New to Hipcamp, but want to share my beautiful property with others. Located on the bank of the Rio Grande River with access to the river at all times. Property is rustic now, but improvements will continue to be made as time goes on. Come help me develop this beautiful location into the best Hipcamp in New Mexico.
Just 14 miles of the Chile Capital of the World, Hatch, NM, come during chile harvest to take home fresh green chile right out of the field.
21 miles from Las Cruces, where you will find plenty of events and entertainment, should you so desire. Spaceport, America, T or C, White Sands are all within a day's drive, and Fort Selden is just a few miles down the road, as is Blue Moon Bar and Grill.
My dad first came to this property as a farm hand for the elderly couple who owned it. This was in the 1930's. He met my mother, who lived 6 miles down the road, in 1939. She was just 14. Every Sunday he would ride those 6 miles to have supper with her and her family and in 1940, 2 weeks after her 16th birthday, they married. They traveled around before coming back here, buying a small portion of this farm from the elderly owners and farming the rest for them, but in 1953, the man died (his name was Ernest Ward) in the small concrete house I now use for storage, that my dad had built for he and his wife when he first came to work for them. My parents built a home for his widow in Hatch (14 miles) and bought the farm from her. My family has owned it since. I was gone for 31 years, but returned to the land and place I love and plan to stay here till I die!

Explore the trails and watch for birds and wildlife, or take your camera over to the cactus garden for those classic southwestern shots. There’s lots of campgrounds to rest up when the day is over, but you won’t wanna miss the show after the sun goes down. Leasburg Dam has an observatory and for good reason; the night sky out here is second to none and the park often offers Night Sky programs and walks. This is a win-win for those looking for fun and beauty on the water.

The property is ideal for self-contained campers, including larger RVs, who are looking for a simple, serene place to stay. It’s also pet-friendly, with plenty of open space for dogs to stretch their legs.
Located just minutes from I-10 and less than 15 minutes from town, the ranch makes a convenient base for exploring the area, nearby state parks, hiking trails, and unforgettable Southwestern sunsets.
Please note this is a primitive, off-grid site with no potable water, toilets, or hookups (yet), making it best suited for prepared campers who appreciate a true boondocking experience.
Come for the views, stay for the vibe, and leave with memories of desert skies that seem to go on forever.

Larry is a wonderful host and his camping spot is beautiful! Convenient location that was shockingly quiet. The quarry trucks that Larry mentions in the description did start to go by around 6:30am, but we were camping on a weeknight and were grateful for the heads up. Overnight when it counts, all we could hear were distant coyotes. Highly recommend!! Thanks, Larry!

Great spot! Stayed for for a few days with our four dogs. Electric and plumbing was the best we’ve stayed at so far with enough water pressure. Host was very accommodating with fast response times.

I really enjoyed my tour and discussion of the place - including solar, aviation, music, and more. This a fairly remote location featuring open horizons, dark skies, and very quiet. Lawrence and Dina are the nicest of people.

Lawrence & Dina’s Campsite was great. Open space and the amenities were just what we expected. We got there late and left really early but it was wonderful experience. I and my sons watched the stars and I saw two shooting stars. Would definitely recommend camping there. Bathroom was clean and readily accessible from all site. Thanks again Lawrence & Dina.

Lawrence & Dina couldn't be better hosts and have a perfect place to stay. Our site had a picnic table under a tree which was perfect for our morning coffee. We got in too late to see the sunset but loved the sunrise. Beware of choosing the "open directions in app" option. Twice it took us the wrong way. Third time was a charm (and verified using the address). If we're in the area again, we'll definitely stay there again.
Also, if you are heading east in the morning and you like old school yet quirky diners, you have to try The Pit on 292 Cafe just outside Los Cruces for breakfast. Great food and character. A fun way to start your journey.

This was my first Hipcamp stay! I stayed here by myself and had a great experience. Since it was my first time using Hipcamp I had a lot of questions and Larry always gave quick friendly and helpful responses. The Organ mountains are gorgeous. I loved the views I had from this property, which was easy to find with the directions given in the app. It made for a great affordable sleep on my way to White Sands the following day. Definitely recommend.

Such a cool place. The description doesn’t do it justice. Well stocked with everything you need. The owners live nearby in case you have any problems. Very fast to respond & happy to help. Beds were comfy. I didn’t bring my dog but wish I had. It’s set with a doggy door & a small fenced area for them.
We will definitely return.

Very nice little spot in a place otherwise absent of somewhere to stay. Climate was great even at the end of June. Very well kept, clean and hosts couldn't be more welcoming. Beautiful views. Would start again if we're in the area.

My second time in as many weeks staying here. Can't put my finger on it, I'll just go with the New Mexico slogan "Land of Enchantment". It's so easy in and out. Lawrence and Dina are great hosts!
Still loved the sunset, myriad stars at night and awesome north to south first light and daybreak.
As I said in my last stay, if I was just in the vicinity, I would go out of my way to stay here.

We really enjoyed our time here. Although the space wasn’t wide enough to raise our awning much the benefit was shade and protection as the stationary RV on one side and shipping container on the other kept the wind and solar rays down.
It is quiet and during our stay no one else was around. Gorgeous mornings in the valley with partially shaded walks along the canal from our site made the extra 5 minutes to town worth it.
