Mission RV Park

This campground met our needs perfectly. The restrooms were spotless, spacious, and modern. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. This was our first visit to Santa Fe and the location was good for us. It was out of the city in a beautiful area and was accessible to the freeway so getting around was not a problem. The park had a bunch of metal artwork and other interesting things. I would recommend it.

We've stayed here twice, once last year and again in May of 2022. Park is ok...in industrial area next to truck trailer lot and almost under I10 freeway overpass. Mostly gravel sites but we had plenty of room in our pull thru and site was mostly level. Seemed to be a lot of permanent residents in back of campground but no issue. Nothing special about park...good for passing thru overnight stay... Young lady at check in had trouble getting my credit card to work, declined twice. I eventually used a different card and all ok. Called card company....Chase...they indicated my card is fine, business just tried swiping when they should have inserted into chip reader. No biggie, maybe lesson for staff for future.

The place is not much more than a slightly glorified mining camp. There seems to be quite a number of permanent residents which is fine. But there seemed to be no requirements on keeping their sites clean - junk piled up on sites, etc. Short term/overnight sights were terribly small. I measured six feet between our slide and the slide of the RV in the site next to us. Sites are dirt (not gravel but dirt). I can imagine what a muddy mess it must be when it rains. There's a junk yard behind the chain-link fence at the back of the park with no effort to screen it. The park advertises as "big rig friendly," but there was a turn I could barely make and I'm not a novice driver. We couldn't wait to hit-the-road the next morning. The pluses: office staff was friendly and the place is well-lighted.

How can an industrial area be called a "quiet country setting" in the Good Sam description of this place? Has a Good Sam representative seen this place recently? Mission RV Park is almost directly under the freeway, has barbed wire on the fences, and is beside a truck trailer yard. The RV park has a nice pool and laundry area, but the park itself is old, tired, and neglected. The young lady at the front desk with the baby was very helpful and friendly and tried to make our stay pleasant. The grumpy older woman at the back desk seemed to truly dislike her job and her customers. Unfortunately, the older woman seems to be in charge. We won't return.

If you are looking for an overnight stay near I 10, this may be a good choice for you. But, presently there is construction that will complicate your exit off of I 10. I 10 is especially bad in this area. The park does not have much appeal as it is located in an industrial area. Shopping will involve a car ride, so I would stock up before you get there. The onsite store is stocked with various snacks. The pull in sites are difficult to enter, even with a small trailer as evidenced by the multiple electric stands being hit and out of order. The pads are dusty dirt and your trailer will feel that every time you walk in or out. They do have a nice dog park that is relatively clean, but there are numerous cats that roam the property especially at night. They do stay open late and the office staff is efficient and pleasant. Laundry and restrooms are old and not very clean. The park is old with very few upgrades or maintenance. But, it would be fine for a night or two.

We stayed here one night the first part of May. Google maps led us to the wrong driveway to begin with. LOL. I guess I didn't have high expectations since I liked the place better than I thought I would. We could see the freeways above the neighborhood. However, we really didn't hear any noise as we expected. The space was dirt, but fine for one night. The bathrooms and showers were extremely clean. Didn't take a shower there so can't rate the water pressure part. The lady who checked us in was very nice. We didn't have a pet so can't rate the dog run. We thought it was a nice little park!

Stayed here for 1 night in May, we were planning to stay 2 or 3 , but the grounds were so bad we just stayed 1. We were traveling in 2 RV's and did get sites next to each other. But boy... it was just a big gravel lot nothing really marked and really just not a very good area. Not really sure how this place has such a high rating with Good Sam. We would rather just stop at a roadside rest for 1 night.

Good sized pull-through site, very level. Park was very clean and fairly easy to access. A little bit of highway noise, but not terrible!

Positives: Roads and spaces were acceptable for our 40' with tow. Price was low with PPA. There are two adjoining dog runs. Water pressure was good. Negatives: For us, there was a very big one . the cable on our site and the two adjoining ones (83, 85, & 87) was the worst we've ever had in any park listing cable as an amenity. They claim to have 25 channels, and I suspect they do on some sites, but our end of the park was pitiful. We gave up and stopped even trying to find something to watch when we discovered the OTA channels had a bunch of very clear channels. What we really wanted to watch, CNN or Fox, wouldn't even come in fussy. We just got a blank screen. When I called the office, they said try an adjacent site. I did with the same miserable results. When I called back, I was told the maintenance man was already gone and there were no complaints from any of the other sites that had checked in. Three sites with messed up cable should have caused concern, but I got the feeling I was given the standard response to their standard complaint from our end of the park. Poor cable was mentioned a number of times in the reviews. I think their cable problem was caused by "bootlegging" cable to distance sites, like ours, with a resulting signal drop. I think they need boosters to get the needed signal to the distant sites. That would explain why some reviews said good cable and some said horrible cable, i.e. sites near the signal source gets good cable and those at the ends of the runs get horrible cable. Other negatives would be the large number of permanents and the general lack of care around those sites. There was way too much dog poop on the ground for the area to be receiving any regular maintenance. They do not allow dogs in the front half of the park, where I also suspect the good cable hides.
