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 & 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.
Right by the river, held by a ridge (that makes for amazing sunset hikes), I have a 16ft Yurt Canvas Tent set up with some furnishings (desk, couch, wash stand) and a wooden Queen Bed with bedding. This site can only be reached by foot across the river via stumps- a car can be parked near by.. approx. 50ft.
Guests may use the bathroom in the main house.
+++ 6 miles to Ojo Caliente Hot Springs. There you will find the best restaurant in the area, with locally/organically farmed produce. Very yummy!
The land is naturally & 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.
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 all the way to the river site/or trailer sites and allows for WiFi Calling: that’s a setting in your phone that enables phone calls & texts beside usual internet access.
