Route 66 RV Resort

For our time in Albuquerque, we stayed at the Route 66 RV Resort.  The resort opened in August, so everything is still very new.  The RV sites are long and wide with a picnic table and fire pit at each site.  The hookups are good and very convenient.  The landscaping has not yet had a chance to grow, so expect it to be flat and open.  Wind in this area for the spring is normal and we had a couple of nights of heavy wind.  There is a rally barn with several gas grills and a large number of tables in a covered area.  They also have a bathroom facility with shower and laundry in the middle of the park that is clean and nice.  The clubhouse has laundry, showers, workout room (3 pieces of cardio equipment), and game room with pool table, shuffle board and large screen TV.

Most of the people staying at the park during our visit were there for only one night as they moved through the area.  The park started to fill a bit towards the end of our stay with ~20 sites occupied.  The resort is right next to the casino, which is a positive for those wanting to walk to the tables or the restaurants.  The main negative for us was the distance from the park to downtown.  The Liberty Gym, where we worked out, was 23 miles from the park.  Old downtown was 18 miles each way.

Overall we rate Route 66 RV Resort a 4/5.  The lack of mature landscaping and distance from the town are the only negatives we have for the park.  We are already planning to come back and stay here for the balloon festival in October.
