This property was once part of the the Ball ranch the famous mason jar canning company. With expanding views in all directions, abundant wildlife and national forest surrounding, this is the place to be to get away from the rush! Breathe in the fresh air at 7200 feet elevation, visit the contenintal divide and the historic Pie Town which is only 12 miles away. Many exciting places to visit Santa Fe is a 3 hour drive and Silver City is about 2.5 hours away. The Cibola and Gil’s national forest surround this property. This is a central place to stay yet is very rural and serene. Learn more about this land: Pitch your tent or park your camper beneath the dark starlit skies in awe inspiring high desert New Mexico.  This is why they call New Mexico the land of enchantment. This property features a fully fenced 19 acres with rolling terrain surround by cedar, juniper and piñon pine trees.  There is magnificent south facing views where you can see for miles and at night the stars seem to touch the ground. The sunrises and sunsets are spectacular with an array of colors that will take a persons breath away. This is a place to unwind from the busy hustle and bustle. You can listen to coyotes howling, owls hooting, and other birds and animals instead of city noise.  We own horses and can even take you on a trail ride.

Site 3 - High Desert Magic
Jennifer was an amazing host. She allowed us to stay at her amazing property with just short notice. It was perfect for our road trip that lead us through the NM area. Her property is as advertised, perfect to let our 2 dogs loose off lease, while star gazing under the night skies. We felt safe and secure, and would highly recommend her to fellow travelers. Thanks Jennifer!!

Lovely Energy Up Here!
My dog Zephyr and I just loved the little piece of paradise Miss Jennifer has carved out for herself to share with us Hipcampers. We felt super safe here ~ had all our needs met from the cute toilet, the generous water spigot, creatively placed solar lights along a rock-lined path, abundance of trees, views, and beauty around and that awesome fire-pit, it totally made my night when my fire ignited 30 minutes after my 48 failed attempts! 😄 The next morning, had the best time chatting her up about The Land and the vision! Thank you so much to her and her super sweet dog family!! Highly recommend.

Everything and more that I was looking for in a site. Description, communication and directions were all very clear. The night sky and views were amazing! Although there is a residence on this land, it was not in view and it felt like we were all by ourselves. A solar shower was ready to go when we arrived and there is the most spectacular outdoor toilet.
