Rio Chama RV Park

Chama lies just south of the Colorado border, about two hours' drive north of Santa Fe and a similar distance to the southeast of Durango. While outsiders have heard of it, many Americans have seen it in films like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, and Bite the Bullet. The town was once a stop on the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad, which had a spur line running between Durango and Alamosa, Colorado. Today that heritage lives on through the Combres and Toltec Scenic Railway, one of Chama’s most popular attractions.

However, most of the visitors coming to Chama are there to enjoy nature and avoid the big crowds found at more well-known tourist destinations. If you’re someone that likes to get off the beaten path, getting a campsite at Rio Chama RV Park will be the ideal vacation. Additionally, all of the sites at Rio Champa come with full hookups. They are spacious enough to accommodate even the largest of RV rentals.

Heron Lake and El Vado Lake are also close by, and both have excellent trout stocks that are sure to please anglers camping in an RV. This is also one of the more pet-friendly campgrounds near Chama, as it has a designated off-leash area for your furry pals to play, and vet services are within walking distance of the park.
