Brad and Ciana welcome you to the Santa Fe Treehouse Camp & Wilderness Preserve, managed by The Wilderness Institute.
The camp was founded 40 years ago as a summer camp for kids. We continue to offer camps for children and their parents and grandparents (family camps), as well as welcome adults and other groups to enjoy the vast and wild high desert nature up on this ridge.
"BE A CAMPER CONSERVATIONIST"!
Register for our nature education activities and resources lead by The Wilderness Institute (available for all of our guests). These topics include sustainability, recycling, composting, water conservation, wildfire prevention, outdoor safety, and nature awareness along with the use of our hiking trails.
You can also join an archery class, tomahawk throwing, climbing on the mobile climbing wall, Yoga, Tai Chi, Climbing Into The Heart of the Mother Tree, Star talks and more! (https://wildernessinstitute.org/outdoor-programs/)
There are beautiful views and access to Shaggy Peak, the southernmost tip of the Rocky Mountains and the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range. Wander our land to enjoy various level hiking trails including a 20 minute hike to a creek and waterfall in the forest (some steep spots and creek is intermittent) or climb up Shaggy Peak (seasoned hikers only please).
IMPORTANT: We are up 1.3 miles of dirt road (with 5-7+% grade in a few short stretches) and are not near public transportation so you will need your own vehicle! Be aware that the roads can be snowy, icy or muddy and rutted ( 4-wheel or All-trak recommended in certain times of year). We don’t guarantee the road will be plowed.
We generally close for the season due to cold weather around Halloween and reopen just before Memorial Day.
This is a non-smoking, no candle facility.

Weekend Trip to Juniper Mesa Camp
I had a wonderful stay. The place was clean, comfortable, and the service was excellent. The host was very kind and made me feel welcome throughout my visit. My only suggestion for improvement would be to add air conditioning or improve the ventilation, as it got a bit warm at times. Other than that, everything was great, and I would definitely recommend staying here.

Kate’s yurt was such a fun stop. I wish we had two nights now! We came in around sunset and the views from the spot were so beautiful. The yurt is fantastic. There is a camping stove (we used it for coffee and heated up some bagged beans for nachos), plates, cutlery, and cups, a hand washing basin, a berkee.. it’s like fancy camping.
Although we didn’t need to use the shower, it looked like a fun setup. The outhouse was clean and innovative yet simple.
I’d recommend the yurt when it’s not so hot. We had a battery fan we ended up getting out of the truck to get some air flow. There are windows on the yurt you can roll up, too.
We also had our dog, he loved it.
Highly recommend! Oh and Kate’s directions were flawless. We have an older Tacoma, but any car can make it up the hill.

1 night at Sunny Mellow Eco Villa
We immediately regretted not staying more than one night! There was so much to explore and enjoy in one small lovely area. Our yurt had every amenity- its own outdoor kitchen with fridge and freezer, our own bathroom, star-gazing spot, grill, lots of trees and privacy, many birds- turns out it’s a prime birding spot. There’s also a swing, massage table, outdoor cold shower, sauna, vineyard, and more, plus many spots to sit and relax in sun or shade and enjoy peaceful dessert sounds. Short drive from nice hikes, coffee shop, and great thrift stores! Greg is a wonderful welcoming host and an amazing creator who built everything himself! I’d return to New Mexico just to stay here again :) thank you guys!

3 nights at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp & Wilderness Preserve
It was lovely to stay in the yurt. We were two adults, a teenager and a toddler and it was comfortable to have three beds to comfortably accommodate all (and also have a heater for cold nights). Lovely flat walks around the campground and into the forest. The host and care taker were friendly. Very convenient to have the well equipped kitchen with stove, oven, toaster oven, etc. when with children. Only 25 minutes away from convenient stores (like Trader Joe), yet camping in nature.

Where do I start? This trip was so amazing! The landscape was absolutely pristine and the yurt was everything I needed for spending quality time with teen boys and daughter. There were creeks, fishing, cornhole, bikes, horses and that was just the surface of all the things we experienced. And the stars were phenomenal to top it off. Deborah was so kind, hospitable and willing to help make our stay as wonderful as possible. On last day, we stoped at their restaurant, Chili Dept Line depot, and had amazing food and pie. This trip absolutely one of the best travel experiences I have shared with my kids. This is definitely a destination you have to experience for yourself!
