2025 Black Canyon Campground

Save to Favorites

Black Canyon Campground is a scenic campground in the heart of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains outside Santa Fe, New Mexico. It is easily accessible through the Hyde Park Road Corridor, which provides ample multiple-use recreation opportunities, like camping, hiking, fishing, and seasonal activities.

Applicants with partners/spouses wanting to host together should apply as separate individuals and provide at least 3 professional references each! This will help better feature each person's unique skills and abilities.

Hosting requires excellent customer service skills, a friendly and patient personality, the willingness and ability to perform daily cleaning and light maintenance, who also love being good stewards of the land. Host positions will be filled with individuals/pairs who own their own accommodation (RV/Camper/Motorhome) to live on site; tents are not permitted. The Host site inside Black Canyon Campground has water and electric utilities hook-ups and telephone / internet service. Cell phone coverage is limited inside the Campground.

A six month commitment is preferred. However, we are willing to discuss a three month commitment.

The host will receive fee-free camping as well as a modest daily stipend. The US Forest Service Enchantment Pass, which provides fee-free day use in New Mexico's National Forests, is also provided to Campground Hosts after their first 24 hours of service.

Note: Pets permitted with proper vaccination documents, and rules apply.

Note: Hosts help manage the recreation.gov reservation management system at this Campground.
