New Mexico Camping Taxes

Having just spent 7 weeks this winter in NM thought it was worthly of note to point out that we paid hotel taxes on the campsites in most cases. One was 15%. This was the first time we ran into this heavy tax in any state.
  • Its the same in Louisiana (or at least parts of it) and I suspect we'll see it in other places as well. They have begun to include RV sites in the same category as hotel rooms when collecting tourist taxes.
