We reserved and paid via phone a cabin for the last weekend of May (2018). They guy that did the reservations told us our cabin number and offered to give us the receipt in person. We arrived on time for check-in and got the key to 'our cabin', when we open the door, surprise, it was another family in the cabin! We went back to the office and the receptionist said that this happen a lot, because some people do the reservations trough the phone and others trough the website. What? How irresponsable! He also explained that each cabin have 2 keys and that he keep one of the keys and the cabin occupants get the second key. He didn't understand why this cabin have 3 keys. But the true is that the front desk was so messy, towers of papers everywhere, the guy moved some stuff to get to the other stuff, it's was pretty bad. At the end, he called the owner and he agreed to give us another cabin. It is sad that they are so disorganized because the place outside is pretty and the cabins are not bad. I took a lot of pictures in the cute lake and enjoy the company of some friends that were staying in the campgrounds (trailers area) in front of the lake.

You could not ask for a more beautiful setting. It's a nice campground right on the lake with beautiful views. It has a wonderful restaurant and a small bar. There are cabins and a small motel there as well. The restroom and shower buildings were very clean. This is all In a forest setting. Whether you are just there to tent or you have a large rig, they can accommodate anyone. The fishing is great, the boating is wonderful and the hikes are long and scenic. The only negative thing I have to say (which did not effect my rating) is the check in process. Upon pulling in we stopped at the check-in booth where I was asked my last name then handed a parking pass and told where my site was. Unfortunately I was not informed about the Wi-Fi code nor was I handed a campground map. After I got set up I just made my way down to the main office and gathered everything I needed. I will definitely return next season

This place changed our lives. We drove into the San Isabel National Forest on Memorial Day weekend with our tent, no reservations and no idea where we would be able to stay for the weekend. As we trekked it further into the woods (for almost an hour) with our 2 kids we began thinking we might be in trouble when we stumbled across this little sign and almost missed the turn in. Once inside we found a friendly lady in the office that informed us she just happened to have some spots left but not for long. I think they were around $40/night. We were allowed to chose from any spot along the lake (this is where we started to get excited) with a fire box. After notifying us to put our food in our car so bears wouldn't try to get into our tents we went ventured ahead sure that the prettiest spots would already be taken. Our first view of the lake blew our minds. It's surrounded by mountains on both sides and you can see one of the Spanish Peaks in the background. There are tall trees everywhere and the tent spaces are incredible!! We could not have asked for a better spot and a week later we are still reeling from how lucky we got when we happened upon this park. With our tent right at the edge of the water and a stream running along the side we literally could not have asked for anything more. My 6 year old pulled in his first trout(s) here, my 2 year old sang while sitting on a log looking at the lake. It was truly magical. They had a restaurant with surprisingly good food, a store with anything you could really need in a pinch, clothing if you didn't pack enough, firewood, cabins, fish cleaning station, fishing and tackle items for sale. It was the whole package. The only downside is there were no showers. I was told the City of Trinity owns the park and they were "keeping up the bathrooms" and basically they became a health hazard they were so bad. So they decided to shut them down. We found a solution though!! The owners of the Cuchara Inn (Dani is her name) which is just up the mountain about 20 minutes (along a beautiful drive through the San Isabel forest) offered to let us use their showers in the Inn. She was happy to share them and even asked me to let other people know they are available so problem solved! Not only is Cuchara adorable but the shower was hot and the food at Luke's BBQ was awesome too!! Sooooo overall everything was perfect. Monument Park is a MUST SEE, MUST STOP, MUST DO atleast once. We will never forget our 3 days there. Check out the photos, no explanation needed!

Amazing place, friendly people, beauty abounds!  Comfortable accommodations and the cafe is great. Good fishing.

This is the most awesome RV park we've been in in many, many states. It is right across the street…read morefrom the eagle nest lake state park. We arrived with a serious electrical problem, and Nathan - the owner/manager - promptly helped us by re-wiring temporarily, so we could have air-conditioning and electricity for our two days stay. He then called Albuquerque, New Mexico - which will be passing through after we left this location - and ordered us the electrical component to fix our RV. Because we would be arriving there on a Saturday, he also made arrangements with a mobile RV tech to install that part! Everything you want is at this location; from a wonderful restaurant, to laundry facilities, to conveniently located for the recreation facilities nearby, and a wonderful store. Nathan would not take a penny from us, for helping us!!! I cannot tell you how my wife and I, and dog, appreciated all he did for us, to make our stay just fabulously wonderful!!!! If you could give six stars to this nice place and the wonderful owners, they deserve it!!!

My wife and I arrived at Golden Eagle RV Campground at about 9:15 pm in the evening and I was…read morepleasantly surprised to find a young man by the name of Nate still up waiting for me to arrive. He had me follow him to our site and then continued to help us get situated. I found this to be pretty much the standard as Nate was always helping someone in the campground. We fell in love with Golden Eagle the year before when we met Bruce and Bridgette (Nate's parents) who told us they would be passing the campground on to Nate and Lisa. Sometimes you worry when you get that kind of news. But we found that nothing has changed in the warm and professional atmosphere, and the changes that Nate HAS made to the facilities are awesome. It's a fun and unique place to visit. Always something to do with local vendors showing up on one day with their homemade wares of jewelry, fresh bread, jams and beef jerky and then some really great musicians and singers on another evening. (Take some time to look at their events page.) And don't miss the evening movies. Just prepare to enjoy the fun. One of the nice surprises for me was their Grill where you could enjoy a delicious breakfast, lunch and/or dinner. I started with breakfast and the sausage was the best I had ever eaten - and I'm a Cajun boy. I had a great cheeseburger for lunch and my wife had, she said, one of the best chicken salad sandwiches she had ever had - but were not able to stay for the beef brisket special for that week. Hopefully it will be back when we return. (I believe you can see a copy of their menu on their website, but the specials change weekly.) In any event, we had a great time and will be returning in a few weeks for the balloon launch. I can't really add anything to some of the other nice reviews that give you more detail about the facilities, but Nate and Lisa were great and always accommodating - just good people and a joy to be around. We look forward to seeing them again. Do yourself a favor and spend some time at Golden Eagle RV Campground in Eagle Nest, New Mexico.
