Casita Grande is a spacious 2 bedroom stand alone unit on this small hobby farm. Great for a comfortable stay while being away the business of the city.

Tres Caballos

Locals consider this property one of the best secrets of the valley. The main house is an old adobe built sometime in the '30s, added on to over the years. Joe Augustine raised his family as well as race horses here and it is often referred as the old Augustine place. 
Things I love about this place; a landscape in every direction, all the mountains that create the Mesilla Valley are visible, the way the light changes, the sound of the train, how quiet and peaceful it is, watching the crops grow and change, the very dark nights. It is an amazingly healing space to be, it kinda sucks the hustle right out of you allowing space for expansion.  Come be still and listen.
Access to the river and mountains is easy, day trips abound, and town is close enough but not too close.
Ask me about an Artist Retreat beginner or masterclasses availableLearn more about this land:Welcome to dark star filled nights and birdsong days. This is your Gateway to all that southern new Mexico has to offer and it's a lot! Your Casita is a very well appointed two bedroom two bathroom, full kitchen, dining area and living room. All with a retro/boho feel, mid century modern meets vintage finds. The vistas are always enchanting and can be enjoyed from either of the covered porches, or out by the stock tank pond, you will have a front row seat to the Dona Ana and Organ Mountains, and probably a couple of exotic horses grazing in the pasture, just because!We have Parks, Monuments, public lands all for the hikers, foodies will delight in the many restaurants, food trucks, brew pubs and distilleries. Arts and culture abound also with a variety of museums, art galleries, theater and fiestas.And yet the farm feels remote, a slice of solitude, it is the perfect gateway to the world and the perfect place to come home to. 

Converted chicken coop is now a she-shed where you can relax, enjoy some wine, and read a book.

We absolutely loved White Sands National Monument, which is not too far away.

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!

Beautiful scenery! Train tracks on other side of the river. Topped the cake for the evening!

We rented the quad and tandem floats to float the river. Perfect for family of 5
