would only add though that perhaps a second washer and dryer would be nice so as not to take so long doing the laundry (my six-​year-​old son can generate a lot of laundry LOL). They only charge a $ 1.25 to wash and same to dry.
All of the spaces at this location are pull through and all but three sites have full hookups. We are in site five which does not have a sewer connection nor does number six or number seven but in all honesty when we return to this location we will likely select one of those three sites as it positions your RV for some rather spectacular views of the sunset.
There is an entertainment area at the center of the park with barbecue grills, tables and lounge chairs and is a comfortable place to relax, barbecue and enjoy the evening.
For us the Wi-​Fi was nearly perfect, not many RV parks have as good and as reliable Wi-​Fi as this park does. It does slow down slightly in the evenings but over all we remained connected and it was nice to not have to use our Verizon hotspots.
There is good spacing between the RVs and overall would give this park a 10 out of 10. The owner or owners are very proud of their park and it shows, do not hesitate to make a reservation for this location it will be time well spent.

If only all of the small RV parks in the West were as nice as this one! Immaculate bathrooms and laundry room. Decent general store. Good wifi coverage with minimal packet loss (outside of peak times of course). Very friendly and helpful owners and host. AT&T LTE coverage. Ten minutes from everything you want to see. Downsides: very windy at times (as expected in the mountain West). Small playground and no pool.

when we arrived in Taos looking for a campsite and stumbled upon this wonderful place, the owner escorted us to the site to see if it was what we wanted. For $ 22 we pitched a tent and parked our truck camper in this clean, immaculately kept place. The owners are clearly proud of their business, kind and very personable.

Stumbled on this place by accident. What a find! The beauty of the surroundings is beyond words. Nestled in amount mountains that change color with every passing cloud, sunrise and sunset, I It is a small RV park with only 19 slots. They are roomy and well thought out. The main building has a small convenience store, a male and female bathroom and a laundry room. There is only one bath for males and one for females. But only having one has not seemed to be a problem.
One toilet, one shower. But the best RV bathrooms I have seen. The room are large and you can do anything you need to do in there. The owners are pleasant and helpful (we were stuck for two of our four days because of food poisoning and they offered to go to the store for us). There is one washer and one dryer. only $ 1.00 for each. Everything is clean and the grounds are well maintained. John is retired military and they decided this park would give them something to do. He cleared a path that is a mile semi-​circle out into the scrub. My dog and I have walked it several times. When you get to the half-​mile point, take a deep breath and stop and look around. The peacefullness and tranquility, along with the beauty will leave you feeling serene and relaxed. The location is central to most of the activities and Taos is small enough it really doesn’t matter. I would love to come back to this area. Could spend two weeks just sitting here and enjoying the view. Very quiet at night and far enough out you can see the stars very clearly!

My daughter and I chose to camp here when we visited Taos. We thought we would spend a night or two as we toured Taos’ galleries and the Taos Pueblo. Due to the highly welcoming nature of the park’s owner, John, as well as the park’s manager, Bobby, we ended up spending 4 nights there!
They were both very warm and hospitable, giving us local’s tips and hints to catch local events. We made it part of our routine to hang out with them in the mornings!
The park itself has spotless bathrooms, with spacious showers, as well as a coin-​operated washer-​and-​dryer. Since we were camping and occasionally the wind would blow hard, we were happy they had constructed a 3.5-sided fenced wind break for each of the 4 campsites.
If you’re near Taos and want to spend a night or more, I fully recommend Monte Bello whether you’re camping or in an RV!

Fabulous, good people. Clean, spacious, well light, best ever bath and rest rooms. Only negative is the restroom is one person at a time. Has not been a problem, but could be inconvenient. Convenient to the Historic Area. Good brew house just down he road.
