Discover Villanueva State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips

Villanueva State Park is one of the most remote parks in New Mexico, yet it still manages to see countless visitors every year. The 1,700-acre park is in northeast New Mexico, 70 miles east of Albuquerque, and just 40 miles south of Santa Fe. The proximity to these cities contributes to its popularity, attracting campers looking to get away from the fast pace of modern life. This serene campground sits along the Pecos River, sandwiched between sandstone bluffs rich in history. If you rent an RV in San Miguel County to explore Villanueva State Park, keep in mind that the road to the park is narrow and winding, making it a challenge for larger RV rentals.
