2 nights at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

I had a lovely time here. The amenities were very nice and well taken care of. Everyone I met was very kind and helpful. I really like the vibe of the whole place and the kind of culture they have cultivated there.

8 nights at Little Canyon

I loved staying here! What the other reviews say about this being a beautiful soundscape is true. The bird song was superb. I had peace and quiet for what was a personally difficult week. It felt wonderfully sheltered in the canyon and with trees dividing up the space. I am very appreciative to have this as an option for camping instead of going to an airbnb or hotel! Thank you!

1 night at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

This place is magic ✨ Ciana and John were very nice and informative. They have everything you need. Good vibes and gorgeous surroundings.

4 nights at Heaven or Taos 🪐

This is a great spot to land for a few nights! Kelly and Eddy are very kind and welcoming. They are very well versed about the area and readily share hiking and food recs. I highly recommend this little piece of heaven.

Weekend Trip to Creekside Glamping Tipis on Off-Grid, 70 Acre Working Ranch

We loved it! The hosts are great, the place is very lovely. We really had a great time.

Weekend Trip to Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Santa Fe Treehouse Camp has welcoming, helpful staff. The shared kitchen made it super easy to stay because all cooking utensils were provided. I loved sitting in the cozy kitchen nook, watching all the hummingbirds come to the feeder. Excellent showers, and even a place to charge my phone in the kitchen! There are multiple lovely trails for hiking and even an ice cold creek that my dog loved. I'd highly recommend Treehouse Camp for a quick get away from Santa Fe.

Weekend Trip to Travel Queen Camper / Parking Spot

Host is extremely responsive, polite and offers helpful information about the area. Within walking distance to a ton of cool places to eat, drink etc. Very good experience and will book again.

5 nights at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

I can't say enough good things about the Santa Fe Treehouse camp and Ciana and Brad's hospitality! Surrounded by beauty, the site is well-kept with loving details added throughout. The Sunrise cabin is spacious and comfortable, the shared bathhouse and communal kitchen are well-equipped and campers and staff take good care of both. Best of all is the community this camp attracts and Ciana and Brad themselves. My kiddo and I can't wait to come back!

3 nights at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Amazing place! I sadly didn’t get to stay for my whole stay because my plans ended up changing but I will be back! Very quiet and serene. Showers and bathrooms were very very clean!!

1 night at Heaven or Taos 🪐

Kelly and Eddie are wonderful hosts, so kind and caring. Everything is clean and well organized, loved our stay, we will go back!

3 nights at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Beautiful location, quiet and secluded, a great spot to spend a few days. Ciana was a thoughtful and welcoming host! Definitely plan to come back and bring the whole family this time.

Weekend Trip to Jemez Mountains A-Frame Cabin

Perfect cabin getaway! Great location, lovely space to have refreshing beak. Loads to do in the area, but also lovely to just stay put and do nothing.

Weekend Trip to HarmonyTaos Regenerative Farm

We had a great stay at Harmony Farm. The host was very friendly, her property is beautiful and super close to downtown, the bathrooms and showers are immaculate, and the Farm is easy to find. We highly recommend staying here and also taking the host’s guided Farm tour.

Weekend Trip to Juniper Mesa Camp

Kate continues to be just the best host possible! This was my second visit to her yurt and she was so helpful and generous in giving me the best tips for hiking, art browsing, and even river access to cool off on the hot June day! The yurt also continues to be a fantastic place to rest, recharge, center, think. The light in the space is gorgeous and amplified by the pretty cloths Kate has thoughtfully draped around the windows. Also, I used the outdoor shower - fantastic!! Booked my third stay for the fall and I can't wait - thank you Kate!

