    We've been here twice--last year, also for Memorial Day weekend, and this year. Last year things…read morewere great. We missed the Duck Races, but enjoyed pool, mini-golf, and pickleball. We skipped the food, having brought our own "camping" fare to eat and the kids wouldn't let us miss roasting hot dogs. We got their propane fire pit--I believe it's $25 for the pit and a full tank of propane. Nothing horribly special about it, but we enjoyed sitting around it and cooking hotdogs and marshmallows. There's no wood fire allows for safety reasons, so this made a great 2nd place. The folks there were very nice. They check you in and lead you to your spot and help you get you larger campers in if you need the help. We didn't have to leave the vehicle. The campground was clean and they were on top of all issues right away. They seemed like a group of friends or family taking care of their own property. We had a great time. This year we returned and things seemed more streamlined. Check in was quicker, they checked on us to make sure we were satisfied, everyone was very friendly. The pool was open--while not an Olympic sized pool, there was plenty of room for about a dozen kids and adults to be playing games and splashing around while many more (including myself) sat around the side of the pool in provided lounge chairs. We were told they were bought by a new group, and this group made some positive changes. First they started carrying a new pizza (Hunt Brothers, I think?) and for 12 bucks you get a pizza with as many toppings as you want with no extra charge--only charge is extra cheese. They were made quickly and delivered to our camp site. They also have a breakfast area with standard breakfast fare, as well as a pie/icecream shop in the main office. They have tent camping, Pull-through, Cabins, and big rig RV parking. Anything you need is available on site. They have laundry and showers, water, propane, and of course all the hookups you need. The new business that owns them seems to want to keep what worked and improve what needed improvement. They actually asked us how things were, what we thought about the changes (they knew we were there the previous year) and asked for suggestions on improvements. This wasn't the kind of corporate buyout where they try to streamline and skimp on everything, maximizing profits while running the business into the ground. Either the new owners genuinely care, or they put people in charge that genuinely care, and give them the authority to fix things. The only employee whose name we remember was Deborah, and she was very friendly and really peppy. She also happened to be the female employee mentioned below. The best part was during the duck races (an event we're told they hold on holidays where you can "buy" a numbered rubber ducky to race down the creek with everyone else's--the money goes to local charities--they said this time was the local Humane Society) Deborah was dancing around, quacking and flapping her "wings" getting everyone else involved while cheering on their own ducks. The race may have only lasted a couple of minutes, but it was a blast. You did not have to buy in to watch--and the ducks go fast! We sent our daughter to buy a few and were told they were already sold out! Pickleball was hard to get ahold of this year--the campgrounds weren't full, but there were some larger families that were quicker than us. We were able to get pool easily. They also put on movies outdoors (though covered). While we were there, they were all kid-friendly movies. I only remember one night was Finding Nemo. We plan on checking out one of their large cabins next year with more family.

    Traveling full-time in a 42-foot coach we have stayed in over 400 RV Parks, we stayed here seven…read morenights. (1) Clean, quiet and well-maintained park with great amenities is what you will find here along with a very friendly staff. (2) We live in the age of WIFI technology and there is nothing to stop any RV Park across this country from investing in doing WIFI properly. For some users such as ourselves, WIFI is an important feature and was one of the reasons for our stay here. We were told both by email and phone that each site had a good wifi signal. The wifi in and around our site was just about non-existent. We were in direct sight of two wifi towers, but still couldn't get a decent connection, even at 5am. Other guests we spoke with also had non-existent wifi! We know enough not to count on a good signal over the weekends, but during the weekday there is no excuse. We even had the WIFI-Ranger on our roof with a direct-line-of-sight to their wifi source. (3) Level pads, big coaches need paved or thick gravel pads that are level. We give this park a 5-star rating for having level gravel sites. (4) Maneuverability, some parks have very narrow roads which make backing up and turning very difficult, we found this park to have plenty of room to maneuver. (5) Dust, some parks are so dusty that even after short stays your unit needs a bath, this place is very dusty compared to many other parks, no grass here. (6) Satellite, as you know satellite reception is very hard to receive when you have large trees. If you stay away from the sites with the tall trees to the south you will receive reception. (7) Phone Service, we have AT&T which worked great here. (8) Dog play and potty, plenty of room to walk your dog here, plus there are two fenced-in dog runs. The Bad.... We had a pull-thru site but could not attach our tow car until after we pulled out. Our site was very long but there was not enough room to pull out of our site without having to back up. Maneuverability with a smaller coach and tow car might be possible.

    The best free campsite I've been to, hands down. On BLM land. Beautiful sunsets. Clean outhouses.read more

    Angel Peak Scenic Area was one of the best free campsites I came upon during my cross country road…read moretrip. I found this place by using the app CAMPENDIUM from my phone. I swear Campendium was so useful and helpful to me while along my journey. Whenever I needed a last second or spontaneous place to camp out for the night....Campendium had all the answers and solved all my problems, lol. For all the adventurers out there, I highly recommend downloading this app. It's free to use as well! So yeah I found Angel Peak Scenic Area...and not only was it free to camp for the evening...but the best part of it all was that the area was surrounded by a spectacular background of colorful purple and gray badlands!!! Yeah, just...it was so surprising that this place even existed! Because...it's located in Northwestern New Mexico near a town I had never heard called Bloomfield. But yeah...here was Angel Peak...what a hidden gem! Alright...so to get to the camping area....this was the one slight hindrance about this place...I had to drive a 7 mile dirt road. Okay yeah....the road was bumpy at times. But for my simple midsize car...there were no issues. Well, one other possible problem was that at the end of the road...there weren't many campsites or camp spaces available. It's not like Angel Peak was crowded....there just weren't many spots open and available to camp at. I fortunately found maybe 1 of the last spots around, and this was about 5pm on a Thursday in the middle of the month of September. So, for those who are interested in camping here...I'd recommend to arrive early. Overall, the ambiance here was a Perfect 10! After I found a camping space, got myself settled and set up my tent, I then walked over to the viewpoint and was quite impressed. It's just funny how you never hear of some places, they're so under the radar, and yet here I randomly at the spur of the moment found Angel Peak and was enjoying a terrific sunset immersed among inspiring badlands. You talk about the ideal place to camp out....and then to sit back and appreciate a late summer sunset....it really helped me put things into perspective....and just how much I've traveled to get here at this moment. Lol, alright I'll stop with the deep and intense talk. I'm glad I got a chance to review Angel Peak Scenic Area. This place certainly deserved a spot on Yelp and I'm glad to be the first to do it.
