Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Juniper Mesa Camp

Kate's place is beautiful, clean, amazing. She is a wonderful host, very responsive and gives very clear instructions to get to her place. Would definitely come back. And most definitely recommend to anyone who doesn't mind being completely off the grid.

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Best camp we’ve ever stayed at. Better than advertised. Very private yet close to everything. The star talk was exceptional. 10 out of 10.

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Had such a great stay. Very clean, everyone was super friendly. The guided hikes were awesome. Dogs loved it!

1 night at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Ciana was friendly when I checked in. Jonathan provided great advice about hiking up to Shaggy Mountain which I did and it’s a fun hike - great views. Campground had a nice bathroom with hot showers, flush toilets. If you’re coming in with a Campervan like me, some sites are level some are not and there’s no dump station. There’s well water spigot by bathroom. Great sunset views as the campground is on a ridge line. I engaged 4x4 but didn’t really need it. The town was out grading the roads so no washboard. Stayed 1 night, would do again.

3 nights at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Beautiful location!! Tent had 2 double beds to sleep on. The accommodations include an open air kitchen with all the amenities of your home's kitchen. All the common areas where clean. The location is near so many interesting places and hiking trails.

1 night at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Stayed at tecolote treehouse. Like being a kid at camp. Hosts were lovely, place is super cool, high up with great views.

1 night at Juniper Mesa Camp

Great space and lovely host! The views are amazing. The space is just what we needed for a quick overnight.

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Nothing but positives, especially the community of campers that this land attracts. Always meeting interesting people in the communal spaces and often exchanging numbers to hopefully meet up again at Treehouse down the road. Brad and Ciana have cultivated a truly unique experience in Santa Fe.

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Santa Fe Treehouse camp was a wonderful spot! The hosts were very welcoming and recommended several good hikes in the area. The amenities were clean and the campground was well set up. It was the perfect spot near Santa Fe but still removed from city life.

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

A beautiful retreat in the mountains - chose here if you want to get away from it all. Ciana is a wonderful host and the evening yoga class was the cherry on the cake. Wish we could have stayed longer than one night!

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Our camping experience here was wonderful! If you are looking for a low stress environment that gives the general vibe of camping but still allows for kitchen and bathroom access, this is the place for you! There was also a beautiful trail that wasn't too long of a hike that we decided to take in the morning. Ciana was extremely kind with our check-in and check out and we felt welcome the moment we arrived. We will absolutely be coming back. 👍

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Really good camp accommodations! Loved the simple cabins, comfy beds, beautiful mountaintop walks, nice, hot showers, clean bathrooms, and loved the full kitchen w 2 stoves, 2 frigs, 2 of everything, outdoor dining areas, plenty of room and quiet nights. I’m definitely returning w company! Loved it… and, more things: not too far from Santa Fe, and not expensive…😍

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

I would recommend this camp. We liked the Treehouse Camp so much that we stayed an extra 2 nights. Ciana was super friendly. The campground is very clean. The bathrooms were excellent. There are two designated areas for cooking that have shared equipment. We camped in our own tent. However there are furnished cabins, yurts, and tents that can also be rented. Each sight has access to a fire pit which weren't being used due to local fire restrictions. The property has hiking trails, a climbing wall, and other outdoor activities. The camp is about 20 minutes from the tourist areas of Santa Fe.

2 nights at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

This is hands-down one of the best campgrounds I’ve ever stayed at. The location is ideal, with The Santa Fe plaza just 25 minutes away and so many great hiking trails starting right from the campground, including the epic trek to Shaggy Peak. The hosts are wonderful people and take such great care of the property and make it a very special place to relax in the beautiful surroundings. I will definitely be coming back for another visit! Thank you Ciana and Brad for helping to make this such a great visit to Santa Fe!

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

This camp is INCREDIBLE! We stayed in one of the Pegasus Treehouses and it was such a fun experience. The outdoor kitchen setup was such a great community spot and we met some really cool people. Very quiet, very clean, and the most unique camping experience we’ve had! Who wouldn’t want to sleep in a treehouse?! 🤩

1 night at San Pablo Ranch

Beautiful property, and the directions worked just fine even after dark. Would return for sure!

1 night at Javali River Glamping

Everything was PERFECT. From the river to the animals to the attention to play, freedom, relaxation and peaceful setting. This place has it ALL! Payment and reservation was stupid easy to set up. Everything was provided. Aaaaand there was shade, water, FIREFLIES and baby GOATS. Best money my tired city butt has spent in forever.

2 nights at Montezuma Hot Springs Haven

This little site is just very few minutes to the wonderful springs! I arrived a bit late after driving many hours and Katherine was so kind as to allow me to stay in their lovely big tent. Very thankful! It was a pleasure meeting my hosts!! The springs are a real treasure.

2 nights at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Treehouse camp was perfect for us! There were plenty of tent sites available, some more secluded, some closer to base camp. The bathrooms were very clean and the communal cooking area was well stocked. It was also a great place to chit chat with other travellers and get recommendations for what sites to see while we are here. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others!

1 night at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Ciana was a very helpful and gracious host and went to extra lengths to make my stay comfortable. Easy to coordinate and communicate with. Definitely recommend

Rancho Algo Mas

1 site · RV, Tent7 acres · Ohkay Owingeh, NM

This land was previously undeveloped when we bought it in 2011, having only been used as horse grazing land and chile production in the 1960s. It is characteristic of inherited irrigated properties in the area and is about 150 ft wide and half a mile long that extends from the traditional irrigation ditch (acequia) at the top of the property to the river drainage. In the 1940s the Chile Line Railroad ran through here on the way to Espanola. Learn more about this land: Nestled in the river valley halfway between Taos and Santa Fe, near the confluence of the Rio Chama and the Rio Grande, this off-grid property is just north of Ohkay Owingeh, where indigenous settlements have existed for many centuries due to rich soil and available ground and surface water. In the 1500s settlers from Mexico came to farm land for New Spain. These historical Spanish and Native influences and identities run deep in this area, as well as the more recent influences of hippie dropout culture in Taos, Ojo Caliente, and Dixon. We have lots of book recommendations if you want to learn more about the complexity of culture and identity in northern New Mexico. Our 5 acres property is a narrow agricultural strip that extends from the irrigation acequia (ditch) at the top of the property down through a dense bosque (forest), ending in a path to the placid river bend of the Rio Grande. The campsites lie midway, among the privacy of the cottonwood bosque and adjacent pond. It is a short walk to a riverside perch with stairs to the shallow water and kayak launch. Other activities on the property include visiting the goats, chickens, and our friendly dogs, playing on the scrap-built playground, swinging on the pond swing, wading in the river, fishing, and doing some beginner kayaking the pond. This property is at its best late Spring through mid Fall when all is green, the pond is full and river is cool. Winter camping is still doable but may include snow, frozen pond, and leafless trees, and sandhill cranes. The site has a nice firepit and we have lots of wood. Summertime means mosquitos so come prepared with some serious sprays or creams- and don't bother with citronella candles, they won't be effective here. You will have a lot of privacy in the bosque, and it is relatively quiet from urban noise. You will be in agricultural and farm country, so you will be amongst the sounds of roosters, sheep, goat, peacocks and horses doing their thing in the farm land all around you. There can be dogs barking so if any of this noise bothers you you will want to bring earplugs.