Weekend Trip to HarmonyTaos Regenerative Farm

The glamping setup was amazing—tucked away in a super private and peaceful part of the property. The sunset views melting into the mountains and the star-filled night sky were nothing short of epic! Thoughtful touches like the wagon to easily haul your gear from the car to the site show just how much care went into creating this space. The shared bathroom and shower? Honestly better than most hotels! The way the light filters through the shower wall is so cool and unique. Incredible host and a truly special desert escape!

Weekend Trip to Jemez Mountains A-Frame Cabin

This is such a beautiful property and A-frame. My friends and I couldn’t stop talking about how happy we were to be there out in the trees & mountains. It is a cozy place with firewood piled high ready to use for the fire pit, benches and a picnic table, and the string lights in the kitchen that added to the already sweet cozy ambiance. So many little touches that added to the experience. Don’t let the outhouse deter you, it has wallpaper if you can believe it and it actually adds to the experience in a way you won’t understand until you stay here! It is truly the best place we’ve ever stayed in Jemez. I am tempted to keep this A-frame to myself but I can’t help tell others about how great it is; it is a hidden gem and I highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience Jemez the best off-grid way possible. We were just 4 best friends looking to grow in our friendship and unplug, playing guitar / singing outside around the fire and then inside up in the loft late into the night. This A-frame served us well. We’ll never forget it.

6 nights at Rancho Algo Mas

The land was beautiful and the hosts were great. All the animals were so cute! It was such a nice big site with a composting toilet. They even left firewood for me. Would highly recommend to anyone.

2 nights at Enchanted Circle Campground (E<<)

This was truly the best campground we have ever stayed at. The sites were private and very well spaced out. Each site has a massive fire ring, lots of different log seats, a grill (with accessories), and a porta john. (Our site had a grill grate that you cook over a fire with, but the other have actual grills). The porta john was clean…like, CLEAN clean! The tank had just been emptied and the seats had recently been wiped down. We bought the sausage and fresh eggs and both were delicious. Our site had a lot of trees, log seats, and other trip hazards, so they have solar lights on every single obstacle that you might run into in the dark. The lights are very dim so as not to mess with your night vision, but bright enough to see as you’re walking through your camp at night. Everything was very well thought out and organized . I cannot wait to come back.

1 night at Juniper Mesa Camp

Such a neat and cozy place to stay! Highly recommend, we hope to be back soon! Kate showed us around and was a lovely host! The bohemian decor in the yurt is such a vibe, we loved it!! Oh and amazing views from the yurt.

1 night at Santa Fe Treehouse Camp

Had a nice quiet site next to national forest. Only stayed one night but it was a nice place to be. Would stay here again

Enchanted Circle Campground (E<<)

13 sites · RVs, Tents161 acres · Angel Fire, NM

The Enchanted Circle Campground sits on the Avalon Ranch. It is 161 owned acres surrounded by a state trust lease. We are very proud to have been voted #1 Campground in NM 4 years in a row and ranked Top 5 by Forbes in the country. We have 8 Sites to choose from. (No large RVs at 4, 7 or 8) Campfires are permitted, and pets are welcome. Free potable water is available as well as a portable toilet. For cooking, you will have a fire pit, with a cast iron grill. Every site (but 7) has a standing charcoal grill, with tongs, a spatula and a grill brush. A fire extinguisher and a shovel. We hang a hand washing jug at every site for your convenience, with potable water, but do not suggest this for drinking water source. The property was originally homesteaded in 1893. It was also the first potato farm in NM. It has seven ground-fed springs that run year-round and is officially the Coyote Creeks Headwaters. The springs converge after filling 4 of our ponds in the marshland where the potatoes were grown. A family of 4 lived in the first dwelling built here, not much larger than a shed. Since that time, 2 homes, 1 of which still stands, a barn, a smokehouse, and 4 other outbuildings were constructed. There are old wagons and farm equipment from the late 1800s and early 1900's still strewn about the ranch. We are home to Huge herds of Elk, mule deer, turkeys, prairie dogs, eagles, black bears, 9 horses, chickens, pigs, goats, our 2 dogs and 4 cats, and the occasional Mountain Lion. We live here year-round. We love our land and want to share it with others. I am a Veteran and our intent is to eventually have a Veterans Retreat facility here. Not a retreat itself, but rather a location for all of the retreats, nationwide, to be able to utilize, so they can use the funds they have to do what they do best. You are helping to make that possible. We do pride ourselves on minimally impacting our land. We strive to keep it clean and as close to nature as we can. And as always, Veterans, LEOs, and Fire Fighters are always free for one night up to 4 guests. Just book your reservation, and show us your ID during your stay, and we will reimburse you for your last night with us.

