Nestled along New Mexico Highway 38 beneath the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Columbine Campground offers an authentic high-desert retreat — from full-hookup RV pads to cozy cabins and quiet tent sites.
Whether you roll in with a full RV setup or pitch a tent under the stars, we have a spot for you — all with mountain air and quiet evenings.
Spacious pull-through sites with water, electric, and sewer hookups. Perfect for larger rigs — wide roads, no low-hanging branches.
Flat, shaded sites nestled among pines. Each pad includes a fire ring and picnic table — just bring your tent and sense of adventure.
Cozy cabins with wood-burning stoves, sleeping lofts, and private decks overlooking the forest. A step up from camping without leaving it behind.
Columbine Campground sits on the doorstep of some of New Mexico's most scenic country. Hike to alpine lakes, chase wildflowers through meadows, or spend an evening watching the sky turn purple over the Sangre de Cristo range.
Trailheads to high-country passes and ancient forest loops start just minutes from your site.
High desert skies with minimal light pollution — the Milky Way is visible to the naked eye on clear nights.
Short drive to Taos Plaza, Taos Ski Valley, and the world-renowned art scene — all within easy reach.
Plenty of room for kids to roam, fire pits for s'mores, and a laid-back atmosphere that suits every pace.
Columbine Campground sits along New Mexico Highway 38, where the high desert gives way to pine-covered slopes of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. The columbine — New Mexico's state flower — grows wild in the meadows around here, and it's a fitting namesake for a place that celebrates the raw beauty of the landscape.
We've built this campground for people who want the real thing: crisp mountain air, crackling firelight, and the kind of quiet that only comes at 7,200 feet. No crowds, no fuss — just a solid place to park, pitch, or park your cabin and let the mountains do the work.
Call us to check availability, ask about cabin setups, or plan your route. We're right off Highway 38 — easy to find, hard to forget.
