C7XR7... We work (on the internet) most days, thus we spend a good bit of time in and around the coach, so a beautiful campground with good Verizon coverage, hopefully some views, is a big draw for us.
We are currently transitioning from a 43' diesel pusher to our soon-to-be trailer: a 30' Airstream Intl. Serenity, so we do need to stay in places where a trailer of this size can be relatively easy to fit in.
We enjoy old towns, historic places, old cultures, dramatic scenery, would like to do a little casual fishing. We're not hard-core outdoors people, so we don't engage in long hikes or go to difficult-to-access places.
You're in luck. NM has a lot of "old towns" to enjoy. I too work via remote access so know what you're speaking of. I have property in NM in Questa area (Enchanted circle includes Taos, Angel Fire, Red River and Questa) where we used to keep our 30' Airstream. We sold that an purchased a 33' fifth wheel but that isn't important. What is important is that with a 30' Airstream there are a plethora of places you will be able to stay. My recommendations are as follows;
(1) Albuquerque. Just stay at the KOA in Bernalillo area North of ABQ (yes it is near the highway), they have good wifi and are near most everything in ABQ you might want to see.
(2) Santa Fe. Not sure where to stay but do it. There is Museum hill that will take a good day or more to see. Old Town Santa Fe is a must. Lots to see and do, and eat I might add.
(3) Taos. You can get there from Santa Fe via 2 lane highway or the high road. Many great old towns to see and photos to take along the way either way. There is a KOA in Taos, I never stayed there. You can camp in the Carson NF but there of course won't be any wifi access. I see there is a new trailer park in Questa. I do not know if they have wifi. Lots to see and do around Taos. Take your time, Taos runs on Taos time and you must be relaxed and patient.
(4) Red River. Instead of camping in Questa you may as well head to Red River. They have lots of places to camp and I am sure you can get wifi. This is a very popular area for the Texans each summer. 4 Wheeling, camping, car shows and more happening most of the time.
Ask questions if you have any and I'll try to answer.