River Sanctuary by Ojo Hot Springs

4 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents3 acres · La Madera, NM

Learn more about this land: Lush high desert river oasis nestled in a fertile valley in the Carson National Forest right between the fiery expanse of Taos and the rolling colorful formations of Abiquiu. Peaceful and private 3 acres right by the river at the edge of a little quaint town called La Madera (145 people, no shops)- just 6 miles to the healing mineral Hot Springs of Ojo Caliente, a place of emergence or rebirth as known to the local Natives. Right by the river, held by a ridge (that makes for amazing sunset hikes), I have a 16ft Yurt Canvas set up with furnishings (desk, couch, wash stand) and a wooden Queen Bed with down bedding. This site can only be reached by foot across the river via stumps- a car can be parked near by.. approx. 50ft. I also have a Vintage Camper that can be heated, has a kitchen, electricity and plenty of outdoor furniture with a fire pit and serene mountain views. As well as a monastic and very grounding Ensuite Bedroom, or a simple campsite if you want to bring your own camper or tent. All facilities have access to a guest bathroom inside the main house. I offer dog sitting while you soak at Ojo, healing modalities that you'll find in the Extras section, and my dear neighbor Jackie takes appointments for massages with homemade essential oils. +++ 6 miles to Ojo Caliente Hot Springs. There you will find the best restaurant in the area, with locally/organically farmed produce. The land is naturally and beautifully wild- it is not a manicured campsite. The dirt rd down to the property is best suited for higher clearance vehicles, but is manageable for city cars. With land by the river comes the mosquitos- June to August only. They are predominantly active during sunrise and sunset; long loose fitting clothes and a repellent work great. Waterhole, Waterfall and climbing sites near by, as well as Plaza Blanca, Abiquiu, Ghost Ranch and the Taos Gorge are 30 mins drive away. *No cell service in the greater area. WiFi reaches around the house/deck and allows for WiFi Calling: that’s a setting in your phone that enables phone calls & texts beside usual internet access.

We require guests to arrive no later than an hour before sundown (summer 7:30pm - winter 5:00pm) We require this because we are very rural and our sites are not lit to keep our property natural and prevent light pollution for ourselves and our neighbors. In the past we've issued refunds for people who have neglected this rule. We will no longer be doing so in the future.

Jemez Mountains A-Frame Cabin

1 site · Lodging1 acre · Jemez Springs, NM

We are excited to share our little A-frame cabin in the woods! The cabin is quite rustic ( and quite cute). Think of it like glamping -- outhouse, wood burning stove, dirt roads, and beautiful trees and mountains included. To keep the cabin affordable, all guests are responsible for cleaning up the cabin at the end of the stay and making it ready for the next guest. There are no cleaners coming in after you. The cabin is a 432 square foot A-frame in a small mountain community, which is surrounded by the Jemez National Forest. There are a few places to hike right from the front door, and many, many trailheads within a 20 minute drive. Fenton Lake is a short drive away, and the San Antonio Hot Springs is a 2.5 mile hike, bike, or ski away right out the front door for the confident adventurer. Located 1.5 hours from Albuquerque and Santa Fe, a few miles off of NM-4 between the town of Jemez Springs and the Valles Caldera National Preserve. No outdoor fires in the fire pit are permitted at this time.
